LEGO Avatar theme officially confirmed for 2022!

March 23, 2022 | 25

One of the most heavily rumoured new LEGO themes of 2022 has just been confirmed in the most mundane way possible. James Cameron’s has been confirmed thanks to an interview on License Global, uncovered by UK LEGO site Bricksfanz!

“The LEGO Group will also have a full suite of building sets to recreate and display major movie moments across both the first “Avatar” film and “Avatar 2.”   

Previously, there had been heavy rumours of an Avatar theme (James Cameron, not The Last Airbender), codenamed “Coconut” floating around online, with the following set numbers and prices:

75571 – €39.99 (560 pieces)
75572 – €54.99 (572 pieces)
75573 – €89.99 (887 pieces)
75574 – €139.99 (1,212 pieces)

It was a tossup between Avatar or Indiana Jones 5, but the confirmation of James Cameron’s Avatar getting LEGO sets featuring settings the first 2 movies has all but confirmed these rumours now.

It’s unknown if there will only be 4 sets from the wave, but for a license and tentpole movie like Avatar 2, which has a release date of 16 December 2022, I’d be surprised if this was all we’d be getting.

Remember, Avatar is the highest grossing movie of ALL time, netting US$2.84 billion at the box office, so I think this will be absolutely huge.

The quote confirms that we’ll get sets from Avatar 1, and Avatar 2, so check out some art from the movies below to get a sense of what to expect.

There’s also been concept art released for Avatar 2, which you can check out below. Pandora’s (the planet Avatar is based on)colour palette and settings are so otherworldly and alien, and I’m excited to see what the LEGO sets look like. I think it’ll be wild!

What do you think now that LEGO Avatar has all but been confirmed? Are you excited to get sets based on the movies?
