Today I continue our exploration of the new LEGO® SMART Play™ System. In my previous blog post I took a look at all the new molds found in the first 8 LEGO® Star Wars™ sets with ‘enhanced play’, and today I'll be testing if the SMART Brick adds any value to the play experience by building 4 of them: 75421 Darth Vader’s TIE Fighter™, 75423 Luke’s Red Five X-wing™, 75424 AT-ST™ Attack on Endor and 75426 Millennium Falcon™.

What are the new LEGO® parts in May 2026 sets?
I've created a list showing the 385 new LEGO® elements within the May 2026 sets, with links to which sets they come in, in case you wish to purchase. UPDATE 7 May: now including set 77984 Jurassic Park Jeep® Wrangler.
Meanwhile, stay tuned for more than 900 new Pick a Brick elements dropping on 11 May! We will publish the list on 5 May so you have time to prepare.

January is always a thrilling time for new moulds, and 2026 does not disappoint! There is much to enjoy including two surprising pieces: the sand blue bird without chest printing (shown above top left) which is not yet in any set, and the grey 4x4 triangular tile with no printing (above centre) which only appears in the May The Fourth set 75442 The Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter™.
