The Goonies are officially getting the LEGO treatment, and it’s a big one. LEGO Ideas 21363 The Goonies is a sprawling, detail-packed set based on the 1985 cult classic film. It features a massive build of the Inferno pirate ship tucked inside the iconic cave setting, along with a full cast of minifigures straight from the movie. There’s no unboxing here, since it’s just been announced and isn’t out quite yet, but there’s plenty to dig into already, from the build’s ambitious design to the character line-up.
Release Date: November 2025 (rumoured early November)
MSRP / Price Range: $299.99 USD / £269.99 GBP
Edition Size / Production Run: Not officially limited, but expected to be produced in smaller runs typical of LEGO Ideas sets
Manufacturer / License: LEGO / Warner Bros. via LEGO Ideas
A Look at the Build
At 2,912 pieces, this is one of the larger LEGO Ideas sets to date. The main feature is the pirate ship Inferno, not simply perched atop a stand but emerging from a full cave base that recreates scenes from the movie. There’s a shipwreck aesthetic done right, with tattered sails, a hull full of secret compartments, and booby-trapped surroundings.
Play features include a skeleton organ that triggers collapsing floors, a boulder trap, a fireplace hiding a secret tunnel and even a slide. It’s the kind of layered build LEGO does best, offering multiple rooms, features, and call backs to key Goonies moments. Think of it like a film set built in bricks, more than just a display model.
If you’re into immersive builds like this, you might want to check out the LEGO Gremlins Gizmo 21361 Ideas set too, which took a similar approach with character and setting integration.
Full Goonies Minifigure Line-up
LEGO didn’t hold back on the character selection. Included in the set are Mikey, Data, Mouth, Chunk, Andy, Stef, Brand, Sloth, Mama Fratelli, Francis, Jake and even One-Eyed Willy in skeletal form.
That’s twelve figures in total, which is well above the average for LEGO Ideas. It helps justify the price, especially if you’re someone who values minifigs as much as the build. The figures come with unique printing and moulded accessories, from Sloth’s Superman shirt to Data’s gadgets. Some likenesses aren’t perfect, and a few characters could’ve used new face prints to better capture their film counterparts, but overall, it’s a strong line-up. Chunk, in particular, is spot-on.
Pricing and Where to Buy
With a price tag hovering around $299.99 USD (about £269.99 GBP), LEGO Ideas 21363 The Goonies is firmly in premium territory. That said, it’s priced similarly to other large-scale licensed Ideas sets, and you’re getting a lot for the money in terms of both piece count and fan service.
If you’re wondering where to buy LEGO The Goonies Ideas set, the best bet will be LEGO.com and official LEGO stores when it launches. Given its nostalgic appeal and likely limited production run, it’s wise to keep an eye out for pre-order dates. It follows the pattern of other high-demand releases like the LEGO Star Wars UCS Death Star, so expect it to move quickly once it’s live.
How It Compares
This isn’t LEGO’s first foray into 80s nostalgia. Sets like the LEGO Gremlins Gizmo 21361 and the UCS Death Star show how well LEGO can walk the line between fandom and build quality. But LEGO Ideas 21363 feels more ambitious. It’s not just a car or character vignette, it’s an entire environment, layered with movie references and hidden details. It’s also the first time The Goonies has received any major LEGO attention, and fans of the film have waited a long time for this one.
It makes a bold statement both as a build and as a collectible. The size and price might not be for everyone, but for Goonies fans or those collecting iconic film sets, this is the one to watch.
Final Thoughts
LEGO Ideas The Goonies set brings a fan-favourite film to life in a way that’s both faithful and fun. Between the full cast of characters, interactive elements and a massive pirate ship build, there’s more than enough here to justify the hype. While not perfect, some minor quibbles with figure design and its large footprint, it’s easily one of the most exciting licensed sets LEGO has dropped in recent memory.
If you’re into classic movies, big builds or just want to shout “Hey you guys!” every time you walk past your shelf, LEGO Goonies 21363 is well worth a spot on your wishlist.
