Anything goes when you're playing with Lego as a kid, and now that creativity is making its way into the real world as the toy-maker mashes up Star Wars with Marvel for the first time.
Called 'Hope Assembles,' Lego revealed the crossover at New York Comic Con 2026 as a first-of-its-kind project... but fans will be the ones designing these sets. It's all part of the 'Ideas' initiative, where the community submits designs that will be voted on by the community and Lego itself. The most popular sets will then be immortalized as real, actual kits you can buy.
This challenge is split across three categories: vehicles, characters, or scenes. That means you could theoretically have Darth Vader snapping Thanos out of existence with the Infinity Guantlet, or Doctor Doom sitting on the Emperor's Throne in the Death Star while being served by StormDoomtroopers. So long as you stick to the guidelines (basically, keep it family friendly), you can submit any wild concept you have to the Lego Hope Assembles page. I guess it's time to start trawling the Lego store's Marvel and Star Wars ranges for inspiration.
Voting on submissions begins as of December 8 2026, and the winners will be announced next year.
Actor, director, and Marvel comics writer Kevin Smith made the announcement at this year's New York Comic Con, noting that "working on the upcoming Star Wars/Marvel: Hope Assembles comic series has been incredibly exciting, and this LEGO Ideas challenge reflects the same spirit of creativity inspired by these two iconic universes.
