LEGO Mario, Zelda Are Cool and All, But LEGO Really Should Be Doing More With This Nintendo IP in 2026

Okay, I know I’ve been spoiled with all the LEGO Animal Crossing sets lately, and maybe it sounds a little much to ask for more, but I just can’t help it – I’m a huge fan! The game fits the LEGO style so perfectly, I really think they could keep making sets for ages. Right now, for 2026, all we know about is one little polybag, and honestly, it makes me a bit envious when I see something as impressive as the Ganondorf set from Zelda. Getting a Julian minifigure and a tiny painting is sweet, but it feels like that shouldn’t be all we get. I’m hoping LEGO will surprise us with some bigger sets, but I’m trying not to get my hopes up too much since there aren’t any rumors about them. Seriously though, I have a ton of ideas for sets they could make!
