Despicable Me 4 is only a few months a way, and LEGO is building up to a new collection of building sets featuring kids favorite characters (especially the Minions!). On April Fool’s Day, LEGO announced the launch of a giant Minion building set for adults. Of course, this was a joke, but these new sets designed for preteens aren’t!

The LEGO Despicable Me 4 Minions and Gru’s Family Mansion ($99.99), designed for kids ages 8 and up, comes with 868 pieces and is complete with a sloping roof and a brightly colored tree house. The 839-piece LEGO Brick-Built Gru ($54.99), designed for kids ages 9 and up, features Gru surrounded by dancing Minions, including Mel, who is playing the ukulele, and Kevin, who is armed with his fart gun. 

Both sets will be available starting May 1 at LEGO stores, lego.com, and other retailers. Two more yet-to-be-revealed sets are also a part of LEGO’s Despicable Me 4 collection. Parents, get ready for the resurgence of everyone’s Minion phases.


LEGO MINIONS AND GRU’S FAMILY MANSION

This 868-piece set includes the mansion, a tree house, six minifigures, three buildable Minion toy figures, and Despicable Me 4 movie-inspired accessories.
