These Retiring LEGO Sets Are Sold Out at the LEGO Store, But You Can Still Snag Them At Amazon
About
Overview
If you're a LEGO fan, it can sometimes be hard to keep track of what sets are retiring soon, which ones are out of stock, and so on, so we've done the research for you. Every month, LEGO sunsets a selection of different sets that have been on the market awhile, meaning they often can't be purchased directly through their site or at most major retailers after the offcial retire date. This month is no different, but almost 30 of these sets are already out of stock on LEGO's website. Luckily, Amazon still has a handful of them in stock if you're looking to pick one up before they get the boot. One of the most popular LEGO sets in recent years has been The Legend of Zelda Great Deku tree set. That's also set to be retired at the end of July, but it's been sold out everywhere since its sunsetting was announced. Once a popular set goes out of stock completely you'll only be able to buy it at a marked up price from 3rd-party sellers. The eight sets you can find in stock at Amazon cover an eclectic range of themes from LEGO's vast catalogue, from Star Wars and One Piece to the super-popular Botanicals line. It may be your last chance to pick some of these up at their sticker prices, and a couple of them are even on sale for a few bucks off. They're all shipped by Amazon, but some of them are sold by third party vendors. One of two Star Wars LEGO sets part of this batch is the Home One Starcruiser from Return of the Jedi. It's 559 pieces, is over a foot long, comes with a display stand and information plaque, and even has a miniature Nebulon-B Medical Frigate ship to show off its scale. Next is one of the ships present at the Battle of Geonosis in Attack of the Clones. The recreation of the Acclamator-Class Assault Ship is made up of 450 pieces and just over 6in. high and 9in. long, so like the Home One Starcruiser won't take up much space to display on your shelf. One of the more detailed One Piece LEGO sets, Battle at Arlong Park recreates the action-packed scene from season one of the Netflix show. It's 926 pieces, so building this while a couple episodes play in the background sounds like a great way to spend a night in. You also get five minifigures: Luffy, Nami, Usopp, Arlong, and Chu. Toad's Garage is just one of many LEGO Mario Kart sets getting retired. The 390-piece set comes with two fully brick-built Toad figures, a Standard Kart vehicle that works with other Mario Kart sets and figures, garage supplies, and classic Mario Kart items like red and green shells. LEGO Botanicals make for great display pieces or desk decorations, and the Lotus Flower set is no different. It's a relatively quick build at 220 pieces, and Amazon has it for just $8.99 when it's usually $15. You'll get three brick-built flowers that each measure at over a foot long. I love a weird little build like this, and the LEGO City line is filled with them. The Donut Truck set, made up of 196 pieces, is a neat recreation of food trucks you see all over, with miniature donut bricks and a brick-built donut topper for the truck. You get two minifigures with this one The other LEGO City set is the Robot World Rollercoaster. This is a fully-functional rollercoaster build (although without a way to motorize the cars on the tracks), and an impressively-designed set. At 986 pieces, it's very detailed and includes eight different minifigures. The LEGO Technic race car sets are some of the most intricately-designed builds LEGO has in their catalogue. The Bugatti Bolide is one such model, and is an accurate representation of the real-life vehicle. It's made up of 905 pieces, which is relatively small compared so of the more detailed builds, but still makes for a great display piece if you're a fan of both LEGO and racing.
