Lego Atari 2600 Is Over $100 Off In Target’s Early Black Friday Sale

Target’s Early Black Friday Sale is loaded with over 100 Lego deals, including a fantastic deal on the Atari 2600 model kit. The 2,532-piece Lego set retails for $240, but you can get it for only $135 through Saturday, November 9–or until it sells out, and it’s very likely to sell out before then. Amazon is matching this deal, though stock is already running low.

This is a great set for experienced builders. Once you’ve assembled it, you’ll have a replica console with functioning switches, a brick-built Atari joystick designed to move like the original controller, and even several cartridges to display.

It’s worth pointing out that this is an Atari console in looks only, but the other retro surprise includes a hidden gaming room straight out of the ’80s. This a small diorama and includes small details like a retro landline phone, TV, posters, and a boom box.

The buildable cartridges are also based on real games like Asteroids, Centipede, and Adventure. The cartridges can be stored in a case and built into mini 3D vignette versions of the games. Finally, the console includes a switch to toggle for color or black-and-white television sets.

The Atari 2600 is the most affordable of the three Lego sets celebrating retro video game hardware. The Nintendo Entertainment System and Pac-Man Arcade kits very rarely budge from their $270 price points. The Lego NES, meanwhile, is often sold out at major retailers, including now, but you can get it at the Lego Store. Target has the Lego NES listed for a slight discount right now–Amazon sold out at the same price.
