More LEGO Ninjago 15th Anniversary News & Events!

As LEGO Ninjago marks its 15th anniversary, the LEGO Group is thrilled to tease and unveil a year of epic celebrations, special edition LEGO sets, new stories to enjoy, unexpected collaborations, including new partnerships, new digital adventures in Fortnite, and in-person events that will unite fans old and new in the spirit of the ninja lore.

When LEGO Ninjago debuted in January 2011, it went beyond a typical product launch. After 18 months of research, it transformed a simple ninja concept into a dynamic universe rich with powerful characters, immersive storytelling, and innovative playsets. The pilot season of the LEGO Ninjago series in 2011 captivated audiences, prompting the team to expand the series further. The journey continued with the launch of The Ninjago Movie in 2017 and entered a new era in 2023 with merged realms and source dragons.

The plan was for Ninjago to run for a few years, but 15 years later, the homegrown entertainment IP is still going strong and has a major fanbase across age groups. In fact, Ninjago has one of the largest fandoms in the LEGO brand. The stories about teamwork, mastering, development, and unlocking true potential have been consistent throughout the years in the TV series and products, and in 2026, the adventure will reach new heights.

Nigel Kong, Head of Product at the LEGO Group said: “As we celebrate 15 years of LEGO Ninjago, we’re incredibly proud of how this universe has developed and inspired creativity, resilience, and adventure for fans around the world. We are also endlessly thankful for our fan community, who continues to engage with the Ninjago universe. This anniversary is not just a celebration for us, it’s for our fan community – whether a lifelong or new fan, now is the time to Go Full Ninja! 2026 marks the beginning of an exciting new era for the franchise.”

The First Homegrown IP Featured in LEGO Fortnite

Ninjago entered the LEGO Fortnite world for the very first time last month, inviting players to experience what it means to Master their True Potential in the digital world. The launch introduced a major content update for LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, including a brand-new LEGO Ninjago Island for fans to explore. It also transformed iconic Ninjago characters into life-size battle-ready forms within the popular Fortnite Battle Royale, complemented by Ninjago-themed Emotes in the Fortnite Shop. This is just the start of bringing fans of both Ninjago and Fortnite together, as the story continues in a second Ninjago update in 2026!

LEGO Ninjago Family Board Game Coming

To further celebrate the anniversary, the LEGO Group and Asmodee are launching a new cooperative family board game called Ninjago Destiny’s Bounty Adventures. This collaboration offers fans and families a new way to connect and enjoy the Ninjago universe together. The game is designed to bring friends and families together, letting players team up as ninjas to defend the iconic ship Destiny’s Bounty from a host of villains. The game will be available globally from July 30th, 2026.

Yesterday, the LEGO Group and The Pokémon Company International unveiled the first-ever collection of highly anticipated LEGO Pokémon sets. Based on some of the most iconic Pokémon from the brand’s 30-year history, the first LEGO Pokémon sets allow fans to build and display their favorite Pokémon in LEGO brick form when they launch on 27 February 2026. And two of the sets are already available for pre-order! Details below.

This exciting collaboration brings together two beloved worlds, inviting fans everywhere to continue their Pokémon Trainer journey, brick by brick. The launch of the first three sets sees five fan-favorite Pokémon – Pikachu, Evee, Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise – recreated in LEGO brick form, giving builders the opportunity to bring their adventures to life, one brick at a time.

A set truly worthy of one of the most recognizable Pokémon – the #72152 LEGO Pokémon Pikachu and Poké Ball. The set lets fans recreate one of the most iconic scenes from the franchise: Pikachu jumping out of the Poké Ball, ready for battle. The brick-built Pikachu showcases this beloved Pokémon in a dynamic pose, leaping out from a Poké Ball. This 2,050-piece set features a black lightning rod-shaped base, with lightning energy emitting from the Poké Ball as Pikachu exits, ready for action. Key Easter eggs include a “25” displayed on the base, signifying Pikachu’s Pokédex number. Celebrating the iconic Electric-type Pokémon, fans will be able to pose the build in a dynamic battle stance, launching from the opened Poké Ball, as well as in a seated pose, with a closed Poké Ball. Measures over 13.5 in. (35 cm) tall, 10.5 in. (26 cm) wide, and 15.5 in. (39 cm) deep. Price: 199,99€ / 199,99$ / 179,99£. Pre-order at the LEGO Pokémon section of the Online LEGO Shop.

The truly epic #72153 LEGO Pokémon Venusaur, Charizard, and Blastoise set brings three of the most celebrated Pokémon to fans in one of the LEGO Group’s largest ever display sets. Made up of over 6,838 pieces, the set features three Kanto first partner Pokémon evolutions, for the first time, in LEGO brick form. Each of the three figures faithfully captures the original designs with remarkable authenticity and with their own unique articulation. These Pokémon can be displayed individually or together on the action base, which hides Easter-eggs for fans to discover as they build. The base features design details inspired by each of the featured Pokémon’s biomes, adding further depth to the display. Measures over 20 in. (50 cm) high, 21 in. (54 cm) wide, and 14 in. (36 cm) long. Price: 649,99€ / 649,99$ / 579,99£. Available starting on February 27th at the LEGO Pokémon section of the Online LEGO Shop.

Celebrate Eevee’s irresistible charm with the #72151 LEGO Pokémon Eevee, a 587-piece set that brings the cherished Pokémon to life in dynamic detail. Eevee’s expressive face, movable tail, head, and limbs allow builders to pose the fan-favorite, either at rest or ready to jump into action. With the Build Together app, this set presents fans with the ability to build together with friends and family. Measures over 7.5 in. (19 cm) tall, 6 in. (15 cm) wide, and 8.5 in. (21 cm) deep. Price: 59,99€ / 59,99$ / 54,99£. Pre-order at the LEGO Pokémon section of the Online LEGO Shop.

Julia Goldin, Chief Product & Marketing Officer of the LEGO Group, said: “Bringing the world of Pokémon to life in LEGO bricks is both an exciting opportunity and a great responsibility. We’ve worked to combine our worlds in a way that truly celebrates the creativity, adventure, and wonder that Pokémon represents. This partnership opens up a whole new range of possibilities for Trainers and builders alike, and we can’t wait for fans to experience these new LEGO Pokémon sets.”

“As a lifelong Pokémon fan, it’s been an incredible honor to help bring these Pokémon to life in LEGO brick form for the first time,” said Siddharth Muthyala, Design Director on LEGO Pokémon. “Pokémon has inspired generations of fans around the world, so our team approached the design of these sets with immense care and passion, ensuring every detail and pose truly celebrate what makes these characters so beloved. I hope fans will love building them as much as we did designing them.”

Gaku Susai, Chief Product and Experience Officer at The Pokémon Company International, adds: “Pokémon has always inspired discovery and connection, and partnering with the LEGO Group brings those qualities together with creativity and imagination into a new form. By combining Pokémon’s sense of adventure with the thoughtful design and attention to detail of the LEGO Group, we’re giving fans the chance to build, play, and tell their own stories in ways they’ve never experienced before – something we’re thrilled to see come to life.”

To celebrate the release of the new sets, between now and February 27th, LEGO Pokémon fans will be able to look for hidden LEGO Pokémon clues across digital channels. They will be challenged to find clues hidden throughout LEGO digital content and Pokémon digital content, to unlock exciting rewards and the chance to win The Grand Prize: experiencing PokémonXP and the 2026 Pokémon World Championships in San Francisco, including access to Championship Sunday at the Chase Center, as well as all three new LEGO Pokémon sets.
