Many LEGO themes and licenses have kicked off the new year in style with plenty of new releases, iconic locations recreated in brick-built form and brand-new, exclusive Minifigures. One of the themes missing from the flurry of January 1st releases was the ever-present LEGO Ideas theme. But LEGO has thankfully today presented the first of many models releasing in 2025 of 21354 Twilight The Cullen House
The latest 18+ LEGO model includes a total of 2,001 pieces retailing for $219.99 / €219.99 / £189.99 once it releases on the 1st of February 2025. Twilight The Cullen House won the first review of 2023 alongside the already available 21353 The Botanical Garden. Just like that November 2024 model, 21354 is Minifigure based and therefore includes some brand new prints for a range of exclusive characters in LEGO form.
The original submission by LobsterThermidor included four Minifigures from the popular film series of Bella, Jacob, Edward and Calisle Cullen. However, the original submission also included exactly 2,995 pieces - almost 1,000 more than the official set - suggesting that plenty of design changes have been made as can be seen from today's official images.
The overall build may be a smaller size but the Minifigure selection is much larger including a total of seven exclusive characters. These are Bella Swan, Edward Cullen (with sparkle effect), Jacob Black, Carlisle Cullen, Alice Cullen, Charlie Swan and Rosalie Hale. Also included is a brick-built version of Jacob in a fully posable wolf form.
The main build is obviously a brick-built interpretation of the iconic three-story “Hoke House” which was used as the Cullen family residence in the Twilight Saga films. LEGO have stayed true to the original incorporating a slick brick-built design coloured mainly grey and dark orange. A small driveway with a garage door, a section of scenery and a large thin tree is included in the model's exterior.
Being a set based on both books and movies, 21354 Twilight The Cullen House is packed full of details and references. Various rooms are included across the three floors of the house with the ground floor showcasing a beautifully brick-built grand piano that Edward Bella plays in the first film.
Moving on to the second floor we have the kitchen and living room located next to a range of windows allowing plenty of light into the detchable house. Here we can find a range of "normal" human food, hanging baseball caps and a range of stickered picture frames. Above these rooms is Edward's room with his record collection and player. Once again, similar to the original model, Edward can jump directly out of his bedroom window while Bella sits on his back and escapes into the forest.
