Bringing the iconic ogre and his fairy-tale world to life in bricks, these new sets give fans a brand-new way to celebrate one of animation\u2019s most iconic characters.<\/p>\n<p>Hitting the big screen 25 years ago, Shrek turned the fairy-tale world upside down (and we\u2019ve been quoting it ever since!) Now, fans can return to the swamp in an entirely new way. With the launch of the new LEGO Shrek sets, audiences can recreate favourite scenes and relive iconic moments from the beloved franchise. Combining cinematic nostalgia with hands-on creativity, LEGO Shrek invites builders to bring the magic of the swamp to life in brick form.<\/p>\n<p>Adult fans can reminisce on 25-years of Shrek with the detailed LEGO Shrek, Donkey &amp; Puss in Boots posable display set for ages 18+. Featuring brick-built Shrek and Donkey, plus a Puss in Boots minifigure, this set is on a swamp base with the classic \u201cBeware Ogre!\u201d sign. <\/p>\n<p>Other nods to the film include sunflowers, an onion and a blue flower with red thorns. Discover hidden Easter eggs tucked inside Shrek\u2019s gut for an extra layer of fun.<\/p>\n<p>For younger builders, the LEGO BrickHeadz\u2122 Shrek set invites kids aged 10+ to step into the world of Far Far Away and build three beloved characters: Shrek, Donkey and Gingy. LEGO BrickHeadz are stylised, brick-built collectible figures, known for their distinctive square-headed design. Packed with playful details from Shrek\u2019s signature ears and Donkey\u2019s cheeky smile to Gingy\u2019s icing buttons, the set also features a \u201cBeware Ogre\u201d sign inspired by Shrek\u2019s iconic swamp.<\/p>\n<p>Raquel Ojeda, Creative Lead from the LEGO Group said, \u201cShrek has always celebrated imagination, friendship, and a little bit of mischief, which are values that translate perfectly into LEGO play. We\u2019re ogre the moon to partner with this beloved universe and see how fans build their own fairy-tale adventures. This is just the beginning, so keep your eyes peeled for lots more LEGO Shrek magic!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPartnering with the LEGO Group to introduce Shrek in LEGO brick form marks an exciting moment as we celebrate the franchise\u2019s 25th anniversary,\u201d said Rafa Macias, Global Commercial Officer, Consumer Products, Games &amp; Digitalat Universal Products &amp; Experiences. \u201cThese sets bring Far Far Away to life with innovative design, fun Easter eggs for fans to discover, and storytelling\u2013 honoring the legacy that has made Shrek a cultural icon and inviting fans back to the swamp where it all began.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the Shrek franchise, known for its layered storytelling, iconic soundtrack and endlessly quotable moments, continues to inspire generations and deliver lasting nostalgia.
