LEGO Taco Stand GWP Set Available in LEGO Stores in Mexico

LEGO Mexico unveils a collectible gift-with-purchase (GWP) set inspired by the iconic taco stand, available exclusively in LEGO Stores across Mexico. LEGO fans in Mexico are in for a treat as the LEGO Group’s Mexican division introduces the new LEGO Taco Stand GWP set centered around the famous taco stand. This limited edition set promises to be a delightful addition to any LEGO collection, especially if you’re into building and collecting LEGO City sets.

Discovering the LEGO Taco Stand GWP

The LEGO Store in Mexico, known as legostoresmx on Instagram, has officially announced the arrival of a new and exciting gift-with-purchase. This particular GWP set pays homage to the beloved Mexican culinary tradition of tacos and captures the essence of a vibrant Taco stand in the form of LEGO bricks.

Exclusive Availability of the LEGO Taco Stand GWP Set at LEGO Certified Stores in Mexico

lego taco stand gwp

This LEGO promotional set, named and certified as LCS MX Special GWP Taco Stand, is specifically designated for LEGO-certified stores in Mexico. The title itself indicates that this unique set will remain exclusive to LEGO enthusiasts within Mexico’s borders. This exclusivity adds an extra layer of allure to the LEGO Taco Stand GWP, especially since it is made clear that it will not be offered anywhere else.

Limited Time Availability and Pricing Details

Though the official announcement makes it clear that the LEGO Taco Stand GWP has already been rolled out starting May 12, it does not specify until when the offer will expire. But it is right to assume that the LEGO Taco Stand GWP set will be available in Mexico for a limited period, or until supplies last.

To secure this collectible set, LEGO customers will need to make a qualifying purchase of $3,999 MXN, equivalent to around $227 USD as per current currency conversion rates.

Taking a Closer Look at LEGO Taco Stand GWP Set

The LEGO Taco Stand GWP set showcases an intricately designed build that features a minifigure cook positioned behind a counter. Alongside the minifigure, a trompo (or a traditional rotating meat grill) and an assortment of toppings await for LEGO minifigures to craft and enjoy their perfect taco creation. An eye-catching archway adorns the backdrop, housing two bowls and a counter design promoting the LEGO tacos.

Will There be Building Instructions for This?

Due to the set’s distinct name and thematic focus, it is highly unlikely that the LEGO Taco Stand GWP will be available outside of Mexico. Nevertheless, for those residing elsewhere who desire to experience the joy of this taco stand-inspired set, the possibility of recreating is not far-fetched. If the unique designs on the set are not printed, LEGO fans can somehow replicate this build. Especially if there’s a kind soul out there might share the building instructions in creating this piece.

LEGO collectors and fans of Mexican cuisine alike can rejoice as the LEGO Taco Stand GWP set offers a captivating and exclusive addition to LEGO collections. With its intricate design and vibrant representation of a cultural icon, this limited edition set promises to be a cherished item for LEGO fans in Mexico.

LEGO Pirate Ship Playground (40589) Promotional Set Officially Revealed

Last week, we caught a glimpse of what could be our next gift-with-purchase (or GWP) set following other promotional freebies such as the LEGO Flowerpot and LEGO Houses of the World 2. And thanks to LEGO Australia’s home shopping portal, we now get to see the official images and product description of the LEGO Pirate Ship Playground (40589).

This latest GWP set comes in at 168 pieces and includes two children minifigures in their pirate garb. The build itself is a playful, brick-built take on a mini pirate ship as our minifigure characters will have it. Plus, it also includes a slide, a cute rotating octopus, a treasure chest, and a palm tree. The playfulness of this set is somehow reminiscent of what we can find from last year’s LEGO VIP exclusive gift which is the Pirate Adventure Ride (6432431) and LEGO Ideas Cosmic Cardboard Adventures (40533).

LEGO Pirate Ship Playground

Valued at $30, there is no word yet on how much you need to spend online or in-store to bag this freebie. If LEGO intends to have this as a Children’s Day gift as the product description suggests, then we might see a release date sometime in June. Children’s Day in the US is celebrated every June 11 so we might see a release date for the LEGO Pirate Ship Playground around the first week of June.

Check out the rest of the details of this promotional set as seen over at LEGO.com. Stay tuned for future updates on this promotional set’s availability.

LEGO Flowerpot (40588) Gift-With-Purchase Set Officially Revealed

Following the official reveal of the LEGO Houses of the World 2, we now have another promotional set that deserves a spot in your LEGO flora collection. The beautifully brick-rendered LEGO Flowerpot (40588) is our next gift-with-purchase set to watch out for.

LEGO Flowerpot

Currently listed on LEGO’s Australian web store, the LEGO Flowerpot is valued at $40 and comes in at 292 pieces. As of this post, this promotional set is not yet listed at LEGO.com US and details on how to redeem this set are not yet published. But given the value of this set, it is likely that it may also be offered for free once you reach a minimum LEGO spend of $250 or more.

The LEGO Flowerpot is inspired by LEGO’s Botanical Collection featuring several springtime favorites such as cherry blossoms and billy buttons. Its box art comes in a predominantly lavender color and also bears LEGO’s limited-edition branding at the bottom.

I’ll keep you posted once more details come in, especially about this set’s promo mechanics. In the meantime, check out the rest of its product details and images below.

LEGO Houses of the World 2 (40590) Promotional Set Officially Revealed

Following a sneak peek of our next wave of LEGO GWP sets, LEGO.com has now been updated to include official images and product description of the LEGO Houses of the World 2 (40590). As the name suggests, this GWP (or gift-with-purchase) set is the second promotional offering following the modular and South American-inspired LEGO Houses of the World 1 (40583).

LEGO Houses of the World 2

Coming in at 270 pieces, LEGO Houses of the World 2 takes its inspiration from the aesthetic designs of North African homes as mentioned in its official product description. However, I can’t help but notice that it has also certain design elements coming from homes in the Middle East such as in Saudi Arabia.

LEGO Houses of the World 2 is valued at $20 and is the second set out of four from this particular series. And if it will follow its predecessor’s offering price point, then we can somewhat assume that this promotional set may be added to your cart for free once you reach a a minimum spend of $250. I have to admit that as a GWP set, it has an  outrageously high redemption price as compared to earlier promotions. But if you’re looking forward to bagging premium LEGO Icons sets such as The Lord of the Rings: Rivendell (10316), or  the Loop Coaster (10303), then you may want to time your purchases accordingly once the LEGO Houses of the World 2 promo goes live.

I’ll keep you posted once more details about this promotional item is released. For now, check out these crystal clear images.

More LEGO Limited Edition Gift-With-Purchase Sets Coming Soon 

If you’re a fan of LEGO’s premium, promotional sets, then you will be glad to know that more LEGO limited edition gift-with-purchase sets are coming this April and beyond. Although the images are not optimal and quite blurry, brief product descriptions have been released by LEGO allowing us to have a sneak peek, and we are here to give you a sneak peek of what we can expect from them.

LEGO Limited Edition Gift-With-Purchase Box Design

According to a report by Stonewars, we can expect three promotional sets to be offered and revealed anytime soon. Following the design template of their predecessor particularly that from the LEGO Houses of the World 1 (40583), their unique box design adds to the exclusivity of these gifts and makes them even more desirable. With parts ranging somewhere between 168 and 292 pieces, each set has a unique theme that will surely appeal to a wide range of customers.

And though these images might be quite blurry for now, you can still have a good grasp on what we can expect from them. Furthermore, a quick search of LEGO’s building instructions page shows that these sets are already added to their database. Only their respective set names, numbers, and a picture placeholder can be seen as of now. But it suggests that an official product page for these LEGO limited edition gift-with-purchase sets are eventually coming soon. Take a look.

Availability and Redemption

While we are eagerly anticipating the release of these sets, it’s still unclear when they will be available as free gifts in the LEGO online shop or brand stores. In some cases, sets such as the LEGO Architecture World of Wonders (40585) released last month may only be available as a VIP bonus for those who have accumulated enough points. It is still unclear at this point if these three LEGO limited edition gift-with-purchase sets will follow the same marketing strategy. Additionally, the exact availability periods and minimum order values are also yet to be confirmed.

You don’t need to worry though. I’ll keep you posted on the latest information regarding these exciting new sets. Once their official product announcement goes live on LEGO’s campaign page, you can find the full conditions for redemption. Keep an eye out for these updates, and of course, keep tabs on our blog site for more details so you don’t miss out on any of these amazing sets.

Special thanks once again to Stone Wars for the heads-up.

This 368-piece promotional gift features a cute brick bunny inside a basket full of flowers. The bunny itself comes with a pair of poseable ears and a moveable head for a more wide and dynamic range of display features. Personally, I believe this is one of the best LEGO Seasonal sets out there in terms of aesthetics.

But since LEGO is offering another promotional set in the form of the LEGO City 4×4 Off-Road Ambulance Rescue (40582) from February 10-27, 2023, then we can somewhat expect the Moving Truck to follow soon.

LEGO Architecture World of Wonders (40585) GWP Set Coming Soon

LEGO.com’s customer service portal, particularly its building instructions page, may have given us a glimpse of the next gift-with-purchase we can expect any time soon. The LEGO Architecture World of Wonders (40585) set is the next LEGO promotional set that fans of the Architecture theme may want to add to their collection.


UPDATE (February 2, 2023): The LEGO  World of Wonders (40585) is now listed at LEGO’s VIP Rewards Center. For 2,700 VIP points, you can redeem a promo code that you can use for the next 60 days if you’re planning to make any LEGO purchases any time soon. If you’re looking forward to some of the March and April sets, while bagging this exclusive freebie at the same time, then planning your next purchase ahead will all be worth it. 


First is the LEGO World of Wonders (40585) which costs 2,700 points. The other gift is the Birthday Diorama (40584) which costs 2,100 points to get. Once you redeem the codes, you’ll have 60 days to use them so if there isn’t any catching your eye this month, you can wait until March when the next larger release schedule is happening.

Though there are no specifics yet regarding when and how to claim it, the LEGO Architecture World of Wonders (40585) microscale model is expected to weigh in at 382 pieces and features some of the world’s new Seven Wonders of the World.  This freebie of a set features miniature brick-built replicas of The Parthenon, The Great Wall of China, Al-Khazneh, and the Taj Mahal.

LEGO World of Wonders

40585 2 40585 3

To date, the LEGO Architecture theme has produced replicas of some of these new wonders of the world. And it’s cool to see how LEGO designers captured the likes of the LEGO Architecture Great Wall of China (21041) and Taj Mahal (21056) sets into microscale formats with this latest promotional offering. I am a fan of microscale models, so I’m looking forward to seeing this gift-with-purchase up close and personal. I hope LEGO will throw in some printed tiles instead of stickers for a premium GWP set like this one.

Currently, there is no official product listing for this new promotional set aside to this link pointing at its building instructions. But given its value and features, I say this will definitely come at a higher price point for qualifying purchases. I’ll keep this updated once new information comes in.
