Help Make This Massive ‘Godzilla’ LEGO Set a Reality!
There are so many cool projects on LEGO Ideas at any given time, LEGO’s super cool portal that allows fans of the product to literally create their very own LEGO sets.
Essentially, the platform encourages you to upload images and details of your creations, which will be forwarded to the desks of the folks in charge IF you can get 10,000 upvotes on your idea. From there, well, it’s possible that your creation *could* become reality.
We shared an “Addams Family” set that popped up on LEGO Ideas recently, and this next one we want to bring to your attention is dedicated to the King of all Kaiju!
User BRICK_101 currently has 572 supporters on his proposed Godzilla set…
“This model contains approximately 850 LEGO pieces, stands 9 inches (23 cm) tall, and measures 17 inches (44 cm) from head to tail. Godzilla has had many different designs over the years, but we based ours on the original 1954 movie. The arms, legs, jaw, and tail are hinged to allow the model to be posed in a variety of positions. In addition to Godzilla, the set also includes a small microscale train for Godzilla to stomp on or chomp on and a flame piece to represent Godzilla’s atomic breath.”

Michael Myers, Oogie Boogie, Krampus, and Universal Monsters Join Mattel’s Upcoming Monster High Lineup
In skelebration of this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Mattel has unveiled brand-new Monster High Skullector drops set to arrive over the coming months that include Halloween II‘s Michael Myers, The Nightmare Before Christmas‘s Oogie Boogie, Krampus, and more.
The new arrivals begin today, with a limited drop of Universal Monsters Skullector dolls—featuring Frankenstein’s Monster, The Mummy, and Dracula—available exclusively on Walmart.com for $44 each. If you miss it, don’t worry: the trio arrives in retail stores and rolls out internationally on September 1.
With the Halloween season just around the corner, Monster High is slashing into the spirit with a new Michael Myers doll inspired by Halloween II. Michael Myers’s Monster High makeover is a nod to his hospital showdown with Laurie, complete with a red glitter spattered jumpsuit and tons of spine-chilling Easter egg accessories fans of the film will find totally to die for. Look for this slay queen to launch on August 7.
All Hallows’ Eve brings a holiday treat for fans of Tim Burton and director Henry Selick’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. The burlap sack baddie of Halloween Town gets a Monster High makeover on October 30, featuring neon green fashion with black patchwork-like stitches and a whole lot of buggy details.
The holiday horrors continue with the December 3 launch of a Monster High doll inspired by 2015’s Krampus movie. A deep red velveteen jacket, extra-long chains add eerie movement, and black knee-high boots recreate Krampus’ cloven hooves. You’ll wind up on the naughty list in style with this one.
All upcoming releases are listed on the Mattel Creations website, where fans can keep track of the releases.
