Many retailers are doing heavy discounts in stores on various LEGO sets and I’ve been told a few times that Walmart has the LEGO Speed Champions Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO (30342) polybag on sale for only $0.50. Normally, polybags are now priced at $4.97 but some people have found them for a whopping 90% off. You can check Brickseek to see if there are any near you.

Yesterday’s release of the designer video for the LEGO Ideas Medieval Blacksmith (21325) may have also teased a future gift with purchase item. About 1:10 into the video when LEGO designer Wes Talbott reaches up to the cabinet to get the set, the right side of it has a small castle build on top of some storage bricks. A few keen eyed readers have already suggest that this little build could be a GWP next month when the Medieval Blacksmith is released. We all know LEGO likes to do teasers for upcoming products but there hasn’t been any updates from LEGO on upcoming promotions so we’ll have to wait for the LEGO Store Calendar to be published online to see whether or not it will be a GWP. Thanks to everyone who emailed in about it. Original linkOriginal author: Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It’s January 18 and that means that The Brick Fan turns nine years old today. For those who have recently found the site, it went by another name when I first started out but had to change it to The Brick Fan and January 18 was the day that domain went live. I’m even surprised that I kept up with it throughout these years which actually doesn’t seem that long. I still remember the day that I got my first LEGO set after my Dark Age and wanted to do something fun with it. And boom, here we are. FYI, it was the LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon (7965). Last year, it was a terrible year for the world but a lot of you had time to be online more and it marked the best year we had on the site in terms of pageviews and first time visitors. For 2021,...
