Lego Creator 3-in-1 Retro Camera

Build a retro camera, video camera, or television with this three-in-one Lego Creator set. It has an adjustable lens, pressable buttons, and moving parts in all three build options. Plus, it comes with two film rolls and photo stickers. The set makes a great gift for Lego enthusiasts and budding photographers alike, so it’s no surprise that over 30,000 shoppers bought it last month. One shopper said the set has “beautiful” colors and its “size is almost like a real camera.”

Lego Blossoms Sunflowers

Reach for this engaging project that creates sunflowers you can cherish forever. I added it to my own wish list — and I’ve already scooped it up for someone else as a gift. It builds two blooms that are 9.5 inches tall — just the right height to slip into a vase. The set comes inside a small box that you can squeeze into a stocking, too. If you’re a floral enthusiast, grab the cherry blossom, lotus, and rose sets to build an entire bouquet for less than the cost of a real one. 

Lego Speed Champions McLaren F1 MCL38 Race Car

This McLaren F1 race car has details inspired by the real-life 2024 model, including Pirelli-branded tires and sponsor stickers. Its driver minifigure is all suited up with a winged helmet and ready for action in the cockpit. You can build this 269-piece set in a single sitting — and then display it on a worthy bookshelf. One shopper said it “just screams McLaren” with its “aerodynamic shaping” and “iconic papaya color.”

Grab these popular Lego sets while most are $20 or less, including ones inspired by popular franchises like Star Wars, Mario Kart, and Lego Ninjago.
