‘Stranger Things’ LEGO: New Creel House Set Revealed, Price, Minifigures, Release Dates, and a Launch Bonus
Stranger Things

The world of Hawkins is brick-built again. LEGO has unveiled Stranger Things: The Creel House (set 11370), a premium 2,593-piece display model priced at $299.99 and rated 18+. The set arrives January 1, 2026, aligning with the show’s year-end crescendo and giving fans a fresh centerpiece to ring in the new year.

What’s in the new ‘Stranger Things’ LEGO set

The model recreates the Creel family’s Victorian house with dense interior detail—and a showstopping trick. The structure splits and transforms to reveal Vecna’s interdimensional Mind Lair, turning a stately façade into a horror diorama in seconds. Expect layered rooms, story nods tucked into shelves and corners, and a color palette that shifts from Hawkins realism to Upside Down menace when the build opens.

Minifigures (13 total)

  • Eleven, Max, Mike, Dustin, Lucas, Will

  • Steve, Nancy, Robin, Jonathan

  • Holly

  • Vecna

  • Mr. Clarke (listed on some early product cards as “Mr. Whatsit”; the school’s science teacher is represented)

Accessories lean into plot beats—flashlights, era-appropriate props, and scene builders that make the finished model feel animated even on a shelf.

Release timing, early access, and price

  • Price: $299.99 in the U.S. (regional pricing varies).

  • Pieces/Age: 2,593 pieces, 18+.

  • Availability: January 1, 2026 online and in brand stores, with wider retail from January 4.

  • Launch bonus: Purchases January 1–7 include a gift-with-purchase micro-set“WSQK Radio Station”—while supplies last. The bonus features Joyce Byers and Sheriff Hopper in a compact build that pairs neatly with the main display.

Tip: These early-January promos typically sell out fastest in larger markets; if the add-on is a must, buy on day one.

How ‘Creel House’ connects to the finale moment

The drop lands immediately after the series’ climactic chapter, making the set a quasi-epilogue you can build at home. The Mind Lair transformation doubles as spoiler-aware design: it honors late-series iconography without requiring the model to be locked in its most revealing pose. Display it closed for a stately Hawkins look, or open it to telegraph the show’s darker mythology.

Build experience and display notes

  • Complexity: Expect a long, satisfying session with sub-assemblies for façades, interiors, and the hinge/track mechanics that enable the transformation.

  • Footprint: The house is wider than it is deep in closed mode; transformed, it expands laterally. Clear a wide shelf or console table rather than a narrow bookcase.

  • Techniques: Advanced SNOT (studs-not-on-top) paneling, arch work around windows, and organic tendril elements in the Mind Lair.

  • Lighting potential: Thematic lamp posts, window frames, and lair tendrils are ripe for aftermarket lighting kits if you want a nighttime glow.

How it compares to the retired ‘Upside Down’ (75810)

Fans have been clamoring for a proper follow-up to The Upside Down—the 2019 Byers house that flipped between worlds. Creel House is bigger, more detailed, and its transform function is more theatrical than the earlier set’s 1:1 mirror. Where 75810 delivered a clever gravity gag, 11370 emphasizes scene-change storytelling and a deeper minifigure bench (13 vs. 8), reflecting how the cast and stakes expanded over the series.

Buying strategy and collector tips

  • Launch window: If you want the WSQK Radio Station bonus, purchase Jan. 1–7. These gifts are limited; stores may set daily allotments.

  • Insiders points: Ensure your loyalty account is active before checkout; a $299.99 set typically nets a meaningful points rebate toward future releases.

  • Box condition: Ask staff for a shipper-fresh box if you’re a sealed collector. Early runs often come in pristine master cartons.

  • Aftermarket reality: The first month usually sees resale pressure if the gift-with-purchase is popular. If you miss the bonus, restocks of the main set are common—don’t overpay unless you also want the GWP.

Will there be more ‘Stranger Things’ LEGO?

Nothing else is announced for January, but the re-engagement with the license—paired with a minifigure lineup that still leaves room for variants—suggests the door is open. A display vehicle or a small villain vignette would slot naturally beside Creel House on shelves. For now, the flagship delivers the definitive adult build for the franchise.

Stranger Things: The Creel House (11370) is a feature-rich, $299.99, 2,593-piece centerpiece that transforms to reveal Vecna’s Mind Lair and packs 13 minifigures. It releases January 1, 2026, with a WSQK Radio Station gift available through January 7. If you missed the 2019 classic, this is the moment to bring Hawkins home—just in time to toast the finale with a fresh build on New Year’s Day.
