Build Your Very Own Game Boy with LEGO's Newest Nintendo Set

Build a piece of gaming history with LEGO as they unveiled their new Game Boy set that features cartridges and so much more

Get ready to travel back in time, gamers, as LEGO has just revealed the ultimate retro flex: a buildable Game Boy! That is right, this nostalgic stunner clocks in at 421 pieces and recreates the iconic handheld almost 1:1 in size. It's got everything you would expect with a clickable D-pad, A & B buttons, +Control Pad, and a Start & Select. The fun does not end there, as LEGO even included swappable lenticular screens, allowing fans to display this set with a start-up menu or game screen. Even two buildable Game Paks are included with The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and Super Mario Land, which can both slide right into the back of the Game Boy.

This set will pair perfectly with any of LEGO's other impressive Nintendo sets, like the Legend of Zelda Tree, Mario Kart, or the interactive Super Mario World featuring Mario and Yoshi. The whole set will measure 5.5" tall, 3.5" wide, and 1" deep, and does not have lights nd sounds, but it's a fully brick-built replica of the legendary Nintendo game system. Pre-orders to rebuild some nostalgia are not live just yet, but the set is expected to arrive on October 1, 2025, for $59.99.
