Lego deals come in mighty handy no matter which set you have your eye on; these wonderful kits are on the pricey side, after all. That's why the GamesRadar+ team and I have been keeping an eye out for the latest and greatest savings before listing them here. You'll find something to suit master builders of all ages and skill-levels below.

Despite last month's Prime Day sales extravaganza having ended, there are still plenty of great Lego deals floating around out there. As an example, the adorable Lego I Am Groot kit is now $35.49 at Amazon rather than $55. That's its lowest ever price so far as I can tell. Similarly, the new R2-D2 model is £71.99 at Amazon instead of £90 right now. Again, that's a record low price... and that's just the beginning. The list of reductions this month includes a few of the best Lego sets, so it's well worth having a browse.

Wondering how we decide on which discounts to feature? Our resident bargain-hunters and I have been covering Lego deals for close to six years now, so we've got plenty of hints and tips on what to look out for. We also know what separates a good discount from a rubbish one. You can steal all our secrets further down the page.

Lego deals: FAQ

Does Lego ever go on sale?

Lego is usually on sale somewhere. In fact, Lego deals are common no matter the time of year; you'll find a handful of good discounts each week if you know where to look.

Unsure of how to start your bargain hunt? I'd always recommend heading over to Amazon. While that might seem like a cop-out thanks to it being one of the most popular online stores, the retail giant consistently puts out respectable Lego sales come rain or shine.

How do I know if a Lego deal is good or not?

There are plenty of Lego deals each and every week, but the trick is judging whether the offer is worth your time or not. For that, I keep an eye on price-matching sites to determine a product's average cost and whether it's been cheaper in the past (and how often it's dropped in price). That way I can identify and bring you the very best discounts and Lego sales.

Want to try it out yourself? I use sites like CamelCamelCamel, and the process is easy. Simply paste a Lego deal's URL into the search bar to find out the product's biggest discount, average cost, and highest price over a set period of time. You can then determine whether the Lego deal is actually good or not.

Where will I find the best Lego deals?

If you're searching for the very best Lego deals, it's hard to beat Amazon. This online goliath has the greatest range and usually offers discounts on a daily basis - it's the most reliable option. 

However, that doesn't mean you should discount the likes of Best Buy or Walmart. They also provide great price cuts to match Amazon's, and that'll come in handy if you're part of a rewards program like Walmart Plus.

Here are my top picks for Lego sales based on region.

USA
- Amazon:
Best for range and depth
- Walmart: Reliable for good deals
- Best Buy: Provides regular sales
- Lego: Exclusives available here

UK
- Amazon:
Most reliable for variety
- Lego: Exclusives available here
- John Lewis:
Eclectic but good deals
- Very: Surprisingly good discounts available
- Argos: Good for the biggest lines

How do we find Lego deals?

The GamesRadar+ team and I are always on the lookout for tempting Lego deals, and even though we occasionally utilize our proprietary software (called 'Hawk') to find low prices, it's usually a case of browsing multiple, reliable retailers on a weekly or daily basis. We'll then cross-check those prices with competing stores and price-matching software such as CamelCamelCamel. That informs us whether the product in question has been cheaper before now.

Should you wait until the Black Friday or Prime Day Lego sales?

Although there are some excellent Black Friday and Prime Day Lego sales, they don't hold a monopoly on good discounts. We see impressive reductions all year 'round, so it's always worth keeping an eye out just in case.

The one exception would be premium collector sets. While they do drop in cost from time to time, they've surprised me in the past with vast price cuts online or at supermarkets during the November and July Lego sales. The Millennium Falcon is a prime example; in the UK, Aldi clipped a hefty 60% off the kit's price for 2022. Meanwhile, Lego Rivendell hit its lowest price in the UK as a result of Black Friday 2023 and Prime Day 2024.
