Other LEGO Sets With Pretty Brick-Built Flowers!

by Thita (admin) on January 24, 2025

The LEGO Botanical sets must be really popular because LEGO is adding more brick-built flowers to other themes as well.

A cute promotional set we got a couple of years ago was the #40588 LEGO Flowerpot, which seems to have started the trend of smaller potted plants, like the #10329 LEGO Botanical Tiny Plants in 2024, and the LEGO Botanical Four Gentlemen Series in 2024/25. We talked about these sets previously in detail (see links at the end of this post).

LEGO now also adds brick-built flowers as decorations in other sets. One of my favorites from last year is the #31156 LEGO Creator 3-in-1 Ukulele with three alternate builds, all featuring flowers. A similar set this year is the #31169 LEGO Creator 3-in-1 Typewriter with Flowers, also featuring three alternate builds.

The LEGO Chinese New Year sets are already known for their intricate details and striking colors, and some even include brick-built flowers. The #80110 LEGO Lunar New Year Display from 2023 features a beautiful moutan peony arrangement, and the #80117 LEGO Chinese New Year Good Fortune is decorated with small flower buds and berries in a beautifully printed vase.

Yet another theme that picked up on the flower trend is LEGO Disney. The #43237 LEGO Disney Isabela’s Flowerpot and the #43252 LEGO Disney Moana’s Flowerpot both feature pretty flowers in a flowerpot that opens to reveal a hidden room full of fun movie details. These sets offer a more complex building experience and fun play possibilities for older kids (the recommended age is 9+), and once play is done, they make good display pieces for a room or shelf.

The LEGO Botanical sets mostly appeal to adult builders, but I like this trend of sneaking in flowers into other themes. They add unique pieces and an interesting building experience that everyone would enjoy. And they also add a splash of color and beauty to LEGO displays.

What do you think? How do you like LEGO’s brick-built flowers? Do you have any of the LEGO Botanical sets? What other themes would you like to see incorporate brick-built flowers? Star Wars? Super Heroes? Ninjago? Technic? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below!

Grab your straw hats! The LEGO Group, Netflix, and Tomorrow Studios are coming together to chart a course into the Grand Line, bringing the epic live-action series One Piece to life for LEGO building and Straw Hat Pirate fans for the first time.

“This is a truly special collaboration. For the first time, LEGO play and the exciting world of anime meet. Building the world of One Piece, as depicted in the Netflix live-action adaptation, in LEGO brick form has been such an exciting challenge and I couldn’t be more excited for fans to experience the new adventures this One Piece collaboration will bring them for the first time,” said Lena Dixen, Senior Vice President for Core Businesses at the LEGO Group. “Throughout this project with Netflix and Tomorrow Studios, it has been an exciting, collaborative process, and I think that shows in all the grand adventures we will begin to unveil soon.”

“It has been an honor to bring the magnificent world of One Piece to life both on and off the screen. We are excited to collaborate with the LEGO Group, a brand synonymous with creativity and the joy of play, to mark a historic moment as we build out the treasured manga’s adventures in iconic LEGO form for the first time ever,“ said Josh Simon, Vice President of Consumer Products, Netflix. “Through every detail of the design process, we’ve worked to meticulously create a collection of playsets that will give fans new ways to live out their own epic voyages into the Grand Line one special LEGO brick at a time.”

Fans of LEGO building and One Piece can prepare to embark on an adventure through the East Blue where fans will experience iconic moments and scenes from the hit live-action adaptation in a new way, ahead of the epic return of the live-action One Piece Season 2.

One Piece follows the tale of the daring young pirate, Monkey D. Luffy, who has a dream of becoming King of the Pirates by finding the legendary One Piece treasure. On his quest, Luffy encounters other pirates, bounty hunters, and corrupt generals. Some turn out to be fierce enemies who he must overcome using his wit, cunning, and (sometimes) his elastic superpowers. On his quest, he also gains steadfast allies like Nami, Roronoa Zoro, Usopp, and Sanji, who end up becoming his friends and join his crew – The Straw Hat Pirates – and mission for the One Piece.

Based on Eiichiro Oda’s legendary and beloved manga series, the first season of One Piece sailed into Netflix’s Global Top 10 Shows where it spent eight weeks, debuted at #1 in 46 countries, and gathered 71.6M views in the first four months on Netflix. The live-action series sparked joy worldwide with a 95% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes, uniting fans of all ages in celebration of Straw Hat’s voyage of hope and boundless spirit of adventure. (If you haven’t watched the series, I included the trailer for Season 1 below).

The collaboration between the LEGO Group, Netflix, and Tomorrow Studios invites One Piece fans from around the world to follow the action and embark on their own grand adventures with multiple new LEGO sets, inspired by some of the most iconic scenes straight out of the East Blue. These sets will feature the main crew as seen in the show for the first time in LEGO minifigure form, transporting fans into the heart of the action featuring settings and scenes pulled straight from the screen. Prepare to set sail into the vast world of LEGO building adventures – each set, each brick, and every build unleashes the thrill of the open sea!

Keep your eyes peeled for the full LEGO One Piece collection reveal, including products and experiences, bound to make waves in the coming months. In the meantime, you can share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below!
