LEGO Ideas 21369 X-Files Rumoured For August 2026

3 min read

It's been a while since we last had a LEGO Ideas reveal, with the last official presentation for the theme taking place in March with 21367 Tintin Moon Rocket. But thankfully, following the release of 21368 Peanuts: Snoopy's Doghouse, the 18+ theme is expected to release a total of three sets in August - almost doubling the total number of Ideas sets released so far in 2026.


The first of these which we're looking at is 21369 X-Files, originally designed by Brent Waller (WetWired), but will be appearing as an official LEGO set on the 1st of August 2026, having won the 90s Throwback Challenge. The 18+ model includes just 1,478 pieces retailing for $199.99 / €199.99 / £179.99, making it the largest and easily the most expensive LEGO Ideas set of the year so far.




Based on the original submission entitled The X-Files: The Truth Is Out, the model is split into two main sections stacked vertically. At the bottom is a detailed recreation of FBI agent Fox Mulder's basement office. The room is enclosed on three sides and filled with furniture, filing cabinets, desks, shelves, paperwork, computer equipment and investigation materials.


The walls are covered with newspaper clippings, photographs and evidence related to paranormal cases. The office has a cluttered appearance, with many small details packed into the space to recreate the look of Mulder's workspace from the television series. The brick-built basement office, built at Minifigure scale, even includes the famous 'I Want To Believe' poster.


Above the office is a forest scene built on a raised landscape. The terrain features various trees, rocks and vegetation arranged around a clearing. Emerging from the forest is a large flying saucer with a smooth, rounded shape, recreating an alien abduction in brick-built LEGO form. The UFO is built as if it's literally about to transfer an alien back into its ship while hovering above the trees to create a dramatic centrepiece for the 18+ model.




While the build is expected to be substantially smaller, with over 500 pieces less than the original submission, hopefully, the Minifigure lineup is still just as exciting and worthwhile. Initially, a total of seven LEGO Minifigures were featured from across The X-Files universe. These included Fox Mulder and Dana Scully in their signature FBI outfits, along with Assistant Director Walter Skinner, The Jersey Devil, Syndicate Leader, the villain Eugene Tooms and a grey alien figure.

21369 The X-Files releases on the 1st of August 2026, but what do you think? Does the split design with Mulder’s basement office and the UFO forest scene feel like a strong LEGO Ideas display build, or would you have preferred a different moment from the series?

Trang chủ E39 Mình tình cờ ghé qua website này và dành vài phút để xem cách nội dung được trình bày. Ấn tượng đầu tiên là giao diện khá gọn gàng, các phần chính được sắp xếp rõ ràng nên không mất nhiều thời gian để làm quen. Phần điều hướng cũng tương đối dễ sử dụng, giúp việc tìm và chuyển sang những nội dung khác diễn ra thuận tiện. Khi xem trên điện thoại, bố cục vẫn khá ổn, chữ dễ đọc và các thao tác cơ bản như cuộn trang hay chọn mục đều đơn giản.

I prefer information that explains how something works instead of making grand promises, which is why https://casquad.org/casino/spinit caught my attention. Its editorial content covers provider ratings, licensing and the small details in terms that people might otherwise overlook. I’d start with a review to understand the basics, then verify the legal details through the relevant official register. I’d also check when the review was updated, because current conditions can differ from older descriptions. Casquad states that some links are commercial, so it’s sensible to distinguish editorial information from potential commercial interests. I wouldn’t treat any single website as the ultimate authority, but it can be a useful first step in a wider search.

The source Gear Focus reviews Auctions and Marketplaces provide a seamless experience for both buyers and sellers in the gear trading community. The platform is user-friendly, making it easy to navigate through listings and place bids. I found the auction process to be transparent and efficient, with clear communication regarding bids and item conditions. Additionally, the community aspect fosters trust, as users can leave feedback and reviews, enhancing the overall reliability of transactions. Overall, my experience has been positive, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to buy or sell gear.

This is fantastic news! I love that the set includes both Mulder's cluttered basement office with the 'I Want To Believe' poster and the UFO forest scene. It's a really unique split design that feels like two iconic X-Files moments are chained together in one display. The price tag for 1,478 pieces is quite steep, though – I hope the minifigure lineup really delivers to justify it! 👽
