The LEGO Technic Jeep Wrangler (42122) has been discounted by 20% over on Amazon. The licensed set now retails for $40 which is a savings of $10 and it is the lowest it has been on the site. The only downside of it is that you can order it now but it won’t be in stock until June 13. If you can wait, it is a good deal for the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon.

Billund, May 20th 2021: The LEGO Group today announces LEGO® Everyone is Awesome a set designed to celebrate the diversity of our fans and the world around us. The buildable display model is inspired by the iconic rainbow flag which is used as a symbol of love and acceptance by the LGBTQIA+ community and features 11 monochrome minifigures each with its own individual hairstyle and rainbow colour.
Set designer Matthew Ashton, Vice President, Design said: “I wanted to create a model that symbolises inclusivity and celebrates everyone, no matter how they identify or who they love.”
“Everyone is unique, and with a little more love, acceptance and understanding in the world, we can all feel more free to be our true AWESOME selves! This model shows that we care, and that we truly believe ‘Everyone is awesome’!”

There’s a new LEGO ad on Instagram that I came across that shows there will be a new LEGO Friends Coffee Mug promotion starting soon on the LEGO Shop. It says that you can get the mug with a purchase of the LEGO Ideas Central Perk (21319) but it doesn’t seem like the promo hasn’t started yet online.
The promotion is very interesting since many people already have the Central Perk and since The Friends Apartment (10292) just dropped for VIPs, why didn’t LEGO do it for that instead. I’m thinking that LEGO is banking on people purchasing both sets since there’s a big Friends fandom.
The LEGO Technic Porsche 911 RSR (42096) is now priced at a 20% discount over on Amazon. You can save $30 off the retail price which brings it down to $119.99 which is the lowest it has been since November 2020. The set has been out since January 2019 so this could be a permanent discount which also suggests it could be retiring by the end of the year by typical LEGO shelf life standards.
