The Best Lego Sets of 2026

Lego is a unique toy company.

Lego sets appeal to kids and adults alike, with a wide range of themes like F1, Star Wars, and art. This variety helped the company make record profits in 2025. Many people want Lego sets, and the company keeps making new ones.

Lego always tries new things and came out with the Smart Brick this year. They also made the biggest Lego set ever, the Sagrada Família, with 12,060 pieces. Lego has many new products and collaborations, which can be overwhelming. I picked the best new Lego sets of 2026 so far.

I only chose sets that you can buy now, not ones you can preorder. Here are my top picks, in no particular order, plus one special mention.

Lego introduced the Smart Play series with three Star Wars sets in January 2026. These sets work with smart bricks that make sounds and lights when you move them. You don't have to make your own sound effects anymore.

The Lego Art series has a new set, a plastic brick version of Claude Monet's Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies. It's very nice and was made with the help of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

This set is the most expensive in the Lego painting series, but it's also the biggest and most impressive. It has 3,179 pieces and is 21 by 17 by two inches. You can hang it on your wall like real art.

The Lego Botanicals sets are very good, and the Magnolia Branches set is one of the best. It's a nice flower that will never die and adds color to a room.

The Magnolia Branches set is special because it's a fun build that doesn't take too long. You can also choose a vase to go with it, which makes it personal. People who bought this set like that they can pick their own vase.

It's surprising that Lego didn't make a Pokémon set until now, but the 30th anniversary of the trading card game made it happen.

The Pokémon set is expensive, but it's a very detailed replica of three Kanto region icons. It has 6,838 pieces and is a big commitment, but it's worth it for fans.

Lego has many cute animal sets, but the Floating Sea Otters stand out. They're very adorable, and you can pose them in different ways.

The sea otters are cute, and you can pose the mom and baby. You can also swap in a clam with a pearl, which is a nice touch. The set is just very nice and fun.

If you liked the movie Project Hail Mary, you might want to get the Lego set of the ship from the movie. It comes with a mini Ryland Grace and Rocky.

This set is a great way to remember the movie and is a very detailed model. It's a good choice for fans of the movie and Lego.

If you like F1 or fast cars, this Lego set is for you. It's a model of the car that Lando Norris won the 2025 season in.

The set is very detailed, with a removable engine cover and movable parts. You can look at the engine or the suspension, which is very cool.

Lego and Minecraft are a great match, and the design of The Fox set proves it. The set looks like it came from the game and has movable parts.

The Fox set is very affordable and has nice details. You can pose the head and legs, and it's a great choice for video game fans.

The Lord of the Rings set is not for casual fans, and the price tag shows that. It's a very detailed and big set, but it's expensive.

This set is one of the newest on the list and is currently sold out. Fans of The Lord of the Rings will want to wait for it to come back in stock.

I didn't want to include sets that aren't out yet, but the trainable Lego Pokémon sets are too good to leave out. They're an honorable mention.

Lego announced the new Smart Play line in June, which includes 12 sets that let you battle Pokémon in real life. You can preorder them now, and they'll be out on August 1.

Lego has many great sets, and these are some of the best.
