BELLE THE SINGING DOG JOINS LEGO ANIMAL CROSSING

LEGO is set to release new Animal Crossing: New Horizons sets, introducing fan-favorite K.K. Slider in Lego form. The collection expands upon the already launched Animal Crossing series, which sold rapidly despite mixed feedback. The anticipated sets include the town hall featuring Isabelle, Audie, and K.K. Slider, capturing the essence of the popular Nintendo Switch game. In contrast to the town hall's façade-oriented design, the other set presents a Dodo Airlines airport with minifigs of Wilbur and Tangy, enticing fans with its adorable, yet simple portrayal of the game's elements.

These collectibles emphasize key characters from the Animal Crossing universe, appealing to the sentimental and collector audience. Scheduled for release on August 1, fans are curious about the pricing, which has yet to be revealed by LEGO. Regardless, the excitement around LEGO's expansion of Animal Crossing merchandise suggests these new sets might experience a sell-out trend, following the footsteps of their predecessors.

The new LEGO Animal Crossing sets, featuring K.K. Slider and others, are slated for release on August 1.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons, the game these LEGO sets are based on, is a social simulation video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch. It's the fifth main series title in the Animal Crossing series and was released in March 2020. In this game, players move to a deserted island and have the freedom to explore, create, and customize their island paradise. K.K. Slider, the character getting his own LEGO set, is a virtual musician who plays a variety of songs for the player and has been a staple character throughout the Animal Crossing series.
