Tribute To Galileo Galilei will be your next LEGO Ideas gift with purchase (GWP)
Following the Ready, Set, Go Stem fan vote, the LEGO Ideas team have announced that Tribute to Galileo Galilei by FIRECRACKER_ has won the fan vote, taking first place with 1,432 votes!
The design will then be adapted into an official LEGO Ideas gift with purchase (GWP) set, and will now go into production. Give it about a year-ish, and you should expect this set to be available.

It’s great to see more historical figures make their way into official LEGO sets, and this will be a great addition to the LEGO Ideas GWP lineup.
It joins the following LEGO Ideas Gift with Purchases, and
Up next, we also have Ray the Castaway, the next LEGO Ideas Gift with Purchase which should be available in a couple of months.
Check out the 5 runner-ups below, and their vote tallies.
Oh, and speaking of Gift with Purchases, just a reminder that 40567 Forest Hideout will be available from tomorrow, 15-22 June 2022 from LEGO.com!
