The Lego Nintendo Entertainment System has received a rare, substantial discount at the Lego Store. Until October 20–or until it sells out–the Lego NES is 20% off, dropping the price to $216 (was $270). The 2,646-piece released in 2020 alongside the first Lego Super Mario playsets, and this $54 discount is the best we’ve seen in the four years since. This offer is exclusive to Lego Insiders, which is a free rewards program that takes a minute to register for. You’ll also get a free Bakery Lego set and double rewards points with your purchase.

Lego’s take on Nintendo’s iconic console doesn’t just include a buildable version of the machine, it also throws in all the pieces you’ll need to build an old-school CRT TV and stand, NES controller, and a Super Mario Bros. NES cartridge as well. The end result is an intricate display piece., full of interactive elements like a working cartridge slot, rotating dials on the CRT TV, and a crank-operated screen that emulates a Super Mario level. It also has a very charming secret that will delight long-time fans.

If you thought this Lego set could be purchased for less than $270 at one point, you’d be correct. Released in 2020 with a launch price of $230, the Lego NES was one of many sets that received substantial price hikes in 2022. For the past two years, the Lego NES has remained at its $270 price–when it’s available to purchase at all. Major retailers–sometimes all of them–are often out of stock. Amazon has the Lego NES for $255 right now. Prior to Lego’s limited-time deal, the $255 price was the best we had seen in a long time.
