If rumors are true, LEGO could be gearing up to release more Jurassic World sets later this year. The potential sets are expected to be 18+, which is about all the information that's known at the moment. However, this offers more insight than you might first think. LEGO has a long history of 18+ sets, even if dinosaur-focused sets with this rating are seemingly rare. So, LEGO lovers and Jurassic World fans who have been looking for a build set with more challenges could have a good 2026 on the horizon.
Details about the two 2026 LEGO sets are sparse, but the rumors at least come from a trusted source: Brick Fanatics. This site has gained a solid reputation among the LEGO community over the years. It's even officially recognized by the LEGO Ambassador Network, so the group has plenty of insight into the company's plans.
When Are the Two Jurassic World LEGO Sets Expected to Arrive?
- May 2026
- June 2026
LEGO's 2026 plans are already shaping up to be exciting. Between the recent announcement of LEGO Smart Play and the huge number of Harry Potter sets that were just released, LEGO has kicked off the year in a big way. Adding two 18+ Jurassic World sets to the mix brings even more to fans, and its rarity makes it that much more intriguing. Despite the lack of details, it's intriguing that Brick Fanatics claims to at least know the general release target.
What Exactly is an 18+ LEGO Set?
If you're new to the LEGO community, the 18+ rating might bring up ideas of adult themes or violence. This isn't the case with LEGO, though; the 18+ rating is more like a marketing tool. It's essentially just a mark that signals to buyers that it's more of a collector's item than a toy. Also, 18+ LEGO sets tend to be more complex builds. This kind of rating is incredibly common when it comes to sets that are intended as display pieces.
Examples of Sets Found in LEGO's 18+ Category
- 11501 Tulip Bouquet (The Botanical Collection)
- 75440 AT-AT (Star Wars)
- 76466 Sorcerer's Stone - Collector's Edition (Harry Potter)
- 42223 1966 Ford GT40 MKII Race Car
- 10360 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft
- 21342 The Insect Collection
- 21350 Jaws
- 21062 Trevi Fountain
- 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire
When it comes to dinosaur-themed sets, there actually aren't as many found in the 18+ category. Last year, the only dinosaur set featured in that rating was 76968 Dinosaur Fossils: Tyrannosaurus Rex. Even if one has kids and is concerned about seeing the 18+ rating on the package, it's simply a guide. It doesn't actually matter what age someone is. If someone wants to take on a more complex LEGO build, then they're completely free to do so.
What Can Jurassic World's Rumored 18+ Rating Tell Us About the Set?
Even though there's no way to know what the Jurassic World LEGO sets will feature yet, the 18+ label makes it easy to assume that it will be some kind of collector's item meant to be displayed instead of played with. It's possible that the sets could also be quite large. Major movie franchises usually give LEGO an excuse to make massive sets that showcase iconic scenes or settings from an IP. The anticipated LEGO Lord of the Rings: Minas Tirith set is a good example of this.
Depending on the size of the Jurassic World sets, it could also be fairly pricey. The leaked Minas Tirith set is expected to cost around $600-$650 USD, but don't panic just yet. It's unlikely that Jurassic World will be priced that high. The Lord of the Rings tends to draw more collectors, and the claimed size of the Minas Tirith piece count is really uncommon. It would be surprising if Jurassic World had a set of that same scale.
Jurassic World is popular, but The Lord of the Rings' grand fantasy settings make a lot more sense for large, expensive build sets. The dinosaur-focused franchise could still inspire a large set, but it will likely be more on par with LEGO's usual size when it comes to major pop culture icons. Rumored 2026 LEGO sets are continuing to pop up, with a good number of them being centered around beloved franchises. LEGO hasn't officially announced these two Jurassic World sets. However, with last year bringing forth another Jurassic World movie, it would make sense for LEGO to add more to the franchise's roster.
There are currently 10 Jurassic World-branded LEGO sets available to buy.
Jurassic World is Just One of Many Franchises Getting More LEGO Sets in 2026
- Super Mario
- Fortnite
- Animal Crossing
- Disney
- Harry Potter
- Minecraft
- DC
- Marvel
- One Piece
- Pokemon
- Sonic the Hedgehog
- Star Wars
- The Legend of Zelda
- Bluey
All of these sets also come from the word of Brick Fanatics. Some are still rumored, but several have already been confirmed, like DC and much of the Disney lineup. As if 2026 wasn't already stacked enough with Harry Potter LEGO sets, June may bring even more. Major franchises like Marvel, DC, Star Wars, and Pokemon are getting plenty of love with their upcoming sets. Super Mario's rumored 18+ setting is also exciting, since it would add to the roster of great sets within the franchise that hold the same rating. Sets like the 72037 Mario Kart - Mario & Standard Kart and 71426 Piranha Plant are some of the 18+ highlights that are currently available.
So far, it looks like 2026 is going to be a strong year for LEGO. It's important to keep in mind that some of these speculated sets could still turn out to be incorrect, though. Keeping expectations in check is key, but the potential promise of more Jurassic World is exciting. It'll be just as fascinating to find out which Jurassic World movie the sets are based on. It could be the Chris Pratt-led trilogy, but it's just as likely that it could be the most recent installment, Jurassic World Rebirth. Right now, LEGO and Jurassic World fans will just have to wait and see what these sets have in store.
