New Easter sets revealed!

Two new Easter Seasonal sets for 2025 have been revealed on LEGO.com: 40808 Easter Bunny and Chick Egg Hunt, and 40816 Decorative Easter Egg.
Both will be available on the 1st of February, and seem like they would make fun gifts for a basket, or perhaps as a pre-holiday treat.

The egg looks like it has a human face with lips and eyes!
Yikes that easter egg tree looks like a horror scene.
Nothing says Easter like the white tree of Gondor!
I like the chick and bunny, but that tree is indeed bizarre....
As for the egg.....DOTS has returned from it's grave!
Egg is terrible, but the rabbit and chicken are cute.
Disappointing sets that are basically remakes or previous Easter sets 40709 40371
Omg! Best Halloween sets ever!
The Decorative Egg should come with a Squidward Minifigure. IYKYK.
Remember when Easter set used to be good?, until last year Easter sets were some nice set, but this and last years sets look terrible.
2015s 40121 and 2017's 40237 were really good sets that included figures and nice scenes. Not that I hate builds because 2021's 40463 was a really good set, well made and honestly cute, same for the following years 40523 and 40639
Then last year we go these terrible animal builds, don't even look cute (imo) with some questionable builds to go asides them.
Then this Easter Egg - feels very overpriced £18 feels too much, yes 386 pieces but mostly DOTS, the 2020 40371 is a much better dots egg that can be had for about £10 on eBay.
Obviously my opinion, but very disappointed in these.
My bad... I wasn't properly paying attention and wrote a comment about how I like that the chick is clearly planning to capture that bunny with his net, and as a GWP I wouldn't be unhappy with it, if I felt the need to buy Lego at Easter, but neither set made me feel like I *had* to get them.
Then I saw my mistake and I definitely don't feel the need to get them. I hope they make someone happy but they're not for me.

'I saw a white tree..... it was dead!'
I see 40808 as a future birch tree - put 5 to 6 little round black plates in there: voilà!
Just about OK if they'd been GWPs, but not worth making a point of buying!
I like the tree, but it's the Chick that clenches it for me
40808 reminds me of a similar item in the Animal Crossing: New Horizons game.

The Easter Bunny and Chick Egg Hunt works for me and at a reasonable cost. The $20 holy hand bland egg from Antioch? To it, I say Ni.
Ooh, look, more Opera Viking horns for me to collect…

I believe you mean it should come with the Teen Titans Go! Easter Bunny.

Somehow, DOTS returned.
I have some lizard brain memory of white/birch Easter trees that were popular in the ‘70s/‘80s. I am oddly drawn to this new iteration.
Being over 3 months away from Easter I can see the quite attractive £10.99 40808 Easter Bunny and Chick Egg Hunt re-emerging as a GWP in April, even though it's set for sale on 1st Feb.

Well, if you're a Christian, Easter *is* about celebrating someone coming out his grave...
Not for me. Odd decoration on egg. Somewhat glad these don't connect with me, my budget needs a break!
eggs in a tree.?
too soon to say april fools
lol

When there's no more room in hell, the Easter Bunny will walk the earth?
Now it suddenly all makes snse......We smelten de Paashaas!
You can now add 30690 to the list as well. ;)
So Easter has moved to February has it?
Timing aside, I would try and go for a Fabergé themed egg rather than one which belongs in horror films.

To me they look like inflatable animals that someone overdid, stopping just a second before they burst. Especially the chicken. Just look at those eyes. One more push on the pump, and kaboom.
Kind of like the end of this scene:

Truly weird looking sets all around imho.
These sets are terrifying!
If Lego stopped doing "Easter" as a season and tried "Springtime" instead, maybe we'd get something more original that chicks, eggs & bunnies.
These look like they're running out of ideas.

You're right, but you can't sell sets based on seasons alone. It has to be something commercial like Easter, Valentine's, Halloween or Christmas with it's corresponding cliches.
This looks terrible.
Bright colours don't automatically equal a good easter set.
The tree is kinda neat & could be taken in a variety of interesting directions. The chick and bunny are inspired lunacy (esp the box pic with the chick in the wagon gunning for the bunny) and I am all in favour of this type of absurdity in Lego.

Human? It looks very birdy to me.

In this image, the loose egg on the right is a rabbit (sans ears). The big egg on the box is a bird. And the little egg on the box is a humanoid of some sort. Probably a robot.
Phew... Looks like the ole credit card can settle back into the wallet for a while.
I dont understand why they stopped using propper egg/baloon shaped piece they had.
