LEGO Seasonal Mini Gingerbread House (40337) Promotion on Shop@Home – July 2020

For this weekend, LEGO is now offering the 2019 LEGO Seasonal Mini Gingerbread House (40337) on Shop@Home with purchases of $100 or more, while supplies last. This promotion will run until 11:50pm EST, 7/26. This set was previously used for the Christmas holiday promotion last year. Note that this set was not the one that was advertised in the July 2020 Store Calendar. I’m not sure why LEGO decided to make the change.

Rumored LEGO Direct to Consumer Sets Retiring in 2020

It’s that time of the year where we get some information of what LEGO sets will be retiring soon. According to my sources, there will be some popular LEGO direct to consumer sets that will be going away by the end of the year. I’ve been told that the LEGO Creator Downtown Diner (10260), Taj Mahal (10256), and the LEGO Ideas Tree House (21318) will be retired. Only the Ideas set hasn’t been out for a year as of this writing. One of the reasons why the Tree House is going away so fast is that there are so many upcoming Ideas sets in the pipeline, there’s no more room for it on the shelves.

Most of the sets are out of stock on Shop@Home but the Diner is available on Amazon. I suggest checking the store stock on the Shop@Home product pages to see if your local LEGO Brand Store still has them.

San Diego Comic Con 2020 goes virtual this year and we’ve already reported that LEGO won’t be doing any panels as confirmed on the schedule. As for the LEGO exclusive, there’s no word on anything but there are rumors floating around Instagram about one that is LEGO Super Mario related. The set is called Toad’s Special Hideaway (77907) and it is priced at $19.99. There’s no details on where it will be sold at but it could be sold online at Target similar to the LEGO Star Wars Celebration 2019 Darth Vader Bust (75227). As always, nothing is confirmed so we’ll see if LEGO does anything next week.

Fairy Bricks Looking for Information About Stolen LEGO Sets

A few days ago, Fairy Bricks, a charity in the UK that gives LEGO to children in hospitals, was a victim of a robbery at their headquarters. As you can see in the picture above, the place was ransacked and there were a number of LEGO sets that were stolen. The perpetrator(s) cut through a metal sheet from the outside to get in. Also their van that is used to deliver the sets was also stolen but it has since been returned. This isn’t the first time that Fairy Bricks has been robbed as their van was broken in a few years ago.

If you’re in the UK, keep an eye out for the following sets which were stolen in large quantities. If you have any information, please contact Fairy Bricks or the West Yorkshire Police.

Update: LEGO has tweeted that they will be working with Fairy Bricks to replace the sets as soon as possible.
