A detailed, angular design for the Venator awaits us, making it perfect to display alongside 75356 Executor Super Star Destroyer .

Grogu, also commonly known as Baby Yoda, has to be one of the cutest characters in the Star Wars universe, and so it's no surprise that another entirely brick-built version of the popular character is coming to brick-built form in 2026. In particular, this latest buildable Grogu will be for some of the youngest of LEGO Star Wars  fans, with 75443 Grogu's Homestead being branded as a 4+ model. Releasing on the 1st of January 2026, 75443 includes 107 pieces retailing for $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99. These slightly larger and more simplified pieces recreate a very simple and somewhat less screen-accurate version of Grogu. A single piece is used for various elements such as his ears and his face, which includes prints for his cute eyes, tiny nose and mouth. Grogu has movement in his head and arms, allowing the Star Wars character to interact with the various side builds included in the 4+ model. These include a small campfire cooking some scifi meal, an Arge frog (the one-eyed blue frogs), and a small seesaw-like build coloured the same as the Arge frog, which Grogu loves to eat. 75443 Grogu's Homestead Set Name - Grogu's Homestead Set Number - 75443 Age Range - 4+ Piece Count - 107 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 75443 Grogu's Homestead releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

Just over a month of 2025 remains, and that means we're ever closer to a flurry of LEGO releases across a wide range of licensed and unlicensed LEGO themes. The LEGO Star Wars theme is expected to have a big 2026 as the Star Wars franchise returns to the big screen with the release of The Mandalorian & Grogu movie in May. This will coincide with plenty of Mandalorian-inspired LEGO sets, including a couple releasing on the 1st of January. In particular, the smallest and cheapest set of the Winter 2026 LEGO Star Wars  wave is 75436 The Mandalorian & Grogu's Speeder Bike. The 6+ model, retailing for just $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99, recreates Mando's Speeder Bike, which we see speeding through Tatooine back in the first season of The Mandalorian. Only 58 pieces are used to recreate the bike, which has both a driver's seat for the Mandalorian himself and a stachel for Grogu to sit. Unfortunately, both figures are unexclusive, and unlike initial rumours, the LEGO Minifigure version of Mando is not the UCS one. Din Djarin also just comes with a simple blaster rifle, which can be attached to the rear of the mainly grey and fairly lacklustre speeder bike build. 75436 The Mandalorian & Grogu's Speeder Bike Set Name - The Mandalorian & Grogu's Speeder Bike Set Number - 75436 Age Range - 6+ Piece Count - 58 Price - $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 75436 The Mandalorian & Grogu's Speeder Bike releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

A much smaller purple flower is also included as a side build here.

The first LEGO Minifigure s  series of 2026 has been officially revealed ahead of a release next month on the 1st of January 2026. This latest CMF series follows on from the superhero-heavy 71050 Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Series ,  which launched in September, with a return to the standard numbered LEGO Minifigure s  series of Series 28. However, this series is a full lineup of twelve animal-themed costume characters... 71051 CMF Series 28: The Party follows on from the likes of 71010 Series 14: Monsters and 71046 Series 26: Space , with a numbered series based around a specific theme. This time, our first LEGO Minifigure  series of the new year is centred entirely on costume-style figures, building on the popularity of past single-character suits such as Pterodactyl Costume Fan and Hamster Costume Fan, which both appeared in 71048 Series 27 . Full Minifigure Lineup Here’s a breakdown of the twelve figures making up CMF Series 28: The Party Animals: Peacock Costume Fan  - One of the most vibrant costumes in this series, the Peacock Costume Fan features a bold and colourful peacock tail piece, the exact same element that was used for the Turkey Costume in 71034 Series 23 . A small sunflower flower build is also included as an accessory to contrast nicely with the mainly blue and yellow figure. White Cat Costume Fan  - A feline-inspired figure, but this time with an entirely white cat head piece, torso and tail, along with a ball of pink coloured yarn. Fish Costume Fan  - There's something a bit fishy about this figure with a brand new headpiece featuring large fish-like eyes. The head piece extends down the figure to the torso and waist to recreate fish fins, matching the orange fins that replace the standard LEGO Minifigure  arms. Monkey Costume Fan  - Somewhat a throwback to the Gorilla Suit Guy in Series 3, this time we're getting a LEGO Minifigure  dressed entirely as a cheeky brown monkey. The figure uses a brand-new monkey headpiece with large ears, along with a tail, and, unsurprisingly, a banana. Frog Costume Fan  - Featuring a fun and very unique frog headpiece along with a bubble blower as an accessory. A printed bubble container is also included. Koala Costume Fan  - A nod to Australia, this figure features a brand-new koala headpiece and comes with two accessories: a leafy branch piece and a boomerang. One of the character's face prints also includes an eye mask. Dalmatian Costume Fan  - The LEGO Disney  theme have released a few 101 Dalmatian themed sets in 2025, and in 2026, we're getting a Minifigure dressed up as an adorable spotted dog. The figure utilising a somewhat altered version of the dog head piece from Series 21's Pug Costume Guy, along with an accessory of a blue frisbee. Crocodile Costume Fan  - Another animal often found down under is a crocodile, which will also be releasing as a LEGO Minifigure  on the 1st of January 2026. This character includes a very unique headpiece and two accessories of a yellow rubber duck and a pink and white lifebuoy. Dolphin Costume Fan  - The Dolphin Costume Fan follows a very similar style to Shark Suit Guy from Series 15, with the figure using a brand new moulded head piece that stretches along the back of the character. A clam shell is featured as the Minifigure's accessory. Bunny Costume Fan  - Plenty of LEGO Minifigures  dressed as bunnies have appeared in the past, but Series 28's version is just as cute and fun as the rest. Bunny Costume Fan comes in a mainly tan colour scheme with a white chest. A bunny headpiece with one ear slightly down is included, along with an Easter themed accessory of an Easter egg and a brown basket. Lion Costume Fan  - The closest we've gotten to a LEGO Minifigure  dressed as a lion is the Cowardly Lion, which featured in the LEGO Movie 2 series. This version, releasing in 2026, utilises a brand new head mould and comes in the standard, more cartoon-like lion of yellow and red/brown. A single accessory of a chicken leg piece is also included. Parrot Costume Fan  - Last but not least, we have another very colourful and unique Minifigure of the Parrot Costume Fan. Another new headpiece with a large beak features here, along with an accessory of a printed parrot snack box. 71051 CMF Series 28: The Party Animals Set Name - CMF Series 28: The Party Animals Set Number - 71051 Age Range - 5+ Piece Count - 7 Price - $4.99 / €3.99 / £3.49 Release Date - 1st January 2026 71051 CMF Series 28: The Party Animals releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

In recent years, the LEGO Group has continued to grow its line of brick-built sets for both adults and younger builders, with plenty of 4+ branded sets appearing across both licensed and unlicensed themes.
