LEGO CNY Sets Are Models For A Festive Celebration

The Chinese New Year (CNY) season often inspires many businesses to released themed products, and classic toy brand LEGO is one of them.

True to the festive spirit, they’ve launched 3 CNY sets which include the LEGO Chinese Traditional Festival, DUPLO, and Story of Nian.

Moon gates, bamboo trees, pagodas, and koi ponds characteristic of Chinese gardens make the set look even more realistic.

In lieu of the Year of the Ox, there’s also an ox-shaped figurine equipped with a LEGO light brick. Perhaps turning the light on will bring you more prosperity this niu year.

LEGO Happy Childhood Moments evokes nostalgia for our youth

The best memories of events like CNY no doubt come from our childhood, when we had less things to worry about and enjoyed celebrations in complete bliss.

Building the Happy Childhood Moments set will surely evoke nostalgia for those days.

Along with red packets which are a little too large for the mini figurines, the set looks just like a typical CNY reunion scenario complete with an ah ma and ah gong.

Sets available for purchase on LEGO website

The LEGO CNY sets are available for purchase on the LEGO Official Store on Shopee, or Bricks World.

Prices start from $109.90 for the Story of Nian set, and vary across the different designs.

Since the designs are limited edition, we’d suggest getting a set or more soon, while they’re still available.

LEGO CNY set for fun bonding moments with family

Building the LEGO CNY sets with our loved ones is guaranteed to be a memorable bonding experience.

We adore our Lunar New Year traditions, so recreating them will remind us of our previous celebrations and help make new memories of present ones too.
