40909 Restaurants of the World: Italy Confirmed as October's GWP

40909 Restaurants of the World: Italy is the fourth and final set in LEGO's Restaurants of the World series, available free with qualifying purchases at LEGO.com from 13 until 19 October 2026 (or while stocks last). You need to spend US$180 / £160 / €180 in a single transaction to qualify, and stocks will not be replenished once they run out.

At 317 pieces it is a decent size for a promotional set. The build is a pizzeria with a giant pizza slice on the roof, a fountain, and a pizza oven. It includes an exclusive Pizza Chef minifigure, a Margherita Pizza tile, and a Pizza Box. LEGO rates it for ages 12 and up, though in practice it will appeal most to adult collectors who want a compact, detailed display piece.

The three sets before it were 40906 Restaurants of the World: Japan (Q1), 40907 Restaurants of the World: Mexico (Q2), and 40908 Restaurants of the World: Greece (Q3). If you have been collecting all year, Italy completes the row. If you have not, the spend threshold makes this more of a consideration alongside a planned purchase than a reason to shop.

The new printed pizza tile is the detail drawing the most attention in the community. It is a small addition, but if it eventually reaches the general parts catalogue it will be a useful one for City builders and MOC fans.

Pizza is the predictable choice for Italy - the country's culinary range is broad, and this is the obvious landing spot rather than the considered one. That said, the exclusive minifigure sharpens its collector appeal, and as the series closer it has a natural completionist pull.

Double Insiders points on all LEGO.com purchases is rumoured to run 13 to 19 October, though LEGO has not confirmed the promotion. If it does run as expected, the opening week of the GWP window is the sensible time to place any larger order you have been putting off.
