LEGO X-Files set: new details and possible release date

A long-awaited LEGO set based on the popular sci-fi series X-Files appears to be getting an announcement soon, as information about a possible release date has leaked. This would reportedly be the very first LEGO creation based on X-Files, making the news especially exciting for collectors and fans of the series.

Set details

According to the rumors, the LEGO X-Files set includes 1,478 pieces and could cost around $200 at launch. That price point is significantly lower than other recent LEGO sets such as Minas Tirith from Lord of the Rings or the Pokémon sets, both of which sit around $650. That makes the X-Files set more accessible to a wider range of collectors.

The set depicts Mulder and Scully’s office, complete with a small "I Want to Believe" poster on the wall. A standout feature of the set is a UFO hovering above the duo, with a gray alien minifigure in a wooded setting. This mix of iconic imagery and themes from the series is expected to appeal strongly to X-Files fans.

Rumored extras

The leaks also suggest the set may include a "Gift With Purchase," although details about that remain unknown. LEGO’s official announcement could provide more clarity on these extras and the associated release date.

Timing with the reboot

If the rumors are true, the X-Files set is arriving at a strategic time. Ryan Coogler’s upcoming reboot of the series is expected on Hulu next year, which could boost hype around the franchise. That may further increase interest in the LEGO set, especially among fans eager for a new take on the cult classic.

Even though this information is exciting, it’s important to note that leaks do not always reflect accurate details. Collectors and X-Files fans will have to wait for LEGO’s official confirmation for the most current and reliable information about this set.
