LEGO's Wallace & Gromit Block Set Celebrates 50 Years of Aardman

Britain's Aardman Animations has been delivering joy and laughter through beloved claymation franchises since 1976. As the studio celebrates its 50th anniversary, The LEGO Group will release a Wallace & Gromit Block Set.

Originally conceptualized by Sébastien Esnault, a Fan-Designer also known as Pidelium in the LEGO Ideas community, the project finally sees a release during Fall 2026. The Wallace & Gromit set—part of the "90s Throwback – The Next Chapter" challenge—features the dynamic duo riding their iconic motorbike and sidecar from the 1995 film, Wallace & Gromit: A Close Shave.

LEGO Model Designers Tom Gerardin and Ellen Bowley turned the initial idea into an official 1,038-piece set that turns clay into plastic blocks that promote creativity and play.

"Beyond the characters themselves, this scene perfectly captures the spirit of Wallace & Gromit," shared Esnault. "It brings together everything that defines them: inventiveness, humor, friendship and a sense of adventure."

This 1,038-piece retro LEGO® display set measures over 9 inches (23 cm) tall, 9 inches (23 cm) long, and 7 inches (18 cm) wide. Iconic accessories included in the set are crackers, a yarn ball, and diamond in the motorbike seat hatch.

Other anniversary-celebrating releases from The LEGO Group consist of the Nike Air Force 1 Block Set by LEGO®.

Pre-orders are now open via LEGO.com. The Wallace & Gromit block set is priced at $100 and ships beginning Thursday, Oct. 1.
