I've been building Lego sets for more than 40 years, and these are the 15 Prime Day Lego deals I'd get

Yet another Prime Day has arrived, and with it come lots of sales on Lego sets, which makes it a good — not great — time to stock up. Sadly, some of the bigger sets, like the Star Wars UCS or the full-size F1 sets, aren't on sale, which will disappoint many AFOLs.

However, a lot of the less-expensive sets are discounted somewhat, so if you're planning ahead for a kid's birthday or some other event, now is a good time to look around. The Lego Speed Champions Ferrari SF-24 F1 set, which is now just $21 on Amazon, is a great example.

I'm still combing through all of the Lego deals, so this is a list of 15 I like so far; I'm partial to a lot of Lego cars, which is why you'll see a lot of those deals in this roundup, as well as Star Wars-themed sets. But, we have a neat little deal finder at the bottom of the page, which scours the web for all the best Lego deals — and saves you the trouble of having to go to Amazon.

Lego Star Wars OBI-Wan Kenobi's Jedi Starfighter: was $29 now $27 at Amazon

I realize this Star Wars Lego deal isn't exactly a barn burner, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to snag one for myself.
