Just yesterday we kept you up to date with the latest information about the brand new LEGO Wicked theme but that isn't the only new license launching in brick-built form on the 1st of October 2024. Along with four sets for the LEGO Fortnite and LEGO Wicked themes respectively, the popular Netflix show Wednesday will also become a fully-fledged LEGO theme from the start of October with two licensed brick-built models.
Wednesday itself debuted on Netflix back in 2022 and since then has become the third most successful Netflix series of all time behind Squid Game and Stranger Things. The series is a spin-off of the original 1991 film The Addams Family, focusing on the daughter of the family who is unsurprisingly called Wednesday.
Wednesday herself is played by Jenna Ortega and will be appearing as a minidoll in one of the two sets rumoured to kick off this brand-new theme. In particular, this is the only Minifigure scale set of the wave of 76781 Wednesday's Bedroom which retails for $89.99 / €89.99 / £TBC with a total of 750 pieces included. Along with Wednesday Addams herself, Enid Sinclair is included as an exclusive minidoll in 76781 and a new piece/mould is used for the Thing.
As the name suggests, the set will be a brick-built recreation of Wednesday's Bedroom which she shares with Enid at Nevermore Academy, a boarding school for monstrous outsiders. The iconic round window will likely be the centerpiece of the model along with the usual furniture for a bedroom. Hopefully, a couple of play features are also included to recreate scenes from the popular Netflix series.
And the other of the two sets is another buildable characters model of 76780 Buildable Wednesday, Enid & Thing. All three of the main characters of the series are included for a total of $49.99 / €49.99 / £TBC with 702 pieces included. This is a very reasonable price but many fans, including ourselves, would have liked to have seen another scene or location recreated from the show to go alongside 76781.
