Five best LEGO sets to instantly qualify for Northern Lights GWP

If you’re looking to purchase a single LEGO set in order to secure a copy of 40785 Northern Lights Diorama, here are five must-have models.

Two new Insiders promotions went live on LEGO.com yesterday, with members able to score double points on all purchases (equivalent to 10% cashback on future shopping selections), alongside 40785 Northern Lights Diorama, a GWP free with £135 / $150 / €150 spends and over.

Those looking for a quick win in order to take advantage of both offers at the same time can always buy one single must-have LEGO at that threshold or above, to walk away with twice the Insiders points as usual and a bonus build to boot.

With that in mind, here are our recommendations for five such LEGO models that will instantly qualify you for double Insiders points and a copy of 40785 Northern Lights Diorama.

1 – 21358 Minifigure Vending Machine

Priced at £149.99 / $179.99 / €169.99, 21358 Minifigure Vending Machine is a truly satisfying building experience. The 1,343-piece LEGO Ideas set comes with an impressive 16 minifigures, each contained within their own capsules, which can be released from the working slot machine with a satisfying turn of the handle.

2 – 10357 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C

Racing fans will definitely want to take note of 10357 Shelby Cobra 427 S/C, a 1,241-piece LEGO Icons build that makes for a truly eye-catching display model. Available for £139.99 / $159.99 / €159.99, the classic car boasts opening doors, boot and bonnet, a detailed engine bay, toolbox, fire extinguisher and even a $100 bill element in recognition of the vehicle’s storied history.

3 – 10358 Soundwave

There’s plenty to like about 10358 Soundwave, the first-ever brick-built version of the Transformers Decepticon to date. In addition to being able to switch to cassette tape mode and back, the LEGO Icons set comes with separate Ravage and Laserbeak builds, a unique sound brick and printed information plaque, all for £159.99 / $189.99 / €179.99.

4 – 72037 Mario & Standard Kart

The LEGO Super Mario theme welcomed 72037 Mario & Standard Kart to its line-up this year, a 1,972-piece creation priced at £149.99 / $169.99 / €169.99. The 32cm long model features a poseable version of Mario and a stand to display his kart at dynamic racing angles, plus LEGO Insiders members can also add a Spiny Shell reward to their video game collections for just 2,500 points.

5 – 10352 The Simpsons: Krusty Burger

Rounding out our list of essential purchases is 10352 The Simpsons: Krusty Burger, a 1,635-piece LEGO Icons set that can be yours for £179.99 / $209.99 / €199.99. The Springfield fast food eatery includes seven minifigures, with the model opening up to reveal a detailed interior complete with kitchen, dining area and much more.

Note that the double LEGO Insiders points offer and the free 40785 Northern Lights Diorama GWP both expire on October 20, 2025, so you’ll need to have made all of your must-have purchases by that date.
