LEGO Insiders Weekend: seven retiring LEGO sets to buy with double points

LEGO Insiders Weekend: seven retiring LEGO sets to buy with double points

It's official time for the LEGO Insiders Weekend and you can make the most of the event's deals while ensuring you don't miss out on retiring sets.

While the latest releases might tempt you into a purchase this LEGO Insiders Weekend, don't forget the hundreds of models that will be retiring next month (that haven't already sold out for good). Many of these models have high prices and as such will qualify for almost every offer currently being held, but there are also double points on absolutely all purchases.

This is the best time of the year to catch up on must-have sets that are about to retire and here are seven we recommend this LEGO Insiders Weekend. All models are in stock worldwide at the time of writing, but this may not be the case for long.

71741 NINJAGO City Gardens

Price: £299.99 / $349.99 / €349.99 Pieces: 5,685 Double points reward value: £29.99 / $34.99 / €34.99

LEGO NINJAGO 71741 NINJAGO City Gardens featured 1 1024x576

71741 NINJAGO City Gardens should already have caught the eye of LEGO NINJAGO enthusiasts but before it retires, we'd point out that this massive, towering set will qualify for every single promotion during the LEGO Insiders Weekend.

As an expensive model, picking it up will net you both 40699 Retro Record Player and 40700 Winter Holiday Train and since it's a NINJAGO model, it qualifies for 5009114 Holiday Crafting Set as a bonus. You'll earn enough points for a £29.99 / $34.99 / €34.99 discount on a future purchase when picking it up this weekend too.

75308 R2-D2

Price: £209.99 / $239.99 / €239.99 Pieces: 2,314 Double points reward value: £20.99 / $23.99 / €23.99

LEGO Star Wars 75308 R2 D2 28

LEGO Star Wars has always been a popular theme and while you can pick up the newest buildable R2-D2 right now, 75308 R2-D2 is bigger and will be retiring before long. This 2,314-piece set was designed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Lucasfilm and comes with a plaque befitting the celebration.

At £209.99 / $239.99 / €239.99, it's expensive enough to net you a free 40700 Winter Holiday Train and you'll be well on your way to a free 40699 Retro Record Player too. With double points, you'll be earning a hefty discount on a future purchase too, or enough points for plenty of exclusive rewards.

10303 Loop Coaster

Price: £344.99 / $399.99 / €399.99 Pieces: 3,756 Double points reward value: £34.49 / $39.99 / €39.99

LEGO 10303 Loop Coaster lifestyle 2 featured 1024x576

Roller coaster enthusiasts should set their sights on 10303 Loop Coaster before it retires or sells out for good. This massive LEGO roller coaster is the first of its kind to include a loop in the track and its colossal tower helps minifigures pick up enough speed to make it through both loops to boot.

On the ground, minifigures can enjoy various amenities and pick up souvenirs before they collect their ride photo. It's an impressive display piece for any home and it's priced high enough to net you two of the three LEGO Insiders Weekend gifts too.

21318 Tree House

Price: £214.99 / $249.99 / €249.99 Pieces: 3,036 Double points reward value: £21.49 / $24.99 / €24.99

LEGO Ideas 21318 Treehouse lifestyle resized featured 1024x576

LEGO Ideas 21318 Tree House's time is nearly up and this displayable model would be right at home in any collection with its natural, appealing and customisable build that can be reworked for any time of year.

Similar to other sets on this list, it's not quite expensive enough for every LEGO Insiders weekend gift, but you won't need much more to grab every free item during the event with this retiring build.

71374 Nintendo Entertainment System

Price: £229.99 / $269.99 / €269.99 Pieces: 2,646 Double points reward value: £22.99 / $26.99 / €26.99

LEGO Super Mario 71374 Nintendo Entertainment System featured 1024x576

LEGO Super Mario's huge 71374 Nintendo Entertainment System is one model that gaming enthusiasts won't want to miss with both the console and a retro TV with one of the most interactive features (that even interacts with the electronic Mario figure to boot).

It's available right now worldwide with double points for the next couple of days, but its days are unfortunately numbered and this may be your last chance to grab the set.

75313 AT-AT

Price: £734.99 / $849.99 / €849.99 Pieces: 6,785 Double points reward value: £73.49 / $84.99 / €84.99

LEGO Star Wars 75313 AT AT review 66 1024x576

The enormous 75313 AT-AT is as big as a small dog and the LEGO Insiders Weekend may well be your last opportunity to pick it up. Spending £734.99 / $849.99 / €849.99 will net you two of the three LEGO gifts-with-purchase and you'll have a huge amount of points to use on future purchases too.

LEGO Star Wars 75313 AT-AT is available now with a variety of minifigures and a packed interior to explore while you build and long after construction is complete too.

10274 Ghostbusters ECTO-1

Price: £209.99 / $239.99 / €239.99 Pieces: 2,352 Double points reward value: £20.99 / $23.99 / €23.99

LEGO Creator Expert 10274 Ghostbusters ECTO-1

The only LEGO Ghostbusters set still available is almost retired, but there's still a chance to grab 10274 Ghostbusters ECTO-1 and during this event, you'll earn £20.99 / $23.99 / €23.99 worth of points to spend on future purchases too.

The set is based on Ghostbusters: Afterlife and as such some stickers to represent rust are included. Thankfully, fans of the original movie can leave these off to properly depict the real vehicle.
