LEGO Ideas Willy Wonka 2,025-Piece Set Unveiled

LEGO has unveiled a new addition to its LEGO Ideas lineup: Willy Wonka the Chocolate Factory, a 2,025-piece build that recreates iconic scenes from the 1971 film. The set, designed for adult builders, includes nine minifigures and a range of candy-inspired details, from a chocolate waterfall that can be activated by a hidden dial to the Wonkatania boat gliding along a brick-built chocolate river. Scheduled to go on sale September 18, the model carries a price of 219.99 and emphasizes display-worthy fidelity to the source material while inviting fans to re-create memorable moments in brick form.

The centerpiece of the model is the chocolate factory’s tour-ready environment: a flowing chocolate waterfall controlled by turning a dial on the back of the set, a detailed river and the Wonkatania boat. Candy plants with teacup flowers and candy cane trees dot the landscape, while the factory’s office is accessible via a secret door. The integration of these elements aims to capture the whimsy and spectacle of the film, offering both a display piece and a sculptural homage to the beloved story.

In total, the set includes nine minifigures: Willy Wonka, Charlie Bucket, Grandpa Joe,...
