LEGO 40689 Firework Celebrations GWP available now – but Jules Verne vanishes

A brand new LEGO gift-with-purchase is now available with qualifying orders online and in-store, but 40690 Tribute to Jules Verne has seemingly sold out prematurely.

40689 Firework Celebrations is available from today through July 7 with all orders above £75 / $85 / €85 at LEGO.com and in LEGO Stores, which means you can grab it while picking up the new July 2024 sets or pre-ordering your favourite August 2024 sets. What you can’t do is stack it with 40690 Tribute to Jules Verne online, because that’s now disappeared completely from LEGO.com.

The historical tribute gift-with-purchase was originally scheduled to be available through June 30, and was still available yesterday in the UK, US and Europe. But whether it really has coincidentally sold out just as the next promo starts or the LEGO Group simply realised it didn’t want to give two promotional sets away at once, you won’t be able to score them both in a single order as hoped.

40689 Firework Celebrations at least has a relatively low qualifying threshold, so you can pick it up by buying only 10338 Bumblebee, for example, which launches July 1 and is available to pre-order now. The intention with this one is presumably for it to be available through July 4, or firework high season in the US, but it’s tough to say at this point whether stocks will last that long.

I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that’s not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It’s like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then.
