**_These Are Highly Sought After Mini-Sets, Polybags, And Collectible Items Gifted From The LEGO® Store Or LEGO® Online Website If You Meet A Certain Purchasing Threshold_**…



GWP, the coveted gift with purchase, is exactly what it sounds like, a small gift given to LEGO® consumers after they reach a certain threshold of spent money on LEGO®. For LEGO® collectors, these sets can be highly sought after and can be resold for a significant sum of money. However, that sum depends on what kind of GWP was offered at the time of the promotion…

## What Types Of GWP Are Offered To Purchasers?



There are medals, medallions, polybags, clothing, and small-scale sets that have all made their way into the treasure trove of LEGO® gift with purchase items. For example, the LEGO® 40712 Micro Rocket Launchpad GWP ended on February 25th, 2024 and was given to anyone who spent $200 on LEGO® purchases. And as of late January into early February 2026, LEGO® 40886 Penguins in Love has been offered as a short-window GWP with $80+ qualifying orders on LEGO.com (while supplies last). But, my personal favorite was the LEGO® Collectible Death Star Coin which was provided as a GWP in May of 2023 for the 40th Anniversary – it looked like a LEGO® hologram from the LEGO® Star Wars video game franchise.



## Are LEGO® Gifts With Purchase A Good Investment For Reselling?



Oh, absolutely! [Gifts with purchases](/okf/posts/lego-lord-of-the-rings/lego-fell-beast-gift-with-purchase-review.md) tend to really appreciate in price – and it makes sense.



These items are given with purchases over a certain threshold and are made in a limited supply. **Furthermore, you received them for free with your purchase, so technically speaking, any money you make from reselling them is instant profit!**



***Notable GWP Price Increases:***



**_5008162 LEGO® Star Wars Collectible Clone Wars E_** – MSRP was free when purchased with LEGO® UCS Venator – **Now reselling for roughly $64.00 – $80.00 (new/sealed) on third-party platforms.**



**_40600 LEGO® Disney 100 Years Celebration_** – MSRP was free when purchased with LEGO® Disney Castle or any purchase of Disney LEGO® sets over $100 – **Now reselling for around $25.00 (often $25.00 – $30.00 new/sealed) on third-party platforms**.



**_40583 LEGO® Houses of the World 1_** – MSRP was free when purchased if you bought over $250.00 worth of LEGO® – **Now reselling for around $30.00 (often $30.00 – $35.00 new/sealed) on third-party platforms.**



## February 2026 GWP Pulse Check



As of February 2026, LEGO® is still running the same playbook: short windows, hard spending thresholds, and “while supplies last” energy. For example, the LEGO® 40886 Penguins in Love GWP (ARV $14.99) has been free with $80+ qualifying orders on LEGO.com from January 29 through February 6, 2026 — and promos like that are exactly why I try to stack my buys with 2x Insider points whenever they pop up.



## Try To Get Your Hands On LEGO® GWPs When Possible



You can follow this typical [LEGO® investing strategy](/okf/pages/lego-investing.md) before a GWP LEGO® set retires: Stock up on your LEGO® VIP Points, set a budget for what LEGO® sets you want to resell or add to your collection, combine this with a Double VIP Points day/time/promo, and ensure a GWP is being offered.



If you can align these four criteria for a stock-up session on a mass LEGO® purchasing session, you can get the most out of your collection, purchases, and LEGO® investments!
