Amazon’s spend $50, save $10 promotion is still going on and they have been rotating products in and out to keep it sort of fresh. The newest items they have added to the list are the LEGO Harry Potter Advent Calendar (75981) and the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar (75279). Both sets are currently 25% off and you will have a bit more if you meet the required $50 threshold.
Earlier today, it was revealed there will be an announcement for the new LEGO Colosseum (10276) this week and there’s also rumors of a gift with purchase set with it. I’ve been told by a source that there will be some sort of freebie when you purchase the Colosseum but I’m not sure what it will be at this time.
If you didn’t hear yet, the Colosseum will be the largest set that LEGO has produced with 9,035 pieces. This dwarfs the LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon (75192) by almost 1,500 pieces. I assume the set will be labeled an 18+ set as pretty much a majority of the new sets that have released are 18+. It won’t be long until LEGO test the waters with a 10,000 piece set.
LEGO Italy has put out a press release of what appears to be the rumored LEGO Colosseum (10276). If you remember from a few months ago, we reported that the set would be the largest set that LEGO has produced coming in at 9,035 pieces. According to this press release, it looks like that has been confirmed. The image shows that it could be announced on November 13 at 3pm. It also shows a scene with minifigures but I wouldn’t hold your breath on that since these large landmark sets don’t include any minifigures but we’ll see. Below is the translation for the text.

LEGO has confirmed on Facebook that the SDCC 2020 LEGO Star Wars Nebulon-B Frigate (77904) will be available for purchase starting on November 14 at the LEGO Shop and on Amazon, while supplies last. It was rumored that it was going to be available on November 15 but I’m glad that LEGO clarified the date before people miss out on it. There’s still no product pages for the set at this time but they’ll probably go up a day or two before the drop. The Nebulon-B Frigate has 459 pieces and will retail at $39.99 like with the other SDCC 2020 sets that have released this year.
