According to a trusted source, the long-awaited LEGO Minas Tirith set will be the biggest LEGO Lord of the Rings set ever created. This information gives us a better idea of how many pieces the set will include, as well as its potential price and recommended age, which LEGO fans can anticipate in the coming year.
Rumors suggest that LEGO is planning a Minas Tirith set based on The Lord of the Rings, potentially releasing it in 2026. The initial reports appeared in September 2025 on the LEGO community site, The Brick Tap. A month later, more details surfaced, indicating the set might include minifigures of Gandalf the White, King Aragorn, Faramir, Pippin, Denethor, and several Gondor soldiers.
LEGO’s 2026 Minas Tirith Set Rumored to Be Even Larger Than Rivendell
According to LEGO leaker T and N Bricks, a massive Minas Tirith set is in development and will be the largest Lord of the Rings kit LEGO has ever released. They mentioned this in a now-deleted Instagram post from December 2025. Currently, the biggest Lord of the Rings set is Rivendell (set 10316), with 6,167 pieces, making it the ninth-largest LEGO set overall. If the new Minas Tirith set is bigger, it could contain between 6,168 and 11,694 pieces – potentially making it the second-largest LEGO set ever, just behind the Art World Map (31203).
LEGO’s Minas Tirith Set Likely to Retail for no Less Than $500
Traveller’s Tales / WB Games Based on the latest rumors, we can estimate the price of the upcoming Minas Tirith LEGO set will likely start around $499.99 – the same as the Rivendell set. It could cost even more if it turns out to be significantly larger, similar to the Death Star, which has over 9,000 pieces and costs $999.99. Given its anticipated size, the Minas Tirith set will almost certainly be designed for adults and older builders, like most large LEGO sets with thousands of pieces.
LEGO’s Lord of the Rings Push Now Expected to Continue for 4th Consecutive Year
Traveller’s Tales Minas Tirith, the seven-tiered capital city of Gondor and home to the Tower of Ecthelion, is a major landmark in The Lord of the Rings. Because of its impressive size, many believe a LEGO version could be the largest set in the LEGO Lord of the Rings collection. The city’s layered structure would be perfect for a detailed, large-scale LEGO model, featuring multiple levels of walls, gates, and a huge central citadel – all requiring a lot of LEGO pieces. If released as rumored in 2026, it would continue the trend of new LEGO Lord of the Rings sets being released every year for four years in a row.
