One of the limitations of growing your LEGO layout is space but if you are able to expand it, you might need some more baseplates. Luckily, Amazon is having some great sales on them. Both the Green and Blue baseplates are priced at $5.14 each. The Green is 49% off and the Blue is 36% off due to the Blue one being cheaper originally. If you’re using the Gray, that one is 20% off. At these sales, now is a great time to stock up on them if you can.
A few days ago, it was announced that LEGO is partnering up with the newer version of Top Gear to release a LEGO Technic set that will be released next year. The details were pretty much nonexistent but it looks like the folks at Promobricks has found out something about it. It is reported that it will be set number 42109 and it will have 463 pieces while retailing for €129.99. It will also implement the new CONTROL+ system and controlled using the app. It was also stated that the set will be a white rally car with some stickers of The Stig and the UK flag. As always, these are strictly rumors until LEGO officially announces the set or it shows up at a verified retailer.
It’s October and that means there are brand new LEGO sets that are available on Shop@Home. First are the two large scale Technic sets with the Liebherr R 9800 Excavator (42100) which goes for $449.99 and the Land Rover Defender (42110) which goes for $199.99.

LEGO has announced a new partnership with the hit BBC TV show Top Gear to produce a LEGO Technic Top Gear set that is set to be released in 2020. As you may remember, there was a rumor from many years ago that we could be getting Top Gear sets which ended up becoming the LEGO Speed Champions theme.
This new Technic set will be based on the BBC Two show starring Paddy McGuinness, Freddie Flintoff, and Chris Harris. BBC Studios Head of Licensing, Jason Easy, states, “It’s certainly a natural fit for both and we’re looking forward to seeing the LEGO Technic Set hit the shelves next year.”
There’s no word on whether we’ll get the three in minifigure form but considering that it’s a Technic set, it’ll probably just be a larger scale vehicle.
Thanks to Richie for the heads up.

The LEGO Creator Gingerbread House (10267) is now available but why not pair it up with a previous Winter Village set that is currently on sale on Amazon. The Winter Holiday Train (10254) is currently priced at $87.99 which is 12% off but it is only a few cents off its lowest ever price. The Train was released in 2016 so it’s possible that it will be the next Winter Village set to be retired.
