If you’re near the Mall of America at the beginning of September, the LEGO Brand Store there will be celebrating their 30th anniversary. There will be some giveaways and building events happening from September 3-4. The first 375 shoppers each day will reeive an exclusive LEGO Anniversary Minifigure Pack (5007499) when you spend $50 or more. There will also be a LEGO Birthday Cake build happening as well as a photo op. The page also says there’s goodie bags available as well.
For some unknown reason, the LEGO London Postcard (40569) has been postponed in North America until January 1, 2023. Note that all of the other new postcard sets are already available with Paris being sold out temporarily and London has also been released in other parts of the world. It’s nothing too earth shattering but it’s just weird that only one of them would get delayed until next year since it was supposed to be released back in July.
There is only a few days left for the Walmart exclusive LEGO 90th Anniversary Mini Castle (6426244) offer and it looks like they are already shipping it out to qualified orders. Our friend FikinBricks has already received their set and it appears that it is packaged in a plastic bag and not in a box as many were expecting. There is a printed shield piece for the 90th anniversary logo and the instructions are printed in a small booklet showing that it has 158 pieces.
There is still two days left to get your orders at Walmart for it. You have to spend $50 in qualifying sets and upload your receipt to the dedicated page by August 31.

Back in 2020, LEGO has gotten the license for the Fast & Furious franchise and has been slowly releasing sets for the popular movies. So far, we’ve only gotten sets for Dominic Toretto including the LEGO Technic Dom’s Dodge Charger (42111) and newly released LEGO Speed Champions 1970 Dodge Charger R/T (76912). According to Promobricks, we may be seeing another addition in 2023 with a fan favorite character.
It has been rumored that we might be getting Brian O’Conner’s Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 (76917) in early spring. If you’re not familiar with the movies, this car was driven by Paul Walker in the beginning of 2 Fast 2 Furious. Like with the other Speed Champions set, it will also include a minifigure, most likely of O’Conner. The price point should be around the same as the one right now unless something happens and has to bump the price up more.
