LEGO Isn't Only Treating Star Wars Fans, Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle Set Drops to New Record Low Price

Build this lovely set up piece-by-piece and then just enjoy it as a set-piece for $144. If you're looking for a gift to get someone who loves Harry Potter, then you're probably staring at a long list of options, all of them feeling a little bit overwhelming. There are plenty of things to choose from, sure, but how many of them will be really special? Well, the answer to this conundrum, and plenty of other ones, is Lego. See at Amazon That's because you can currently grab the Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle and Grounds set with 15% off. This thing is an absolute beauty once it's all put together, and it's sure to offer plenty of joy to any fan you manage to get it for. Yes, that includes yourself if you're just looking for an excuse to get a little treat. Your Letter Is Here As with so many modern Lego sets, the aim here isn't really to play. The aim here is, instead, to spend a few really quality hours building it. You can do that alone, sure, but building it with a friend or some family can make for a really solid way to spend a few evenings and bond a little bit too. There's a lot of fun to be had meticulously putting together any Lego set, but especially when it's one as grandiose as this. That's just the first part of the fun though, the rest of the fun is a little bit more passive. You then get to have this on a shelf, mantlepiece, or even your desk if you've got enough space, and then just smile to yourself as you walk past it. It's worth noting you do need to actually build the 2,660 piece set first, and when we say it's going to be a few evenings, we mean if you're dedicated and putting some serious hours in. The end result is pretty massive too. It measures 21 cm high, 35 cm wide, and 25 cm deep, so you'll need a big enough place to actually display it. As long as you've got that though, you'll be able to enjoy the set for as long as you want to, and maybe even use it as the start of a collection that'll last you for years to come. That's a lot of happiness out of just one thing, and given that it's down to $144 for a limited time, that's all the more reason to treat yourself for once. There's no telling when this set will go on sale again, so don't miss out. See at Amazon

It's World Play Day, and 10 of my favorite Lego sets just went on sale

Today is the International Day of Play — a reminder to spend time creating a more playful world. For me, it's another excuse to build a Lego kit for myself and another chance to share my love of Lego with CNN Underscored readers. I'm tapping in to celebrate the company's World Play Day by rounding up my 10 favorite Lego deals right now. Lego Star Wars Starship Collection Millennium Falcon The pride and joy of my Lego collection is the UCS Millennium Falcon. That set is a little too pricey to recommend to everyone, but this smaller version of the legendary Star Wars ship isn't. The scaled-down starfighter is the perfect build to set on your desk. Unwind by assembling a model made of over 900 pieces. Lego Icons McLaren MP4/4 and Ayrton Senna I recently had the chance to chat with the Lego Group's Senior Vice President of the Americas, Skip Kodak, and he told me this was his favorite set. He remarked about Senna's impact on Brazil and the world of racing. This kit kicked off the Lego Group's collaboration with Formula 1. I was thrilled to see it on sale today, let alone at its all-time low price on Amazon. Lego Icons Bonsai Tree Lego just released a new Japanese Maple Bonsai Tree that I loved after building it. If you're a savvy shopper waiting for a sale, the original Bonsai Tree set has dropped to within $1 of the all-time low price while 20% off. The details on this kit make it perfect to use as home decor, and I adore how playful the swappable leaves are. Lego Marvel Infinity Gauntlet Set I bought this Marvel set back at full price and can still recommend it. Today's 36% discount makes it an even better value as Amazon snaps the price to its lowest of the year. This might be a model built to display in your MCU collection, but just the act of assembling a kit like this is a great way to spend some time playing. Lego Star Wars R2-D2 Astromech Droid R2-D2 might just be the most recognizable robot in all of science fiction. This Amazon discount couldn't have come at a better time, so you can build your version of the astromech droid at its second-best price yet. This would also be a great gift for dad, if you're looking for any Father's Day deals. LEGO DC Superman Mech vs. Lex Luthor The newest Superman movie is about to hit theaters and assembling this set will get you ready for the film about the Man of Steel. It just launched earlier in the year and was one of the Lego kits I was most excited to see hit store shelves in January. Now, it's on sale for one of the first times and down to its best price ever. Lego Botanicals Mini Orchid Set Lego's miniature botanical sets are easily some of the most popular kits for builders of all ages. If you're looking to enjoy the meditative process that is assembling a Lego set, this Mini Orchid would be a great entry point at 20% off. It features a brick-built pot and intricate flower designs that resemble the real plant, without having to water it. Lego Creator 3-in-1 Retro Camera I love the Creator 3-in-1 lineup, and this camera set is calling to the photographer in me. It assembles more than just a retro camera, with instructions for rebuilding its 261 pieces into two other builds. Lego Icons Succulents Place one of the nine included Lego succulents all around your home for less. This set features several types of cacti and desert plants that can be combined into a single centerpiece or scattered to add a bit of playful charm to any room. Lego Star Wars Arc-170 Starfighter I bought this set back in January when it originally launched, and now it's on sale for the second time. It's one of my favorite ships in the Star Wars universe and makes for a great Lego build, especially now that it's 20% off. Nearly all of today's Lego set deals have landed at their lowest prices of the year. Most are also being paired with the best discounts ever, with at least 20% off a wide range of kits from themes like Star Wars, F1, the Botanicals collection, DC and more. Everything also arrives before the weekend, making these kits the perfect last-minute Father's Day gifts. World Play Day is the Lego Group's spin on the United Nations' International Day of Play. The mission is to take a more intentional approach to sparking play to encourage creativity and even improve well-being. I grew up building and playing with Lego — so this is a cause that's near and dear to my heart. As an adult who still unwinds by assembling these building kits, I couldn't agree more that taking some time to have fun is important. Whether it's for kids who could use some extra time off their iPads and smartphones or for adults who could use an excuse to have a little more fun, it's a reminder to channel some whimsy and, well, spend some time playing. This week, I had a chance to talk with Skip Kodak, the Lego Group's Senior Vice President of American Operations, about what it means to play. As fun as it is to swoosh around a brick-built Star Wars X-Wing, there's more to play than just that. I asked Kodak about how play has evolved for Lego over the years, especially as Lego makes more and more with display-focused kits, like the Botanicals I included above. He expressed that it isn't just for kids — building any of these kits, whether it's a model meant to double as home decor or just recreate something from pop culture — just the act of putting together a Lego kit counts. Sitting down and building is my preferred way to destress, so I'm always looking to share that joy by writing about Lego. The company is also encouraging play by launching pop-up installations to help the cause. Across the world, from here on the east coast in Boston to overseas in Berlin, London and Shanghai, these in-person activations merge brick-built statues with other activities to help kids (and adults) alike spend some time playing. Here at CNN Underscored, we make it our job to stay up on all the latest products, but we don't just find them; we also rigorously test products from hundreds of brands to ensure every gift you give is a hit. As for this discount, you're getting a recommendation from a lifelong Lego fan. Senior deals editor Rikka Altland has been building Lego since before she could form full sentences. She has also reported on Lego professionally for nearly a decade and has collected kits for almost twice as long. Altland is always buying new kits, so when she says she loves a set and thinks it's worth buying, she's putting her money where her mouth is.
