Another year is almost behind us, and the pressure is on once again to find the perfect gifts for loved ones. Thankfully, if you’re shopping for a LEGO fan, there are perfect gifts waiting around every corner.
From Star Wars to Marvel to DC to Fortnite, LEGO’s 2025 line-up really does have something for everyone. And while the cost of LEGO is generally increasing year-on-year, there are still plenty of gift options for those who don’t want to spend an arm and a leg this holiday season.
The Best Star Wars LEGO Sets To Buy This Holiday Season
Jango Fett’s Firespray-Class Starship – 2970 Pieces – $299.99
Coming in at an impressive 2,970 pieces, the LEGO Star Wars Jango Fett Firespray-Class set is a perfect choice of gift for any older Star Wars LEGO fan. Though the original 2015 LEGO Slave 1 set retailed for $100 less, that model’s been retired for quite some time now, making this Jango Fett version of the ship the best option for fans still looking to own the iconic Star Wars vehicle.
Rebel U-Wing Starfighter – 594 Pieces – $69.99
Inspired by one of the best shows of the year, and one of the best pieces of Star Wars media out there, the LEGO Andor Rebel U-Wing Starfighter comes with 594 pieces and four minifigures, including Cassian Andor, Dedra Meero, and the lovable K-2SO. Its play features include spring-loaded missiles and adjustable wings.
501st Clone Troopers Battle Pack – 119 Pieces – $19.99
A great pick for anyone looking to buy their Star Wars-obsessed loved one a LEGO set on a budget, the 501st Clone Troopers Battle Pack retails for just $20 and comes with four very well-detailed minifigures, all inspired by Anakin Skywalker’s 501st Clone battalion. These assorted Clone Troops come with a buildable anti-vehicle canon complete with a spring-loaded missile.
The Best Harry Potter LEGO Sets To Buy This Holiday Season
Hogsmeade Village Collectors’ Edition – 3228 Pieces – $399.99
Another set tailor-made with older collector’s in mind, this LEGO Harry Potter Hogsmeade Village set includes three separate builds that join together to form the iconic Wizarding World location. This collector’s set includes 12 minifigures, including Harry Potter, Hermione Grainger, Ron Weasley, Aberforth Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Draco Malfoy.
Hogwarts Express Book Nook – 832 Pieces – $99.99
For those looking for something a tad more practical, the LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express Book Nook could be a great option. While this set can be joined together to form a complete scene of Platform 9 and 3/4, it’s designed to be split in half and used to prop up a set of books on a shelf.
Flying Ford Anglia – 165 Pieces – $14.99
One of the cheapest licensed LEGO sets around, this LEGO Harry Potter Flying Ford Anglia is a great way to get minifigures of Harry and Ron without needing to shell out for a more expensive set. This set also comes with little LEGO versions of Hedwig and Scabbers.
The Best Marvel LEGO Sets To Buy This Holiday Season
X-Men: The X-Mansion – 3093 Pieces – $329.99
Though it released last year, the LEGO X-Men X-Mansion is still one of the best sets to get older Marvel fans for the 2025 holiday season. Along with a brick-built Sentinel and 10 minifigures inspired directly by the X-Men ’97 versions of these iconic Marvel heroes and villains, the 3,000-piece X-Mansion is packed with references to the animated show and the comics that will put a smile on the face of any fan.
Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock Subway Train Scene – 393 Pieces – $54.99
Another incredibly nostalgic LEGO Marvel set, the LEGO Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock Subway Train Scene set captures one of Spider-Man 2’s most iconic sequences perfectly. Along with a LEGO-ified Tobey Maguire Spider-Man, this set includes minifigures of Doc Ock, Aunt May, and J. Jonah Jameson.
The Best DC LEGO Sets To Buy This Holiday Season
Arkham Asylum – 2953 Pieces – $299.99
Swapping over to the other side of the proverbial comic book pond, LEGO’s Arkham Asylum set is arguably one of the year’s very best. Much like the LEGO X-Mansion, Arkham Asylum is packed with references and highly-detailed minifigures which run the gamut of popular Batman villains and lesser-known heroes like Batwing.
Batman Tumbler vs. Two-Face & The Joker – 429 Pieces – $59.99
This is far from the first time LEGO has made a set inspired by The Dark Knight’s Tumbler, but this one could be in the running for one of the best. Though its price is rather steep given the smaller piece-count, the Tumbler itself looks fantastic and Christian Bale’s Batman, Heath Ledger’s Joker, and Aaron Eckhart’s Two-Face are all included.
The Best LEGO Icons Sets To Buy This Holiday Season
The Legend of Zelda Great Deku Tree 2-in-1 – 2500 Pieces – $299.99
LEGO’s first foray into the world of The Legend of Zelda, the Great Deku Tree is an impressive set that can be made to look like its Zelda: Ocarina of Time version or its Breath of the Wild version. This set includes three minifigures of Link that capture his Breath of the Wild look and both his child and adult appearances in Ocarina of Time, as well as a Breath of the Wild-inspired Princess Zelda minifig and some brick-built Hyrule creatures.
Transformers Soundwave – 1505 Pieces – $189.99
The third model in LEGO’s ongoing Transformers line, Soundwave is another great gift for anyone feeling nostalgic this holiday season. Just like LEGO Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, Soundwave can transform into his covert G1 appearance: a retro cassette player. LEGO Soundwave comes with his trusty companions Laserbeak and Ravage, both of whom can also transform.
Sherlock Holmes Book Nook – 1359 Pieces – $129.99
Another one of LEGO’s new book nook sets, the LEGO Sherlock Holmes Book Nook is also designed to sit on a bookshelf. But unlike the Hogwarts Express set, this book nook doesn’t separate in the middle. Instead, it folds, creating a miniature version of Baker Street. This set also includes five minifigures: Sherlock Holmes, Dr. Watson, Irene Adler, Professor Moriarty, and Paige.
The Best Minecraft LEGO Sets To Buy This Holiday Season
Minecraft Movie Woodland Mansion Fighting Ring – 491 Pieces – $49.99
A defining movie moment of 2025 captured in LEGO form, the Minecraft Movie Woodland Mansion Fighting Ring set delivers a brick-built version of the infamous “Chicken Jockey” scene. As well as a functional fighting ring, this LEGO Minecraft set comes with The Great Hog, a Baby Zombie, Garrett, Henry, and Steve himself.
The Creeper – 665 Pieces – $39.99
A great alternative for those not wanting to hear “Chicken Jockey” screamed non-stop throughout the holiday season, the LEGO Minecraft Creeper offers a lovely display model that still has enough play features to keep younger LEGO fans invested. This Creeper LEGO set also comes with a cute reference to the original version of the Creeper, which began life as an accidentally elongated pig model.
The Best Fortnite LEGO Sets To Buy This Holiday Season
Battle Bus – 954 Pieces – $99.99
Fortnite is still one of the hottest games around and LEGO has a handful of official sets to choose from. By far the best LEGO Fortnite set out right now is the Battle Bus, capturing the iconic vehicle players see at the start of every Battle Royale match. This set comes with nine minifigures based on in-game skins, including Adventure Peely, Meowscles, and Cuddle Team Leader.
Peely & Sparkplug’s Camp – 250 Pieces – $22.99
A much cheaper option is the LEGO Fortnite Peely & Sparkplug’s Camp. This set retails for just over $20 and gives fans minifigures of the two titular Fortnite heroes, as well as a buildable Loot Llama and a playset inspired by actual in-game scenery from LEGO Fortnite Odyssey.
The Best LEGO City Sets to Buy This Holiday Season
Modular Galactic Spaceship – 717 Pieces – $79.99
For those wanting LEGO sets not based on a specific IP, the LEGO City theme is where to look. With no need to pay for a license, LEGO City sets tend to be technically better value for money, and that’s certainly the case with the Modular Galactic Spaceship, which delivers a highly customizable 717-piece set with five minifigures for $80.
Go-Karts and Race Drivers – 99 Pieces – $9.99
The cheapest set on this list and the perfect stocking stuffer, the LEGO City Go-Karts and Race Drivers set retails for just $10 and comes with two unique minifigures and some stylish vehicles.
