LEGO's latest new theme is edging ever closer to release as our first LEGO Despicable Me 4 set has been officially revealed today. It's been reported for a couple of months now that LEGO Despicable Me 4 will be joining the brick-built world of LEGO in 2024 along with other new licenses such as Animal Crossing and Dungeons & Dragons. And today one of four sets launching on the 1st of May 2024 has been presented to us.
Our first official LEGO Despicable Me 4 set is the smallest of the wave of 75580 Minions and Banana Car. The 6+ model will retail for $24.99 with 136 pieces. As we expected, the cheapest set of the wave is a fairly lacklustre build, heavily influenced by bigger pieces and moulds along with plenty of exclusive Minifigures/characters.
A couple of these bigger pieces and moulds are used to create the top and bottom of the banana-shaped vehicle. These elements are the only areas of the banana car that are yellow with the rest being fully open allowing a Minion to drive the car. Four regular-sized wheels are included on the banana car along with a highly powerful brick-built engine directly in front of the driver's seat.
As we already mentioned, 75580 Minions and Banana Car is controlled by a singular Minion but in total four Minions are included in the May 2024 model. These Minions are AVL Tim, Pit Crew Ron, Mega Minion Dave and Mel which are all exclusive to 75580. Even though the Despicable Me 4 set only includes 136 pieces for a high retail price of $25, four exclusive Minifigures make this set much more appealing.
