If you're looking for presents for retro gaming nerds already so you can get ahead of the curve, then I've got a cracking deal for you that will help you save your hard-earned cash. I always like to spread out my shopping when it comes to Christmas or important birthdays/milestones, just so you don't have to splash all your cash at once, and I'll be posting a different deal every day in the run-up to Christmas to help you get prepared and save your pennies at the same time.
The LEGO Game Boy is an amazing set that I thoroughly enjoyed building. The pieces fit together cleverly, and the addition of having movable switches and buttons you can actually press is fantastic. Add in the fact that you can make game cartridges with stickers and the lenticular screens, and it becomes one of the best display pieces for any retro gaming fan.
The build itself won't take you forever as it's not that intricate a set. It's something that you could probably put together on a long rainy afternoon, but once it's done, you can display it forever. Or, you can add the Brick boy kit to it and turn it into a real-life working Game Boy!
