It's time to return to the Upside Down, because the Duffer Brothers have revealed a brand-new Lego Stranger Things set – only this time we're going to Vecna's Lair.

The new kit is based on the Creel House, AKA Henry Creel/001/Vecna's base of operations. However, the model isn't just a recreation of the Hawkins location; a secret mechanism can be activated that "splits the exterior to reveal the interdimensional horror lurking beneath." This makes the new Lego Stranger Things set the first ever transforming Lego house. You'll be able to pre-order it on New Year's Day 2026 via the Lego store, and we'll be able to find out then if it's worthy of joining the best Lego sets hall of fame.

This premium display kit will be available as soon as the (grandfather) clocks strike midnight to ring in New Year. At least, it will be if you're a Lego Insider (Lego's free loyalty scheme, which just requires you to sign in to the site for early access and to build up points). More specifically, Insiders can pre-order the kit from January 1, 2026, while everyone else can grab the set on January 4.

UK price: £249.99 at Lego

The model itself is a 2,500-piece monster with a small army of 13 minifigures that include the show's kids, teens, and Vecna. The WSQK van and Steve's car are also included, alongside Will's bike (because of course).

The Creel House is the second Lego Stranger Things set, though you'd be excused for not remembering the first one; it came out quite a while ago and was based on season 1, with the Byers home that could be flipped literally upside down to show its darker half. While I don't think this one is quite as attention-grabbing (the previous version really was a chef's kiss of a set), it's still absolutely rammed with fan service. Besides minifigures for Eleven, Mike, Will, Dustin, Lucas, Max, Steve, Nancy, Robin, Jonathan, Holly, Mr. Whatsit, and Vecna himself, there are seven rooms contained inside with various references. Look closely enough and you'll find Vecan's drawing of the Mind Flayer, the haunted hallway upstairs, that eerie grandfather clock, and more.

That's not the best bit, though. No, the Creel House's party trick is altogether more unexpected – it actually splits apart to mimic Vecna's Mind Lair. There's apparently some kind of secret mechanism that can be used to transform the house, and you can then slot all the pieces back together again in one fluid motion. This is the first transforming house Lego's ever made, so it's a cool party trick.

Apparently there's going to be a short Lego minifilm that turns Ross and Matt Duffer into minifigures going out on Lego's social channels this December 30 to celebrate the occasion. The pair notes that they "grew up obsessed with the LEGO brand, so seeing Stranger Things rebuilt in bricks is honestly surreal. With the show heading into its final chapter - and hitting the 10-year mark - bringing the Creel House to life this way feels like the perfect celebration of the world and the fans who made all of this possible."

The Creel House isn't the only Stranger Things kit launching soon, though. A new BrickHeadz set is coming out at the same time (January 1, 2026) featuring Eleven, Max, Holly, and a Demogorgon that can be pre-ordered now from the Lego store.

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.
