To get your name in the hat, all you need to do is create a wishlist at LEGO.com, then head to the main wishlist landing page. At the top you’ll find a banner with a button to enter the sweepstake. Select the wishlist you want to enter, agree to the terms and conditions and submit. You’ve got until July 31 at 3:59pm BST to enter. The winners will be contacted on August 14 (or shortly thereafter).
What should I add to my LEGO wishlist?
So, what’s the best way to maximise returns on this sweepstake? Well, the obvious answer is to add exclusive sets to your wishlist that you can’t get anywhere else besides LEGO.com – and therefore are unlikely to see discounts. Think sets like 10294 Titanic, 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow’s Pirate Ship and 10352 The Simpsons: Krusty Burger.
Another option is to go all-out on the sets you might otherwise only look longingly at but would never realistically be able to afford. The top tier of expensive LEGO sets would fit nicely here: 75419 Death Star, for example, although that would take up almost all of the wishlist in one go. Alternatively, you could opt for a one-two combo of 10316 Rivendell and 10333 Barad-dûr.
Speaking of The Lord of the Rings: the other obvious path to take here is filling your wishlist with new releases that have yet to see significant discounts, or may not do so for a while yet, like 11377 Minas Tirith.
That one’s on my wishlist – here’s the full roster, if you’re interested, which totals a neat £999.96. I’ve gone for three exclusives, plus a smaller Creator set to maximise the value of the wishlist prize.
- 11377 The Lord of the Rings: Minas Tirith
- 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow’s Pirate Ship
- 75461 Up-scaled Darth Vader Minifigure
- 31381 Fierce Shark with a Treasure Chest
