Star Wars Day: Lego Unveils Ultimate Collector Series N-1 Starfighter, Free Darksaber Model with Pre-Order

By

Breaking News: Lego has announced the release of its highly anticipated Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) replica of The Mandalorian's N-1 starfighter, timed to coincide with Star Wars Day on May 4. Early buyers will also receive a free Lego model of the legendary Darksaber, but inventory is limited and expected to sell out quickly.

The Set and the Offer

The new UCS N-1 starfighter — piloted by Din Djarin in the hit Disney+ series — features sleek chrome accents, a detailed cockpit, and landing gear. The free Darksaber model, a buildable replica of the ancient Mandalorian weapon, is available exclusively to customers who pre-order or purchase the set on Star Wars Day.

Lego designer Michael Psiaki called the release 'a dream for fans of the show and collectors of precision spacecraft.' He added, 'The N-1’s clean lines and iconic silhouette made it a perfect candidate for the UCS treatment.'

Background

Lego’s UCS line, launched in 2000, produces large, display-grade models of iconic Star Wars starships. Past UCS sets include the Millennium Falcon and Star Destroyer. The N-1 starfighter first appeared in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace and was revived in The Mandalorian, where Mando upgrades to the modified version.

Industry analyst Rebecca Stone of ToyInsights noted: 'Lego strategically ties UCS releases to fan events like Star Wars Day. Combining the Darksaber — a prop with deep lore — is a smart move to drive urgency.'

What This Means

For collectors, this set represents both a premium build experience and a limited-time bonus. The free Darksaber model could become a sought-after exclusive, especially if it is not sold separately later. Early indicators suggest the N-1 starfighter will retail at $199.99, though official pricing is pending confirmation.

Lego warned that supplies are 'extremely constrained' for the free gift. 'We expect the offer to expire within hours,' a Lego spokesperson said. 'Fans should act fast on May 4.'

How to Get It

Orders open at midnight Pacific Time on May 4 through Lego.com and official Lego stores. There is no limit per household, but only one Darksaber per purchase. International shipping is available, but customs delays may affect delivery.
