When it comes to Lego, nothing quite captures the imagination like a detailed model, and Titans Creations has certainly made waves with their incredible 10,000-piece replica of the Millennium Falcon—Han Solo’s beloved starship. Standing at 3 ½ feet long, this impressive creation is 40 percent larger than anything Lego has released. But let’s take a moment to dream about some other beloved ’80s icons that would make fantastic Lego sets. Here are five we’d love to see:
1. Mr. Miyagi
Picture Mr. Miyagi from The Karate Kid, performing that iconic crane kick on a wooden post at the beach while Daniel looks on in awe. With “wax on, wax off” vibes, a Lego version of this scene would totally capture the spirit of mentorship.
2. Lloyd Dobler
Who could forget Lloyd Dobler from Say Anything, standing outside Diane Court’s house with a boom box held high, showcasing his love? A Lego version of him, trench coat and all, would be a must-have. Bonus points if they could make it play Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes”!
3. Marty McFly
While Lego has offered a DeLorean from Back to the Future, imagine a set featuring both Doc in his lab coat and Marty McFly in his classic puffer vest. It would make for a perfect nostalgic addition to any collection.
4. Madonna
How about a Lego take on Madonna in her iconic lace bustier from the 1984 “Like a Virgin” music video? Just think—if they could make it move like Madge did, it would be a showstopper, for sure!
5. Ferris Bueller
Finally, a Lego Ferris Bueller rocking out to “Danke Schoen” and “Twist and Shout” on a parade float, complete with the Chicago skyline in the background. A perfect tribute to skipping school and embracing life, because as Ferris wisely said, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
