Whenever there's a sales event for GamesRadar+ to cover, a lot of the same items fly off shelves. That's true of Lego as much as anything else, and favourites like the Millennium Falcon always do well. But the kit that's apparently cleaning up right now wasn't what I expected. Not even slightly. According to Amazon, one of the most popular sets in today's Big Deal Days is… Dobby from Lego Harry Potter.
Yes, Dobby. The loyal House Elf has taken a significant cut in honor of the event, bringing an already-affordable kit down to its lowest ever price. More specifically, the Lego Harry Potter set is now 32% less than usual - it's £17.09 at Amazon instead of almost £25. Because the listing suggests that 10K+ people have purchased the Lego set in the past month alone, it's clearly going down well.
To be honest, I can understand why. Besides being a cute build with a price verging on impulse-purchase territory, it's the perfect gift for Harry Potter fans like me. It's not too expensive, is a neat keepsake that doesn't take up lots of room, and captures the vibe of the beloved character perfectly.
Is this amongst the best Lego sets ever made? I wouldn't say so. However, it's an incredibly accessible build that'll still satisfy you without demanding dozens of hours in build-time. Unlike Dobby plushies or statuettes (which can look like the House Elf is a wizened old meth addict if done badly) it's also very sweet thanks to a cartoon aesthetic that'll be a hit with both adults and children.
Naturally, this is far from the only offer in today's Big Deal Days event. You can check out our top picks below, or dive in with must-have Prime Day Lego deals.
