LEGO’s First-Ever Godzilla Set Stomps Into Black Friday With a Colossal, Collector-Sized Price Tag
Godzilla has been stomping through toy aisles for decades, but until now the King of the Monsters has never gotten an official LEGO set. Fans have built their own brick versions for years, and the idea of an official one has been a long-running collector wish. That wait has finally ended.
The timing is no accident. November 3 is Godzilla Day, the anniversary of the original film’s 1954 debut, and the franchise is in the middle of a very busy week. ‘Godzilla Minus Zero’ has just opened in Japan, and the toy world is clearly eager to ride the momentum.
LEGO has now officially revealed the set, and the numbers are enormous. Set 21375 Godzilla is priced at $449.99, with a UK price of £349.99 and a euro price of €399.99. It contains 5,363 pieces and goes on sale on November 27, Black Friday.
The set started life as a LEGO Ideas submission, the program that turns fan-designed models into official products. It is based on the work of builder MattE720, who submitted the project in December 2023, and LEGO selected it for product development in June 2025. The design follows the MonsterVerse version of Godzilla rather than a Toho design.

The final model is considerably bigger than the fan original. Reports estimate that the submitted version used roughly 2,500 to 3,000 pieces, so the commercial set is about double that. The figure measures either 54.6 cm or 70 cm tall depending on the pose.
The photos show a textured gray body, clawed limbs and glowing blue dorsal plates. A blue atomic breath effect extends from the monster’s mouth in one pose, while another shows a more aggressive stance with the jaws open. It is clearly built as a display piece for adult collectors, with packaging listing it for ages 18 and up.
At 5,363 pieces, the set lands among LEGO’s biggest. TheGamer notes that it ranks in the top 20 largest sets available, sitting between the Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser and the Avengers Tower. That puts it in company with the brand’s most ambitious licensed models.
LEGO has made a habit of releasing a huge licensed model for Black Friday in recent years. Last year’s pick was the Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D, and Godzilla now follows that pattern. The $449.99 price will not surprise anyone who has watched premium LEGO pricing climb.
There is also a bonus for early buyers. Anyone who buys the Godzilla set before November 30 receives the 359-piece Godzilla Footprint set free as a gift with purchase. It is a limited window, and like most gifts with purchase, it is likely to disappear afterward.
The set leaked in stores on October 31, several days before the official reveal, and the first reactions were mixed. Collectors praised details such as the sculpting of the legs, while others questioned the price and some of the proportions. That kind of debate is typical for any high-profile LEGO release.
The leak also fueled speculation about the price. Early rumors had suggested a range between $400 and $499.99, so the final figure lands near the upper-middle of expectations. Some fans have joked that the cost is fitting for a creature of this size.
The timing also lines up with the franchise’s busy schedule. ‘Godzilla Minus Zero’ is arriving in theaters now, and ‘Godzilla x Kong: Supernova’ is due on March 26, 2027. A MonsterVerse-based set may seem like an odd fit with the Toho release, but it benefits from the same wave of attention.
For many fans, the appeal is simple. A giant, poseable Godzilla that can sit on a shelf and show off its atomic breath is the kind of display piece that kaiju collectors have wanted for years. It also reflects how far the character’s popularity has grown, from classic Toho films to the Legendary series and the Oscar-winning ‘Godzilla Minus One’.
Building a set this large is also an experience in itself. With more than 5,000 pieces, it promises hours of assembly, and the end result will take up serious space. Whether that is worth the price depends on how much of a Godzilla fan you are.
Either way, the arrival of an official LEGO Godzilla feels like a milestone. After years of fan builds and Ideas votes, the monster has finally made it into the brick.
