LEGO Disney is kicking off 2026 with a magical wave of seven enchanting new sets, all scheduled to release on the 1st of January 2026. The licensed themes' first wave of the new year mainly consists of minidoll-based LEGO Disney princess sets, which also includes a new range of mini brick-built characters. The most exciting set of the wave, however, has to be 43286 The Aristocats: Adorable Marie, which introduces the 1970 animated film to brick-built LEGO form. 43281 Elsa's Ice Castle & Snow Ride Adventure The joint most expensive set of LEGO Disney's January 2026 wave is also the theme's only 4+ set launching at the beginning of next year. In particular, this is 43281 Elsa's Ice Castle & Snow Ride Adventure, which recreates Elsa's iconic ice castle but in a more simplified brick-built form. Elsa is obviously included as a minidoll along with Anna, Olaf and three Snowgies.

The first of these is another Frozen-themed model of 43284 Mini Anna & Elsa, which includes just 65 pieces retailing for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. The 5+ model includes some cute, animated yet very small brick-built versions of Anna & Elsa.

In 2026, however, the collection of sets is going under the sea with a micro-world recreation of Ariel's Magical Palace. The palace is coloured a mix of bright yellow, gold, pink and blue and includes Ariel, Flounder and Sebastian. Set Name - Ariel's Magical Mini Palace Set Number - 43285 Age Range - 5+ Piece Count - 179 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 43286 The Aristocats: Adorable Marie The LEGO Disney theme is going all the way back to 1970 with 43286, which is our first set based on the animated feature The Aristocats. The 7+ model and its 369 pieces recreate a fully brick-built version of the white-furred kitten known as Marie. She'll include a very expressive and cute face along with her trademark pink bow and posability in her head, legs and tail. Set Name - The Aristocats: Adorable Marie Set Number - 43286 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 369 Price - $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 43287 Olaf and Bruni's Picnic Fun 43287 Olaf and Bruni's Picnic Fun is another brick-built character-based set, recreating our favourite snowman, Olaf, alongside the adorable fire spirit salamander, Bruni.

The castle is very simple but perfect for both Belle and Tiana, included in this set, and the other two 'mini' models releasing on the 1st of January 2026.

The 5+ model retails for the same price as 43284 Mini Anna & Elsa and includes just 59 pieces. All of these 'mini' LEGO Disney sets feel like the theme's latest 'gimmick' sets, which we can expect to release every January wave in the foreseeable future.

LEGO Technic is gearing up for another exciting 12 months with a total of six sets rumoured for a 1st of January 2026 launch.

The first LEGO Technic set of 2026 has been officially revealed, and it will be the first of likely a couple of 18+ branded sets for the homegrown LEGO theme. In particular, 42223 1966 Ford GT40 MKII Race Car has been presented as one of seven sets reportedly releasing on the 1st of January 2026. The 18+ model retails for $74.99 / €74.99  / £64.99 and includes a total of 793 pieces. As the name obviously states, 42223 recreates the classic 1966 Ford GT40 MKII race car in brick-built form. The iconic vintage car features a low aerodynamic body with smooth lines and racing decals such as large racing number 2 sticker. This can be found on a mainly black base for the vehicle which includes some silver details, Ford logos and golden LEGO wheel rims. The endurance race car and its almost 800 pieces features plenty of authentic Technic mechanisms to create a realistic display and play piece. The knob on the top of the car makes the brick-built Ford steerable whilst both doors can be opened for further access to the racing-ready cockpit. A V8 engine can be found inside the openable engine cover while a lever can be pressed to release the vehicles hood. 42223 1966 Ford GT40 MKII Race Car Set Name - 1966 Ford GT40 MKII Race Car Set Number - 42223 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 793 Price - $74.99 / €74.99  / £64.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 42223 1966 Ford GT40 MKII Race Car releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

10 of the 11 LEGO NINJAGO sets releasing on the 1st of January 2026 have been officially revealed, but the biggest and most expensive model of the year is getting its own presentation next week. In particular, this is 71861 The Old Town, which will be heavily celebrating 15 years of the ninja-themed line of LEGO sets. The 14+ model includes a total of 4,851 pieces retailing for $309.99 / €309.99 / £279.99. The Old Town appears to be a large, monastery-like build that represents one of the oldest and most historic locations in NINJAGO. Its stone structure is reminiscent of early monasteries, with sloped roofs, heavy wooden beams and layered stonework forming the majority of its architecture. Cherry blossom trees grow around the exterior, along with small structures around the main building, such as a tea shop and a carpentry workshop. The interior of the main structure will likely be divided into several sections, such as training areas, mediation chambers, scroll storage and living quarters. Each will be fully accessible along with smaller details such as stone staircases, wooden balconies, lanterns and stereotypical LEGO NINJAGO accessories. The Minifigure lineup is extremely substantial, covering characters from across NINJAGO history. The set includes: Young Wu, Young Garmadon, and The First Spinjitzu Master (all celebrating the 15th anniversary); Faith, Mystake, Krux, Acronix, Garmadon, Wu, Nya, Jay, Zane, Cole, Lloyd, Kai, Harumi, Dr Julien, Dr Saunders, Postman, Travel Agent from the Administration, a Thief, two Loyalists, including their leader, Chuck the Carpenter, and Rd. Several minifigures include unique design notes: the First Spinjitzu Master has silver robe detailing, a dark yellow belt, and a face based on The Spinjitzu Brothers book. Zane uses a yellow head, not a titanium one, and includes a falcon designed in the style of the classic LEGO parrot mould. Lloyd has gold armour components, and Jay includes a glider and helmet as additional accessories. Altogether, 71861 The Old Town seems to be a dedicated tribute to the heritage of NINJAGO. It's an ancient, stone-built, peaceful settlement packed with cherry blossom scenery and smaller traditional shops, alongside a remarkably diverse cast of characters spanning multiple eras of the story. An official presentation is expected on Tuesday, when we'll get all the angles of an incredible, celebratory 2026 model. 71861 The Old Town Set Name - The Old Town Set Number - 71861 Age Range - 14+ Piece Count - 4,851 Price - $309.99 / €309.99 / £279.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 71861 The Old Town releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

Love is in the air, as along with the recently revealed 40867 Love Letters , the LEGO Group has officially presented another Valentine's Day-themed LEGO model. In particular, this is 21365 Love Birds, which is the first LEGO Ideas  set of 2026, following on from the theme's record-breaking 12 months this year. The 18+ model retails for $49.99 / €49.99  / £44.99 from the 1st of January 2025 as a LEGO store and Target exclusive. 21365 Love Birds is 2026's perfect LEGO Valentine's Day model, with a compact yet elegant display piece releasing just over a month before the day we all celebrate love. The original submission by Modular Maniac won the LEGO Ideas  Build from the Heart Challenge, utilising a total of 411 pieces to recreate the vibrant model. Just a year later, we have official images of the final design, including over 300 pieces more, with 750 elements included. The build centres on two brick-built coral-pink love birds, carefully shaped using plenty of curved elements to create some of the most detailed and elegant birds in brick-built LEGO form yet. The two birds are perched very close to each other and posed in a way that highlights their special bond. In fact, the birds can be angled in a particular way to create a love heart. Simple yet expressive eyes are included for these birds along with posability in the birds' legs, wings and head. These two beautifully designed birds are perched on an intricately designed tree with a large brick-built branch hanging out to the side to take the weight of the love birds. The entirely brown tree is built on a similar scale and level of detail to those seen in the LEGO Botanicals  theme. Delicate and detailed spring blossoms are then found at the end of the large branch, and scattered throughout the rest of the tree, which includes a small, simple yet sturdy tree root base to display 21365. 21365 Love Birds Set Name - Love Birds Set Number - 21365 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 750 Price - $49.99 / €49.99  / £44.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21365 Love Birds releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

The LEGO Group first released Looney Tunes back in 2022, and following this year's 40824 Sweetheart Tweety Bird , another brick-built model based on the American media franchise is coming to shelves on the 1st of January 2026. In particular, this is 40920 Bugs Bunny, which includes 605 pieces retailing for just $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99. The 14+ model, just like this year's Valentine's Day model of Tweety Bird, recreates a brick-built version of Bugs Bunny. The iconic and lovable Looney Tunes character is represented by his grey and white fur and extremely expressive, large-printed eyes. His pink nose is also printed and located just above his large mouth and two white teeth. Bugs Bunny's long ears, head, arms and fingers are all posable. Not all of Bugs Bunny is recreated, however, as the rabbit can be seen emerging from a burrow. Here we can see plenty of brown elements signifying mud, along with a cute and colourful flower. One of Bugs' hands can be seen touching the mud whilst the other is holding a carrot and shooing away a tiny brick-built LEGO bee. 40920 Bugs Bunny Set Name - Bugs Bunny Set Number - 40920 Age Range - 14+ Piece Count - 605 Price - $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 40920 Bugs Bunny releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

LEGO Disney is kicking off 2026 with a magical wave of seven enchanting new sets, all scheduled to release on the 1st of January 2026. The licensed themes' first wave of the new year mainly consists of minidoll-based LEGO Disney princess sets, which also includes a new range of mini brick-built characters. The most exciting set of the wave, however, has to be 43286 The Aristocats: Adorable Marie, which introduces the 1970 animated film to brick-built LEGO form. 43281 Elsa's Ice Castle & Snow Ride The joint most expensive set of LEGO Disney's January 2026 wave is also the theme's only 4+ set rumoured to be launching at the beginning of next year. In particular, this is 43281 Elsa's Ice Castle & Snow Ride, which will likely recreate Elsa's iconic ice castle but in a more simplified brick-built form. Elsa will obviously be included as a minidoll along with possibly Anna and Olaf, and a brick-built sleigh for the trio to ride. Set Name - Elsa's Ice Castle & Snow Ride Set Number - 43281 Age Range - 4+ Piece Count - 216 Price - $49.99/ €49.99 / £44.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 43284 Mini Anna & Elsa Three of the seven sets in this LEGO Disney Winter 2026 wave have the word 'mini' in their title, suggesting a brand new kind of set for the licensed theme. The first of these is another Frozen-themed model of 43284 Mini Anna & Elsa, which includes just 65 pieces retailing for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. We're expecting the 5+ model to be very small brick-built versions of Anna & Elsa, only slighter larger than standard LEGO Minifigures .

In 2026, however, the collection of sets will be going under the sea with a micro-world recreation of Ariel's Magical Palace. The palace will likely be coloured a mix of bright yellow, gold, pink and blue and include Ariel and Prince Eric as micro-dolls. Set Name - Ariels Magical Mini Palace Set Number - 43285 Age Range - 5+ Piece Count - 179 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 43286 The Aristocats: Adorable Marie The LEGO Disney theme will be going all the way back to 1970 with 43286, which will be our first set based on the animated feature The Aristocats. The 7+ model and its 369 pieces will recreate a fully brick-built version of the white-furred kitten known as Marie. She'll include a very expressive and cute face along with her trademark pink bow and posability in her head, legs and tail. Set Name - The Aristocats: Adorable Marie Set Number - 43286 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 369 Price - $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 43287 Olaf & Bruni's Picnic Fun 43287 Olaf & Bruni's Picnic Fun may be another brick-built character-based set, recreating our favourite snowman, Olaf, alongside the adorable fire spirit salamander, Bruni. Both characters will be created out of 478 pieces retailing for $49.99 / €49.99 / £44.99. The set name also suggests a mini picnic side build will also be included, allowing further playability between the two characters and a range of small brick-built food.

Get ready for the latest addition to your LEGO modular street as the LEGO Group has officially revealed 2026's LEGO Modular Building. In particular, the new Modular Building is 11371 Shopping Street, which creates two buildings of a music shop and a furniture store with a small alleyway in between. The 18+ model is available from the 1st of January 2026, including 3,456 pieces and retailing for $249.99 / €249.99 / £229.99. The Modular Building itself starts with the usual grey sidewalk, including a fire hydrant and the iconic white lamposts seen in every Modular Building. There's also a small white fountain in the centre, which is replicated using the LEGO kitten piece but completely white with no further printing. The sidewalk not only stretches along the front of the baseplate but also at an angle to the right to create a small alleyway between the two stores on Shopping Street. 11371 is significantly taller than previous Modular Buildings, with the sand green and white building located to the left of the base plate measuring a total of 36 cm (14 inches) high. On the ground floor of this building, we can find the music store called Brickleys, recognisable by a trumpet hanging over the glass door. The second floor also houses more of Brickleys' instrument offerings, including a trombone, a small tuba, and a French horn. The top floor of this building is home to a classic Modular Building apartment. Here we can find a bed, an armchair and a radio along with a separate room for the toilet. A door from the apartment leads directly to a roof terrace, which is located above the other building included in the LEGO Icons model. A roof garden and a dovecote can be found here, along with two of the new LEGO City pigeon elements. This nature-friendly rooftop is found on the second building, placed on the right of the overall modular baseplate and home to the furniture store. This is a much darker coloured building with its brown and beige tones, but it is still inspired by historic European architecture, along with its charming angled walls. Just like the music store, the furniture store takes up two storeys, with the ground floor being the actual place to buy the brick-built furniture, while the upper floor houses a workshop where furniture can be built and restored. Plenty of tools and wood suppliers can be found here, along with a wooden duck referencing LEGO's rich history. Meanwhile, the ground floor has various completed brick-built furnishings, such as some stools and a table. The brick-built shopping street is brought to life by the addition of seven LEGO Minifigures . These include two children with brick-built instrument accessories, a female figure with a LEGO crutch, the music store owner, a customer with a dark blue cap, a furniture maker, and a maintenance worker with a red helmet and tools. Several animals also appear in the $250 set, including the previously mentioned pigeons, a cat and a rat. 11371 Shopping Street Set Name - Shopping Street Set Number - 11371 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 3,456 Price - $249.99 / €249.99 / £229.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 11371 Shopping Street Modular Building releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

Tomorrow, we will finally be getting an official look at 2026's LEGO Modular Building and with less than 24 hours to go, we now have further information and confirmation about the latest LEGO Icons model. In particular, the new Modular Building is 11371 Shopping Street - creating two buildings of a music shop and a furniture store with a small alleyway in between. Consisting of two separate buildings on just the standard 32x32 baseplate, 11371 includes a total of 3,456 pieces retailing for a reported price of $229.99 / €229.99 / £199.99. Within this price tag, a total of seven LEGO Minifigures are also included, a couple of pigeons, a cat and a rat. These figures include two children with ice cream and cupcakes, a female Minifigure with a crutch, the music store owner, the furniture store owner, a female Minifigure with red hair and a maintenance worker with a red helmet and tools. The Modular Building itself starts with the usual grey sidewalk, including a fire hydrant and the iconic white lamposts seen in every Modular Building. There's also a small white fountain in the centre, which features the previously mentioned cat piece. The sidewalk not only stretches along the front of the baseplate but also at an angle to the right to create a small alleyway between the two stores on Shopping Street. The exact heights of two buildings are currently unknown, but the sand green and white building located to the left of the base plate may be one of the tallest buildings we've seen in the LEGO Icons Modular Building line. On the ground floor of this building, we can find the music store called Brickleys, recognisable by a trumpet hanging over the glass door. The other two floors are rumoured to house a flower shop and an apartment. On the right, we can find the furniture store, located in a much darker coloured building with its brown beige tones. Just like the music store, the furniture store is only found on the ground floor with a double glass door and a sale sign out front. Inside there are various tables, chairs, draws and more. Some of these may even be found in the apartment above the store, which also includes a roof terrace. 11371 Shopping Street Modular Building Set Name - Shopping Street Modular Building Set Number - 11371 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 3,456 Price - $229.99 / €229.99 / £199.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 11371 Shopping Street Modular Building releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

The first leaked images of LEGO NINJAGO 71859 The Dragon of Life have emerged, giving fans their first look at one of the more expensive and most anticipated sets releasing for the theme on the 1st of January 2026. With 1,050 pieces retailing for $109.99 / €99.99 / £89.99, the 8+ build adds to the ever-growing collection of extremely detailed brick-built dragons, likely based on the upcoming fourth season of Dragons Rising. The Dragon of Life is a large, majestic creature built from an earthy palette of greens, browns and dark greys, giving it a natural, ancient look. The body is long and heavily articulated with a posable jaw, head, neck, legs, ankle, claws and tail. Its wings, made from printed plastic pieces representing leaves, can also fold inward or unfurl dramatically outward, supported by LEGO Technic ball joints. The overall build is somewhat similar to 2024's 71822 Source Dragon of Motion in terms of its shaping, scale and sharp golden claws. They contrast nicely with the mainly brown and green dragon body, with a tan coloured belly. The head is basically entirely brown with horns that resemble branches, while the back legs are grey, likely representing rock work with a couple of hints of mossy green. Away from the Dragon of Life, a small environmental side build is also included, representing a patch of forest. This includes a thin brick-built tree and a plant structure which can be spun to reveal a hidden golden sword. Unsurprisingly, a brick-built mech has also crept its way into 71859, which appears in an earthy colour scheme and includes a cockpit with space for a single LEGO Minifigure . And talking about Minifigures, the $110 set includes a total of eight LEGO NINJAGO -themed characters. These include ninja Zane, Sora, Arin, dragon form Lloyd, and dragon form Cole, along with the villainous trio of Acid Monster, Earth Monster and Loyalist Leader. One of these Minifigures can even be placed on the Dragon of Life, which has a built-in saddle for further playability. 71859 The Dragon of Life Set Name - The Dragon of Life Set Number - 71859 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 1,050 Price - $109.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 71859 The Dragon of Life releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

The celebrations have begun for the LEGO NINJAGO theme with today's official reveal showcasing one of the many sets headlining the brand's 15th anniversary celebrations: 71858 Four Weapons Blacksmith 15th Anniversary. The 14+ model is a highly detailed display and play set, featuring 1,259 pieces and six Minifigures retailing for just $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99. The anniversary-branded model takes inspiration from one of the most iconic early LEGO NINJAGO  locations - the blacksmith's forge from the pilot episode of the popular TV series. This is where the Four Golden Weapons were first created, and having only appeared in brick-built LEGO form just once before with 2011's 2508 Blacksmith Shop, it is the perfect nostalgic model of the theme's big birthday. The overall set measures over 7 inches (18 cm) high, 9 inches (23 cm) wide and 6 inches (16 cm) deep , depicting a traditional Japanese-inspired wooden structure with curved roofing and a couple of hanging lights. The shop somewhat expands across two storeys, with the ground floor being dedicated to the forge itself and a bedroom, whilst the upper area/attic stores a ninja mask and helmet. The forge section of the build includes an anvil along with weapons, tools and a blue phone hanging on the wall. Opposite this is a bedroom with a small bed, a couple of hanging photos and more weapons on display. The interior is fully accessible as hinge connections allow the Four Weapons Blacksmith to be opened up. Behind those previously mentioned helmet and hood displays, builders can push out a sign to reveal the golden weapons map. Along with this extremely detailed 14+ build, a total of six Minifigures are included. These are Blacksmith Kai, Maya, Nya, Master Wu, Ray and Elemental Master of Earth. The latter LEGO Minifigure  is one of seven exclusive LEGO NINJAGO 15th anniversary Minifigures  releasing in 2026 and includes a small stand which can be connected to the other six Minifigures, which await us next year. 71858 Four Weapons Blacksmith 15th Anniversary Set Name - Four Weapons Blacksmith 15th Anniversary Set Number - 71858 Age Range - 14+ Piece Count - 1,259 Price - $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 71858 Four Weapons Blacksmith 15th Anniversary releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?
