Lego Ideas: Tales of the Space Age (688 Pieces)
$35 ($50)
Designed to be a collection of 3D postcards, Tales of the Space Age is inspired by ’80s sci-fi movies, books, and posters. Each design is an original piece, and you’ll be able to build colorful images of an observatory for viewing comets and shooting stars, a moon base under a lunar eclipse, a space shuttle, and a black hole. If you don’t want to stick to the script, you can even rearrange the blocks to create the Ursa Major, Cepheus, Ursa Minor, or Cassiopeia constellations.
As for how they’re meant to be displayed, that’s all up to you. The postcards can be connected in any order and you can display them on a flat surface or mount them on your wall using the included hangers. Overall, this is a fun afternoon build that should make for a tasteful gift or a treat to yourself.
Beyond the space-themed Lego sets, Best Buy has a few other deals on cool Lego sets, including a $45 discount on a 1,210-piece Corvette model car.
