The clock is ticking on the best Lego Christmas sales, so time is of the essence if you're cutting it fine in terms of presents (or just want something to build over the Holidays). Indeed, I've seen big retailers like Amazon slapping a "won't arrive until after Christmas, sorry" label on many must-have kits.

That's why I've gone ahead and corralled the best Lego Christmas sales that will arrive before Xmas. Walmart currently seems like a solid bet if you want to play it safe, while Amazon has some offers that should get there in the nick of time. Either way, I'd act sooner than later if you want to avoid disappointment. As an example, Amazon is saying that some items could arrive between December 23/27 if you order today. In other words, we're starting to play with fire.

Seeing as some of the best Lego sets are included in this year's haul, and many are seeing record low prices, it's certainly worth a look at the very least. Good luck - here's hoping you enjoy a little Christmas miracle and get what you need before cutoff.

Lego Super Mario Piranha Plant | ~~$59.99~~ $47.95 at Walmart
Save $12 - One of my favorite sets from 2024 has hovered at this all-time low price for a while now, which makes me think that it won't drop any further before 2025. Because it used to average $58, you're getting the best possible value. Sure, Amazon is offering the same price and may be more convenient. But beware - that deal might not arrive before Christmas, whereas this Walmart listing will.

💲 Lego | $59.99

⭐ UK price: ~~£57.99~~ £42.99 at Amazon

Lego Star Wars Droideka | ~~$64.99~~ $51.95 at Walmart
Save $7 - This new kit is still available at its lowest ever price, and it'll arrive in time for Christmas. It can be picked up from Amazon as well, but that listing won't hit your doorstep until after the festive season.

💲 Lego | $64.99

⭐ UK price: ~~£59.99~~ £47.99 at Amazon

Lego Botanical Collection Tiny Plants | ~~$49.99~~ $39.95 at Walmart
Save $10 - One of the newest Botanical sets hasn't ever been cheaper, so now's a good time to dive in if you've had your eye on the kit. Amazon should arrive before Christmas, but it's dicey (due to a "up to December 27" delivery date), so I'd go for Walmart instead.

Arrives before Xmas?

Buy it if:
✅ You want a variety of plants

Don't buy it if:

⭐ UK price: ~~£44.99~~ £36 at Amazon

Lego Harry Potter Dobby The House Elf | ~~$34.99~~ $27.95 at Walmart
Save $7 - The Lego House Elf has never been cheaper than he is now, so he's here to save your bacon if you want an easy last-minute gift for the Wizarding World fans in your life. So far as I can tell, this Walmart deal will also land on your doorstep ahead of Christmas, whereas rivals like Amazon won't.

Arrives before Xmas?
🎄 Yes

Buy it if:
✅ You're looking for a present
✅ You want the best deal

Don't buy it if:

⭐ UK price: ~~£24.99~~ £18.49 at Amazon

Lego Animal Crossing Nook's Cranny & Rosie's House | ~~$74.99~~ $59.95 at Amazon
Save $11 - This kit doesn't often get a reduction, so the fact that it's at its lowest ever price is noteworthy... particularly due to it arriving before Christmas.

Arrives before Xmas?
🎄 Yes

Buy it if:
✅ You want a centerpiece to your AC collection
✅ You're buying for adults or kids

Don't buy it if:
❌ You wanted a full Nook's Cranny

Price check:
💲 Walmart | $59.95
💲 Lego | $74.99

⭐ UK price: ~~£64.99~~ £45.49 at My Nintendo Store

Lego Botanical Collection Bonsai Tree | ~~$49.99~~ $39.99 at Amazon
Save $10 - Here's another record low to kick off your week, and even though we've seen that kind of discount before, I can't argue with a saving like that. It's confirmed to arrive ahead of Christmas, too.

Arrives before Xmas?
🎄 Yes

Buy it if:
✅ You want an usual gift
✅ You'd like a sleek display piece

Don't buy it if:
❌ You'd rather have a real Bonsai

Price check:
💲 Walmart | $39.99
💲 Lego | $49.99

⭐ UK price: ~~£44.99~~ £36 at Game

I've been writing about games in one form or another since 2012, but these days you'll find me managing GamesRadar+'s tabletop gaming and toy coverage (I spend my time here handling everything from board game reviews to the latest Lego news). I've also been obsessed with Warhammer since the 1990s, and love nothing more than running tabletop RPGs like D&D as a Dungeon Master.
