LEGO remakes iconic Forestman’s Hideout set as a gift with purchase for 90th Anniversary

May 29, 2022 | 11

It’s actually happening! Thanks to Candidbricks, a LEGO Certified Store in China has given us a grainy sneak peek at an upcoming 90th Anniversary LEGO Gift with Purchase (gwp) – LEGO 40567 Forest Hideout.

Update: Check out my review of 40567 Forest Hideout, to see more of the set!

40567 Forest Hideout is now available from LEGO.com and your local LEGO stores, and is free with purchases of US$150 / AU$209 / £150 from 15-22 June, while stocks last.

Update 2: We now have availability details in North America, as well as more photos! 40567 Forest Hideout will be available from 15-22 June 2022, and will be free with purchases of US$150 or more. Check out this post for more details, as well as a look at 2 new 90th Anniversary VIP rewards!

Update: To see why the original is so special, check out my Retro LEGO Review of the original 6054 Forestmen’s Hideout!

This is a delightful retro throwback to 6054 Forestmen’s Hideout, complete with vintage-style packaging which has the set name in teal on the corner strip.

According to the flyer, the set will be available from 15-30 June in China, so stay tuned for global availability details, dates and purchase thresholds.

If you’re a Forestmen fan like myself, this set is a dream come true. Modern design and elements update this incredibly iconic set. It comes with a Forestmen and a Forestwomen, a small hideout, and of course target practice as well.

Looks like my prediction of Forestmen making a comeback was completely right, based off the presence of these Forestmen caps in the 10309 Succulents set!

And if you remember my 90th Anniversary Predictions from September 2021, it looks like I called this one perfectly!

Now if you’ll excuse me… I have a sudden need to rummage through my Vintage LEGO Vault to re-assemble this set.

I have a deep, deep love for the Forestmen (only outdone by my love for Wolfpack), so I am just filled with so much joy for this GWP.

What do you think of the Forestmen Hideout remake as a GWP?
