Update: Amazon has dropped the price back down to $39.99 shipped following post-Prime Day sales.
Amazon is offering the LEGO Ideas Tales of the Space Age set for $39.99 shipped. Down from its usual $67 price tag, it ended 2023 at $42.50 after the winter holiday sales, and has seen a handful of discounts so far in the new year. In February costs fell to $41, followed by a slightly lower $40 rate in March and April. There was a short-lived return in May to $40 while June never saw the price fall lower than $45. Now, today, this deal comes in as a 40% markdown that returns it to the all-time lowest price we have tracked.
One of the more recent LEGO Ideas creations to hit the scene, the Tales of the Space Age set takes a retro approach with four different scenes from amongst the stars, each of them captured with display-worthy décor for your home. Each of the four builds stack up into postcard-sized brick-built canvases that depict iconic happenings within the vastness of space: a cluster of comets passing over an observatory, a black hole, a rocket blasting off towards infinity, and a Martian landscape complete with rovers and even an adjustable lunar eclipse. There is a slight 3D-like element that is built into their designs, with the finished artworks able to be hung on the wall or presented on shelves or furniture.
