After the recent results of the LEGO Ideas Dungeons and Dragons review, it's time to look at all the LEGO Ideas sets that are currently in development. The first LEGO Ideas set of 2023 has been revealed in the last couple of days of 21338 A-Frame Cabin which is set to release on 4th February 2023. This is a lovely calming LEGO Ideas set that introduces a range of interesting building techniques and animal pieces.
This means that there's one less project for the LEGO Ideas team to work on but another ten projects are in development including the new additions of Dragon's Keep: Journey's End and Your Family Tree. However, all the details we give about each set are currently unconfirmed unless they have official set numbers
A-Frame Cabin
A-Frame Cabin is a brand new non-licensed LEGO Ideas project that is set to kick off 2023 as it releases on 4th February 2023. The set has been in development for just over a year but with it already being detailed and colourful in design, LEGO hasn't had to change many things. However, LEGO has increased the amount of Minifigures included from two to four and included an orange canoe.
Set Name - A-Frame Cabin
Set Number - 21338
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - 2,082
Price - $179.99
Release Date - 1st February 2023
BTS' Dynamite
Another LEGO Ideas music set is coming but this time it's Minifigure scale with BTS set to see themselves in LEGO form on 1st March 2023. However, the project's current Minifigures have no face prints and the build feels very plain and open so it's likely this project will go through many stages of development. And because of the BTS license, it'll retail for $99.99 with only 749 pieces included.
Set Name - BTS' Dynamite
Set Number - 21339
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - 749
Price - $99.99
Release Date - 1st March 2023
Tribute to Galileo Galilei GWP
Our first and only GWP on this list is another historical figure-based GWP as LEGO expands further to its adult fans. Similar sets like 40410 Charles Dickens Tribute and the most recent one of 40530 Jane Goodall Tribute will form what we imagine the set will look like being worth around $10-$15. The set will most likely come out around the summer with purchases around $180-$250.
Set Name - Tribute to Galileo Galilei GWP
Set Number - TBC
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - TBC
Price - TBC GWP
Release Date - 2023
Hocus Pocus - The Sanderson Sisters' Cottage
Another licensed set but this time it's more of a horror-based set which is fairly rare with LEGO sets nowadays. The set is based on the first Hocus Pocus film which released in 1993 but with the second film having released last year, it's likely interest in this set will be high. LEGO will be releasing the set on 1st July 2023 making it the perfect set for Halloween 2023.
Set Name - Hocus Pocus - The Sanderson Sisters' Cottage
Set Number - 21341
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - 2,316
Price - TBC
Release Date - 1st July 2023
Viking Village
The last confirmed set of 2022 is the winner of the rejected Target collaboration which Viking Village won. The set brings back more nostalgia to older LEGO fans who used to play with the likes of Vikings, Pirates and more. A quick turnaround will take place for this set as it will release on 1st October 2023 with 2,103 pieces.
Set Name - Viking Village
Set Number - 21343
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - 2,103
Price - TBC
Release Date - 1st October 2023
Tales of the Space Age
One of the cheapest sets on this list is 21340 Tales of the Space Age which will be coming in the first half of this year. The space-themed set was one of the most recent sets to get accepted but due to its small size and niche idea LEGO is unlikely to change much about the set. 21340 will probably be the cheapest LEGO Ideas set of 2023 retailing at $49.99 with 688 pieces.
Set Name - Tales of the Space Age
Set Number - 21340
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - 688
Price - $49.99
Release Date - 1st May 2023
LEGO Insects
Another set that was only confirmed a few months ago is 21342 LEGO Insects which will be the fifth LEGO Ideas set of 2023. This is another smaller set that will most likely retail for around $100 but will definitely include 1,111 pieces. The colourful collection of insects will most likely include a honey bee, a praying mantis, a butterfly and two beetles all at a reasonable brick-built scale.
Set Name - LEGO Insects
Set Number - 21342
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - 1,111
Price - TBC
Release Date - 1st September 2023
The Orient Express, a Legendary Train
What's likely to be one of the biggest and most breathtaking LEGO Ideas set, the Orient Express, a Legendary Train will be coming in 2024. Not many huge trains have appeared in LEGO form apart from those in the LEGO City theme so it'll be interesting to see how LEGO creates such a magnificent set in LEGO form.
Set Name - The Orient Express, a Legendary Train
Set Number - TBC
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - TBC
Price - TBC
Release Date - 2024
Polaroid OneStep SX-70
With LEGO Ideas becoming more and more of an 18+ theme it's no surprise to see LEGO accepting a brick-built camera. In particular, it's a Polaroid of the OneStep SX-70 which is likely to be coming as soon as 2024. This should be a much nicer priced set around the $100 mark but the licensing may boost this up to $150.it's
Set Name - Polaroid OneStep SX-70
Set Number - 21343
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - 2,103
Price - TBC
Release Date - 2024
Your Family Tree
Your Family Tree won the family-themed LEGO Ideas contest that took place with Target a few weeks ago. The winner involves a beautiful brick-built tree with family portraits scattered over the branches and leaves. This is likely to be a fairly cheap set with hopefully a range of different Minifigures to make many different kinds of families.
Set Name - Your Family Tree
Set Number - TBC
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - TBC
Price - TBC
Release Date - 2024
Dragon's Keep: Journey's End
Probably one of the most hyped LEGO Ideas set currently in production has to be Dragon's Keep: Journey's End. This is the recent winner of the LEGO Ideas Dungeons and Dragons contest which is set to celebrate its 50th Anniversary. It'll be interesting to see how this partnership shapes up and whether more sets based on the Dungeons and Dragons franchise will appear in 2025.
Set Name - Dragon's Keep: Journey's End
Set Number - TBC
Ages - 18+
Piece Count - TBC
Price - TBC
Release Date - 2024
