The 845-piece set is great for any Wicked fan and goes with the other LEGO Wicked sets. Those are geared toward a younger audience (8+), but these bookends are intended for 18+ and area a great to add some flair to your bookshelf. The two ends are designed around both Glenda and Elphaba's respective looks and personalities; Glenda's side pink and vibrant with flowers and a butterfly, while Elphaba's half is darker with her signature green and a witchy potion to tie it all together.
It comes with six minifigures, each a faithful recreation of their movie counterpart: Glenda, Elphaba, Madame Morrible, Fiyero, and Pfannee.
In our review of Wicked, IGN's Alyssa Mora gave it nine, saying it's "[a] dazzling adaptation of one of Broadway’s most beloved musicals brings Stephen Schwartz’s Wicked Witch of the West origin story to brilliant life on screen with clear care for its source material." The movie's sequel Wicked: For Good comes out November 21, so expect more LEGO Wicked goodness in the near future.
More new LEGO sets available now
The new LEGO Wicked set isn't coming out until September, but there are plenty of other new sets that are available right now. LEGO released a bunch of sets in July this year, which we've featured above. It's also worth mentioning that Amazon is also having a Prime Day sale on LEGO sets already, so you should be able to find quite a few discounts on older sets online this week.
