LEGO Unveils Jango Fett's Starship, New Star Wars Sets Before May the Fourth

LEGO has unveiled an exciting lineup of nine new Star Wars sets, all set to launch on May 1, 2025, as part of Disney's extensive celebration of May the 4th, known affectionately as Star Wars Day. LEGO traditionally marks this occasion with the release of a new Ultimate Collector Series Starship. Following the Luke's X-Wing Starfighter in 2023 and the TIE Interceptor in 2024, this year's highlight is Jango Fett's Firespray Starship, which fans might better recognize as Slave I. This name change, implemented in 2021 at Disney's request (confirmed by LEGO), reflects a move away from potentially sensitive terminology. It appears the new name is here to stay.
