Lego’s Wild New ‘Stranger Things’ Set Takes You Inside Vecna’s Mind

It’s been six years since Lego first went to the Upside Down stranger things set (aside from a brief detour of Brick Maker’s chibi “Brickheadz” figures), and it feels like we’ve been waiting just that long for the final season to arrive (thankfully, it wasn’t quite that long). He Bad wait) But now, both of them are meeting each other again in a coincidental moment.

Today LEGO officially unveiled its next stranger things The set, Creel House, is timed to celebrate the launch of the show’s fifth and final season on Netflix. The new 2,593-piece set lets fans build a 20-inch-wide, approximately 12-inch-tall mask that mimics the Gothic manor owned by the Creel family… that, with a flip of a lever, can instantly disintegrate and expand into a fragmented version of the house that forms Vecna’s lair of the mind, complete with a ghostly grandfather clock at its center.

As well as the transformative feature, the Creel House set includes a series of other rooms behind the facade stranger things Easter eggs, including Alice and Henry’s bedroom, and even a little hidden feature that lets you “transform” the included Henry minifigure (in his season five guise as the mysterious “Mr. Whatsit”) into Vecna’s new and improved form. In addition to the house, the set also lets you build two small vehicles with it: a WSQK radio van and Steve’s beloved red Beamer.

Minifigures are required to run all the diorama’s goodness, and the Creel House will come with a set. Thirteen characters are included, including the aforementioned Mr. Whatsit/Henry and Vecna, Mike, Lucas, Dustin, Will, Eleven, Max, and Holly, as well as Steve, Nancy, Jonathan, and Robin. If you purchase the set in the first week of release via the bonus gift with a set recreating WSQK’s recording booth at the radio station, you can get two more, which come with minifigures of Joyce Byers and an appropriately very bearded Hopper… and of course a printed LEGO tile mimicking Squawk’s rubber chicken mascot.

The Creel House set will be available from January 1st – just in time for the release of the final episode stranger things in theaters and only on Netflix—and sells for $300. At least you’ll have plenty to look at while you build!
