Overview
- LEGO formally unveiled the set on Nov. 3, 2026, listing product number 21375 with 5,363 pieces, a 27.5‑inch height when fitted with the Heat Ray, and a U.S. price of $449.99.
- The build began as a LEGO Ideas submission by Matthew Esposito (MattE720) and was refined by LEGO designers, who increased scale, changed the pose to a skyward heat‑ray stance, and brightened the dorsal spines to blue.
- The official model is licensed to Legendary’s MonsterVerse rather than Toho and is marketed for adult collectors with posable shoulders, elbows, wrists, fingers, textured scales, and an interchangeable Heat Ray element.
- Leaked in‑store images appeared before the reveal and helped shape early impressions, while fan reaction has been mixed because the final design differs in pose, proportions, color and size from Esposito’s original.
- The set is LEGO Ideas’ largest release to date and will launch on Nov. 27 with a limited gift‑with‑purchase (a 359‑piece Godzilla Logo and Footprint set) available Nov. 27–30 while supplies last.
