LEGO has just dropped two new gift with purchase sets with the LEGO Disney 100 Mini Steamboat Willie (40659) and the Houses of the World 4 (40599). To get the Steamboat, you’ll need a $100 purchase in Disney properties which include Marvel and Star Wars. The Houses of the World 4 does overlap and requires a $250 general purchase. Considering LEGO has expanded the requirements for the Steamboat, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Steamboat sells out in a few days. Both promotions will run until the end of October.

Best of BrickNerd - Article originally published October 20, 2022. If you have ever been to a LEGO convention, you are probably familiar with the noise of hundreds of LEGO balls rattling through a continuous chain of mechanical madness.
