New Lego sets in November 2025 surprised me, but not for the reason you might think

November might be a first when it comes to new Lego sets, and not for the reason you'd expect. To be precise, there are only two of them.

I'm a huge fan of the ones we are getting this month, however. Both are very handsome display pieces, but the Ideas kit - which is inspired by '80s classic The Goonies - charges straight onto my wishlist because it includes working traps spread across its labyrinthine setup. It brings back that childlike wonder of uncovering hidden mysteries, which is exactly what a Goonies set should do.

Even though the price tag made me wince (it's up there as one of the more expensive Lego sets), there's no denying how pretty this display piece is. Besides being a colorful underwater utopia you can enjoy on your shelf or desk without the hassle of a real aquarium, it's more interactive than you'd expect. There are various knobs and cranks that can be turned to move the occupants, from making the 'brickfish' swim to having a crab pop out of hiding. At 20.5in (52cm) wide, this tank is certainly big enough to hide a few secrets.

Jump on the offer sharpish and you'll be able to add the Fish Tank Filter & Fish Food gift-with-purchase to your aquarium. Just be quick, because it's only available with the set while stock lasts and until November 19.

Hey you guyyyys! This enormous model based on The Goonies is November's standout kit, if you ask me. Much like last month's Death Star, it's a series of vignettes taken from throughout the movie rather than being a to-scale replica of any one location. However, this is all contained within the climatic finale's setting (One-Eyed Willy's pirate ship) so that you get the best of both worlds.

As I said when the kit was first revealed in a video starring Ke Huy Quan, I adore how the new Lego set features working 'traps' and gizmos that bring the film to life. Hitting the skeleton organ keys will break the floor just like in the movie, there's a secret fireplace entrance to the caverns, the pipes can 'leak' on the villainous Fratellis, and more. That's the kind of magical interactivity that made me fall in love with Lego in the first place, so I'm pleased to see it here.

So long as you're an Insider (e.g. you've signed up for free on the Lego Store) and you move quickly, you can also get The Walshes' Attic gift-with-purchase. This recreates another iconic moment where the adventure begins, and is a cool addition to the full Goonies kit.

I've been writing about games in one form or another since 2012, but these days you'll find me managing GamesRadar+'s tabletop gaming and toy coverage (I spend my time here handling everything from board game reviews to the latest Lego news). I've also been obsessed with Warhammer since the 1990s, and love nothing more than running tabletop RPGs like D&D as a Dungeon Master.
