Double VIP Points & New LEGO Overwatch Sets

There are some new LEGO sets and promotions that went live after our September 2019 – New LEGO Sets & Promotions discussion, so I wanted to make sure you are aware of them.

First of all, two of the new LEGO Hidden Side sets are offered with Double VIP Points during the whole month of September. The two sets are the #70423 LEGO Hidden Side Paranormal Intercept Bus 3000, and the #70425 LEGO Hidden Side Newbury Haunted High School. Also, remember that until the 15th of September, you will get a free #40336 LEGO Hidden Side Newbury Juice Bar with purchases of $50 or more. So, this is a perfect time to try out the very exciting LEGO Hidden Side collection. If you would like to learn more about the sets and the accompanying app, go to LEGO Hidden Side Sets & App Overview. Both the Double VIP Points offer and the free set offer are available at official LEGO stores and the Online LEGO Shop.

There are also two new sets in the LEGO Overwatch collection that are now available for pre-order (official release October 1st). The #75976 LEGO Overwatch Wrecking Ball, and the #75977 LEGO Overwatch Junkrat & Roadhog. The Wrecking Ball transforms from a battle mech to a high-speed ball, and is piloted by Hammond the hamster. The second set features a sweet yellow chopper bike and the iconic crime duo from Overwatch: Roadhog and Junkrat. Roadhog comes as a large, highly-detailed bigfig with his chain hook and scrap gun, and Junkrat has his iconic peg-leg and frag launcher. Both sets can be pre-ordered at the LEGO Overwatch section of the Online LEGO Shop.

As we discussed at the beginning of the month, LEGO also released several new sets in other categories, including the #71044 LEGO Disney Train and Station, the #21319 LEGO Ideas Central Perk set, the 2019 LEGO Advent Calendars, and LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 19. Other recently released sets worth noting again are the #10269 LEGO Creator Expert Harley-Davidson Fat Boy, the #21318 LEGO Ideas Treehouse, the #75936 LEGO Jurassic Park: T. Rex Rampage, the #75253 LEGO Star Wars Droid Commander robotics set, the #10265 LEGO Creator Ford Mustang, the #75810 LEGO Stranger Things Upside Down set, and much more. You can find them all at the New tab of the Online LEGO Shop.
