LEGO Stranger Things returns with four new BrickHeadz figures!
Posted by CapnRex101,
The fifth and final season of Stranger Things will be released later this year and LEGO is returning to the Netflix series with a new BrickHeadz pack!
40801 Mike, Dustin, Lucas and Will Figures contains 542 pieces and will be released on October 1st, costing £34.99, $39.99 or €39.99. This set should be a nice companion for 40549 Demogorgon & Eleven, which was released in 2022.

I don't care much for Brickheadz but a lot of the sets have been quite good lately.
Talking about 40549 reminds me of the Eleven I wish they'd done a Brickheadz of. You know, https://brickset.com/minifigs/idea020/the-eleventh-doctor
Those are all really good and instantly recognizable. Also, I don’t recall them ever putting “figures” at the end of a Brickheadz set name before?
Stranger things have happened.
I will bite back my usual comments about Brickheadz to instead opine to the marketing & production teams at TLG:
It's INSANE that 40549 isn't for sale at the same time as this new set. People who didn't get that one at the time will look at this and wonder, "where's Eleven?", realise they can't buy that set anymore, and probably not bother with this one.
Cross-purchasing is so powerful; someone at TLG must know they've missed a trick.

My immediate thought was 'wheres eleven?'...and turns out I have the previous set but so long ago I forgot. So, I agree with you. Who's to say they don't have others up their sleeve...I hope they do...
I think they should've had Will with an accessory too like the others.
Will needs a paint brush in one hand and the other they could've done a printed tile of Will's drawing of the Mind Flayer.
"Runnin' up that hill..."
There are so few sets in this theme, it's really difficult to understand why Lego keep running with it.
LEGO, once again on top of things. Releasing a stranger things set only a mere 9 years after the show started. TLG is so far out of the cultural loop these days.
It's Will Byers not Will Figures
Just in time for the finale! Gotta get those sales where you can.
I'd prefer actual minifigure sets, but by now it is too late. This isn't one of those themes that can carry on like some others.
Still shaking my fist at Comic Con for the Barb figure I'll never get.

You might not have heard, but the fifth and final season is airing this Fall. Perfect time for more tie-in merch.
Military MOCer's must be in love with those printed camo tiles!
I’d much prefer some reasonably priced minifig scaled sets, but these look great and I’ll pick up for sure.

Especially seeing that there are ten of them!

I think some spin-off shows are in the works, so hopefully it is not too late. We still need to get Steve, Max, Robin, Nancy, Erica, Jonathan, Bob, Eddie & Brenner as minifigures!
Wait, how does bro use the binoculars?? They'll go between his eyes!

Yes, Lego's always been so consistent with scale in everything up to this point! ...oh wait.
