Lego's adorable new building set based on Disney Pixar's beloved 2008 animated movie WALL-E is now available at major retailers, including Walmart and Amazon, and the Lego Store. The 811-piece model features buildable WALL-E, EVE, and M-O figures as well as Hal, the last plant on Earth, and a Garbage Cube. It's perhaps a coincidence, but the launch of the new set coincides with a limited-time deal on WALL-E's wonderful Criterion Collection 4K Blu-ray edition.
Pixar fans who don't already own Lego's 598-piece recreation of the Up House should check out Walmart's Lego Pixar bundle deal before purchasing the new WALL-E set. Walmart has WALL-E and EVE bundled with the Up House for $95, which means you're only spending $25 on the Up House. The Disney Pixar 2-in-1 Bundle is just one of over a dozen Lego bundle deals you'll find exclusively at Walmart as part of the retailer's Bricktember Sale. We wouldn't expect this particular bundle to remain in stock for long.
The surprise return of WALL-E is welcome news for Pixar fans who love Lego--and paying retail prices for Lego sets. Back in 2015, WALL-E the robot made its brick-set debut in the Lego Ideas line. The 677-piece set retailed for $60 and was officially retired about a year later. Since then, the value of Lego Ideas WALL-E (21303) has skyrocketed. Today, a brand-new set is valued at just shy of $350. Even preowned sets that are already assembled can pull in $200, according to Brick Economy, a great resource that tracks online marketplace sales. And it's not just one sale every couple of months; there are dozens of completed over the past few weeks.
