"Still miserable about the cold, snow, and ice, and just want a hobby that involves hibernating until spring? Yeah. Same. That's why I've been spending my nights building Lego sets under a heated blanket. Even with Presidents' Day looming, Lego sales still aren't what they were around the holidays, but I'm seeing a few decent deals on smaller and mid-sized sets."
"The Star Wars Millennium Falcon is slated to retire at the end of 2026, so if you're looking to grab this desk-sized version of the fastest hunk of junk in the Galaxy, you might as well do it while it's 20 percent off. Because once it's gone, it's gone (at a reasonable price, at least). If you're looking for something more retro, the ever-popular Back to the Future set is also tentatively retiring at the end of this year,"
"With a lot of intricate details and moving pieces, the Technic sets are great options for car lovers to jumpstart their building hobby. This month, the Bugatti Bolide and Ford GT are on sale, featuring cool things like vehicle accurate engines, moving pistons, steering, and wheels. Trying to recapture the Lego sets of your youth? This Blacktron Renegades set is based on a 1980s fan favorite set."
Lego sales are lower than during the holidays, but Presidents' Day brings discounts on smaller and mid-sized sets. Soon-to-be-retired sets such as the Star Wars Millennium Falcon and Back to the Future are highlighted as high-priority purchases while discounted. Technic car sets like the Bugatti Bolide and Ford GT are on sale and include vehicle-accurate engines, moving pistons, steering, and wheels. Retro offerings such as the Blacktron Renegades and an unconventional Batman build provide nostalgic or distinctive construction experiences. Movie-inspired items like a Harry Potter mandrake and a Spider-Man bust are relatively easy, display-friendly builds. Buying retiring or discounted sets now secures reasonable prices before availability diminishes.
