Lego’s fall lineup is looking to be an impressive one.
On the horizon is a classic Lego PlayStation set, the first-ever Mario minifigures, and a Wallace and Gromit scene perfectly encapsulated by the plastic bricks. The only downside? None of these sets is available for order or preorder just yet.
The good news is, plenty of worthwhile sets came out in September 2026. We’re talking Shrek, Gremlins, Christmas, and space. We gathered up eight of the best, all of which are in stock and available for purchase or preorder at the time of writing.
Lego Minifigures Shrek Series

Before there were blind boxes, there were Advent calendars. What better way to count down the days until Christmas than with 24 brand-new Star Wars-themed Legos? This calendar in particular focuses on the Mandalorian’s universe. As such, the pulls include the titular character and Grogu in fun holiday attire, as well as iconic vehicles and an X-wing in festive colors.

Lego Santa’s Holiday Countdown
Functional and adorable!

If Advent calendars aren’t so much your thing, Lego provided a solution that can be used year after year — a countdown clock overseen by the big guy himself. The nobs on either side of the clock allow you to manually check off the days, making it easy to keep track of how many days you have left to do your Christmas shopping (not for nothing — the first big sale of the holiday season is just around the corner).

When you think of iconic sneakers, Nike’s Air Force 1s are sure to come to mind. Lego gives fans a way to have their cake and eat it too — you can proudly wear your shoes and display one, minus the dirt from the ground. The minifig space man on the stand can also be adjusted 360 degrees.

El Día de los Muertos, or the Day of the Dead, is just around the corner, and Lego is giving fans a piece to adorn their homes with in honor of the day. La Catrina stands at 17 inches tall and can be posed in the best way possible to show off the butterflies and marigolds on her outfit.

The most famous telescope in the world, at home on your bookshelf.

In the past few months alone, Lego made a Project Hail Mary set and an Artemis set, which is to say, they keep space fans fed. Still, this Hubble telescope set stands out. This is, after all, the telescope that has brought humans images upon images of the far reaches of space. And now, you can display it in your living room (kind of).

Lego Batman Returns Batmobile

Lego first teased this set out last month, and now it’s officially here. The over-2,000-piece set is a recreation of the iconic vehicle from Tim Burton’s Batman Returns, including a canopy that opens to reveal the cockpit, steering wheel, and control panels, as well as a button that transforms that entire set into the Batmissile escape vehicle.
