The company has already announced that dozens of sets will be retired in 2024, but there’s no need to brick it: they’ve already released a comprehensive list, giving you plenty of time to pick up any must-haves before they disappear.
This list will be focusing on the sets currently in-stock at Zavvi at the time of writing, including dozens of exclusives you won’t be able to purchase anywhere else. For the comprehensive list of every single set that we’ll be waving goodbye to this year, head over to Brick Fanatics, who will be offering updates as the year progresses.
We will also regularly update this blog when we get wind of any sets that are about to go off the market, but as of August 2024, these are the LEGO kits confirmed to be making their grand exit.
Zavvi Exclusives
Here at Zavvi, we love LEGO, and we love to bring you exclusive sets you won’t find anywhere else – which is why we’re sad to be bidding farewell to the following this year.
First up, the replica of the Atari 2600 console is a must-have for video game obsessives who want to put down their controllers and pick up some bricks. From LEGO Technic, the NASCAR® Next Gen Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is a fantastic construction toy for petrol-heads – and those too young to drive! – who want to bring the thrill of the race into their home.
And before we dive into all things Star Wars, we’re taking a minute to shout out the exclusive R2-D2 collectible model, one of the most sought-after items on site.
Star Wars
The force may be with you now, but it won’t be if you let the year end without picking up these in-demand items before they disappear!
Star Wars sets expiring in 2024 include replicas of the Millennium Falcon and the Emperor’s Throne Room, as well as the collector’s edition Chewbacca.
Marvel and DC
Don’t let your favourite heroes leave before they can save the day! Construction kits of Captain America and Wolverine are making their exits this year, alongside the replica of Cap’s Shield, and from LEGO Art, an Amazing Spider-Man portrait.
Previously announced
On the DC side, several Batman sets are on their way out, and unfortunately, not even the Bat Signal will make them return.
Disney
Last year, Walt Disney Studios celebrated their 100th anniversary – and now we’ve passed that milestone, a lot of the sets they launched to mark the occasion are being retired.
This includes sets linked to their 2023 movie releases – The Little Mermaid,Wish and Peter Pan and Wendy – as well as limited edition kits celebrating a century of animated icons and terrifying movie villains.
Video Game Icons
The biggest icons from Nintendo and SEGA have been immortalised in brick form, but this year marks the last time you’ll be able to relive your vintage video game memories.

Jurassic World
Unfortunately, 65 million years after they first went extinct, another batch of dinosaurs will be making their grand exit in 2024 – but don’t worry, it won’t be because of a giant meteor.
The Jurassic World sets retiring this year are; Velociraptor Escape, Blue & Beta, Giganotosaurus Attack, Dilophosaurus Ambush, Triceratops Research.
Ninjago
Since launching in 2011, Ninjago has become one of LEGO’s flagship brands for younger builders, and it’s easy to see why. I mean, who doesn’t love ninjas?

LEGO Friends and LEGO City
LEGO take pride in unleashing the imaginations of all ages, and for younger creators, there’s no better starting point than the Friends and City brands.
In the LEGO Friends collection, young builders are introduced to the wild world of Heartlake City, where they can be whisked everywhere from an igloo holiday to a Mars space base and everywhere in-between – what other collection can feature intergalactic adventures and a hot dog food truck?
The LEGO City collection gives you a chance to build your own metropolis from the ground up. Could your city be complete without the following sets?
