The LEGO Star Wars UCS Death Star (75419) is by no means a cheap set but a user on Reddit has managed to get it for “free” using only Insiders points. Of course, if you’ve been buying LEGO throughout the years and hoarding all the points without using them, a big purchase like this is valid. It required the user to use 129,998 Insiders points to get the max discount of $999.99 but it was easy for them since they’ve already banked over 150k points. Each $1 you spend earns you 6.5 points so you had to have already spent $20,000 to get the points in the first place. Even if you just shopped during the double points event, $10,000 is still a lot for anybody. LEGO also sometimes did the 4x events but those were rare. Kudos to the user that did it and we’re not worthy. I thought I...

LEGO has revealed a new set in the Wonders of the Natural World line with the Northern Lights Diorama (40785). The set has 332 pieces and it features a snowy scene in the Northern Hemisphere with the aurora borealis in the background.

This set makes a great gift for kids aged 12 and up or anyone who loves the natural world....

September brought no shortage of great LEGO content from around the globe! Here at BrickNerd, we took a look at the new version of the Black Pearl, evaluated whether the new Nike sets are a slam dunk or not, and met an AFOL making wonderful alternate builds from modular sets. We continued an ongoing series and looked at developing an individual style for your MOCs, took a sweet look at the new Friends beekeeper set, studied ingenious ways to build the humble chair, and went even sweeter yet with the Willy Wonka set. In fact, we’ve published so many interesting articles in September that we’ve included an interactive calendar of them at the bottom of this post, so you can make sure you haven’t missed a thing. But there are many more fascinating stories to be told from within the LEGO community, so here are some of the best LEGO articles...

Habitat Week on BrickNerd ends with a guest article comes from Davide Sacramati, aka ABrickDreamer, an Italian AFOL living in Singapore and minifigure habitat enthusiast. You can find him on Instagram and YouTube. Collectible Minifigures As a MOC builder, I’m always on the lookout for inspiration for my next builds, and nothing sparks my imagination better than a new series of collectible minifigures! The LEGO Group has been spoiling us with amazing minifigs, along with the very successful Dungeons & Dragons series that followed the Space-themed series. Now we’re back to the standard format with Collectible Minifigure (CMF) Series 27, and I’d say we’re still being spoiled! The Series 27 Minifigures The Series 27 lineup of 12 minifigures covers a variety of themes and should satisfy all types of collectors. The minifigures, provided by The LEGO Group on behalf of BrickNerd, came in a lovely, tall green box containing the complete...
