Yesterday, the LEGO Group revealed two new festive sets, designed to bring seasonal joy to builders of all ages. The #10361 LEGO Icons Holiday Express Train and the #41843 LEGO Family Christmas Tree Decoration offer joyful building experiences for adult fans and families looking to create unforgettable holiday moments.
The LEGO Icons Holiday Express Train is a 956-piece set that invites adult fans to climb aboard a festive brick-built journey. There are four car elements to the train, including a steam locomotive with a bobbing smokestack, and a bell-ringing polar bear. A platform with a bench and a lamppost adds extra charm, alongside miniature toy builds including a first-ever 3D-printed LEGO piece.
This set makes a stunning centerpiece to a seasonal display, with a 16-piece circular track that can be set up on a tablescape or around a holiday tree. Fans can even motorize the locomotive using the LEGO Powered Up kit (sold separately, available at LEGO.com/HolidayTrain). With two sets of printed instructions included, this build can be enjoyed as a shared, fun, festive experience.
Also revealing today is the LEGO Family Christmas Tree Decoration, a 3171-piece set that invites families and builders aged 9+ to create a spectacular Christmas tree home decor piece, filled with imaginative details. The set features panels that open to reveal four rooms inside, where elves and Santa Claus are preparing for the holidays. Included are also a sleigh, reindeer, plushies, Mrs. Claus, and five industrious elves, all ready to bring the season to life. This is also the first time a LEGO set includes a brick-built Cataclaws – the hero of the LEGO Group’s recent holiday campaigns.
Functional features include working knobs that bring the base train and kitchen clock to life, and a modular design that easily separates into sections for convenient post-holiday storage. Light and sound bricks are included to bring the tree to life. This set can be built as a shared activity, with the option to build together with up to six friends and family on the LEGO Builder app.
