LEGO has added three genuinely new US gift-with-purchase promotions for early August 2026, and this is one of those drops where the mix is unusually easy to separate by audience. 40896 The X-Files: Scully’s Lab is tied directly to the new 21369 The X-Files set rather than a blanket spend threshold, 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection is locked to a qualifying purchase that includes 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise, and 40887 SMART Play: Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night is the broader of the three with a $130 minimum spend in LEGO Pokémon SMART Play merchandise only. All three promos are currently listed by LEGO as running from August 1, 2026 to August 10, 2026, while stocks last or while supplies last depending on the specific offer. Just as importantly, LEGO also publishes clear Approximate Retail Values / ARVs for each bonus item, making this a fully confirmed trio of GWPs rather than a vague site banner or generic Insiders push.
After checking the official LEGO US offers page, the current LEGO offers terms page and each product listing, these are the three new GWPs now live for US shoppers. Two are Pokémon-themed bonuses aimed at specific purchases inside LEGO's expanding Pokémon range, while the third is a pop-culture collector freebie linked to The X-Files.
That split matters. These are not general sitewide freebies that everyone will qualify for automatically. Instead, LEGO is using three different qualification models at once: a direct required set purchase, another direct required set purchase, and a theme-limited dollar threshold.
The new LEGO US GWPs for August 2026 at a glance
Here are the headline details now shown by LEGO:
- 40896 The X-Files: Scully's Lab — August 1 to August 10, 2026, ARV $19.99, minimum threshold: No general dollar threshold listed; purchase must include The X-Files (21369)
- 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection — August 1 to August 10, 2026, ARV $29.99, minimum threshold: No general dollar threshold listed; purchase must include Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise (72153)
- 40887 SMART Play™: Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night — August 1 to August 10, 2026, $130 minimum spend in LEGO Pokémon™ SMART Play, ARV $19.99
The key takeaway is simple: all three are real named product GWPs with their own official product pages and published terms. That makes them much more concrete than points events, voucher pushes or generic Insiders promos, which are exactly the kinds of non-GWP offers worth ignoring in a daily watch.
LEGO 40896 The X-Files: Scully's Lab offer details
The most collector-friendly new bonus is probably The X-Files: Scully’s Lab (40896). LEGO lists it from August 1, 2026 to August 10, 2026 with an official ARV of $19.99. However, the important qualification detail is that there is no broad dollar threshold listed on the current terms page. Instead, LEGO says the qualifying purchase must include The X-Files (21369).
That makes this a very targeted companion GWP rather than a general spending incentive. If you are not already buying 21369, this offer effectively does not apply. If you are, it becomes a much stronger proposition because the bonus is tightly matched to the same theme instead of being some unrelated add-on.
- Gift: The X-Files: Scully’s Lab (40896)
- Start date: August 1, 2026
- End date: August 10, 2026
- Gift value / ARV: $19.99
- Minimum spend threshold: No public dollar threshold shown; your order must include The X-Files (21369)
- Availability: online at LEGO.com, in LEGO Stores and LEGO Catalog telephone orders
The official product page positions Scully's Lab as a proper little display build rather than filler. LEGO lists it for ages 18+ and highlights 221 pieces, which gives it far more substance than a tiny impulse polybag-style extra.
Continue investigations into the paranormal with this LEGO® Ideas The X-Files: Scully’s Lab (40896) model building kit for adults. Recreate authentic details of the classroom lab at the FBI National Academy and add the minifigure of Dana Scully inher lab coat and scrubs. Turn her head around to show her with or without goggles.

LEGO 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection offer details
The second new bonus is Kanto Region Badge Collection (40892), and this one follows a similar structure. LEGO lists the promotion from August 1, 2026 to August 10, 2026 with an official ARV of $29.99. Again, though, there is no simple sitewide dollar threshold attached. LEGO's current terms say the qualifying purchase must include 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise.
That means the effective threshold is not a general spend target but the purchase of a specific Pokémon set. For buyers who were already planning to pick up 72153, this is quite a nice stacking moment. For everyone else, it is a narrowly gated promo rather than a reason to shop broadly across the entire catalogue.
- Gift: Kanto Region Badge Collection (40892)
- Start date: August 1, 2026
- End date: August 10, 2026
- Gift value / ARV: $29.99
- Minimum spend threshold: No general dollar threshold shown; qualifying purchase must include 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise
- Availability: online at LEGO.com only
On the product side, LEGO lists Kanto Region Badge Collection as a more premium freebie than usual at 312 pieces for ages 18+. That piece count helps explain the higher $29.99 value and makes the GWP feel like a meaningful companion item rather than a token extra.

LEGO 40887 Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night offer details
The most conventional of the three new bonuses is SMART Play™: Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night (40887). LEGO currently lists it from August 1, 2026 to August 10, 2026, with a $130 minimum spend threshold and an official ARV of $19.99. The catch is that the spend only counts on LEGO Pokémon™ SMART Play.
That makes 40887 the easiest offer to understand at a glance. Unlike the other two, it does use a standard spend threshold. But unlike a sitewide spend-and-get deal, it is limited to one very specific product ecosystem. If you are shopping outside LEGO Pokémon SMART Play, this threshold does nothing for you.
- Gift: SMART Play™: Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night (40887)
- Start date: August 1, 2026
- End date: August 10, 2026
- Gift value / ARV: $19.99
- Minimum spend threshold: $130 in LEGO Pokémon™ SMART Play merchandise only
- Availability: online at LEGO.com, in LEGO Stores and LEGO Catalog telephone orders
LEGO lists the set at 185 pieces for ages 7+, which is solid for a themed promo bonus. It also feels like the most stackable of the three if you are already planning a bigger SMART Play Pokémon order.
TV time turns into transformation time with Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night. Switch channels by swapping what’s on the screen and open the TV stand to access the remote control and a movie. The model incorporates a SMART Tag and space for a SMART Brick from an All-In-One Set (sold separately). The SMART Brick activates the SMART Play Compatible Set’s interactive features, bringing Ditto as Squirtle to life with dynamic lights, sounds and interactions. This toy building set contains 185 pieces.

(7 cm) tall
What the current LEGO offers terms page confirms
The official LEGO terms page is especially useful here because it confirms all four details shoppers usually need before treating a GWP as fully live: start date, end date, gift value / ARV and the exact minimum threshold or qualifying purchase requirement. In this case, LEGO's own terms show that all three bonuses run through August 10, 2026, but the qualification mechanics are deliberately different.
For 40896 and 40892, the practical threshold is the required inclusion of a named set in your order. For 40887, it is a straight $130 spend in the SMART Play Pokémon range. That distinction matters because someone reading the offers page too quickly could easily assume all three work like standard spend-based promos, which they do not.
In short, the current LEGO US terms support these summaries:
- 40896: Qualifying purchase must include The X-Files ( 21369 ) .
- 40892: Qualifying purchase must include Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise ( 72153 ) .
- 40887: Qualifying purchase must be equal to or greater than $130 in LEGO Pokémon™ SMART Play merchandise only.
Final takeaway on the new LEGO US GWPs for August 2026
LEGO has launched three genuinely new US GWPs for early August 2026, and each one targets a different shopping pattern. 40896 The X-Files: Scully's Lab works as a direct companion freebie for buyers of 21369 The X-Files. 40892 Kanto Region Badge Collection is a Pokémon reward linked to orders that include 72153 Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise. And 40887 Ditto as Squirtle: Movie Night is the cleanest threshold-based offer, requiring $130 in LEGO Pokémon SMART Play merchandise.
If you want to double-check the source material yourself, the most useful official pages are the LEGO US offers page, the current LEGO offers terms page, the official 40896 product page, the official 40892 product page and the official 40887 product page.
