LEGO has announced the winners of the LEGO Ideas First 2026 Review Stage. These sets originated as fan designs through the LEGO Ideas program, and have now been approved for official release. Among the newly announced upcoming sets is one based on the Christopher Nolan movie Interstellar. The other two sets to get approval during this review stage were Tulip Field Windmill and Chinese Cork Carving Art. As yet, there’s no word on pricing or official release dates for the newly approved sets.
The Interstellar set was submitted by fan designer Minibrick41587. It includes the wedge-shaped Ranger spacecraft from the movie, along with minifigures for the Matthew McConaughey character Cooper and the Anne Hathaway character Dr. Brand. Also included are the robot companions TARS and CASE.
While Interstellar wasn't immediately appreciated as one of Christopher Nolan's best films after its 2014 release (we gave it an 8/10 in our review), there's been a growing appreciation for the film in recent years among fans and critics. This LEGO set's approval may be another sign of its improving standing.
During this latest review stage, LEGO placed two additional LEGO Ideas submissions in the Parking Lot. These sets are The 5th Element, which features a flying taxi and a Multi Pass from the movie, and Peashooter, based on a weapon from the video game Plants vs. Zombies. ” They’ll stay in the Parking Lot until a final decision is made.
