With a price tag of $59.99 USD (£54.99/€59.99), the LEGO Game Boy joins an impressive lineup of nostalgia-inspired sets that appeal to adult fans of retro games. This release coincides with other exciting sets this year, including LEGO’s debut Godzilla model and the much-awaited Wallace & Gromit set, both of which have garnered substantial support from LEGO aficionados.

Comprising 421 pieces, the LEGO Game Boy meticulously captures the essence of Nintendo’s legendary portable console. The build integrates brick versions of beloved games like Super Mario Land and The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, which can be placed into a functioning cartridge slot.

Additionally, builders can switch between three lenticular screens showcasing either the classic boot-up logo or gameplay visuals from the respective games. Every key feature, from the iconic A and B buttons to the volume dial and contrast wheel, is authentically recreated. Notably, printed tiles are employed instead of stickers, enhancing the set’s genuine appearance.

Designed with collectors in mind, this set includes a display stand. With its manageable piece count and affordable pricing, the Game Boy is set to become one of LEGO’s most accessible collaborations with Nintendo to date. You can secure your pre-order now via LEGO’s official site and selected retail partners ahead of its highly anticipated October launch.
