How Was Lego’s ‘Twilight’ Set Created?
Lego’s Twilight set was created by a Lego fan named Nick Micheel, believe it or not. The Lego enthusiast sent in his application for the toy company’s Ideas program. The creative program was first launched in 2023, through the collaboration of Lionsgate and Lego, according to Decider. Nick’s submission got more than 10,000 votes online, which made him the winner of the unique contest.
Nick shared the inspiration behind his concept with Lego Ideas: “I just thought it would be so funny to translate this movie and these characters into LEGO form. I am a huge fan of the LEGO Batman Movie and how it demonstrates a masterful ability to infuse humor into otherwise melodramatic themes, and I thought that Twilight would work so well in a similar way. Just as with LEGO building, I came out of my Twilight dark age as an adult. However, I was not a Twilight fan as a child. At some point, I started to find myself always suggesting Twilight as a movie option with my wife and our friends, to the point that they knew it was coming every time. My wife and I had a phase where we would watch the movies on repeat to the point where I could recite the film script as easily as reciting Shakespeare.”
