LEGO officially reveals 21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera, surprisingly cheaper than the real thing

December 16, 2023 | 6

LEGO have officially revealed the 53rd LEGO Ideas set, the highly anticipated 21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera, a detailed brick-built re-creation of the iconic Polaroid SX-70 Onestep Camera that will be available from 1 January 2024 onwards.

This 516-piece model will retail for a very respectable US$79.99 / AU$89.99 and will be available from LEGO.com or your local LEGO Store from 1 January 2024, however you can also pre-order the set today!

Really surprised at how affordable this is in Australia and was almost sure the price supplied was a typo as the US price would’ve translated to about AU$120. We don’t often get a win Down Under with pricing, but this was a very pleasant surprise.

See below to preorder from regional product pages:

• 21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera [US] – US$79.99
• 21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera [AUS] – AU$89.99
• 21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera [UK] – £69.99
• 21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera [EU] – €79.99
• 21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera [CA] – CAD$99.99

In Australia, pre-orders are available from the LEGO Certified Store website where you can click and collect on the 1st.

Here’s a look at the back of the box. The LEGO Polaroid Camera measures 9cm (3.5 in.) wide, 9cm (3.5 in.) tall and 15cm (5.9 in.) deep.

I’m still pleasantly surprised by the price. Fun fact, the LEGO Polaroid Camera is cheaper than buying an actual modern Polaroid-branded camera from Polaroid themselves. Wild!

One of the key features of the LEGO Polaroid Camera is the buildable Polaroid Time-Zero Land Film pack and three LEGO Polaroid illustrated ‘photos’. 

The camera features a working viewfinder, the iconic Color Spectrum, exposure compensation dial and a shutter button so you even can load and eject the illustrated photos.

Also included is an opening film door to load LEGO Polaroid Photos in.

It makes for a really cute display model, and will appeal to people who grew up with Polaroid cameras, as well as those who enjoy collecting retro technology and gadgets.

This is a great-looking model and with the accessible price and compact size of the model, I can see this being very popular, especially for fans looking to jump in and enjoy all the new 1 January 2024 releases!

21345 Polaroid OneStep Camera will be available from LEGO.com or your local LEGO Store from 1 January 2024, but pre-orders are open now!

What do you think of the LEGO Polaroid Camera? Will you be picking it up on the 1st of January?
