• An Actual Play Show to Celebrate This Collaboration

The LEGO Ideas Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale Set

The LEGO Group unveiled a new LEGO set that celebrates Dungeons & Dragons’ storied history. The LEGO Ideas Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale set has 3,745 pieces and features a tavern with a removable roof, a tower, and a dungeon. An impressive brick red dragon, Cinderhowl, also wraps around the tower to loom overhead.

You’ll also find six minifigures, including an orc rogue, gnome fighter, elf wizard, and dwarf cleric, as well as iconic brick-built monsters, including the beholder, owlbear, and displacer beast.

A LEGO Fan Design

To help create this set, Wizards of the Coast and the LEGO Group created a challenge for fans on the LEGO Ideas platform for Dungeons & Dragons-inspired designs. Over 600 fans submitted their creations for consideration. The winning design was submitted by Lucas Bolt (BoltBuilds), a 32-year-old from Amsterdam. He then worked with the LEGO Design team to bring to life the unique setting found in this new set.

“The Dungeons & Dragons theme combined with my love of history, fantasy and making games, inspired me to create a playable layout with different challenges and routes to explore,” Bolt said. “I had so much fun designing this piece, and it is a real privilege seeing my design developed into a detailed LEGO set to celebrate 50 years of the iconic game."

The cover of the set’s building instructions was also handed over to the LEGO Ideas community and was created by LEGO fan Chris Yu. Inspired by Dungeons & Dragons core values of collaboration, creativity, and adventure, the cover showcases an epic battle between good and evil and is centered around a d20.
