The Lego Ideas Typewriter Set has just received a rare $50 discount. You’ll now find the 2,079-piece building set available for $200 (was $250), though we doubt it’ll stick around for long, as this is the best price yet for this unique display model. The deal is available at Amazon for Prime Big Deal Days and in Target’s Circle Week sale–and since it’ll be retired soon, this might be your last good chance to snag it in general, let alone at a discount.

Lego says the Ideas Typewriter Set will be “retiring soon,” though an exact date isn’t given. And considering the item is frequently unavailable and never sees a price cut, this is the ideal time to finally add it to your collection. What makes the set so popular is that it actually moves and sounds like a real typewriter. You can even feed paper into the machine, making it feel shockingly authentic.
Toss in a typebar that rises whenever a letter is pressed, a carriage that moves as you type, and a design inspired by the typewriter owned by the Lego Group’s founder, and it’s easy to see why the set is frequently sold out.
This is the lowest price of the year, but it’s unlikely to stick around for long.
