If you're into PC gaming, you're likely into Lego. No, I won't be taking any questions at this time. And as one of the many Lego fans on the PC Gamer hardware team, I have taken it upon myself to thrust three excellent Lego Amazon Prime Day deals upon you, so you too can experience the joy of aching thumbs while building another model to add to your collection.
The cheapest starts at a mere $22, making it a perfect early stocking filler purchase, while the other two have significantly large discounts that make them a downright bargain, if you ask me. I've built all three of these kits, and can confirm they're pretty much the best way to spend a Sunday afternoon I can think of. Come with me, my friends. We're going Lego shopping.

Lego Speed Champions Ferrari F40
Everyone loves this car. Well, everyone who visits my house, anyway. There's something ultimately iconic about the Ferrari F40, from its lurid red color scheme to its wildly chonky rear wing, and as a result this model is often grabbed from my shelves the second a visitor sees it.
It's also a brilliant kit to build, with a remarkably robust and dense design that also makes it suitable for children to play with (ages 9 and up, of course). Most Lego falls apart when subjected to clumsy hands, but this one has been zoomed around my floors by all and sundry, and lived to tell the tale.
I may have done some of that zooming myself. What, we're all big kids really, aren't we?
Lego McLaren MP4/4 & Ayrton Senna
This Lego Icons McLaren MP4/4 kit is the most recent addition to my collection, and one I'm simply in love with. It's a remarkably good representation of one of the most iconic (and most successful) Formula One cars of all time, and Lego really hasn't skimped on the details.
Beyond being a ton of fun to build, what you're left with is a model that looks fantastic to display, complete with a tilting stand to show it off at its best angle. You can also remove the rear engine cowling to see the details of the turbocharged V6 underneath, complete with shiny parts that glint under the light.
The colors are spot on, the proportions are perfect, and everything looks and feels exactly as it should. I hunt for F1 models all the time, and can tell you that most of them are poor representations of the actual car. This one? It's brilliant, and invites much cooing and cawing from all who behold it.
Lego Millennium Falcon 25th Anniversary
Look, we all want the Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon Ultimate Collector Edition, don't we? There are a couple of issues though. One, it's currently $850, which is a teeth-clenching sum that few of us can drop on a model of a pretend spaceship, and two, it's absolutely massive.
So, with a somewhat heavy heart, I bought this much cheaper 25th Anniversary Edition instead. And let me tell you, the model I've ended up with is downright superb.
Far from being a disappointment, this particular version of the ship that made the Kessel run in under 12 parsecs delights at every turn. It's a slightly tricky build, which should be good news for those that like a challenge, but the model you end up with makes a perfect display piece for any Star Wars fan.
I particularly enjoy all the greebles and detailing on the top surface, which is both representative of the movie prop and very interesting to build. So much thought has gone into the design here, including hiding single-color Lego pieces inside its frame to represent Luke, Han, Chewie, and Leia sitting at the iconic holographic chessboard.
And yes, I have absolutely whooshed it around my house making space noises when no-one else was looking, and you will too. That's the best thing about Lego—you get a fun afternoon of building a model, then a display piece/toy afterwards that will forever make you proud of your achievement.
Kids stuff, you say? Not a bit of it. I'm a grown-ass man, and I'll stand behind every single kit on this list. You've got to have a little fun with your time on this planet, haven't you?
