Lego unveils building sets based on upcoming second movie

Published on: 22nd November 2018

Sets will be available at retail on 26th December, based on The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part.

The Lego Group has revealed a collection of 19 building sets inspired by The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, the much-anticipated sequel to the global box office success The Lego Movie.

The new sets offer something for the entire family; from a Lego Duplo set for the youngest of builders, to Lego System sets for kids and even adults, the collection leverages the entire Lego System of Play to enable fans of all ages to recreate the action and adventure of the film.

Matthew James Ashton, vice president of design at The Lego Group, commented: “Lego bricks have both inspired and been the medium of creative storytelling around the world for more than 60 years, so it’s no surprise that there is such anticipation for the sequel to our very first Lego theatrical film. The team had a blast collaborating with filmmakers to imagine new characters, vehicles, models and scenes that showcase the power of creativity and imagination throughout the film, and we can’t wait to see what Lego fans of all ages create as they build and re-build the film’s adventures.”

Building sets will be widely available in toy, discount merchandise and specialty stores and online channels, as well as the online Lego shop and in Lego Stores worldwide.

The film reunites the heroes of Bricksburg in an all-new adventure to save their beloved city. It’s been five years since everything was awesome and the citizens are facing a huge new threat – Lego Duplo invaders from outer space, wrecking everything faster than they can rebuild. The battle to defeat them will take Emmet, Lucy, Batman and their friends to faraway, unexplored worlds, and will test their courage, creativity and Master Building skills, revealing just how special they really are.
