From the time that many of us were young, we enjoyed playing with certain toys. Some of those toys have become such an iconic part of our lives that we continue to collect them when we are older. It really doesn’t matter if you are old or young, when a Lego set comes out that is worthy of your attention, you are going to be the first in line to buy it. In some cases, you may just purchase it as a collector’s item and never open it but in other cases, you can’t wait to tear the box open and put the Lego set together.
If you have a love of spooky movies and Legos, then we have a combination that is going to be perfect for you. Some may have been wondering why a Hocus Pocus Lego set wasn’t out yet, but it was only a matter of time until it became a reality. Amber Veyt was preparing to design a Lego set and send it into Lego ideas, and she decided that a Hocus Pocus set was just what the world needed. She put together the Sanderson sisters cottage and it is just as detailed as you can possibly want it to be.
The 2700 piece Hocus Pocus set includes a number of well-known items from the movie. You will find Billy’s grave; 12 custom-made minifigures, including Winifred Sanderson, Sarah Sanderson, Mary Sanderson, Max Dannison, Dani Dannison, Allison, Emily Binx, Thackery Binx, Binx, Billy Butcherson, Ernie/Ice, and Jay; the iconic Sanderhouse house, and much more.
“I absolutely loved this movie as a kid and never stopped loving it ever since!” Veyt wrote on the LEGO Ideas website. “When I rewatched the movie and saw the Sanderson Sisters’ cottage, a voice in my head said that this cottage would be an awesome LEGO set. Not only for die hard Hocus Pocus-fans but also for the ones that love spooky or haunted houses, Halloween and well — just a bunch of hocus pocus!”
“Green light comes out of the floor and the tiles are shaking,” she explains. “Candles get lit by magic and so does the fireplace, the spellbook opens his eye and then the Sanderson Sisters walk back into their home after 300 years, hungry for childeren — ON TOAST!”
The review phase for this new Lego set will begin on September 8. It’ll take a few months to see if it becomes a reality, but we would be surprised if we didn’t see it in the Lego store soon.
