    LEGO Is Making a PlayStation 1 Set

    It appears that LEGO is gearing up to release a new retro PlayStation 1 LEGO set, giving LEGO fans and retro enthusiasts another set to look forward to in the near future. The story of the LEGO PlayStation console began when AirBricks95’s recreation of Sony’s first home console, which was released in 1994, appeared on the LEGO Ideas platform. The model quickly gathered the backing of more than 10,000 votes and drew the attention of LEGO’s review team, although official details remain scare for now.

    Pricing and Specs Are Leaking Out

    However, it’s still not known whether AirBricks95 is directly involved in the project, but leaks imply that a brick-built PS1 is coming soon. Community reports by leakers DarthBeardBrix and TheBrickNews, shared on X, state that “a LEGO PS1 set is reported to release between October and December 2026, and will cost $159/€159, featuring 1,911 pieces. It will be titled ‘#72306 – Sony PlayStation 1 Console’ and will include one controller as well.” Some leaks point to an October 2026 release, while others suggest December around Christmas, adding to LEGO’s retro console lineup which already includes the NES with a tiny TV, the Sega Genesis, and the Atari 2600.

    Comparing to Other LEGO Consoles

    Considering the LEGO Sony PS1 set is rumored to feature 1,911 LEGO pieces, it would be larger and more detailed than the LEGO Sega Genesis set, which had only 479 pieces and cost $39.99. However, it would be somewhat more compact than the LEGO NES set, which boasted 2,464 pieces. Fans are currently hoping for interactive Easter eggs, like a disc tray that opens up or working buttons, similar to the recently released LEGO Game Boy set. The inclusion of a PS1 controller would help ensure it is both an interactive LEGO model and a display piece for adult collectors and retro gamers.

    No Official Word Yet But Leaks Seem Solid

    Currently, there’s no official word, box art, or detailed information about the LEGO Sony PlayStation 1 set, but given the number of typically reliable leakers keeping an eye out for the upcoming retro LEGO set, it seems reasonable to expect it will release in late 2026. Leakers DarthBeardBrix and TheBrickNews on X are the main sources for these rumors, and while the set hasn’t been confirmed, the consistent reports make a 2026 release feel likely for collectors and gamers alike.
