September is here and with that we begin to see the end of Summer and the beginning of the autumnal weather. The 1st of September also marks Back to Hogwarts Day and, just like May the Fourth earlier in the year, LEGO will be going all out for the occasion with the release of a brand new D2C of 76437 The Burrow - Collectors' Edition and a total of three Harry Potter themed GWPs.
Like previous months, the rest of September is very much a mystery but we are aware of a third brand new Gift With Purchase of the month. In particular, this is a promotional item under the LEGO Friends theme which has already had a very action-packed 2024 with reports also claiming that 2025 will be just as busy with a total of 19 sets releasing in the first half of next year.
The LEGO Harry Potter theme kicks off September but another brand new GWP in the middle of the month and the possibility of a couple of returning promotional items make for an exciting 30 days but here's what we know so far for September 2024's full selection of GWPs:
30677 Draco In The Forbidden Forest
Our first of three LEGO Harry Potter GWPs is available from today of 30677 Draco In The Forbidden Forest. The Wizarding World polybag was originally released alongside the first wave of LEGO Harry Potter sets for this year which released on the 1st of March 2024. But now LEGO is giving it away with any LEGO Harry Potter purchases over $40 between the 1st and 10th of September 2024.
30677 itself is basically a very small expansion to another LEGO Harry Potter set of 76432 Forbidden Forest: Magical Creatures which also released in March. The polybag includes a very small section of the forbidden forest with a mix of the colours blue, black and purple. An owl is also included along with a spider and of course a young Draco Minifigure. He includes his wand and a lantern which has lost its light.
Set Name - Draco In The Forbidden Forest
Set Number - 30677
Age Range - 6+
Piece Count - 33
Price - GWP over $40
Release Date - 1st to 10th September 2024
40695 Borgin and Burkes: Floo Network
The main LEGO Harry Potter promo for 2024 is 40695 Borgin and Burkes: Floo Network. Just like 30677, it'll be available from the 1st to the 10th of September 2024 but for a much higher threshold of $130. Once again, this does apply to any LEGO Harry Potter purchases regardless if you buy the new D2C of 76437 The Burrow - Collectors' Edition or not.
The Minifigure scale version of the inside of Borgin and Burkes focuses on a small section of the shops interior which includes a display of buyable items, such as the Hand of Glory, and a brick-built fireplace with a Floo Network function. A single Minifigure of Lucious Malfoy is also included in 40695. He comes with a cane and a box of dark objects as his accessories. Lucious can also be placed inside the Floo Network fireplace and then 'disappear' by turning the handle on top.
Set Name - Borgin and Burkes: Floo Network
Set Number - 40695
Age Range - 8+
Piece Count - 190
Price - GWP over $130

5009008 Collectible Weasley Clock
Our final LEGO Harry Potter GWP is the only non-brick-built one of 5009008 Collectible Weasley Clock. The plastic display model of the Weasley's Clock but with LEGO versions of the Burrow and the Weasley family will be exclusive to purchases of 76437 The Burrow - Collectors' Edition. Luckily, like the two previous GWPs, it will be available from today until the 10th of September 2024.
Set Name - Collectible Weasley Clock
Set Number - 5009008
Age Range - 6+
Piece Count - N/A
Price - GWP of 76437 The Burrow - Collectors' Edition
Release Date - 1st to 10th September 2024
40694 River Camping Adventure
Our final confirmed promotional item for September 2024 is 40694 River Camping Adventure. The 6+ model belongs to the LEGO Friends theme which has no new sets launching for the rest of the year suggesting a fairly accessible and reasonable threshold once it becomes available from the 16th of September 2024.
40694 seems to be continuing with the 'Adventure Camp' themed sets that were released in the Summer for the unlicensed theme. The GWP features an orange tent rested against a tree with autumnal coloured leaves - perfect for the upcoming time of the year. Two minidolls are included along with a campfire, a small patch of water and plenty of camping accessories for the two figures and the moulded beaver.
Set Name - River Camping Adventure
Set Number - 40694
Age Range - 6+
Piece Count - 182
Price - TBC GWP
Release Date - 16th September 2024
