Lego just announced its first sets<\/a> inspired by the gaming phenomenon Fortnite<\/em>. These kits draw from iconic characters and vehicles from both the original game and the brick-based spinoff Lego Fortnite<\/em><\/a>, like an ouroboros of corporate synergy.<\/p>\n The baddest of the bunch looks to be the 954-piece Battle Bus kit, which costs $100. This is a brick-based replica of the iconic hot-air balloon on wheels, complete with a removable roof and characters like Meowscles, Raven and Cuddle Team Leader, among others.<\/p>\n The 1,414-piece Peely Bone set looks to appeal to collectors more than kids. It builds into a giant version of the rare Fortnite<\/em> character, who is one-half banana and one-half skeleton. The kit comes with accessories like a pickaxe and paint launcher. This set also costs $100.<\/p>\n The game\u2019s beloved Supply Llama is also getting a kit. This 691-piece set allows fans to build the iconic character and it comes with a whole bunch of themed accessories, including a grappler, Slurp Juice, Slap Juice and more. This set costs $40, which isn\u2019t too bad given the number of pieces involved.<\/p>\n Finally, there\u2019s a teensy Durrr Burger kit, which is aimed squarely at kids. This 193-piece set builds into the aforementioned Fortnite<\/em> landmark (it\u2019s a restaurant in the game.) It even comes with an olive on a toothpick. The kit costs just $15.<\/p>\n All of these sets are available for preorder right now<\/a> straight from Lego, but we have to wait a little bit before they ship. The kits don\u2019t officially release until October 1. In the meantime, there\u2019s a nifty Jaws<\/em>-inspired set coming out in August<\/a> and a massive 2,500-piece set based on The Legend of Zelda that ships on September 1<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
