Black Friday / Cyber Monday LEGO® GwP and deals

UPDATE: See the best sets on sale at a glance in the UK, Europe and USA

Black Friday began/begins at midnight 28 November 2025 and the good news is that if you missed out on the two larger Gifts with Purchase (GwP) last week, they're back again! The smaller GwP has been replaced with a rather cool deck of LEGO playing cards, and there's a new LEGO Insiders reward in the shape of 5009626 Fish Tank. The price reductions that began last week continue, and there have also been lower prices on individual bricks at Pick a Brick for a couple of weeks now. 

Note also the LEGO Insiders offer of 1000 points in exchange for just 200! These appear to be limited in number as they are selling out in some countries already.

Review: 10356 Star Trek The Next Generation – U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D from LEGO® Icons

For Black Friday this year, LEGO® Icons goes bold(l)y where no one has gone before. With 10356 Star Trek: The Next Generation: U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D, we get the first LEGO® Star Trek licensed set ever. 

Bringing the Enterprise D seems like the obvious choice, given the popularity of The Next Generation (TNG) among Star Trek fans and overall TV viewers. But it also brings challenges and problems.

Set review: 42210 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34) Car from LEGO® Technic

It’s time to turn the spotlight to the LEGO® Technic 42210 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34) Car. We have already taken a close look at all the new elements in 42210 in our June 2025 Technic wave article, and 42209 Volvo L120 Electric Wheel Loader has been analysed, so let's drift onto the next set and see how those new elements were used in the Nissan Skyline GT-R.

Review: 40864 Fortune Master, 80118 Fortune Firecracker and 80119 Galloping Horses Canvas from LEGO® Spring Festival

Since 2019, LEGO has released sets focused on the Spring Festival, the 15-day celebrations marking the start of the Chinese new year. With the upcoming celebrations for the Year of the Horse running from 17 February to 3 March 2026, three sets come galloping in to commemorate the occasion: 40864 Fortune Master spreads good luck, 80118 Fortune Firecracker starts the year with a bang, and 80119 Galloping Horses Canvas brings success upon arrival of the new year.

Review: LEGO® 40775 Mini Knight's Castle gift with purchase

Following its initial availability over LEGO® Insiders Weekend, the Gift with Purchase (GwP) 40775 Mini Knight's Castle. will return for the Black Friday / Cyber Monday long weekend and be available to all shoppers, rather than just LEGO Insiders. 

Yes, it comes at the shockingly high threshold of 250€/ $250/ £225/ AU$410, which is out of reach for many people. However, if you intend spending that amount on LEGO sets and/or Pick a Brick parts in the near future, and you love classic sets or microscale architecture, or just any great GwP – this comes highly recommended. I think it is just exquisite.

Review: LEGO® 40776 Hot Chocolate Stand gift with purchase

Available over the Black Friday/Cyber  Monday weekend as a free Gift with Purchase (GwP) over the threshold of 170€/ US$170/ £155/ AU$275/ NZ$300, LEGO® 40776 Hot Chocolate Stand is an adorable set of a little cafe shaped like a mug of Christmas cheer! It also features two minifigures and a seating area. Let's take a sip of what it has to offer.

LEGO® Insiders Weekend deals and GwP

LEGO® Insiders Weekend ran from Saturday 22 November to end Sunday 23 and offered double loyalty points (even 4x in some countries on some sets), discounts on products, exclusive Gifts with Purchase (GwP), and there have also been lower prices on individual bricks at Pick a Brick for nearly a week now.

LEGO® Pick a Brick: Thousands of pieces reduced in price

LEGO® Insiders Weekend is underway! On top of all the LEGO Insiders Weekend 2025 Gift with Purchase (GwP) Sets & Deals running across Saturday 22 and Sunday 23 November 2025, we wanted to alert you that there have also been substantial price changes recently on the LEGO Pick a Brick service (PaB), which sells loose bricks individually. Purchases this weekend receive 2x loyalty points and count towards achieving those GwP thresholds.

Thousands of LEGO pieces have had their prices reduced, up to 97% lower. Thanks to data provided by the awesome Ashley Pinner, we've listed every PaB part that is now 40% cheaper or more – that's 2,111 LEGO bits to pick from! Read on to see the visual list of elements, and click any part you like to buy it on LEGO Pick a Brick... while stocks last.

Parts review & MOC: 43257 Angel from LEGO® Disney™

LEGO® Disney™ 43257 Angel caught my attention when it was released in June 2025: an overall rounded, substantially sized character built in a still relatively uncommon colour; an ode of bright pink. As a design, it looks like a pink recolour of 43249 Stitch (review by Thomas Jenkins) with some other changes here and there; new part aficionados will surely notice the gracefully curving tentacles. 

The re-use of previously designed shapes is understandable, as the female character Angel is basically a pink version of Stitch. I'm not a fan of such (relatively common) character design practice, where an established male protagonist gets a love interest by changing colour into pink and adding eyelashes plus an optional heart accessory – all of which were included here. They deserve better.

I'll go through Angel's interesting new parts and present a new MOC that used plenty of them (plus some more pieces – it is not an alternative model), discovering the new possibilities of bright pink.

Reveal: 77258 F1 ACADEMY™ LEGO® Race Car from LEGO® Speed Champions

Coming in March 2026 and available to pre-order now, LEGO® Speed Champions set 77258 F1 ACADEMY™ LEGO® Race Car has just been revealed. This is an especially exciting development, as it is based upon the real thing: The LEGO Group is to be represented on the F1 ACADEMY grid in the 2026 season by driver Esmee Kosterman, as part of a multi-year partnership between the two organisations. 

Even non-carheads like me are excited too because there's not one but three useful new moulds in the set – can you spot them too?

Review: 77255 Lightning McQueen from LEGO® Speed Champions

“Speed. I am speed.” That’s the mantra of Lightning McQueen – and now, he truly lives up to it as the star of the new LEGO® Speed Champions set 77255 Lightning McQueen.

It’s not the first time cars from blockbuster movies have been recreated in the LEGO Speed Champions line, but it seems The LEGO Group and Disney wanted to "give the folks a little sizzle" for the 20th anniversary of the first Cars movie with a bold and fun departure from the usual LEGO Speed Champions lineup.

Waffles' MOCs: Pick a Brick resumed in North America

The LEGO® Pick a Brick (PaB) Standard service is back in the USA and Canada! Today, Monday 17 November 2025, the range of around 17,000 LEGO parts returned – including 777 new pieces that had already been added in other countries during October and November. 

To celebrate, we have some awesome MOCs to show you, created by guest builder Mansur "Waffles" Soeleman (@lamborghiniwafflesauce on Instagram) using pieces that were added to the European PaB site in October, so should in theory be available in North America now.

Parts review and MOCs: LEGO® Speed Champions: Formula 1®

Review: 10366 Tropical Aquarium from LEGO® Icons

Following our interview with the designers, today we'll be looking at upcoming LEGO® Icons set 10366 Tropical Aquarium, which will be released this week. The set has attracted as much attention for both its recolours and its price, so I was keen to take a closer look.

Review: 40768 Star Trek Type 15 Shuttlepod™ GwP from LEGO® Icons

The Winter blues may be setting in for many, but LEGO® Botanicals are here to bring a burst of color to your day.

The PaB stores in USA and Canada were not included due to the ongoing suspension, which ends on Monday 17 November.

Reveal: 77252 F1® The Movie – APXGP Team Race Car from LEGO® Speed Champions

Parts review & MOCs: 71832 Thunderfang Dragon of Chaos from LEGO® NINJAGO®

Set 71832 Thunderfang Dragon of Chaos is a March 2025 release from the LEGO® NINJAGO® theme, featuring a large creature build, a small side build and six minifigures. The colourful dragon is certainly eye-catching, but most of all I wanted to explore the potential of this set for MOC building. I decided to challenge myself further by creating only alternate builds of the set.

Review: 21363 The Goonies from LEGO® Ideas

Set 21363 The Goonies originated from a challenge on the LEGO® Ideas platform to recreate some iconic 1980s memories in LEGO form.

With 12 minifigures included, there's a perfect number for a whole team (well, at least a women's lacrosse team).  The characters and the fun, swashbuckling escapade storyline made The Goonies a cult classic, so let's see what the set has to offer.

10366 Tropical Aquarium: LEGO® designer interview with Sven Franic and Matéo Dupureur

Last week, the November 2025 LEGO® Ideas set 10366 Tropical Aquarium was officially revealed.

Reveal: 77256 Time Machine from Back to the Future, from LEGO® Speed Champions

If you’re gonna build a time machine into a car, then why not do it with some style? LEGO® Speed Champions are certainly doing so, as they go back to the future in 2026 with a new DeLorean time machine – and the New Elementary team have spotted two really thrilling new moulds!

Grantmasters' MOCs using new LEGO® elements: The Master's Return

Justin Cook (aka Grantmasters) has previously wowed us with his Parts Fest contributions and his MOCs with parts from LEGO® Trolls World Tour sets – but it is 5 years since we last featured his work! His Flickr and Instagram feeds have also been notably quiet on the LEGO front recently, so we sent him some new parts to inspire him.

We sent Justin two sets from the LEGO® One Piece theme – 75637 Buggy the Clown's Circus Tent and 75638 Battle at Arlong Park – as well as 77058 Goldie's Cosy House from LEGO® Animal Crossing. He also used elements from a couple of other recent sets to create these fun MOCs to inspire you.  

LEGO® Pick a Brick: new elements added in October 2025 for Europe, Australia and New Zealand

Having skipped September 2025, LEGO® Pick a Brick (PaB) have confirmed they will resume the addition of new elements to the service this week, but only for European, Australian and New Zealand stores. New parts from both May and June 2025 sets are included, so it's a bumper load!

The PaB stores in USA and Canada will not be included due to the current ongoing suspension. No definite date has been provided for the resumption of service in North America, however we do know that it is the team's top priority, and much progress has been made.

LEGO® Pick a Brick: element removal for 2025

Last Chance PaB is upon us! We have the list of LEGO® pieces due to be removed from the Pick a Brick (PaB) service later this year. In 2024, this happened in early December, but it might be different this year. Besides that, the elements could go out of stock at any time before then, and would not be restocked.

We're providing this information so that you can plan your purchases, but maybe don't buy just yet? In the next day or two, new elements will be added to PaB in the European, Australian and New Zealand stores! We will publish the list as soon as we see those going live. As for North America, the issues related to the supply of Standard elements are being resolved first – but we have no firm date from the team yet. 

More information as it comes, but for now, check out the list of disappearing LEGO parts!

Review: 76786 Morticia's Cottage from LEGO® Wednesday

In Season 2 of the popular Netflix series Wednesday, her parents Morticia and Gomez Addams move into Rotwood Cottage which is situated within the grounds of her school, Nevermore Academy.

The Gothic-style cottage in the series was redecorated by Morticia in her unique style, so let's see if the designers have managed to capture some of the fun details, in LEGO® Wednesday set 76786 Morticia's Cottage.

What are the new LEGO® parts in October 2025 sets?

Review: 21362 Mineral Collection from LEGO® Ideas

Available from tomorrow, Wednesday 1 October 2025, set 21362 Mineral Collection is the 70th LEGO® Ideas set to hit the shelves! The idea was submitted by Dario Del Frate (user ddf72). His proposal was quite a bit larger than the official model, but I think the designer has done a good job in retaining the spirit of the original submission while bringing the smaller version to fruition. Let's take a closer look at the interesting elements and see how the rocks are put together.

Review: 10361 Holiday Express Train from LEGO® Icons

Another train is pulling into the station, this time it is LEGO® Icons 10361 Holiday Express Train.

We have already discussed the main controversial element within this set – the latest 3D printed offering from LEGO – but there's more to this train than one element. Let's see what else it has to offer.

Review: 31175 Unicorn Castle from LEGO® Creator

Released in the latest LEGO® Creator wave, 31175 Unicorn Castle is quite striking with its bright pastel color scheme and equine inhabitants. Interest piqued, we thought the set was worth a closer look to determine whether it is really as magical as it seems...

Review: 21361 Gremlins – Gizmo from LEGO® Ideas

LEGO® Ideas set 21361 Gremlins: Gizmo originates from a contest on that platform, and I'm happy seeing a LEGO Ideas set that's not in minifigure scale. But is this little Mogwai a companion worth all the strict rules, and the threat of Gremlins infestation?

While this is not the first LEGO 3D element by any means, it will be the first time one has appeared in a regular retail set with wide availability. This seems like a good opportunity to take a look at the LEGO 3D-printed parts we have encountered so far, and where they might take us.

Review: 76785 Thing's Apartment from LEGO® Wednesday

Three more LEGO® Wednesday sets were announced earlier this year, so let's take a look at one of these October releases: 76785 Thing's Apartment.

The sets are all tie-ins related to the Wednesday Netflix TV series, a spin-off of The Addams Family focusing on the teenage daughter's adventures at school. 76785 Thing's Apartment is based on a scene where Wednesday's roommate Enid Sinclair makes Thing its own home.
