The LEGO Star Wars 2019 Advent Calendar (75245) is currently on sale for only $24.99 on Amazon. This makes it 38% off the regular price but there’s a little catch, it won’t be in stock until next year. It’s possible that it’ll ship before Christmas but don’t expect it to.

There are now images of the LEGO Star Wars 2020 Mandalorian Battle Pack (75267) that have surfaced online which is based on the hit Disney+ show. The set consists of four Mandalorian minifigures as well as a speeder bike and a turret. Thanks to everyone who emailed in about it.
