The LEGO Wednesday Nevermore Academy Recreates the Series' School

— August 10, 2026 — Pop Culture
The LEGO Wednesday Nevermore Academy transforms the Gothic boarding school from the hit television series into an 890-piece microscale building set for fans aged 10 and up. The model pairs a detailed exterior with an open-back design, revealing interior spaces including the dorm room, principal's office, and music room. A hidden storage drawer is built into the base, providing space for the included characters and accessories when the set is on display.

The release also introduces the first-ever Wednesday Addams minifigure, complete with her signature umbrella, alongside microscale figures of Wednesday and Enid Sinclair. Once assembled, the model measures over 6.5 inches high, 8 inches wide, and 7.5 inches deep, balancing display appeal with interactive play features. The LEGO Wednesday Nevermore Academy building set launches on October 1, 2026.
