If Star Wars has Baby Yoda, then Baby Groot is undeniably the cute face of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Naturally, there’s a whole lot of merchandise out there for the adorable Florian, but it doesn’t get any better than this cute Lego set that allows you to build your own Groot and have some fun with the little Guardian of the Galaxy. Normally $55, you can pick up this 476-piece Groot Lego set for only $30 this week at Amazon and Target.Note: Target says orders placed today will arrive later this week, but Amazon has clearly been hit with an influx of orders, as the retailer currently estimates a one- to two-month wait.

Amazon Games boss Christoph Hartmann has said his company will “obviously” develop games for the Switch 2, but he isn’t too stressed about when the new system releases. Amazon Games is publishing the next Tomb Raider game from Crystal Dynamics and is also producing a new Lord of the Rings MMO, among other upcoming games.Speaking to IGN, Hartmann said, “We obviously plan to develop games for it and I can’t wait for it to be out.” At the same time, the executive said he would rather Nintendo “wait a year and get it perfect” rather than ship the system as quickly as possible “and then we all complain about what doesn’t work.””Switch has been such a fantastic product, I can wait another year if I have to. And from development, I think most non-Nintendo developers are not exclusively doing titl…
