Lego’s Upcoming X-Mansion Is Its Largest X-Men Kit Yet

Estimated read time 4 min read


Between a hit animated series and Wolverine tearing up the box office in the Deadpool threequel, it has been a great time to be an X-Men fan. Things are getting even better, as Lego has revealed an official X-Mansion set that brings the the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning to life. Members of the free Lego Insiders rewards program can get their hands on this set first when it goes on sale on November 1 for $330, and it’ll be available to everyone else starting November 4.

X-Men: The X-Mansion Lego Set (3,093 Pieces)

As you’d imagine, this is a large Lego set with 3,093 pieces. Based on the X-Mansion seen in X-Men ’97, it has a fully modular that allows you to take the mansion apart quicker than a rampaging Juggernaut, and it comes with the following 10 minifigures, who are all equipped with accessories and signature vehicles:

  • Wolverine
  • Professor X
  • Storm
  • Cyclops
  • Rogue
  • Iceman
  • Gambit
  • Bishop
  • Magneto
  • Jean Grey

Each room in the mansion is also loaded with details–and at least one meme-tastic Easter egg–and you’ll be able to build Wolverine’s room, classrooms, a library, the Cerebro control chamber, the Danger Room, and a lobby. The other cool thing about this set is that it comes with parts to build a Sentinel, one of the infamous mutant-hunting robots that the X-Men regularly tangle with. Just like its animated counterpart, this android towers over the X-Men and it features an impressive amount of articulation.

The X-Mansion is designed to be a showcase piece in a collection, and if you’re looking for a few more options, Lego has quite a few Marvel-themed sets to check out, including several other X-Men sets. You can get a 327-piece buildable Wolverine action figure for $24 (was $33) from Amazon. The figure is based off of Wolverine’s appearance in X-Men ’97. There’s also a buildable X-Jet from the series, but it’s quite expensive at $85 and only 359 pieces. Arguably the coolest X-Men Lego set available today is Wolverine’s Adamantium Claws, a 596-piece kit available exclusively at the Lego Store and Target. Wolverine’s Adamantium Claws will be retired soon, so snag it while you can.

Lego X-Men Sets

Outside of X-Men, there are numerous other large-scale Lego Marvel sets, like the massive Daily Bugle and Avengers Tower sets, but the awe-inspiring Hulkbuster is on sale right now for $385 (was $550) at the Lego Store. This is an attention-grabbing piece, as it has over 4,000 pieces that can be used to build a Hulk-clobbering suit of Iron Man armor, light-up Arc Reactors, and even a cockpit to put Lego’s articulated Iron Man action figure (381 pieces) into.

For something more affordable, some of the nice Marvel options here include a replica of Iron Man’s Nano Gauntlet from Avengers: Endgame, a splash-page diorama of the Avengers assembling as they take down HYDRA’s forces, and Guardians of the Galaxy fans can take a spin around the galaxy in the crew’s signature spaceship, the Milano.
