New April 2023 LEGO GWPs revealed includes 40590 Houses of the World 2 and more

March 28, 2023 | 5

LEGO.com has officially unveiled a slew of new LEGO gift with purchases (GWP) that are presumably coming in April 2023.

Update: 40590 Houses of the World 2, will be available from LEGO.com as a free gift with a likely spend of US$250 / AU$400 / £220 / €250 or more from 1 – 9 April 2023.

40588 Flowerpot will be available from 14 to 24 April when you spend US$150 / €150 / £130 on LEGO.com

• 40590 Houses of the World 2 (270 pieces)
• 40588 Flowerpot (292 pieces)
• 40589 Pirate Ship Playground

There are 3 new GWPs to look forward to, and just as predicted, with the start of a 2nd quarter, we get 40590 Houses of the World 2, based on North African architecture, as well as a really great-looking 40588 Flowerpot which will slot in nicely into the Botanical Collection.

And rounding out the trio is 40589 Pirate Ship Playground, which is a cute little homage to LEGO Pirates, and hopefully a sign that LEGO will cast their nostalgic eye on LEGO Pirates next.

Unfortunately, we do not have any release dates, or GWP purchase thresholds at this stage, so we’ll have to wait for LEGO to officially announce them, but I expect a high threshold for Houses of the World 2 as the first one was one of the priciest GWPs with a US$250 / AU$400 / £220 / €250 threshold.

Take this with a grain of salt, but I feel that Flowerpot will be nice and affordable and timed for Mother’s Day, and 40589 Pirate Ship Playground will be a VIP Centre reward, but we’ll need to wait for official confirmation.

40590 Houses of the World 2

Welcome home! Here’s the second addition to the LEGO® Houses of the World collection – a beautiful North African house (40590). Build the architectural details and admire the traditional, colorful, North African interior decor. The modular design makes it easy to combine this house with others from the collection (40583, 40594 and 40599) – each available separately.
