Reg. $50/$42.50

Amazon is now offering the first discount on the new LEGO Ideas Tales of the Space Age set. It just launched earlier this year, and is now dropping down to $42.49 shipped. You’d more regularly pay $50, with today’s offer delivering a new all-time low. This is also of course the only price cut we’ve seen to date. We break down what to expect from the set below the fold, or you can get the full scoop in our launch coverage.

LEGO’s Tales of the Space Age set is one of the latest Ideas creations to hit the scene. The more display-worthy creation take a more retro approach to turning bricks into a collectible, stacking up to four different scenes from amongst the stars. Each of these builds arrive as postcard-sized works of art that depict everything from a cluster of comets soaring through the sky to Martian terrain, retro rockets blasting off into space, and even the ambient atmosphere of a planet resting beneath a ring of a glowing green celestial body.

The builds have 3D elements to them that can be hung up on display or just showed off up on a shelf. It’s such a neat set for those who want to get into LEGO but aren’t swayed by the massive Star Wars vehicles, flowers, and other more collectible builds.
