Mei Fluffs Up at LEGO and Their New Turning Red BrickHeadz Set 

The magic of Disney and LEGO collide as a new set of BrickHeadz sets are on the way to bring new and classic characters to brick form 

Disney and Pixar's Turning Red hit Disney+ in 2022 and told the coming-of-age story of Mei Lee. Unlike normal 13-year-olds, she transforms into a giant red panda when overwhelmed by her emotions. Set in Toronto, the film humorously explores what it is like during adolescence, along with other themes of cultural identity and the bonds between family and friends. This film surely deserves a wide theatrical release, but theaters were in short demand after the COVID scare. It did get quite the controversial release, too, as many parents had mixed feelings about Mei's rebellious actions.

No matter what people want to think, that is just part of growing up, embracing changes, and discovering who you are, even if it is as a giant red panda. Mei is now fluffing back up with LEGO and their latest Disney animal BrickHeadz releases. Coming in 121 pieces and 3" tall, Mei is back in all of her red panda glory for those adorable sets. Turning Red fans will appreciate adding this cute little red panda to their Disney collection as they blast some 4*Town. LEGO is set to release the BrickHeadz Turning Red Mei set in February 2025 for $9.99.
