LEGO Teams Up With 'Wicked' To Release 4 Themed Sets This Fall
Universal recently debuted the first trailer for their upcoming feature film adaptation of the award-winning Broadway play Wicked. The movie will feature stars like Ariana Grande, Michelle Yeoh, and Jeff Goldblum.
Now, fresh on those ruby slippers comes an announcement from LEGO. This fall (October 1, to be exact) LEGO will be releasing four new sets that are themed on the new movie. This came via an announcement on their social media pages that featured a little teaser video of black LEGO background with the words “Pink Clicks Good With Green.”

Raquel Ojeda Gregorio, the sets’ design lead at LEGO group, said in a released statement that “Wicked has some of the most magical locations and characters, and recreating that with LEGO bricks is a match made in Oz. I can’t wait for fans to see these colorful sets and hope they will enjoy unlocking their imagination, creating, and telling their own Wicked-inspired stories.”
On LEGO’s website for the sets, there are hints as to what the sets will be. When you hover over the words, four small windows open. In the one at the top, there’s a greenish-looking castle. Further down, a pink pair of wings show up, as well as a black witch’s hat, on the right side of the screen. To the left, the image seems to resemble that of a city, and at the bottom right, a small set of what look to be little buildings from a bird’s-eye-view set in a circle. Scroll further down and it shows the silhouettes of two mini-figures, one outlined in green light and resembles the wicked witch, and the other in pink light resembling the good witch. Their shape suggests the design of these will resemble the LEGO Friends sets that line retail shelves.
As that October date looms closer, LEGO will most likely reveal more information and a glimpse of what the sets actually are.
