LEGO Brings Gizmo to Life With New GREMLINS Set
LEGO is giving fans of 1980s cinema something to smile about with the upcoming LEGO Ideas Gremlins Gizmo set, which is now available for pre-order. Launching on October 1st, this collectible brings the adorable Mogwai to brick-built life without the chaos of his gremlin side.
Born out of last year’s LEGO Ideas “If We Can Turn Back Time” contest, the set clocks in at 1,125 pieces and is packed with details that make Gizmo not just cute, but fully poseable.
Builders can rotate his head, adjust his ears, move his arms, hands, fingers, and feet, and even choose to display him standing or sitting. To top it off, Gizmo comes with his iconic brick-built 3D glasses, just like in the movie.
LEGO describes the set, saying: “Show your affection for the cutest Mogwai in the 1984 movie Gremlins™ with a LEGO® Ideas posable figure of Gizmo (21361). This collectible model building set for adults allows you to capture all of Gizmo’s adorable characteristics in LEGO style.
“Assemble the Gizmo figure so he is either standing up or sitting down. Rotate his head and adjust his ears, arms, hands, fingers and feet to create different looks. The set also includes iconic accessories to make your display even more irresistible: a water splash element, alluding to how water makes Mogwais replicate, which attaches to Gizmo’s back, plus brick-built 3D glasses like the ones Gizmo used to read comic books.”
They also add: “This LEGO Ideas building set for adults makes a delightful nostalgic gift for movie lovers, allowing them to create fantasy decor that will make any Gremlins fan smile. Set contains 1,125 pieces.”
When fully built, Gizmo measures 8 inches tall, 10.5 inches wide, and 3.5 inches deep, making him an ideal display piece for both LEGO collectors and longtime fans of Gremlins.
The LEGO Ideas Gremlins Gizmo set is priced at $109.99 and is available for pre-order now through LEGO’s official website, with its official release set for October 1st.
This one’s a must-have for fans who grew up with the classic film or anyone looking to add a little mischievous nostalgia to their LEGO collection.
