Top 3 Sets to Buy on New Years Eve if You're a Loser with No Social Life

Folks, we're about to hit that time of year again. The time where AFOLS (adult fans of LEGO) all over the world stay up, waiting for 12am to hit so they can quickly refresh the LEGO website page and add all the new sets to their shopping cart before they sell out. As you may have guessed from the title, we're about to name the top sets to buy at midnight when the new sets launch in order to avoid missing out on them (and don't worry, you're not a loser unless you miss out on these sets).

3. 76420 LEGO Harry Potter Triwizard Tournament: The Black lake

Featuring 5 minifigures, all with unique printing and a cool build, this Harry Potter set actually looks very good. It works well as both a display set and as a playset, resulting in many Harry Potter fans expressing their excitement and plans to buy it. This set could potentially sell out quite fast, so it's worth keeping an eye on at midnight New Years Eve if you don't want to miss it.

2. 76244 LEGO Miles Morales vs Morbius

While it's no secret that the Morbius movie was a major flop, Morbius has easily been one of the most memed Marvel movies of all time. Due to the popularity of the memes, the relatively affordable price of $40 AUD and the great minifigures and pieces included in the set, this could actually sell out quite quickly. Expect investors to snap these up to sell in a few years time - the Morbius minifigure may not return to us again for quite some time. It's Morbin' time!

1. 75345 LEGO Star Wars 501st Clone Troopers™ Battle Pack

Coming in at 1 to the surprise of absolutely nobody in the LEGO Star Wars community, this battle pack will very likely sell out at midnight within a few minutes - if not the first minute it's listed based on the sales of previous, similarly-priced army building Star Wars sets. If you plan to get these, you need to be up at midnight 12am VIC/NSW time on the 1st of January to secure them. Australians, you can check out our timezone guide for this set to see when it will become available in your state.

Did you agree with our picks? While the first two sets will not be in as high demand, we're sure the Star Wars battle pack will be gone very, very fast. Are there other sets that you think may sell out fast at midnight? Let us know down in the comments.
