Best Retiring LEGO Sets You Can Still Snag for True Collectors

by

As a LEGO fan, it’s always a little heartbreaking when a set I love gets retired! It feels like they don’t stay around long enough, and honestly, keeping track of when they’re going to disappear is a real challenge. LEGO doesn’t really announce retirements anymore, so you have to be constantly on the lookout if you want to snag a set before it’s gone for good. It’s a guessing game, really!

We’ve created a list for LEGO builders of sets that LEGO is likely to discontinue soon. It includes popular themes like Star Wars, Harry Potter, and the LEGO Icons collection, so it’s a must-see for serious collectors who don’t want to miss out.

LEGO Star Wars X-Wing Starfighter (75355)


$239.99 | SHOP ON LEGO

As we mentioned, this is the largest LEGO X-Wing ever created, with 1953 pieces, making it a must-have for any list like this. It features an opening cockpit with room for the R2-D2 LEGO droid, and the wings can be easily adjusted between flight and attack positions. It also includes a Luke Skywalker minifigure with updated printing on his arms and legs, reflecting his Rebel pilot uniform.

LEGO Star Wars Ghost & Phantom II (75357)


$159.99 | SHOP ON LEGO

As a huge Star Wars fan and LEGO builder, I was really excited about this set! It’s a two-ship build with almost 1400 pieces, and it’s perfect for recreating those epic battles from the show. You get spring-loaded shooters on both ships, which is awesome. The main ship has a cockpit that fits two minifigures, and you can even remove the front section. It also has a cabin with hatches that open up for more play. The smaller Phantom II shuttle also has a cockpit and a little storage space. Best of all, it comes with five minifigures – General Hera Syndulla, Chopper, Lt. Beyta, Jacen Syndulla, and First Officer Hawkins. It’s a fantastic set for displaying and playing with!

LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle: Potions Class (76431)


$39.99 | SHOP ON LEGO

The Harry Potter LEGO Potions Class set is a detailed recreation of the movie scene, complete with 397 pieces! It truly captures the look and feel of the classroom from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. You’ll find a blackboard with potion recipes, ingredients to mix in the cauldron, and other magical touches. It also includes collectible Hogwarts portraits and minifigures of Professor Snape, Hermione Granger, Pansy Parkinson, and Seamus Finnigan.

LEGO Icons Blacktron Renegade (10355)


$99.99 | SHOP ON LEGO

LEGO recently revived the popular Blacktron sets from the 1980s, and you won’t want to miss out! The LEGO Icons Blacktron Renegade – a detailed spaceship with 1151 pieces – features the original’s unique, uneven shape but with a modern, modular build. It comes with a planetary rover drop pod, landing gear, two wing-mounted speeders, and energy canisters. The set includes three Blacktron minifigures and a droid. Even better, you can rebuild it into an upgraded version of the classic 1980s LEGO Alienator using online instructions, combining vintage and modern LEGO experiences in one set.

LEGO Marvel Infinity Gauntlet (76191)


$79.99 | SHOP ON LEGO

Creating this Infinity Gauntlet is practically guaranteed! This LEGO set is a fantastic way to remember the epic final moments of Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame. It features fingers that move, brightly colored Infinity Stones, and a display tablet attached to a solid base – it’s sure to be a showstopper, inspiring everyone to imagine themselves as cool and heroic as Tony Stark. With 590 pieces, it’s a manageable build that should take just a few hours. It measures 13 inches tall, 6 inches wide, and 5 inches deep.

These LEGO sets are being discontinued soon and will no longer be available. Don’t miss out on the chance to own these collectible items before they’re gone!
