LEGO Ideas 40788 The Autumn Snails GWP Rumoured For 1st July 2025

Whilst the LEGO Ideas brand may not be one of the few themes with a set or two launching on the 1st of July 2025, a LEGO Ideas-inspired Gift With Purchase will be available from the start of the seventh month of 2025. This promotional item, in particular, is the winner of 2024's 'Build the Gift of Purchase Set of your Dreams' with Jagamax's The Autumn Snails becoming a reality on the 1st of July 2025. With the set number 40788, the 18+ model includes a total of 264 pieces for a currently unknown threshold.

The set itself is a beautifully crafted nature vignette, displayed on a simple black diorama base and featuring many brick-built elements of our natural world. As the name suggests, two brick-built and incredibly detailed snails comprise most of the display model. In the original submission, the larger snail had an earthy reddish brown coloured shell, whilst the smaller animal came with a navy blue shell design.

The smaller snail in particular could be found on a brown, mossy log stretching across most of the 18+ diorama. The log, just like the rest of the surrounding forest-like scenery, includes a range of building techniques, earthy colours, multiple leaf elements and a couple of mushrooms for further added details. Amongst all this, we could also find traces of slime, small rock elements and a printed Bee in the original submission, which includes just 14 pieces less than the upcoming official model.
