LEGO & Warner Bros. unveiled the LEGO Ideas The Goonies, arriving this November

Actor Ke Huy Quan is seated at a wooden table, smiling warmly while presenting the new LEGO set inspired by The Goonies. The set is a highly detailed model of the iconic pirate ship, The Inferno, with brown hull pieces, ornate gold detailing along the sides, white torn sails, and several minifigures positioned on the deck and rigging. The ship sits on a blue and gray display base designed to look like water and rocks. The background of the scene is decorated with wooden paneling, a globe, antique-style furniture, and multiple model ships, creating a classic, nautical ambiance that complements the theme of the LEGO set.

The LEGO Group, in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, unveiled the LEGO Ideas The Goonies set, a 2,912-piece diorama model that invites adult fans to relive the ultimate underground treasure hunt – in brick form.

To celebrate the launch, the LEGO Group has partnered with Oscar-winning actor Ke Huy Quan for a nostalgic mini-film tribute to the beloved 1980s classic. Revisiting his role as Data, the gadget mastermind, Ke Huy Quan guides viewers through the set’s booby traps and showcases hidden easter eggs, sharing personal memories from his iconic performance along the way. Fans can watch the mini-film and step back into the adventure here.

This collectible set features brick-built recreations of memorable scenes, from the Fratellis’ hideaway and caves, to One-Eyed Willy’s legendary treasure room. You can even flip the model to reveal the haunting wreckage of the Inferno pirate ship. Twelve key characters are represented as minifigures, including Mikey, Mouth, Chunk, Andy, and of course, Data. Brand-new elements were designed for Sloth’s pirate hat and bandana, and Mama Fratelli’s hair and beret.

Ke Huy Quan comments: “Revisiting Data after all these years – but this time in LEGO form – has been such a joyful experience. The Goonies was all about heart, adventure, and friendship, and this set captures that spirit in fantastic detail. From the booby traps to the treasure room, it’s like stepping back into the tunnels with the gang – only now, I get to share that magic with a whole new generation of fans.”

Builders can drop boulders and activate trapdoors with the Copper Bones Skeleton Key and play the Skeleton Organ – just be careful not to hit the wrong note! The set is packed with nostalgic details for The Goonies fans, with props including Data’s utility belt and Mouth’s hairbrush. There is even a nod to the legendary deleted octopus scene, plus Sloth’s daring mast-slide onto the Inferno’s deck.

Cutaway LEGO model of the ship from The Goonies, intricately detailed to capture scenes and characters from the film. The structure is composed primarily of warm reddish-brown LEGO bricks forming the hull and rigging of the pirate ship, accented by tattered, sand-colored sails attached to two tall masts. The front of the ship seamlessly connects to a rocky gray base, which transforms into a cave system complete with stalactites, blue water elements, and a prominent sculpted stone skull above the entrance. The interior is displayed in a cross-section, revealing multiple rooms and play areas. The top deck features minifigures engaged in various activities: one figure is holding a telescope, while two others appear to be climbing or swinging from the torn sail. The lower decks are divided into several distinct spaces, each filled with character minifigures and numerous thematic props, such as treasure chests, barrels, lanterns, and ship wheels. Several skeletons and skeleton-themed accessories can be seen, hinting at the pirate lore from the film. On the left side, behind the ship’s stern, a small cabin displays detailed furnishings, with a wanted poster on the wall, and a minifigure behind a desk. Below that, within a rocky alcove, two minifigures appear to be exploring, surrounded by blue studs representing water and clear blue stalactites. On the right side, inside the cave section formed by the stone skull entrance, a minifigure holds a lantern while another inspects gold bricks—both surrounded by bones and loose stones, adding depth and adventure to the scene. Skeleton minifigures and various accessories dot the interior spaces, while the overall color palette blends earthy browns, deep grays, and bright accent colors used for minifigure clothing. The set is packed with vibrant storytelling elements and nods to The Goonies film, featuring a dynamic scene full of action, discovery, and nostalgia.

The LEGO Ideas The Goonies set was submitted by Greece-based 3D artist and Fan Designer, Vaggelis Ntezes (LEGO Ideas name: Delusion Brick), as part of the LEGO Ideas programme. LEGO Ideas allows fans to submit product ideas, which are then voted for by the community before being considered to be made into an official LEGO set. “In designing this set, I revisited my childhood memories – growing up in the 80s, playing with LEGO Pirates sets and watching The Goonies,” said Vaggelis Ntezes. “Combining nostalgia, fantasy, and creativity, I wanted to build something that offered both playability and display value. The final design merges the legendary Inferno with the cave system and booby traps, capturing the spirit of adventure that made the film so unforgettable. I’m thrilled to see it come to life and hope it brings joy to fans old and new.”
