It's Time for Kapp'n's Island Boat Tour with LEGO Animal Crossing 

Some New Horizons await as LEGO has debuted a brand new series of video game sets featuring the world of Animal Crossing

All aboard! A new set has been revealed for LEGO's brand new license with the hit Nintendo video game series Animal Crossing. This set is bringing some iconic villagers to life like never before and in brick form. This is not something many companies have done before, as most just focus on the workers of the island, like Tom Nook, K.K. Slider, and Isabelle. However, it is the villagers that really made these games shine, and LEGO is giving fans just that. This next set brings the fan-favorite character Kapp'n back as they take on his Island Boat Tour. Coming in at 233 pieces, Kapp'n finds the villager Marshal on his journey, who is ready to catch some fish. These island sets are completely customizable and are packed with Easter Eggs from the franchise from Bells, Fruits Trees, and even some of the signature tools. It is nice to see Animal Crossing characters like Marshal get some love from LEGO as well as Kapp'n. This Boat Tour set is priced at $29.99, he is set for a March 2024 release, and pre-orders are not live, but the set can be seen here.
