2024 has been the year for LEGO and Space with an array of models releasing from playsets to 18+ display models and now another GWP. We've already seen a LEGO Space-themed Gift With Purchase release in 2024 of 40712 Microscale Rocket Launchpad and now another one has been officially revealed and will be available in just a matter of days.
In particular, this is the 40687 Alien Space Diner which releases as a Gift with Purchase on the 14th of May 2024. With such an action-packed, Space-heavy few months so far from the LEGO theme, this GWP further expands our range of intergalactic models with the 239 pieces included in 40687 used to create a Diner for Aliens and astronauts travelling across the infinite amount of LEGO galaxies.
The GWP features a small space-themed diner which is similar to previous brick-built diners but with added space accessories. For example, some stars, a small rocket and a UFO are all included as mini-builds in 40687's Alien Space Diner. A sign for the the diner is also included which is sadly a sticker not a print of the word 'DINER' in a cool space-like formatting.
A diner can't be complete without a chef and this chef is slightly different as it's a green alien. The alien chef is brick-built and includes three eyes along with two arms in which he can hold his pots, pans, whisks and any other delicious food he cooks up. Two Classic Space Minifigures are also included with one of them being white and the other being orange with the usual Classic Space logo on their torsos.
