This $330 LEGO Goonies Set Is Pure Halloween Treasure

If you’ve ever dreamed about finding pirate treasure in underground caves or sliding down secret passages to escape the bad guys, you’re about to lose your mind over what LEGO just dropped. And with Halloween just around the corner, the timing couldn’t be more perfect for The Goonies set (21363), a 2,912-piece tribute to skeletons, pirates, and underground adventures that practically screams spooky season.

Here’s the thing that gets me about this release. It’s not just a model you build and stick on a shelf. This is a full-blown tribute to one of the most beloved adventure movies ever made, with actual thought put into recreating those iconic moments that blend adventure with just the right amount of creepy. We’re talking about the Fratelli hideout (basically a haunted house for criminals), the terrifying boulder trap, skeleton-filled caves, and yes, One-Eyed Willy’s legendary pirate ship, the Inferno, complete with sails, treasure, and plenty of bones.

Designer: LEGO

What really makes this set special are the minifigures. All twelve of them. You get the whole gang: Mikey, Mouth, Data, Chunk, Brand, Andy, and Stef, plus Sloth in his Superman shirt, Mama Fratelli, Francis, Jake, and even One-Eyed Willy’s skeleton. Speaking of which, how perfect is it to have an actual skeleton pirate minifigure just in time for Halloween? LEGO actually created brand new elements specifically for this set, like Sloth’s pirate hat and Mama Fratelli’s hair and beret combo, which shows you the level of detail they’re committed to.

The build itself is pure genius in how it captures the movie’s spooky underground energy. One side shows the Inferno in all its glory with full sails, looking exactly like the moment when the Goonies discover it in that eerie cavern. Flip it around, and you’ve got an interactive play area with all the booby traps and secret passages that could easily double as Halloween decorations. There’s the skeleton organ where if you hit the wrong note, your minifigure falls through the floor (talk about a Halloween party trick). There’s a trap door for Data to avoid, and even a slide to the octopus from a deleted scene that superfans will totally appreciate.

At $329.99, this is definitely an investment piece. But you’re getting nearly 3,000 pieces and enough spooky detail to keep you discovering new Easter eggs every time you look at it. Think truffle shuffle references, the treasure map that started it all, and little callbacks scattered throughout the build. The underground cave aesthetic with its dark corners and hidden dangers fits perfectly with Halloween vibes, making it an ideal conversation piece for your seasonal decor.

Now here’s where it gets even better. If you’re quick and grab this set between November 1st and 7th, you’ll also score a free gift with purchase: The Walshes’ Attic set (40773). This 179-piece bonus includes minifigures of Mikey’s parents, Irving and Irene Walsh, plus a brick-built recreation of that cluttered, slightly creepy attic where the whole adventure began. You know, the scene with the dusty suit of armor, random nautical stuff everywhere, cobwebs implied, and that fateful moment when the kids discovered the treasure map behind a painting? It’s the perfect companion piece that sets up the entire story and adds another layer of atmospheric Halloween fun to your display.

What I love most about this release is how it captures that perfect blend of adventure and spookiness that makes The Goonies such a timeless film. Based on a fan submission by Delusion Brick, it shows that LEGO is actually listening to what fans want. This is the 10th and final LEGO Ideas set of 2025, and honestly, what a way to close out the year, especially launching right at the beginning of November when Halloween decorations are still fresh in everyone’s minds.

The set launches November 1st for LEGO Insiders members, with general availability starting November 4th. And yeah, it’s going to look incredible displayed on your shelf, whether you keep it up year-round or bring it out as part of your Halloween rotation. Part of the charm is in all the interactive elements: sending Sloth sliding down the mast, activating the boulder trap, playing with the skeleton organ. These aren’t just static display pieces meant to gather dust.

For anyone who grew up in the 80s or simply loves adventure movies with heart and a hint of danger, this is more than a LEGO set. It’s a trip back to that feeling of infinite possibility, of exploring dark caves with nothing but a flashlight and your courage, of believing that treasure maps really do lead somewhere magical. Goonies never say die, and clearly, neither does our love for pirates, skeletons, and Halloween adventures.

Google brings free Gemini access to India’s largest carrier

Google’s AI ambitions are global in scale, so much so that it has just agreed to give Gemini away for free in India to people using the country's biggest mobile provider. Thanks to a deal with Reliance Intelligence, an AI-focused subsidiary of Reliance Industries, people signed up to Jio’s Unlimited 5G plan will be offered Google AI Pro at no extra cost for 18 months.

That means that qualifying users will have access to Gemini 2.5 Pro, Google’s most advanced AI model. They will also benefit from higher limits for the Nano Banana and Veo 3.1 AI image and video generators, plus expanded access to NotebookLM. The plan also includes 2TB of cloud storage across Google’s apps, for a total combined worth of around 35,100 rupees ($396) per user.

The offer will initially be exclusive to Jio customers between the age of 18 and 25, but will eventually extend to all people on an eligible plan via the MyJio app. Jio is India's largest mobile network operator, and a company in which Google purchased a 7.7 percent stake worth $4.5 million in 2020.

India is fast becoming a key battleground for AI expansion. Back in July, Perplexity AI partnered with Bharti Airtel, Jio’s rival carrier, to offer a year-long Perplexity Pro subscription worth $200 to all of Airtel’s 360 million customers. OpenAI is also adopting an aggressive strategy in the country, recently debuting its cheapest ChatGPT subscription to date, at 390 rupee ($4.60), in India first. ChatGPT Go offers users 10 times more message limits, image generation and file uploads than the free version.

Samsung is using NVIDIA chips to build its new AI chip factory

NVIDIA has teamed up with with South Korea's biggest companies and the country itself, as they build out their AI infrastructure. One of those companies is Samsung, which is building a new AI factory that will use 50,000 NVIDIA Blackwell server GPUs and other NVIDIA technologies to make its own chips. This "AI-driven semiconductor manufacturing," as the companies call it, will help Samsung improve its processes, better predict maintenance needs and improve the efficiency of its autonomous operations. NVIDIA will help Samsung adapt its chipmaking lithography platform to work with its GPUs, and it will apparently result in 20 times greater performance for Samsung. 

Korean carmaker Hyundai will also use 50,000 NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs to develop its AI models for manufacturing and autonomous driving. Meanwhile, the SK Group conglomerate, which includes SK Telecom and DRAM and flash memory chip supplier SK Hynix, will use 50,000 NVIDIA Blackwell server chips to launch an industrial AI cloud. The facility, NVIDIA says, will power the "next generation of memory, robotics, digital twins and intelligent AI agents." As Bloomberg reports, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, who's in South Korea for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation CEO Summit, was recently photographed with Samsung's Jay Y. Lee and Hyundai’s Chung Euisun in a local restaurant. 

Finally, NVIDIA is working with the South Korean government for its sovereign AI infrastructure, or AI it will have control over. The Korean government will deploy 50,000 NVIDIA GPUs to the National AI Computing Center it's establishing, as well to facilities owned by local companies that include Kakao and Naver.

The Bose QuietComfort headphones drop to $199 in Best Buy’s Black Friday sale

The Bose QuietComfort headphones (the non-Ultra variety) are on sale. Best Buy's early Black Friday sale has the comfy cans for 45 percent off, knocking their price down to $199. That matches their record low from Prime Day.

Bose's headphones have top-notch comfort and active noise cancellation (ANC). For the latter, you can choose between "Quiet" (full ANC) and "Aware" (hear your surroundings) modes. There's also a wind-blocking feature. The headphones' audio, while not quite on par with the $449 Ultra variant (and missing spatial tricks), far surpasses what you'll typically find for $199.

The company estimates 24 hours of battery life. It also supports quick charging: Plug in its USB-C cable and get up to 2.5 hours of charge in only 15 minutes.

This model doesn't include an option to turn off ANC altogether, which some people may have appreciated. (That would have led to even more battery life, desirable for frequent travelers.) But if you're like me and always listen in ANC or aware modes, this is as solid a pick as you'll find for the sale price.

Best Buy has a bunch of other headphones on sale for Black Friday. Of note are the Bose Ultra open-ear buds for $100 off, and the Beats Studio Pro for $150 off.
