I'm a Lego expert, and these 22 massive Black Friday Lego deals are not to be missed

Save 40% on this fantastic BrickHeadz collection. It includes six builds of iconic characters from The Phantom Menace. You'll get Anakin Skywalker, Queen Amidala, Captain Panaka, Qui-Gon Jinn, Darth Maul, and of course, everyone's favorite Jar-Jar Binks.

Save $35 on this playset featuring a sizeable model of Ahsoka Tano's T-6 Jedi Shuttle. Coming with four minifigures (Ahsoka Tano, Sabine Wren, Professor Huyang and Marrok), it's a great purchase for any young Star Wars fan (or grown-up collector) — and it's the cheapest we've ever seen it.

Save 40% on the Lego Invisible Hand 25th Anniversary set. This is a fantastic saving as this set only released this year, making it one of the newer discounts on this list. It might not be the most iconic of all Star Wars ships, but we think it looks fabulous.

Save $10 on a super cool playset: this Spider Tank has moving limbs and an opening cockpit. It also comes with two minifigures — The Mandalorian and Bo Katan — along with an adorable Grogu. Perhaps not one for arachnophobes, though!

Save 40% on this awesome Star Wars Chewbacca build-and-display set. With 2,319 pieces, the final build is over 18 inches (46 cm) tall, making it the perfect centerpiece for your collection. The model comes with a Chewie minifig, complete with his bowcaster.

Save 20% on this Lego Droideka, one of the coolest-looking droids in the entire franchise. It features 583 pieces and comes with a display plaque and a separate, miniature build of the droid. It can be formed into a ball too, although it doesn't roll as smoothly as it does in the movies.

The discount on this set has just deepened, so make the most of it while it's in stock!

Save 30% on this compact but detail-packed Pirate Snub Fighter set. The ship, based on Disney's Mandalorian series, comes with two minifigures (Vane and a Snub Fighter Pilot) and has working shooters and an opening cockpit. It's direct from Lego, too, which means you'll earn Insiders points on your purchase.

Save 24% on this fun playset based on Disney Plus' Ahsoka series. The minifigures are the main feature here: you'll get five of them, including Ahsoka Tano, Admiral Thrawn, Morgan Elsbeth, Ezra Bridger and a Night Trooper.

Save 20% on a brick-built model of everyone's favorite droid, R2-D2. This is a wonderful and complex build, and as we said in our R2-D2 review, the finished result is phenomenal. This deal is for Lego Insiders only, however, so you'll need to be a member before you can claim it — it's free to join.

Save 40% on not one but three sets. The Space Explorers Pack combines three playsets in one: there's a space shuttle, a construction mech and a space hoverbike. Not quite the most realistic set, then, but a great deal of fun for kids, and comes with some great little minifigs.

Save 31% on this fantastic 2-in-1 set. It combines the Lego Creator 3-in-1 Space Astronaut set and the 3-in-1 Space Shuttle. We absolutely love the Space Astronaut, and since that has an MSRP of $55.99 by itself, this set is an absolute bargain.

Save 20% on one of the best Lego space sets currently available: this is a scale model of the NASA Space Shuttle Discovery, and it also features a buildable Hubble Telescope. When we reviewed the Lego NASA Discovery, we said it wasn't only fun to build, but also 'zenful'.

Save 30% on the fantastic Lego Ideas Tales of the Space Age set. It's one of our favorite space sets, and it's a fun, stress-free build. In our Tales of the Space Age review, we said it "brings Lego and space together so elegantly". It's set to retire soon, too, so this may be your last chance to grab it with a discount.

Save 20% one of our favorite Lego space-themed sets to release in recent years: this Astronaut can be built in one of three different ways, but its default is by far the best. In our Lego Space Astronaut review, we called this "one of the most creative and fun-loving space-themed sets ever".

Save 20% on this Technic recreation of the Mars Rover Perseverance. It's a fantastic set, and in our Lego Perseverance review we called it a 'gorgeous display set for adults, and offers a lot of playability for kids too'. What more can you want from a Lego set?

We love sub $20 Lego sets, and thanks to a 20% saving, this wonderful little playset can be yours for just $15.99. It's a great stocking filler for kids, pacing in two minifigures, an alien figure, a spaceship and an excavation site.

Save 23% on this absolutely fabulous, fun-loving space-themed set that will be a big hit with kids (and big kids). Primarily it can be built into a space roller coaster, but it can also be reassembled into a UFO ride and a rocket launcher.

Undoubtedly the roller coaster is the star of the show, though, with a winding track and plenty of space-themed decorations along the way.

Save 25% on the epic Ultimate Collector's Series Hulkbuster. This isn't for the faint-hearted, being made up of 4,049 pieces. It's huge too, standing at an impressive 21 inches (49cm) tall. It's not a build to tackle if you're not already a seasoned Lego builder, though.

Save 30% off on The Hoopty, the rather unique-shaped ship from The Marvels. There's plenty of interactivity here to make it a great playset, including an opening cockpit, storage space and three great minifigures (and Lego cats!).
