After taking a little longer than normal in the review process, it was announced in September last year that Pixar’s Luxo Jr. lamp mascot would become a future LEGO® Ideas set. Today, the set has been officially revealed. The set includes Luxo Jr and the colourful ball it plays with during the animated short film from Pixar. It’s since become part of the animation studio’s opening logo. The set will hop into stores on June 1st.

The clever, playful design was a crowd favourite among the LEGO Ideas community, making it a popular choice.

I spent a lot of time looking at photos of Luxo Jr. to make my model as screen-accurate and recognisable as possible.”
