There are various ways to honor successful films and series. Award ceremonies come to mind when the title is still quite current, for example. Or special home video editions for influential works. But it’s akin to a pop culture accolade when something is immortalized in the form of small Danish building blocks. Now, there’s also an “X-Files” set from Lego for all fans of the cult series from the ’90s.

“X-Files” Lego Set Conceived by Fan

As the company states in a press release, the new “X-Files” set from Lego originates from a fan idea submitted to the Lego Ideas program. There, community members can present their own designs, where they can receive votes from others. With enough positive feedback, the manufacturer takes a closer look and decides whether the idea goes into production.

With “X-Files,” this was apparently successful. The set consists of 1,478 pieces and includes a replica of Fox Mulder’s office, a forest scene, and a hovering UFO. Eight figures are included, among them the well-known FBI agents Mulder and Scully. Naturally, a small alien is also part of the set.

Several Easter Eggs Hidden in Lego Set

It wouldn’t be an “X-Files” set for true fans of the series if it didn’t contain various references in the many details. For example, there’s a nod to Mulder’s habit of eating sunflower seeds. Additionally, there are pencils in the office ceiling, and the well-known phrases “The truth is out there” and “I want to believe” are also included.

Scully actress Gillian Anderson stepped back into her old role for the marketing of the new set and appeared in a short promotional clip:

How Much the “X-Files” Set Costs

The new release is explicitly aimed at adults and even comes with an age recommendation of 18 and up. This makes sense, as only adults are likely to afford the set: the building block fun is priced at 199.99 euros.

Members of Lego Insiders can order the set starting August 1, 2026. From August 4, the public can display it at home.
