14 DAY TRIAL // The new range of Minecraft-themed Lego products has been spotted online for the first time, showing what AFOLs and Minecraft enthusiasts all around the world can look forward to.
The image and set descriptions were posted by The Brick Fan, detailing for the first time ever what the proper size Lego sets will look like.
This isn't the first time that Minecraft developer Mojang and the Danish toy company team up to make some video game-related products, but previous Minecraft sets were on the "micro" scale, with each block and character shrunk down compared to the regular size of Lego mini figures.
If you want to see the former Minecraft lego sets, you can do so by visiting the appropriate Lego store page.
The upcoming sets will launch the company's Minecraft-themed line of products, coming in full scale, and offering full-scale Lego minifigs for the first time.
The first two sets unveiled are titled The Cave and The Farm, and both feature Steve, the game's generic character, alongside either a Zombie or Skeleton mini-fig, and a couple of animals.
"Venture into The Cave on a dangerous quest for vital resources! Wield the iron pickaxe to dig and battle against hostile zombie and spider mobs. Blast out valuable ores and minerals with the TNT and combine the flowing water and lava to create precious obsidian! When you're done battling and mining, restore your energy levels with the chest of bread."
"Proceed with caution! Rebuild the set for more LEGO Minecraft creations! Includes 2 minifigures with assorted accessories: Steve and a zombie, plus a spider," the description of The Cave (21113) reads on the Hamleys website.
The Farm is also listed, with the accompanying description, as follows: "Yield renewable resources with The Farm! You'll need food to survive, so fence in the livestock and channel the flowing water to nurture the crops. Harvest pumpkins, wheat, sugar cane and carrots."
"Use the crafting table to create a pumpkin helmet or jack-o-lantern. But watch out for the skeleton with his bow and arrow after nightfall! Rebuild the set for more LEGO Minecraft creations or combine with 21115 The First Night and other sets in the series for an even bigger Minecraft adventure! Includes a Steve minifigure with an accessory, plus a skeleton, cow and a sheep."
Future sets will include The First Night, that comes with a creepy Creeper, a larger set titled The Mine, and The Ender Dragon, coming with a huge blocky rendition of the game's final boss.
The initiative was sparked by the Lego Ideas program, formerly known as Lego Cuusoo, which allows fans of the popular brick toys to post their own creations and vote on them, with the most popular candidates eventually finding their way into the official roster of Lego products.
