Argos has slashed prices on a range of Lego sets as part of its huge Black Friday sale. The retailer marked one of the year’s biggest shopping events by reducing more than 30 Lego sets, with more than a third off some awesome models including Star Wars, Harry Potter and Disney.
Gone are the days when the iconic Danish brand was considered a toy just for children. Lego now produces tons of sets for adults, with the brick becoming something of a valuable commodity.
We’ve scoured Argos’ Black Friday sale to find the biggest and best deals on Lego sets and collectible models, with savvy shoppers able to bag savings of up to £70. This year, it’s Star Wars fans who can make the biggest savings as a host of buildable ships and collectibles display models have had their prices dramatically reduced.
Argos customers can pick up some impressive Lego sets from a galaxy far, far away, including this ultra-cool X-Wing Starfighter. Billed as Lego “for adults,” this set from the brand’s Ultimate Collector Series comes with a Luke Skywalker minifigure complete with lightsaber and outfit designed specially for this set.
The almost 2,000-piece set includes a buildable display stand featuring a plaque showing X-Wing technical data, while its wings can be switched from flight mode to attack mode at the turn of a switch. This set is now a third off at £140 – a huge £70 saving.
Those looking to push the boat out can save almost £150 on the Millennium Falcon Collector Series set, an impressive 7,541-piece set that has 20 percent off at £588. Shoppers can add another collectible model to the collection and save a third on Luke Skywalker’s Landspeeder, now £70 off at £140.
It’s starships galore this Black Friday as the Mandalorian Fighter vs TIE Interceptor set is also a third off at £90. This two-ship set includes the Fang Fighter from season of the hit Disney+ series alongside the classic TIE Interceptor, complete with three minifigures including Mando himself with the Darksaber.
But it’s not all Star Wars this Black Friday, as Potterheads can also make some big savings with these impressive Harry Potter Lego sets. This Hogwarts Castle and Grounds set recreates iconic locations from the most famous school in the Wizarding World, and is now more than a third off.
