LEGO is inviting Stranger Things fans back to Hawkins in spectacular fashion with a massive new set based on the Creel family mansion, the ominous focal point of the show’s later seasons.

Priced at $300 and built from 2,593 pieces, The Creel House becomes a detailed, display-worthy centerpiece that doubles as a love letter to all five seasons of the series.

Rather than being just another TV tie-in, LEGO describes this as its first transforming house design. The model can be rebuilt into different states of the mansion, echoing how the Creel home shifts between ordinary reality, the Upside Down, and the ruin left in the wake of Vecna’s influence. By rearranging sections and opening up rooms, builders can recreate key story moments, from eerie flashbacks to all-out supernatural showdowns, turning the set into a physical scrapbook of Stranger Things history.

The ultimate brick tribute to The Creel House

On the outside, The Creel House captures the show’s haunting production design: weathered brickwork, twisted trees in the yard, and that menacing facade fans know too well from Season 4. Inside, rooms are packed with show references and tiny storytelling details. Max’s cassette tape hints at her unforgettable showdown with Vecna. Henry’s scribbled Mind Flayer sketch nods to his dark imagination. Props from different seasons sit side by side, rewarding fans who explore every corner of the build.

Vehicles are included to keep the model from feeling static. You can roll Steve’s car up to the house, prop Will’s bike against the fence, and park the WSQK radio van nearby, as if the gang has just arrived to investigate the latest supernatural disaster. Together, the house and vehicles form a compact diorama of Hawkins on the brink.

Thirteen minifigures, from Eleven to Vecna

LEGO has stuffed the box with a generous roster of 13 minifigures so the mansion never feels empty. Eleven, Will, Mike, Lucas, Dustin and Holly represent the core kids and their extended circle. Steve, Nancy, Robin, Jonathan and Max bring the older teen crew into the mix, ready for bat-swinging and mystery-solving. Rounding things out are the enigmatic Mr. Whatsit and the terrifying Vecna himself, giving fans both the villain and the victims needed to stage full storylines.

Display The Creel House as a tense standoff between Vecna and Eleven, or rewind the story to earlier seasons by reposing the characters and props. Because the model is designed to be rebuilt and reconfigured, it encourages long-term play and creative storytelling rather than a single static display.

Release timing tied to the series finale

In a clever bit of synergy, LEGO has timed the launch of The Creel House to the Stranger Things endgame. Fans will be able to place pre-orders starting on New Year’s Eve at 5 p.m. Pacific, just hours before the feature-length series finale hits Netflix and select theaters on December 31. Once the in-universe grandfather clock strikes midnight and we roll into New Year’s Day 2026, the set moves from pre-order status to full release.

Early buyers get an extra treat. Purchases made through January 7, 2026 will include an additional Stranger Things build as a gift: the WSQK Radio Station. This bonus model adds even more Hawkins flavor to your shelf and, importantly, brings Joyce and Hopper into the minifigure lineup, at least while supplies last.

Creators’ seal of approval and the road to the finale

Series creators Matt and Ross Duffer have spoken about how surreal it is to see their nostalgic horror saga reimagined in LEGO form, especially as Stranger Things approaches its tenth anniversary and its final chapter at the same time. For them, The Creel House set functions as a celebration of the world they built and the passionate fandom that has carried it.

The toy’s release also lands right as the climactic fifth season unfolds. The first four episodes are already streaming on Netflix, drawing such huge audiences that the service briefly buckled under demand. Early reactions suggest that, after a short warm-up, the season finds its rhythm and confidently pushes the Hawkins story toward a grand conclusion.

The final stretch is mapped out: three more episodes are scheduled to arrive on December 25, before the finale closes things out on December 31 with a feature-length send-off. For fans, that means December is packed with emotional goodbyes on screen and the chance to build a physical monument to the show at home.

For collectors, The Creel House stands at the crossroads of two obsessions: premium display LEGO sets and prestige genre television. It is expensive, intricate, and unmistakably aimed at older fans who have grown up with both bricks and binge-watching. Between the transforming design, 13 minifigures, packed-in Easter eggs and time-limited bonus radio station, this is positioned as the definitive Stranger Things LEGO experience.
