French-style Black Friday 2020 is finally here and Cdiscount opens the ball with an offer that allows you to be offered the 3rd LEGO set purchased. You will need to remember to use the code LEGOBF20 when checking out.

As usual, you can expect to get a maximum reduction of 33% if you buy three products at the same price or three times the same product, the latter possibility being limited by the sign which offers to add only two copies of the same product in shopping cart.

The selection of products concerned by this offer, which will be valid until December 6, is however quite substantial, but do not take too much into account the crossed out prices displayed by the sign, they are for the most part completely fanciful.

LEGO today unveils the LEGO Technic set 42122 Jeep Wrangler, a box of 665 pieces which will be marketed from January 1, 2021 at the public price of 49.99 € / 59.90 CHF.

The vehicle is 12cm high, 24cm long and 13cm wide.

We will talk about this box tomorrow on the occasion of a "Review ".
