Lego is a constant gift for a lot of people, and if you’re looking to get anyone a gift, and you’re not sure what to buy them, then going for a Lego set is a great shout. The fact is that you can buy a set for just about anything at this point, but if you’re looking for a gift for someone who’s a big fan of Star Wars, Lego is one of the best things to check out. There’s a mass of different sets to choose from here, and today, we’ve found a great deal on one.

Of the many fantastic characters in the Star Wars universe, few are as beloved as R2-D2, the little droid who’s full of sass and beeps and boops. Well, you can get your very own one by grabbing yourself this Lego Star Wars R2-D2 Set while it’s 20% off, meaning it’s $80 for a limited time. We don’t this deal is going to last for long, so don’t wait for too long.

This Is The Droid You’re Looking For

As with any Lego set, the first bit of joy this will get whoever you buy it is building it. This one’s going to take a bit longer to put together than many others though, as it has a whopping 1,050 pieces to put together, which is a good few hours of work for all but the most experienced brick builders. It’s always fun to sit down with someone and work your way through sets like this, and all you need for this one is another Lego fan, which is unlikely to be hard to manage.

Once it’s been put together, you’ll have an R2-D2 you can play with and change up with rotations and new tools to add or detach. It comes with an R2-D2 mini-figure as well, which you can keep by the special commemorative plaque that it comes with too. It’s a wonderful little kit which will bring hours of fun to whoever you buy it for.

There’s no way of knowing just how long this deal is going to last, which means that if you do want to grab yourself this while it’s down to $80, then you’re going to need to be quick. If you wait too long and miss out on this discount, you’re going to kick yourself, and you’ll have to wait until the next sale happens, and there’s no way of knowing when that will be.
