Along with the release of the second largest number of sets of the year, a brand new brick-built Gift With Purchase will also be launching this month. In particular, it's a brand new LEGO tribute set following on from the likes of 40595 Tribute to Galileo Galilei and 40690 Tribute to Jules Verne's Books with the release of 40766 Jane Austen Tribute. The promotional item includes a total of 361 pieces and is available starting from the 19th until the 27th of June 2025 with any purchases over $150.
Jane Austen is one of the world's most famous authors, particularly in English literature, having written plots exploring the dependence of women on marriage for the pursuit of favourable social standing and economic security. Some of the most well-known novels by the English novelist include Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and Persuasion to name a few. These novels continue to captivate readers almost 200 years after her death.
The brick-built LEGO tribute to Jane Austen features an open book build, displayed on a slight angle, recreating her office and the iconic Looking Out The Window painting by Charles Edmund Brock. The brick-built book's exterior is mainly coloured white, medium nugget and dark tan, acting as an 18+ diorama/facade.
The interior, meanwhile, features a light aqua coloured wall where three framed photographs are displayed. There's also a bookshelf, a small desk with a glass cup on it, a fireplace with some flowers on top and a piano. Just above the piano is a white window frame, which also features a red drawn-back curtain. The set is then complete with an exclusive Minifigure of Jane Austen herself, along with a printed tile located in the middle of the model.
