retiring lego sets

Last year, we told you all about the LEGO sets that were retiring in 2021, and as heartbroken as we all were to see some of our beloved sets get pulled, we now need to steel ourselves as we take a look at which sets will LEGO retire 2022? Be prepared, there's a lot to cover in today's post, so we'll be throwing them at you thick and fast.

To make you feel better, though, we'll also talk a little about our lighting kits as a fitting swan song to those LEGO sets that will be retired in 2022. Ready to find out the full list? Then let's get to it!

LEGO Seasonal Sets Retiring In 2022

And, as always, 2022's Lunar New Year, Christmas, and any other seasonal sets will be retired as normal before the next festive season.

A Fitting Tribute

If you've looked over some of your favorite sets today and saw that some you were planning on grabbing are on their way out in 2022, don't worry. You're not alone! There are plenty of us out there begging our partners, parents, friends, and family to let us take our birthday presents early to grab some of our most wanted sets before they leave.

But also, it's important to remember the amazing sets we get just in time too. To help there, why don't you search for our lighting kits in the search bar above? You can see if we have a lighting kit to suit your LEGO set available, and all it takes is a quick search of the set's title or set number to pull up the results.

lego light kit

For us, there's no better way to pay tribute to a departing set we love than with a lighting kit to show just how special that set is to you. And hey, maybe even rub it in the faces of those who didn't get it, you know, if you love being the cat that got the cream...

The point is, you should celebrate when you get your departing set in time, and our lighting kits are the perfect way to do that!
