Last Day for BrickLink Designer Program Series 3 Pre-Orders

As of this post, there is less than 19 hours left to get your pre-orders in for the BrickLink Designer Program Series 3 sets. There are only two sets that have hit the 30,000 maximum limit which are the Forest Stronghold and Camping Adventure but there are two that are very close behind. The only set that will probably not hit the max is Lost City but has reached the minimum amount required for it to be produced. This means that there will be a very limited number of this set made and may get a bigger demand on the secondary market.

The Art of Chocolate
Lost City


Harbormaster’s Office – $199.99


The Art of Chocolate – $229.99


Lost City – $289.99

LEGO November 2024 Shopping Guide

We’re only a few days away from November which will be a big LEGO shopping month on the LEGO Shop with all the new releases and upcoming Black Friday promos. Here’s a quick guide on what will be available and we we can expect in a few weeks. As far as new LEGO sets, there’s only a couple but they are big hitters.

For the promotions we know about, the LEGO Ideas Books Are My Passion (40698) will be available starting on October 28 and will run until November 11, while supplies last. For the other big ones, the LEGO Marvel Cerebro (5009015) is available from November 1-7 with the purchase of the X-Mansion and the LEGO Botanical Entrance Gate (5009005) is only available from November 1-7 with the purchase of The Botanical Garden.

For Black Friday, there should be some promos towards the end of the month and Insiders should get early access a week before including some sort of gift with purchase set, sales, extra points on certain sets, etc. We’ll update as soon as LEGO releases the details.

The Botanical Garden (21353) – $329.99

Are the LEGO Tie-In GWPs Out of Control?

Next week, LEGO will be releasing two new gift with purchase sets that ties in to some of their new releases but is LEGO going overboard with these types of promotions? The two in question are the Entrance Gate for The Botanical Garden (21353) and Cerebro for the X-Men: X-Mansion (76294) and including those, there have been I believe five sets are similar that have been released this year which includes the Mimic Dice Box, the Technic P1 Logo, and Fell Beast, Borgin and Burkes: Floo Network, Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber.

From a business perspective, it’s smart for LEGO to tie in certain GWPs with sets they go with since they know fans will buy them. From the buyer’s perspective, it hard to keep up with some of the releases if you’re into those fandoms and there’s a sense of FOMO since there’s only a limited time to get them. If we’re just looking at the six sets above, unless you’re using reward points for discounts, you’re looking at almost $2,800 pre-tax.

We already know that LEGO will most likely continue these types of promotions in the future so it’s inevitable. As more and more sets become more expensive, it’ll be harder to justify these purchases unless the promo sets are proportional to the main sets.
