This will join a long list of GWPs inspired by Chinese New Year animal. In the past we’ve had a Tiger, Dog, Rat, Pig, Monkey and so many more, this is the first time a Dragon has been produced. We had a glimpse of this new set in December 2023, but today LEGO have officially listed it on their website along with hi-res images.

We expect details of the spend threshold and conditions very soon. If rumours are true then we can expect to see this from 20th to 31st January with a spend requirement of £80/$85, accompanied by double Insiders points.
