In early June, LEGO announced that they would be increasing prices across the portfolio of sets from August and September 2022 onwards.
LEGO, like every other company and business operating in this environment of high inflation has had to bite the bullet and raise prices, in response to things like energy, labour, materials and logistics going up, which naturally was a hard bullet to bite among LEGO fans.
Apart from an initial early list of prices in the EU from German blog Stonewars, we didn’t really have an idea of what to expect, until now.
Thanks to American retailer Barnes & Noble, we now have a partial list of which LEGO sets are going up in price, and by how much in the USA.
I’ve spent the better part of this afternoon browsing through the whole list, and have compiled this table which gives you a snapshot at the price changes, and the amounts they’re going up by.
It’s a bit of a mixed bag, but as stated by LEGO, it seems to mostly affect sets at the higher end of the spectrum, especially those targeted at adults and AFOLs. They also are consistent with the 5-20% band that was rumoured.
Do note that this list likely isn’t final, or complete, as they may update the prices further, and we won’t have an accurate snapshot until prices officially change on LEGO.com.
There are some oddities here, like the Flower Bouquet going up by 20% (ouch!) but the rest of the Botanical Collection staying the same price – not sure if this is because Barnes and Noble hasn’t updated the other prices yet.
Most importantly, the availability of this list will be really useful to help you plan any purchases before they officially go up in August and September 2022. If there’s anything on the list here, it’s a great time to pick them up on LEGO’s Double VIP points offer on 12-13 July or on Amazon Prime Day which also falls on 12-13 July.
