How to score the LEGO Ideas Sailboat Adventure (40487) GWP

It’s almost August 2021 where there’s a heap of new releases ready to drop on LEGO.com, like the UCS Republic Gunship or the Volkswagen T2 Campervan, or if you’re in North America – all the June/Summer releases.

To sweeten the deal, the 40487 Sailboat Adventures set will be available as a Gift with Purchase from LEGO.com, from 1 August onwards when you spend US$200 / £200 / AU$279 online.

LEGO VIP members get early access, from 1 – 3 August 2021, before the general release, which will be available from 4 – 29 August while stocks last.

This is a massively substantial gift with purchase (which explains the high purchase threshold), coming in at 330 pieces, and this year’s Vintage Car GWP as the second LEGO Ideas Gift with Purchase.

The set was the winner of the LEGO Ideas Dream Holiday contest, and designed by talented LEGO Instagrammer and Photographer @yc_solo.

This set is going to be exceedingly popular, not just because of its incredibly charming design, but as there are several big ticket sets and themes dropping on 1 August 2021, so I can absolutely see this one selling out immediately, so plan your purchases accordingly!

The LEGO Ideas 40487 Sailboat Adventures set will be available as a Gift with Purchase from LEGO.com, from 1 August onwards when you spend US$200 / £200 / AU$279 online.

What do you think of the LEGO Ideas Sailboat Adventure set? Will you be trying to hit the purchase threshold to qualify for the set?

    I’ve been waiting for a decent GWP before I order a couple of things (I’m thinking F.R.I.E.N.D.S Apartments together with Seinfeld) but the extremely limited nature of the freebie annoys me, having missed out on January’s car (I think I might have been waiting for a new set to be released at the time) , as it’s going to benefit resellers more than more selective buyers. They should make enough of these things to last a few weeks, if not the whole month, rather than have them go out of stock in days if not hours.

    I’d love this, but I’m too old to go through all the hoops required to make sure I’m first in the queue. It’d be great if Lego has actually made enough of them for everyone who will doubtless want one. I’ll have a go at a civilised hour on Sunday if there’s anything I want that’s actually in stock.
