Minecraft Lego Sets Featuring Creepers, Endermen, And A Diamond-Armored Steve Now Available
When Lego first approved Minecraft sets via its Lego Ideas program (neé Cuusoo), it felt just a little redundant. Since then, the building blocks based on the Mojang’s blocky building game have grown more popular and more varied.
Earlier this fall, Lego released a number of new, official sets from the Minecraft universe. Ranging in price from $19.99 to $109.99 (common prices for kits, but high enough that Vocativ recently wrote a fascinating story about Lego heists), you can build farms, caves, and a replication of your first night in a new Minecraft game. These are full-size blocks as opposed to the earlier micro-sized sets.
The most expensive of the sets recreate a fight against an Ender Dragon (complete with three Endermen) and an enormous mine. Beware the creeper, zombie, skeleton, and spider as you dig for precious materials.
You can check out the different options on Lego’s website. While the company lists these as available only online, we’re starting to see them at retail locations. Happy hunting and building.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
