Every LEGO Icons Set Retiring in 2023, 2024, and 2025

The end of the year is fast approaching and that means time is running out to pick up a large number of sets before they leave shelves for good.

In this article, we provide the retirement dates of all LEGO Icons sets currently on sale, including those exiting in just a few months time.

2023

Around a third of the Icons set currently available will be retiring this year, with a total of 15 leaving shelves.

The biggest surprise from this bunch is the Galaxy Explorer, which was only released in summer last year. Being a 90th Anniversary set, I would have expected this to have stayed around for much longer.

Three modular buildings are also retiring, so if you haven't already added them to your LEGO city, now's the time to do so.

2025

16 sets are provisionally retiring at the end of 2025. Amongst these is the Lion Knights' Castle, so AFOLs with a love of the historical (which let's face it is most of us) will be pleased they have another two years to add this to their collection.

This list also includes the Porsche 911 and Bonsai Tree, which seem like they might stay around forever, having been released back in 2021.
