Overview

  • LEGO is turning the world’s most coveted football silverware into a buildable flex, unveiling a life-size FIFA World Cup trophy made from 2,842 gold-toned bricks as part of a new collaboration with FIFA World Cup 2026.
  • The replica sticks to the original’s 36.8cm silhouette but swaps 18-carat gold for intricate plastic geometry, debuting under the new LEGO Editions banner as a display-first set aimed at teens and adult fans.
  • Hidden inside the upper globe is a secret diorama featuring the 2026 tournament logo and an exclusive minifigure hoisting a mini trophy, plus a base plaque listing every champion since 1974 for added history-nerd cred.
  • Dropping in March 2026 at around $200, the set lands just as the expanded 48-team World Cup hits North America, positioning LEGO as an off-pitch player in the tournament’s merch and memorabilia story.
  • LEGO’s Julia Goldin calls the trophy “a universal symbol of achievement and unity” and says the collab lets fans experience it “piece by piece – in true LEGO style”.
  • FIFA’s own rollout frames the partnership as a gateway to new fan experiences at fan festivals and special events, with more LEGO Editions drops teased to keep the hype running through 2026.
  • For sneakerheads, kit collectors and AFOLs alike, this is World Cup culture distilled into a coffee-table grail that blurs the line between sports memorabilia, design object and status brick.
