• THE LEGO® DESPICABLE ME 4 SETS WILL BE AVAILABLE BEGINNING MAY 1, 2024
• ILLUMINATION’S DESPICABLE ME 4 ARRIVES IN THEATERS WORLDWIDE JULY 3, 2024

Billund, April 3, 2024: Today, the LEGO Group, Illumination and Universal Products & Experiences are confirming that they are in fact partnering on something new – although not a giant Minion, as a recent April Fools post on social media would suggest. To celebrate the July 3 release of Illumination’s Despicable Me 4, the newest chapter in the biggest global animated franchise in history, the partnership is launching exclusive new LEGO Despicable Me 4 sets.

The new range of four products includes two sets that were revealed in a sneak-peek video clip today. The first set is the LEGO Despicable Me 4 Minions and Gru’s Family Mansion with its iconic architecture and beloved movie items, such as the red couch, fireplace and rocket-style bedroom, as well as a brightly colored tree house. The second set is a Brick-Built Gru with dancing Minions – complete with a ukulele-playing Mel and Kevin, armed with his fart gun.

LEGO has officially announced a brand new Despicable Me set with the Supersized Tim (75553). The build consists of 102,213 pieces and measures at 2.5 meters tall. The instruction manual itself contains 8,947 pages which supposedly takes you over a year to build but there are some fast builders that can finish before that. There’s also a gift with purchase item includes which are some safety straps to help you move the box. There’s no mentioning yet on the release date or the pricing but those details should be coming soon.
