Iconic PlayStation made of LEGO bricks? A leak reveals details of the premiere

Fans of retro gaming and LEGO bricks have reasons to celebrate. According to the latest reports, even before this year's holidays, a set depicting the legendary first Sony console will hit store shelves. This is another step in the expanding cooperation between the two brands, which previously resulted in, among other things, sets from the Horizon series.

Over 1900 elements and an iconic controller

A leak from a reliable source known as Lego_Minecraft_Goat suggests that the set will consist of exactly 1911 bricks. The package is expected to include a full-size replica of the grey PlayStation 1 console and one controller. The estimated price of the set is around $160 (approximately 650-700 PLN), placing it in the category of sets for adult collectors, alongside the previously released replicas of the NES and Atari 2600.

TechRadar reports that the premiere is planned for December 2026. Although LEGO has not yet officially confirmed these reports, the history of leaks from this source and the increasingly close collaboration between Sony and the Danish company (evident, for instance, in the release of the game LEGO Horizon Adventures) make the project seem highly likely.

Easter eggs and the future of collaboration

Collectors expect that following the example of previous console bundles, LEGO PlayStation will hide numerous "treats" for fans. There is speculation about hidden references to classics such as Crash Bandicoot, Metal Gear Solid, and Final Fantasy VII. Fans are also hoping for interactive elements, such as an opening CD drive flap, although the block construction could pose a significant engineering challenge.

The appearance of the PlayStation console in LEGO's offerings could open the door to further sets based on exclusive Sony brands. The success of the Horizon series in brick form has shown that the potential is enormous, and on players' wishlists already are models from The Last of Us, God of War, and the charming Astro Bot, which fits perfectly with the LEGO aesthetic.
