Twilight Fans Can Now Build Their Very Own Cullen Family Lego House, Complete with Tiny Bella and Edward Figures

Get ready, spider monkeys, because LEGO is about to release their very first set based on The Twilight Saga.

On Feb 4, fans of the popular vampire franchise will be able to sink their teeth into the whopping 2,001-piece set, which features the iconic Cullen House as seen in Lionsgate’s hit film series, complete with minifigures of Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. In case you’re wondering, yes, the Edward figure also sparkles! 

The highly accurate set comes with a replica of the stylish three-story house, every floor brimming with rooms and accessories inspired by key scenes from across the franchise, including Edward’s bedroom and the grand piano in the living room. 

There’s even a towering brick tree perfect for Edward and Bella’s many memorable treetop moments. Other recognizable pieces include Bella’s red truck and a brick-built giant wolf form for Jacob Black. Jacob also gets a standard minifigure, along with other fan-favorite characters like Carlisle, Esme, Alice and Charlie.

The meticulously detailed set is loaded with many Easter eggs that only eagle-eyed Twilight fans are sure to spot. One example is the Cullen family graduation cap collection you see on the way up to Edward’s room, a reference to a Cullen family joke.

LEGO’s Twilight The Cullen House is now available for pre-order on the toy company’s official site or at LEGO stores. It will be also available for purchase on Feb. 4 for $219.99.

According to an official press release from LEGO, the Twilight set was the brainchild of California-based LEGO and proud Twi-Hard Nick Micheels, as part of the LEGO Ideas programme.

Once he submitted his design, 10,000 people voted for it to be made into a real set in less than 48 hours, making it one of the fastest submissions to reach the voting benchmark to date.

“The amazing submissions on the LEGO Ideas site that demonstrated how dynamic the LEGO system is inspired me to submit my own idea,” said Micheels, per LEGO’s press release. “I decided to create a Twilight build because I’m a massive fan of the saga, and imagining a LEGO interpretation of the films made me so happy!”

The Twilight Saga, which starred Kristen Stewart as Bella and Robert Pattinson as Edward, was based on the successful book series written by Stephenie Meyer. The original Twilight novel was released in 2005, followed by New Moon in 2006, Eclipse in 2007 and Breaking Dawn in 2008.

Meyer’s book series was adapted into five very successful movies that set the box office ablaze, beginning with Twilight in 2008, The Twilight Saga: New Moon in 2009 and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse in 2010, with the fourth and final book split into two separate movies, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1 in 2011 and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2 in 2012.
