Product images of the LEGO Animal Crossing sets were originally revealed during Gamescom 2024. We now have the box art to go with them and we can see a few extra details and play features. They will be released early 2025 and introduce even more characters into the mix from the hit Nintendo game series. Included in this wave are Celeste, Leif and the Able Sisters. The sets will be available in early 2025.

There will also be exclusive Japanese box art available in Japan, which makes sense, as Nintendo originated in Japan.

Today we have a more substantial set to review, the last one, LEGO Animal Crossing Bunnie’s Outdoor Activities (77047), was great but a little in the small side. Isabelle’s House Visit (77049) comprises of building as well as some sections of landscape and furniture, making for a better finished product.

Read more about what’s included, the build process and what we ultimately think of the set below.

The Box & Contents:

I love the art work on these LEGO Animal Crossing sets, it’s so bright and colourful, with a yellow band down the right hand side and the build itself front and centre on top of an in-game Animal Crossing landscape. Spin the box around and you have a selection of shots that show off the play features, details and more. 

Inside the box you’ll find a separate plate, instruction manual and surprisingly 6 numbered bags. Most bags only hold a small handful of pieces, I’m guessing LEGO wanted to space out and separate the build into more manageable sections rather than the house in one and the outside area in another. This is fine but it means more plastic bags were used which we all know isn’t great, where’s the paper bags?!

The Build:

Bag 1 is purely for two small side builds, a tiny vegetable garden and a simple yet awesome looking little workbench. This is where, in-game, you customise household items when building your dream house. It’s a lot smaller than it’s game counterpart but I must admit it works and looks cute at the same time. It even has a printed 1×2 tile of an Acorn along with some tools and slingshot.

The next few bags build Isabelle’s house, which again is quite simple is construction but looks great. Using mostly white bricks and parts for the walls and nougat colours one for the accents. It sits proudly on green plates first seen in the LEGO Super Mario sets.

As you build up the house you add a door and 2 windows, these can be switched to change the colour, just like in the set we reviewed, LEGO Animal Crossing Bunnie’s Outdoor Activities (77047). For review purposes I stuck both colours in to show you how they looked, see the photo below.

Adding more to the house, including the slopes for the roof panel to sit on and a basic chimney the house is starting to look homely. As the build continues you add a long & thin roof plate that is covered in 1×2 half-circle and tiles, making for a smart looking exterior. More accent nougat colours are added which resemble joists, I really like this style and how simple it is, it just works!

Inside the house we’ve already added some furniture, a cozy looking bed, bedside table, table and stills and more. It definitely looks like a home now fit for an Animal Crossing character. Again they’re simple builds but the design is great, it always impresses me how many beds the LEGO Design Team can come up with.

More outside sections have been added too with a nice look Apple tree, some flowers and a floating gift. Players in-game can shoot these down to get a surprise, it’s good to see it included here in a LEGO set. The finished house does look great and for a set that costs £34.99 it’s not bad value. There is a lot going for it as it’s the cheapest set where a house build is included, most likely making it a go-to set for fans, that and the 2 Minifigure characters bundled inside.

The Minifigures:

Included in the set are 2 cute looking Animal Crossing characters, Isabelle and Fauna. Both have great designs and printed elements, and look just like their on-screen counterparts.

Starting with Isabelle, she sports a green chequered cardigan with a little red bow on the shirt underneath. A small dark blue skirt is included along with short posable legs in the lemon yellow colour, I like the fact that all the Minifigure characters have these short posab legs, great for MOC builds and Minifigure enthusiasts.

Fauna also has a great combination of parts including a printed torso. She comes with a party hat accessory, I think this is because all the sets are telling a story and holding a surprise birthday party for Julien in a different set.

Both have new and unique moulded heads that look just the ones in-game, LEGO have certainly gone all out with this line of sets and rightly so, it’s has a massive fan base and getting it right was key to it’s success which it’s safe to say has done well with most sets here in the UK sold out!

Overall the sets are cute, bright and fun, bringing the world of Animal Crossing to life in LEGO form. Being the cheapest set in the the that comes either a house build, it has proved popular and perhaps the way to go in wave 2 (if there will be one). As value for money goes I think it’s just about right, the cost to part ratio is decent enough and having 2 Minifigures is great, bumping up the character list is always a good thing.

As soon as Mrs Brick Post (my wife) saw these sets she knew she had to have them all, so to kick off her collection we decided to pickup two and give them a go, it’s safe to safe she enjoyed building them both and has allowed me to write this review for LEGO Animal Crossing Bunnie’s Outdoor Activities (77047). So grab a coffee/tea, sit back, relax and enjoy, as I go through the build process and give my verdict. 

The Box & Contents:

The first thing that grabs you is the brightly coloured artwork on the box, with a yellow band running down the right hand side. The set is presented front & centre on top of a scene taken straight out of the Animal Crossing game, the mix of game graphics and LEGO works really well and ties everything together nicely.

On the reverse are more shots of the set and Minifigure, setup in different ways and showing off the brick-built landscape. Inside the box you’ll find the usual things such as an instruction manual and bags, which happen to be paper, they even had smaller paper bags inside!

The Build:

Looking at the box I got the sense that the build experience would be similar to the LEGO Super Mario sets, I wasn’t wrong. You set out putting together small platforms each with different builds on them, one has a couple of trees, another a bright yellow tent and so on, until you’ve pieced together all the separate areas to form in larger one. Being made up of individual platforms means you can rearrange them in almost any way you wished, there is one restriction and that’s the water sections, being slightly smaller than the others it doesn’t quite fit in some scenarios.

Slotting each panel together is simple enough and again takes inspiration from LEGO Super Mario. Using a 2×4 plate you attach them but leaving half of it stuck out and letting thgood old clutch power do the work, lifting the whole thing once built is troublesome but being LEGO it’s easily rectified, just build it and join them again.

Each build is simple enough to make, the trees comprise of a few parts, the tent is basic two large tiles fixed to clip/hinge pieces and the waterfall is a series of blue bricks stacked on top of each other. There’s nothing taxing about the build process at all, so suits the 6+ age rating well.

Popping the sections though does make the overall set look great, arranging them in a way that you like may be the toughest part of the whole build, although you can change it about however and whenever you wanted.

The Minifigure:

Not being too clued-up on the many characters of Animal Crossing, I had to rely on my Wife’s expertise on the subject. Bunnie is a cute and friendly character within the game and LEGO have done a good job in recreating her. From a Minifigure standpoint the head is a unique mould, the printing on the torso is clear and the small posable red legs are a nice addition to the parts pot. 

The head itself is a stunning feat of LEGO-ness, the shape, the mould, the design and how do they get the print onto it and in all the right places?! It’s clever stuff that’s for sure.

Overall the set is good, if you like the modular aspect of LEGO building. I would highly recommend this set and the entire theme to fan’s of the game, regardless if you like LEGO or not, having a physical representation of a game you enjoy is priceless and having it on display whilst playing the game is such a cool concept, I wish LEGO produced more gaming sets!

Thank you for reading this review, we really appreciate your time and support. Keep your eyes on The Brick Post for our next LEGO Animal Crossing set review coming soon.

The small but cute free set is based on Fauna’s House and will be available to make and take in selected UK and European stores. As usually it’ll be over a weekend at slightly different times on each day, Saturday 9th March between 10:00am and 12:00pm and Sunday 10th March between 12:00pm and 14:00pm.

Dates and times may vary in some regions, please check here before making a special trip into your local store. There will be a limited quantity available each day and they’ll be served on a first-come basis. Check out the build below. 

The five upcoming LEGO sets based on the hit Nintendo game Animal Crossing, are now available to pre-order in both the UK and Europe. The fan-base for the game will insane and we expect these sets to be extremely popular and fly off of shelfs, so pre-ordering your copies moght not be a bad idea.

As we shared a couple of weeks ago, there will be unique Japanese  versions featuring the title and box details in Japanese. These will again be popular not just to those in Japan but the world over, a true collectors paradise.

Also, starting tomorrow you’ll be able to bag double points on all purchases, even pre-orders. Another reason to jump on these LEGO Animal Crossing sets now. As an incentive to those in Japan, fans can who pre-order will get a free LEGO Animal Crossing polybag. Check out the sets below.

LEGO Japan and Nintendo have shared images of the very cool looking Japanese packaging for the new LEGO Animal Crossing theme. It makes total sense for LEGO fans in Japan to have these sets in their own language. The boxes will largely remain the same but as you can see from the images below the logo and other set information is presented in Japanese. Usually LEGO packaging is kept the same worldwide, with minor differences here and there to meet certain legal requirements.

The LEGO Animal Crossing sets will be available for pre-order in Japan from 20th January. As an incentive, if you needed one, you’ll get a free LEGO Animal Crossing Maple’s Pumpkin Patch polybag with pre-orders of Isabelle’s House Visit.
