Score Free LEGO GWPs: Spend Thresholds & Dates for August.
We’ve officially turned the calendar to August 1st—and you know what that means: fresh LEGO® Gift-With-Purchase (GWP) sets are here, ready for you to claim! LEGO Insiders even get exclusive early access to some of these minis, so whether you’re a rewards member or just planning your build haul, now’s the time to stock up. We love a new GWP almost as much as the builds themselves—and who can blame us? These exclusive mini-sets have become a beloved ritual among LEGO® fans of all stripes, from dedicated collectors hunting rare pieces to casual builders looking for a fun weekend project. Whether you’re a video-game-themed devotee, a botanical buff or a BrickHeadz™ enthusiast, the August 2025 GWPs promise something special for everyone—and they’re free with qualifying purchases, while stocks last.
Maximizing Returns with August’s Limited-Edition LEGO GWPs.
Cooper’s Flying Controller Mini Build (30698)
GWP period: 1–7 August 2025
Threshold: Spend £35 / €40 or more on LEGO DREAMZzz, NINJAGO, Friends or City
Cooper is back at it—this time flying a video-game controller! The 30698 Mini Build may be compact, but it’s packed with detail: sculpted “joysticks” serve as landing gear, and the detachable spider sidekick adds a playful twist. The accompanying minifigure wears Cooper’s signature goggles and gaming-themed torso, making this little set as collectible as it is buildable. It’s the perfect desktop companion for any gamer-builder—and at just £35 / €40 spent on qualifying lines, it’s practically a steal.
Botanicals Field Flowers (30701)
GWP period: 1–11 August 2025
Threshold: Spend £25 / €25 on LEGO Botanicals
Bring the beauty of the outdoors inside with the 30701 Wildflower Posy. This GWP includes three distinct stems—an airy dandelion clock, a bright dandelion blossom and a textured ear of wheat—each rendered in realistic brick form. Plant lovers and hobbyists alike will appreciate the authentic shapes and neutral palette, making it a tasteful accent for any shelf or bedside table. At only £25 / €25 spent on Botanicals, this serene bouquet is a delightful reward for any green fingered person.
Fortnite Adventure Peely & Cuddle Team Leader (40760)
GWP period: 4–11 August 2025 (Insiders early access 1–3 August)
Threshold: Spend £115 / €130 on any LEGO set (excl. 75409 & 21359)
Two of Fortnite’s most iconic characters join the BrickHeadz lineup in this 258-piece duo: Adventure Peely, complete with his trusty Grappler, and Cuddle Team Leader, armed with a miniature Pickaxe. These blocky busts capture their video-game personalities in brick form, from Peely’s jaunty banana grin to Cuddle Team Leader’s fluffy pink hood. Perfect for gamers aged 10+ or anyone wanting a playful shelf display, this GWP turns your UK £115 / €130 purchase into a dynamic keepsake—Insiders get first dibs from 1–3 August, with general availability from the 4th.
With LEGO’s August lineup now live, these GWPs make an already exciting month even sweeter. Whether you’re picking up a new City set, treating yourself to a botanical build or diving into the latest Fortnite crossover, be sure to hit the qualifying spend and snag one—or all three—of these limited-time freebies before they disappear!
