Want to start a heated debate among people of a certain age? Ask them what the best first-generation Pokémon starter is. Some will choose Charmander; personally, I say Squirtle. But judging by his adorable LEGO model, Nick Jensen is more of a Bulbasaur kind of guy! This build is a deceptively small one; I have to keep looking at the parts used in that wonderfully crafted face to remind myself of its true size. The Pokéball base is a nice touch too. It’s so well done, that I would almost consider swapping my allegiance to the grass-type starter team… Almost. (Psst, Nick – do Squirtle next!)

Coming off one of the best deals we’ve seen on the set, Amazon has further discounted the LEGO Icons Atari 2600 (10306) by 40%. This drops the price of it down to $143.99 which saves you a whopping $96 on it. This sale also price matches Target, however, you can save an additional 5% if you have the Circle Card. I highly doubt that we’ll see a bigger sale for this set as it will be retiring at the end of the year. As an Amazon Affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
