Amazon has trimmed the Lego Ideas Tuxedo Cat to $81.99 as of July 17, taking $18 off its listed full price of $99.99.

The build, officially listed as Lego Ideas Tuxedo Cat 21349, is a 1,710-piece set that turns a pile of bricks into a black-and-white display cat. For Lego fans with a soft spot for pets, it is one of the more whiskered ways to spend a discount.

Price tracker CamelCamelCamel lists the current Amazon price as a 90-day low and shows the set sitting close to its lowest Amazon price on record, $79.95. That puts the current deal just a couple of dollars above the tracker’s all-time low for the set.

What the set includes

According to the product details, the Lego Ideas Tuxedo Cat comes with parts for a customizable finished model. Builders can choose yellow or blue eyes, and the set includes different mouth pieces for either an open-mouth or closed-mouth look.

The model is also designed for posing after the build is done. The cat’s head, ears, paws and tail can be rotated or adjusted, giving the finished display piece more than one shelf-ready stance.

  • Set: Lego Ideas Tuxedo Cat 21349
  • Pieces: 1,710

Deal timing

No end date for the Amazon discount was specified, so the price may change. Retail prices on Lego sets can move without much warning, especially when a sale gets close to a previous low.

The deal is available through Amazon for the Lego Ideas Tuxedo Cat. CamelCamelCamel’s listing for the set shows the current price is close to the model’s best recorded Amazon price, making this a notable markdown for shoppers already eyeing the brick-built feline.

For anyone comparing Lego buys, this one is squarely in display-piece territory: a sizable Ideas set, a pet-themed design, and enough movable parts to make the final cat look a little different from one shelf to the next.
