This Magical “Wicked” LEGO Set Doubles as Decor — And It’s Flying Off Shelves
We’re still a little over a month away from the opening night of the Wicked movie, but the hype surrounding it is already high — which makes sense, considering that it’s based on one of Broadway’s longest-running shows. As fans eagerly await the Ariana Grande- and Cynthia Erivo-led adaptation, the Wicked team has been rolling out some magical brand collabs to shop in the meantime. Stanley has released Glinda-pink and Elphaba-green tumblers that are sure to be “popular,” and BÉIS launched a Wicked luggage collection. Voluspa even released some bewitching candles.
As exciting as those are, one partnership that has caught my — and hundreds of shoppers’ — attention is the one between Wicked and LEGO. We here at AT love an opportunity to be crafty, and a LEGO set is an out-of-the-box way to create some decor for your space. If you’re a Wicked fan and share the same mindset, you can score an Emerald City set, a model of Glinda and Elphaba’s dorm, and more for under $100 each. They’re already flying off shelves fast, so scroll for the details!

What Is LEGO’s ‘Wicked’ Collection?
With the movie coming out on November 22, now is the perfect time to start building your Wicked LEGO collection so you can have it on display just in time for the film’s release. The Emerald City one, of course, is just as showstopping as I imagine that it’ll be on-screen. The set includes a three-story tower complete with shops, the Wizard’s head, and other character figurines. The main duo is among them, as well as Michelle Yeoh’s Madame Morrible and Jonathan Bailey’s Fiyero. This 945-piece set also includes magical pieces like the Grimmerie spell book, the candy apple stand, and the Wizard’s model air balloon.
If you want to go for the more understated, decorative option of the bunch, you can pick up the charming replica of Glinda and Elphaba’s dorm room at Oz’s Shiz University, which features a number of small details straight out of the movie. The figurines of the lead characters are outfitted in pajamas, but they also come with two daytime outfits. What’s more, once you assemble all 740 pieces, the model closes to become a travel case, with Glinda’s flower and Elphaba’s green bottle resting on top.

If you want to get your Wicked fix in a smaller way, the top-selling item in the collection is a display of the main characters, which can be accessorized and posed in different ways. Then — last but not least — comes the most affordable set, which depicts Glinda, Elphaba, and Nessarose’s first meeting at Shiz University. Its $30 price makes it an especially great steal (and gift). Hundreds have already purchased each option in the last month alone, and that number’s likely to only increase once the movie comes out. Don’t wait to grab your favorite before the holidays!
