Our most demanded LEGO magazine ever is available again –Blocks Book of Retro LEGO sets is fresh off the printers and available to order.
For more than a year, the original Blocks Book of Retro LEGO Sets: Space, Castle and Pirates has been out of stock and we have had more emails and messages about it than any other topic! So we have reprinted this special edition, 132-page LEGO magazine and you can order it again now.
Orders will start shipping when it arrives in our warehouse on November 6, so if it’s a gift, you will have it in plenty of time for Christmas. We do recommend ordering sooner rather than later though as there are sometimes postal strikes over the holidays.
