Top 10 Lego Sets of 2020
#10: LEGO Ideas - International Space Station
10 Most Controversial LEGO Sets
Know someone who’s fascinated with space or, at least, the technology used? Well, the LEGO Ideas lineup has a build perfect for them! Unfortunately, this 864-piece build does not float around like the real International Space Station. However, it does sit upon two dark columns that can give it the illusion of floating with the right amount of lighting and shadow. To effectively design this miniaturized build, Lego actually got in contact with the various space agencies and scientists so they could replicate the ISS on just about every detail. In addition to the space station, you’ll also get to build a tiny ship and pod, bringing the whole space experience together.
#9: LEGO Creator Expert - Bookshop
Top 10 Most Hard-to-Find LEGO Sets
It can be hard to sit down and read a good book when there are distractions around. With the Bookshop build from LEGO Creator Expert, your reading area just got a little calmer. While it looks easy to build from the outside, the set clocks in at just a little over 2,500 pieces, providing a rewarding challenge. One of the coolest bits about this two-building set is that not only can you arrange them whatever way you want, you can use duplicate sets to create additional floors. Guess it’s time to give your minifigs a library of their own!
#8: LEGO Star Wars - Advent Calendar
5 Awesome Gifts For Gamers Who Love LEGO
Even though “Star Wars” and Christmas never really went together, Lego has finally given us a set to make us forget that weird special ever happened. For the past several years, Lego has been making advent calendars containing twenty-four tiny sets based on various “Star Wars” locations, ships, and characters. And this year’s is definitely one you’ll want to grab! On top of a Porg, snow Gonk, and Anakin’s podracer, builders will enjoy a special version of the Darth Vader minifig sporting his own ugly Christmas sweater. We actually might be picking this one up for ourselves!
#7: LEGO Technic Fast & Furious - Dom’s Dodge Charger
Top 10 Lego Sets Based on TV Shows
The Lego Technic lineup is great for aspiring engineers and technicians, but movie fans might also want to dip their toes into the Technic products after seeing this! “Fast & Furious” fans, Dom’s Dodge Charger has been Lego-fied, and the Dutch toy company went all out to make this look as much of a beast as the real thing! The build features a detailed V8 engine complete with working pistons, a couple of nitrous canisters in the back, and a retractable stand to prop up the car. As much as we wish it came with a Vin Diesel minifig, there’s already enough detail to show that Lego has gone above and beyond.
#6: LEGO Old Trafford - Manchester United
Top 10 Amazing LEGO Sets You Can Actually Buy
Seeing LEGO sets themed around sports is rare, which is what makes this build so special. Soccer fans now have a set to add to their living room or home theater with this replica of Old Trafford, home of UK football team Manchester United. Consisting of nearly 3,900 pieces, the LEGO-fied Old Trafford comes with details that pay respect to the 110-year-old stadium - including the clock commemorating the 1958 Munich air disaster, and micro-figures dedicated to Sir Matt Busby and the United Trinity. Whether you’re a fan of soccer or appreciate sports history, this is a set you shouldn’t miss out on!
#5: LEGO Star Wars: The Mandalorian - The Razor Crest
Top 20 Surprising LEGO Facts
With the show exploding in late 2019 (and still keeping our attention today), it was only a matter of time before “The Mandalorian” started getting LEGO-fied. Of all the sets made so far, the Razor Crest is the absolute best! It’s doable in a shorter amount of time than most sets on the list, consisting of just a little over a thousand pieces. Of course, it comes with a minifig of our intimidating Mandalorian, but you also get a Scout Trooper, the hilarious assassin-turned-nanny IG-11, Greef Karga, and--OH MY GAWD!! Would you look at that Baby Yoda!! So smol!
#4: LEGO Super Mario Sets
What If You Were Made Of Lego? | Unveiled
One of the biggest announcements from LEGO this year was the reveal of sets based on Super Mario, and while they weren’t the kind of sets we were expecting, there is a lot of fun to be had here! Thanks to the design of each expansion and how Mario was programmed, users can create and customize their courses in an unlimited number of ways. You can even nab sets based on locations like Bowser’s Castle and Mario’s house, or grab Power-Up packs to give Mario new abilities in your courses. With new expansions due to release in the near future, it looks like LEGO will be supporting this line for quite some time. Will you build the ultimate Mario course?
#3: LEGO Creator - Fairground Haunted House
What If We Made Buildings Out of Lego?
Did things get a little spooky in here? Say hello to a member of the Fairground Collection, simply titled “Haunted House”. Don’t worry - this isn’t a REAL haunted house. It’s actually a charming little theme park ride. Named after classic LEGO villain Baron Von Barron, MANOR Von Barron features various references to old LEGO sets, an elevator to drop guests from the top floor, and even a set of self-opening doors! Could that eerie painting in the attic hold a dark secret? Well, you’ll have to get your hands on this thirty-two hundred-piece set to see it for yourself!
#2: LEGO Stars Wars - Mos Eisley Cantina
How Lego Put Their Pieces Back Together
Let’s face it - those Death Star and Millenium Falcon sets are insanely expensive and hard to find. For those of you who do have the cash, you may have found a new Star Wars set that’s just as creative and detailed as previous builds. The Mos Eisley Cantina consists of more than 3,100 pieces and folds out so you can admire the entire bar. On top of that, the set includes 21 minifigs so you can populate the cantina and even recreate moments from “A New Hope”. You can even remove the roof to get a better look at the many hidden references and details!
