LEGO Masters Season 3 – Grand Finale Recap
It’s grand finale night. After 13 episodes of intense LEGO building we will tonight find out who gets to lift the LEGO Masters trophy for 2021.
Before we begin we get a recap of the journey so far. I watched all the episodes, I don’t need to see this bit.
The brick pit is clean and ready to go. The trophy is there for the taking. Let’s go!
Our teams arrive and they all look incredibly excited.
LEGO Masters Season 3 – Episode 13 Recap
It’s time for the penultimate episode. Today we find out the three teams that will be competing in tomorrow night’s Grand Finale.
Our top 4 teams arrive and immediately spot a giant tree. It’s a very impressive tree.
Hamish reminds us that today is an elimination build.
Today’s build is called “Out on a limb”. Each team will get one limb from the tree and they’ve got free rein to build something that fits in on a tree.
On Sale: 20% off at Target
Target has 20% off LEGO.
That’s pretty much all there is to it. Unlike certain other retailers Target has no exclusions and you don’t need to buy multiple sets to qualify. Simple.
You can check out their range here.
The offer ends Wednesday May 26th so you’ve got plenty of time for this one.
On Sale: 20% off at Myer, kind of
It’s Super Weekend at Myer again.
This time around the offer is 40% of your second item when you buy two or more items. The way this actually works is that Myer will give you 20% off everything if you purchase two or more eligible items. The sale probably works the way it’s meant to in-store.
There are of course all of the usual exclusions such as Ideas, Creator Export, Black packaging adult sets. Items that are included will be marked with the Buy more & save label. Interestingly the Nintendo Entertainment System is included.
