Thank your own personal deity—possibly Big Brother Bot—it's Friday! Today is very much about Astro Bot, the star of the moment that's garnering many a 10/10 to enjoy a braggable "94" on Metacritic. As somebody who's 100%ed the pants off of it already, I can confidently say that paying $89 instead of 110 bucks is a wise investment you won't regret.

There are a lot of LEGO sets you can choose from in 2024, but some of the most enticing builds are the LEGO sets for adults specifically. These are sets that are made to be pieced together and displayed, rather than played with as a simple toy. And while there are quite a few options that could easily swing either way on the age spectrum, the LEGO architecture sets are perhaps the most adult option you'll find.

Amazon Has Some Great Deals on LEGO Architecture Sets Right Now

6-Pack - $29.94. I love it when a new batch of minifigures comes out. The latest set is based on a relatively recent LEGO license property: D&D. We covered the impressive LEGO Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale set and had a blast putting it together. This new set of 12 minifigures features characters like Tiefling Sorcerer, Elf Bard, and Halfling Druid, and they come in either individual or a 6-pack of mystery boxes. Let’s hope these minifigures signal we can expect more D&D sets in the future.

It feels like every few months or so, we’re writing about another price hike. Often, we’re talking about subscription services such as Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, PlayStation Plus, or Xbox Game Pass.

The PS5 pricing jumped everywhere except the United States in 2022, and the Xbox Series X followed suit one year later. Now, we’re watching hardware prices rise yet again – this time on the PS5 in Japan.
