[Rumor] LEGO to release a Tallneck building set from Horizon Zero Dawn

[manustany]

A few months ago a rumor suggested that LEGO is ready to launch a new line of (eleven) sets inspired by videogames properties. Today the first listing has been spotted on a German toy retailer, and it's the Tallneck from Horizon Zero Dawn.

The set is priced at €79.99 and will be available on May 1st, 2022.

I'd love to see actual proper model kits if the HZD robo creatures.

 

[Jake2byFour]

Um if true, insta cop.

 

[IDreamOfHime]

Shadow of the Colossus set next please.

 

[Finale Fireworker]

Not my favorite robot from the games but I would definitely love to see sets based on the game.

 

[Man Called Aerodynamics]

Aloy minifigure?

Thunderjaw was robbed

 

[Exist 2 Inspire]

Thunderjaw MOC exists https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-15474/brickvault/thunder-jaw/

Kit can be found on AliExpress and other bootlego resellers.

...fuuuuck man I don't want to spend more. But Horizon x Lego is gonna be lit

I had no idea of this video game rumor but I got back into LEGO last year thanks to covid, so I'll be buying some of these sets if they are from games I like.

 

[Rodney McKay]

Curious about what the size will be. LEGO has been going a bit wild the last few years with really expensive sets, but I'm hoping this is more of a $50-75 set than a $150+ one.

They can still make some good looking sets in smaller sizes, like the recent $40 Batman Tumbler.

Aloy minifigure?

Very likely, I'd say.

She's pretty much the only character I'd want a minifig of from the game series (and maybe Lance Reddick's character), and since the Longneck's whole thing is Aloy climbing it, I'd say they'd want to include her if only so you can pose her climbing or standing on top of it.

I wonder how many people you could fool into thinking that's an officially licensed build.

 

[Eggiem]

This set is 80€

 

[Jawbreaker]

Would buy.

 

[jayu26]

I have asking for this since before first game released. If priced reasonably, I will be all over it.

 

[Deap92x]

Damnnn i would totally get it.

I call fake unless proven otherwise, the walking physically doesn't seem possible to me, not without the upper body balancing heavily to the left/right.

Model looks amazing. The animation has issues though. You can see the ik legs snap, and a four legged creature doesn't move it's legs like that when walking. This moves more like a biped with an extra pair of legs. It also lacks weight.

But the model is fantastic

it's a 3D model done and animate in Blender

 

[huggyhomer]

It would be awesome if Sony and Lego had a whole line of video game collaborations with PlayStation IPs.

 

[CanUKlehead]

Included in a HFW PS5 bundle?!?

Would be nice, but well, hi, bots,and pandemic, and chip shortage lol

Ah hell, someone make a PS5 Tallneck case already

 

[Roli]

Yup. Instant buy. I've slowed down big time on Lego these last few years, but I'd love to display this set.

 

[Scott]

This set is 80€

That set is based on a theme Lego owns so there are no licensing costs. Licensed sets usually cost more / you get less for the same price as non-licensed ones.

According to the creator, this might be coming in February!

 

[evrythngwastakn]

Not the series I would start with but if they make more of the dino robots my kid will absolutely shit, it was one of the first games he liked to watch me play.

 

[Falchion]

That would be awesome, especially if Lego Aloy can rappel down.

 

[elPolloDiablo]

Awesome love those specialized LEGO kits, been a fan of the Star Wars ones for years.

Also slightly off topic, but can anyone explain to me where the idea came from that HZD's robo creatures are based on dinosaurs? It seems to me they seem to be based more on ice age period creatures (well the glinthawks do look like pteradactyls I guess)

 

[Rats]

I'd love a UCS-level set of the Horizon dinos, but I doubt this will be it, lol.

 

[FarZa17]

I wonder if it will be perfect to place it on the desk.
I want Tallneck as my headphone hanger.

I think it's just that the Thunderjaw (the T-rex) is so iconic. It's the first machine they designed and the first one they really showed off. The big machines like the Thunderjaw and Tallneck are more attention grabbing.

 

[Saint of Killers]

I'll save my excitement for when they release a LEGO Horizon ZD/FW game

 

[DC5remy]

Day 1 if true

 

[LordofPwn]

$80 set is usually around 800 pieces. sometimes more sometimes less. this Lego Star Wars The Child set is $80 but has over 1000 pieces. This set could also get a display plate too.

would have loved for an official Thunderjaw set but i'd also want it in the $150-250 range
