If you want to expand your Lego collection with more Horizon-themed pieces, you’re in luck.
Following the majestic Tallneck model, Lego and Guerrilla once again join forces and launch a set inspired by Lego Horizon Adventures.
As teased last week, this set is known as Aloy and Varl vs. Shell-Walker and Sawtooth, and comprises much of what you’d expect given the name.
Consisting of 768 pieces, this set features Horizon’s protagonist Aloy and her trusty friend Varl facing off against brick renditions of a Shell-Walker and a Sawtooth. Aloy has her bow and Varl has his spear, with options to change the pieces to allow fire, electric shock, or chill “attacks.”
As for those hostile machines, they both have joints that allow for different poses. The Shell-Walker has posable arms and legs, plus opening claws. This type also has a detachable cargo capsule and energy shield. Meanwhile, the Sawtooth has jaws that open for a big bite, as well as a rotating torso along with a posable neck, head, and legs.
To give you an idea of scale, Lego said Sawtooth is over seven inches tall.
“We are thrilled to bring one of the most beloved gaming franchises to life in physical and digital Lego brick form,” said Kate Bryant, Product Lead, Branded Games at Lego Group, reflecting on this set and Lego Horizon Adventures. “We hope this latest set continues to deliver on our commitment to seamless gaming and allows our fans to expand their favorite games in their own unique way.”
“Lego Horizon Adventures has brought Aloy and the acclaimed Horizon universe to a new audience and we are very pleased with the launch of the title,” added Guerrilla artistic director Roy Postma. “This new set adds to that momentum by allowing players to harness the excitement of the adventures they experience in the game in true Lego style.”
Those interested in purchasing the Aloy and Varl vs. set Shell-Walker and Sawtooth can pre-order now through Lego. It will be available on shelves from March 1 next year priced at £39.99.
As for the Lego Horizon Adventures video game, we recently gave it two out of five stars.
“It’s a decidedly boring type of game, the kind that’s better watched than played, and that does little to bridge the gap between its two main themes,” our own Katharine wrote in Eurogamer’s Lego Horizon Adventures review. “I still don’t know why it exists or who it is for, and there is little evidence to suggest that Guerrilla or Gobo know the answer either.”
