There are already far too many sets on why Lego wishlist, and the brick brand's June/July 2026 drop isn't doing anything to help matters. There are 16 new sets on their way, with preorders open now. A number of them are more geared towards younger builders, but amongst the adult-focused sets are a couple that have the potential to become modern classics.
I'll start with the one that everyone's talking about: the Lego Icons Road Bike. In fact, the brand's first ever dedicated road bike set, and it hasn't gone half-measures — the 1,015-piece, costs $129.99, and measures over 14in / 36cm in height. Of course, there are plenty of charming touches, from the tiny, removable water bottle to the rubber tires and brake light, but probably the coolest thing is that the drivetrain actually works. This set is available from 1 June, with the earliest delivery the following day, so there's plenty of time to pick one up as a Father's Day gift if your Dad happens to be a cycling fan.
Another standout amongst the new additions is the Lego Architecture New York City set. This 1,465-piece kit turns into a nocturnal scene set against a literal Big Apple backdrop, and features iconic locations including Central Park, the Empire State Building, the Met, and the enticing promise of a further Easter Egg to find.
I also spotted a soccer legend immortalized in bricks ahead of this summer's World Cup, and a whimsical new woodland Lego Botanical. Scroll down for a closer look at all of these, plus more new sets for summer 2026...
