The New Lego Sets Dropping in June Include a Ton of New Disney, Marvel, and Bluey Sets, and So Much More https://ift.tt/gnQ9jJz

It's almost the start of a new month, so you know what that means -- new Lego sets are about to drop. As usual, Lego will release an eclectic batch of new sets on June 1. These new kits range widely across many different IPs, like Bluey and Star Wars to Marvel and even Shrek. But there are also a handful of new first-party sets, like the ever-popular Botanicals line and some creative new 3-in-1 builds. And while the majority of June's drops come out on the first of the month, there are couple massive display sets on available just a few days later on June 4. There are two, and they're both incredibly detailed recreations of some iconic locations. The Disneyland Main Street USA set for $400, which features the timeless build up to Disney's first park. Then there's the Lord of the Rings Minas Tirith build for $650, which will be one of the largest sets in history at 8,278 pieces.

All of these sets are available to preorder now directly through Lego, with some that can be purchased through Amazon as well. And if you're a Lego Insider, you can gain early access to the June 4 sets a day or two early. We've broken down every set below, separated my theme or category, with links to retailers that are currently offering preorders.

Lego Star Wars

Lego Star Wars Stormtrooper Helmet.

June is an uncharacteristically slow month for Star Wars, but it makes sense given that we just had a slew of new releases to help celebrate May the 4th, like the Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter. You can get an oversized, fully brick-built Darth Vader or an Imperial Remnant AT-RT Driver Helmet for display.

Lego Botanicals

Lego Botanicals Cosmo Flowers.

The Botanicals line services a much wider audience than the typical licensed sets we see, and are some of the most fun and intricate builds to get lost in; I even have a few to spruce up my shelves at home. We get three new ones in June -- two smaller builds and a much larger and colorful mushrooms set.

Lego 3-in-1 Sets

Lego 3-in-1 Pirate Ship.

The Creator 3-in-1 sets are always some of must innovative and inventive in Lego's catalogue. June sees the releases of seven new modular builds, with plenty of different animals, structures, and plants available to create.

Lego Fortnite

There have been a nice collection of video game-themed Lego sets over the years, with Fortnite getting a wider selection than most. We're getting four new ones in June, and like the previous kits these all depict iconic locations and characters from the popular battle royale.

Lego Marvel

Lego Marvel Hulk Smash Set.

The Marvel universe is no stranger to receiving the Lego treatment, much like other properties coming out in June, but it's always nice to see Lego revisit certain sets with modernized designs and build techniques, and offer more sets for young ones their Ages 4+ line of sets. For the more hardcore Lego maniacs, the new S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier set is an intricately designed new version of the vessel we've come to know from the movies and comics. We'll get six new Marvel kits on June 1.

Lego Minecraft

Lego Minecraft farm.

Minecraft and Lego go together like peanut butter and jelly. We've had a few Minecraft builds over the years, but with how massive of a success the Minecraft Movie was, it makes sense for Lego to dream up some new sets for new and old fans alike. We're getting six new ones come June, each one once again recreating the world fans have been playing for years.

Lego BrickHeadz

Lego Alice in Wonderland BrickHeadz.

The BrickHeadz line of Lego sets is a personal favorite of mine. Imagine if you could get a Funko Pop! figure, but build it; that's essentially what these are, and they cover tons of different properties from over the years. Lego is dropping four new ones in June, but I've only listed three here with the last one in the category after this.

Lego Shrek

Lego Shrek, Donkey, and Puss in Boots.

Shrek is the newest movie to get the brick treatment, and honestly I'm surprised it took this long. We'll be getting two brand new sets for June featuring everyone's favorite green ogre and pals. It feels like only a matter of time until we see Shrek's swamp cottage in brick form.

Lego Ninjago

Lego Ninjago Dragon Battle.

Ninjago is easily the biggest and most popular ongoing line of sets with original characters, and has spawned plenty of animated movies and TV shows and even a few video games. Ninjago builds are always super detailed and, honestly, look cool as hell. But they also each offer some of the most unique and different minifigure pieces Lego has ever done, like snake-like bodies and rock monster heads. We'll be getting 10 new Ninjago sets in June.

Lego Harry Potter

Lego Hogwarts Castle East Wing.

The Wizarding World has been synonymous with Lego since the first movie hit theaters in 2001, and we've seen multiple iterations of iconic scenes, characters, and story moments since then -- we've even gotten a few sets for the prequel/ spin-off films Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. In June, you can expect seven new Harry Potter sets, fitting given the importance of the number 7 in the books.

Lego Disney

Lego Disneyland Main Street USA,

Disney has also seen its fair share of Lego depictions, using both the regular brick and minifigures and the Friends minifigure style. The massive Disney Castle set is one of the more popular kits around, and the Pirates of the Caribbean sets were a nice callback to some of Lego's earlier days. With June's batch of new Disney sets, we're getting 10 new kits themed around recent movies and Disney princesses.

Lego Speed Champions

Lego Fast & Furious Speed Champions.

Lego cars are many collector's go-to product line, and the Back to the Future DeLorean from earlier this year is one I couldn't wait to get my hands on, which was tough due to high often it was out of stock. The Fast and The Furious cars have been part of Speed Champions for quite some time, so it makes sense we'll be getting more in June, for a total of three new sets.

Lego Technic

Lego Fast & Furious Charger.

You may not know it, but Technic has been around since the '90s. Opting instead for more engineering-adjacent connection techniques compared to the traditional brick system, Technic sets are usually much larger and more detailed than a regular Lego set. We get four new ones come June.

Lego Bluey

Lego Brick-Built Bluey Family.

Australian children's show Bluey has been a hit for both kids and parents alike. She and her family aren't new to receiving the Lego treatment, but this new batch of four sets coming in June includes new DUPLO builds for early Lego fans.

Lego City

Lego City Adventure Van.

City is another line of sets that have been around since the dawn of our favorite interlocking brick system. These have always offered a more realistic, slice-of-life take on Lego bricks compared to the more fantastical sets we've seen over the years. We get some new City sets almost every month, and in June we'll be getting two more to add to the collection.

More Lego Sets Out in June

Lego The Lord of the Rings: Minas Tirith.

Rounding out June's impressive lineup are the sets that either don't quite fit into a bespoke category or belong to a property with only one set coming out for the month. Some notable inclusions are the SEGA Genesis Console and the adorable Peanuts: Snoopy's Doghouse sets, and of course the gargantuan Lord of the Rings; Minas Tirith set that would be right at home in any Tolkien fan's collection. The New York City - The Big Apple skyline set is the latest in the Architecture line to join cities like London and Sydney, with a beautiful and cleverly-built night sky backdrop.
