Every Nintendo LEGO Set Confirmed for This Year (So Far)

The collaboration between LEGO and Nintendo has quickly become a highlight for LEGO enthusiasts, and 2026 promises to be another fantastic year. We can expect everything from small Animal Crossing sets to a large Legend of Zelda build featuring a famous boss battle, and a massive collection of Pokemon sets—possibly the biggest Nintendo-themed LEGO release yet. There’s already a lot available, and even more confirmed for the future, along with a few interesting rumors to watch out for. Here’s a complete list of the Nintendo LEGO sets confirmed for 2026, plus those intriguing whispers about what might be coming.

Tom Nook and the Flying Present (#30731)

  • $4.99
  • 33 Pieces
  • March 2026

As a LEGO and Animal Crossing fan, I have to say this little polybag is a surprisingly big deal! Tom Nook has been notoriously hard to get your hands on – he only appeared in one set previously! This set changes that, and for just five bucks! You get Nook, a cute little green base with flowers, and a present hanging from a balloon – it perfectly captures that iconic floating present mechanic from the game. Honestly, it’s the easiest and cheapest way to finally add Tom Nook to your LEGO collection, and I’m thrilled about it.

Ocarina of Time – The Final Battle (#77093)

  • $129.99
  • 1,003 Pieces
  • March 1, 2026

The Final Battle set is the clear standout of Nintendo’s 2026 LEGO collection, and it lives up to the hype. It beautifully recreates the epic final showdown from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, including Ganondorf’s crumbling castle. Despite having just 1,003 pieces, the set is packed with impressive details and features, like moving debris, a button that makes Ganondorf rise from the ruins, and three hidden hearts to discover.

For fans of Zelda, the LEGO set feels worth the price, especially considering the included minifigures: Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf. It also features a large-scale Ganon brick figure and a miniature Navi. The set is completed with iconic weapons and accessories like the Master Sword, Megaton Hammer, and Hylian Shield, plus two capes for Ganondorf. This LEGO set beautifully recreates a memorable scene from the game and is impressive enough to be proudly displayed, not just stored away.

Luigi & Kart (#72050)

  • TBD Price
  • TBD Pieces
  • April 2026

Not much is known about this upcoming LEGO set yet, but early information suggests it will be a fun addition to the Mario Kart series. Rumors indicate it’s called Luigi & Kart and will be released alongside the Mario & Standard Kart set (#72037) planned for 2025, potentially creating a collectible series. Considering how popular the Mario Kart LEGO sets have been, a Luigi-themed set feels like a natural next step. While the price and number of pieces are still unknown, it’s currently expected to be available in April 2026.

Ones to Watch — Unconfirmed Mario and Animal Crossing Sets

Two more LEGO sets are reportedly in the works from Nintendo, though details are currently scarce. An upcoming Mario set (number 72051) is expected to have around 1,367 pieces, similar in size to the large Prince Florian & Castle Bowser set planned for 2025. Additionally, a potential Animal Crossing set (number 77059) has been listed for $59.99 and is anticipated to release in Summer 2026. This set would likely follow the Tom Nook polybag and be a moderately sized addition to the Animal Crossing LEGO collection, though its exact contents are still unknown.

Pokemon Is 2026’s Biggest Nintendo LEGO Story

Pokémon is set to be a major focus for LEGO in 2026, far more than any other Nintendo property. LEGO has already announced and is planning a huge range of Pokémon sets this year, including large collector’s items and smaller, affordable sets. These sets will cover Pokémon from the very beginning – the original Kanto starters – all the way to more recent popular choices. Here’s a look at what’s been confirmed or is likely coming soon.

Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise (#72153)

  • $649.99
  • 6,838 Pieces
  • February 27, 2026

The LEGO Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise set (#72153) is a truly impressive collaboration between LEGO and Nintendo. With a massive 6,838 pieces and a price of $649.99, it brings the final evolved forms of the three original Kanto region Pokémon together in one amazing build. Each Pokémon is highly detailed and posable – Venusaur has moving vines and feet, Blastoise features a head, arms, and water cannons that can be adjusted, and Charizard’s wings, legs, arms, and head are all fully posable.

These collectible figures can be displayed individually or combined on a special stand featuring three environments – a beach, jungle, and volcano – to match each Pokémon’s type. The set also includes a fun hidden detail for fans to discover! As a bonus, purchasing this set unlocks the Kanto Region Badge Collection (with 312 pieces!), which features all eight gym badges from the Kanto region – Boulder, Cascade, Thunder, Rainbow, Soul, Marsh, Volcano, and Earth – displayed in a Poke Ball-shaped case.

Pikachu and Poke Ball (#72152)

  • $199.99
  • 2,050 Pieces
  • February 27, 2026

This detailed Pikachu figure is another highlight releasing in late February, sure to please any dedicated fan. The bright yellow figure is fully posable, with accurate details like black ear tips, red cheeks, and electric sparks. Its display base includes the number “25,” a reference to Pikachu’s official Pokedex entry. You can pose Pikachu leaping out of an open Poke Ball for a battle scene, or display it relaxing inside a closed ball.

According to some fans, the Pikachu and Poke Ball set is disappointing in person, unfortunately.

Eevee (#72151)

  • $59.99
  • 587 Pieces
  • February 27, 2026

The LEGO Pokémon Eevee set offers a more affordable way to start collecting the 2026 LEGO Pokémon line, launching in February at a great price. While details are scarce beyond the number of pieces and cost, Eevee is a fan favorite, making this a highly anticipated smaller set. At $59.99, it’s an easy addition to a larger LEGO purchase.

Mini Pokémon Center (#40911)

  • 233 Pieces
  • February 27, 2026

This Pokémon set is a bit unique. The Mini Pokémon Center isn’t sold in stores – it’s only available as a reward for Pokémon Center Insiders members who redeem 2,500 points. While it’s a smaller set with 233 pieces, the Pokémon Center is a beloved location, making it a great reward for loyal fans.

Summer 2026 and Beyond

LEGO is planning a big release of Pokémon sets, starting with some in February and a much larger wave in Summer 2026. We already know some of the set names: Squirtle’s Training Buggy Adventure, Charmander’s Wild Encounter with Geodude, Pikachu’s Training House, Cubone vs. Gengar’s Ghost Challenge, Jolteon vs. Charizard, and a set focused on Scorbunny’s evolution. There’s also talk of future sets including Eevee evolutions, a Dojo House with Riolu, a Mewtwo Lab, and a Stadium Bus. A smaller, more affordable set called Smart Play: Pikachu’s House is rumored to cost around $70, but details on all these upcoming sets are still limited.

Several LEGO sets have confirmed prices but haven’t been officially named yet. These include a $69.99 set with 757 pieces, a larger $259.99 set with 2,339 pieces, a $99.99 set with 1,190 pieces, and a $129.99 set with 1,038 pieces. Considering what we already know is coming, these mystery sets could turn out to be some of the most exciting releases of the year.
