The Lego Group and Pixar have collaborated to release the Luxo Jr collectible display model which will be available from 1 June 2025. Synonymous with classic Pixar movies and heralding from 1986 when Luxo Jr first appeared in a Pixar film short, fans will be able to recreate Luxo Jr’s signature bouncing, hopping and rotating movements in bricks.
Paying tribute to the creativity of Pixar movies, the buildable display model is fully articulated and includes a buildable Pixar ball, which nostalgic fans can display with Luxo Jr standing on it as if squashing it. This was inspired by the 1986 short Pixar film, Luxo Jr. The Pixar ball also opens up to reveal hidden easter eggs inspired by popular Disney and Pixar movies including Up, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Monsters, Inc. Toy Story and Finding Nemo – a real treat for all Pixar movie-lovers.
“I’m a huge fan of all the Pixar films, which were a big part of my childhood and Luxo Jr is the mascot that perfectly sums up my love for these movies”
The set is the ultimate tribute to Pixar and is an ideal gift for adult fans and those who love collecting movie memorabilia. The 613-piece posable set makes an eye-catching display and offers fans a new way to show their love for the iconic lamp who has captured hearts for nearly 40 years.
The new set was designed by London-based fan, Toby Brett, as part of the Lego Ideas programme. Once designed, 10,000 people voted for it to be made into a real set. The clever, playful design was a crowd favourite among the Lego Ideas community, making it a popular choice.
Toby Brett said “I’m a huge fan of all the Pixar films, which were a big part of my childhood and Luxo Jr is the mascot that perfectly sums up my love for these movies. I spent a lot of time looking at photos of Luxo Jr. to make my model as screen-accurate and recognisable as possible.”
The Lego Ideas Pixar Luxo Jr model is available for pre-order and to purchase on 1 June 2025 from Lego stores and from select leading retailers around the world.
