Whether you’re a parent with Lego-loving children or just a big kid yourself, there’s no denying the fact that Lego can be enjoyed by anyone. And now you can love it in new ways following the launch of the Smart Brick, which made its debut at CES in January earlier this year.

The Lego Smart Brick represents the biggest change to the popular building blocks in nearly 50 years, and adds an extra layer of interactivity, as it can trigger lights and sounds in various situations.

Do note that only three of the eight sets come with the all-important Smart Brick included — these are identified as ‘All-in-One’. The other five are labelled as ‘Compatible’ and will require you to get one of the All-in-One sets in order for them to work. Fortunately, these necessary sets have received some of the biggest discounts.
