LEGO Announced for Target Fall Geek-Out 2023

Earlier this morning, it was announced that Target will be having their Fall Geek-Out 2023 where they will have various drops for collectibles including LEGO. Starting next Friday and every subsequent Friday after that from August 25 through September 29, there will be drops from major toy manufacturers and LEGO will having theirs on September 1.

There’s no announcement yet on what we can expect LEGO to release but since it’s a new month, it could be one of their many September releases. LEGO could even shock us by dropping one of their LEGO Ideas x Target sets they have planned. The Viking Village would be a good guess since it was the first LEGO Ideas x Target set that fans voted for.

Build

The build is pretty straightforward. There are three small buildings that you build separately which include the bakery, magic shop, and the blacksmith workshop. The bakery has a little table out front filled with goodies and on the inside, there’s a pretzel on a table. On the walls are spots for a knife and a cleaver. The bakery has a windmill attached to the front of the roof. The chimney uses hinges to get the curved shape. On the inside of it, there’s a little bed for Jayden.
