It’s a big day for LEGO fans. You can now purchase the awesome LEGO Optimus Prime set that, when built, actually transforms into a semi truck. That’s a nifty feat of engineering if ever there was one. It’s available exclusively on the LEGO Store. Also available now is the rad Vincent van Gogh Starry Night set, plus a ship from The Book of Boba Fett and more. We have all the details below, so let’s get to it.
The star of the show this month, for me and lots of other ‘80s and ‘90s kids anyway, is LEGO Optimus Prime. This set is exclusive to the LEGO Store, at least for now. As mentioned above, you build the Autobot hero in robot form, and you can transform him into vehicle form without removing any pieces or rebuilding. It’s awesome.
Next up is an impressive reproduction of Vincent van Gogh’s most famous painting, The Starry Night (see it at LEGO Store). It uses all sorts of clever building techniques to create the whorls in the sky. It even comes with an adorable minifigure of van Gogh himself at his easel. That one’s also exclusive to the LEGO Store at the moment.
Another new LEGO set available now at both Amazon and the LEGO Store is The Mandalorian’s N-1 Starfighter. It’s a 412-piece set that includes minifigures of Mando, Grogu, Peli Motto, and a BD droid. Finally, there’s the Ferrari Daytona SP3 set from LEGO’s Technic line (see at LEGO Store). This thing’s a beast at 3,778 pieces, and considering the price it’s no surprise that it’s intended for adults age 18 and up.
In other LEGO news, the official IGN Store now has LEGO sets, including the Horizon: Forbidden West Tallneck set. So there you go.
