What is LEGO doing in Shrek's swamp???
Shrek is officially getting the brick treatment. The first-ever LEGO Shrek sets are available for preorder now, with both sets scheduled to arrive June 1, just a couple weeks after the 25th anniversary of the movie's debut in theaters. LEGO has two Shrek sets to celebrate: one with Shrek, Donkey and Puss in Boots in the swamp, and a smaller BrickHeadz set that allows you to build mini stylized versions of Shrek, Donkey and Gingy.
In this article: LEGO Shrek, Donkey & Puss in Boots, LEGO Shrek, Donkey & Gingy Figures and LEGO Despicable Me 4 Brick-Built Gru and Minions Figure
If Shrek isn't your thing (or you want to brush up on your LEGO skills before the launch), you can also explore other classic, nostalgia-inducing LEGO sets further down, from a life-size Gameboy to scenes from other beloved movies.

LEGO Shrek, Donkey & Puss in Boots
This is the showpiece Shrek set, with over 1,400 pieces that turn into a posable brick-built Shrek and Donkey, plus a Puss in Boots minifigure, a swamp base and the classic “Beware Ogre!” sign. Look for hidden details from the movie, like an onion and other Easter eggs.
LEGO Shrek, Donkey & Gingy Figures
If you want one of the first Shrek LEGO sets without committing to the size (and price tag) of the full display set, this 259-piece BrickHeadz pack is for you. It lets you build Shrek, Donkey and Gingy, complete with movie-inspired details and Easter eggs.
LEGO Despicable Me 4 Brick-Built Gru and Minions Figure
This set turns into a large Gru with jointed, poseable arms, hands and fingers, plus five Minions with accessories. But the real fun is how the whole set is interactive — moveable gears make the Minions dance around Gru, just like in the movie.
