LEGO Icons 40586 Moving Truck gift-with-purchase review

Available now, LEGO Icons 40586 Moving Truck is the latest LEGO gift-with-purchase offering a full-size quality LEGO set free with qualifying spends.

Specifically, spends of £160 / $180 / €180 or more in LEGO stores or at LEGO.com from February 21 to March 3 – or while stocks last – will net you a free copy of LEGO Icons 40586 Moving Truck.

That’s a fair amount to spend to qualify for a promotional item, towards the top end, but for the money comes a gift-with-purchase that is, once again, better thought of as a full-on LEGO set of its own. We say once again, because 40586 Moving Truck continues the LEGO Group’s trend from 2022 of offering much larger, more substantial and higher quality LEGO sets as GWPs.

This latest one is themed to LEGO Icons, and perfectly so in the guise of a moving truck, complete with various items of furniture that thematically complement the recently released 10312 Jazz Club modular building. Beyond those details that so excellently tie the set to its theme’s most recent release (and offer some of the best builds in the box, akin to what Icons can offer), the concept of offering up a moving truck is so brilliantly conceived here for a theme like Icons that every year offers a new modular building for your minifigures to then need to move to.

As a build it is straightforward but smart, with some innovative details in there, and importantly the model truck comes in at a credible and decent size, both to fit into a typical LEGO city layout and to park outside whichever modular building you may want, and to offer up enough space inside to fit those various 10312 Jazz Club-themed items to move. The ramp and trolley are nice details to add to the story being the set, as is the large stickered branding on the side of the truck.

The one criticism, perhaps? That within the items being moved aren’t any  precariously packaged LEGO items in tiny form. If you have ever moved house and included a LEGO set as part of that process it very much stays with you. But we are nit-picking here.

There’s plenty to love and find value in LEGO Icons 40586 Moving Truck and long may this run of high-quality gift-with-purchase LEGO sets continue, because they offer much more play and all-round enjoyment to collect and build than previous items that couldn’t always strike the same chord with as wide of an audience.

LEGO Icons 40586 Moving Truck is available now and through to March 3, whilst stocks last, awarded with LEGO purchases of £160 / $180 / €180 or more in LEGO stores or at LEGO.com.
