January marks a fresh start for the LEGO calendar, kicking off 2026 with a substantial wave of new releases across a wide range of themes. As is tradition for the first month of the year, LEGO leans heavily into play-focused system sets alongside a handful of premium 18+ models, giving builders of all ages plenty to choose from following the festive season.
While many January launches are aimed at younger builders, including brand new waves from LEGO City, LEGO Friends, LEGO Technic and LEGO NINJAGO, adult fans aren’t left behind. Headlining the month is 11370 Stranger Things: The Creel House, marking the return of the Netflix series to LEGO Icons following the release of the show’s final episode.
The opening of the month of the year also sees the release of the annual LEGO Icons Modular Building, with 2026 debuting 11371 Shopping Street. Seasonal tie-ins also play an important role this month, with LEGO celebrating the Lunar New Year through themed sets and promotions, while January’s GWPs offer a mix of nostalgia, cultural celebration and display-focused builds to start the year on a strong note.
If you're planning a LEGO haul this month, there's plenty to consider - especially when it comes to GWP sets. From premium LEGO Icons exclusives to a seasonal Lunar New Year celebration model, January offers a range of promotional builds to help you make the most of your spend.
