The LEGO Group has unveiled its latest LEGO Icons set, a fully-playable pinball machine decorated with Classic Space graphics.
11374 Arcade Pinball Machine arrives in July and completes the light blue Classic Space astronaut for the first time, while also introducing a corresponding light blue baby astronaut figure. Those will be the main draws for Classic Space fans, but there’s much more to explore here – not least a fully-functional pinball machine that apparently plays just like the real thing.
11374 Arcade Pinball Machine
Price: £189.99 / $229.99 / €209.99 Pieces: 2,274 Release date: July 1, 2026
Serving up a tabletop pinball machine constructed from nearly 2,300 pieces, 11374 Arcade Pinball Machine incorporates a spring-powered launcher, two flippers and spinning bumpers – or all the ingredients for a working pinball machine.
What’s really impressive here, though – at least on paper – is the mission built into the LEGO Icons model. Hit the asteroid target and you’ll nudge the light blue Classic Space astronaut along a track on the machine’s backboard, nudging it ever-closer to its space baby counterpart.
Hit it enough times and the pair will reunite, completing the mission. You can then reset the progress bar to start all over again. It’s a neat idea in lieu of an actual digital scoreboard, leaning instead into the mechanical potential of LEGO elements (expect a fair bit of Technic under the hood here).
As mentioned, this is the first time either of these Classic Space minifigures have appeared in full in this colour. The air tanks debuted in light blue in last year’s 21359 Italian Riviera and 76300 Arkham Asylum, while the torso popped up in the Build a Minifigure bar in LEGO Stores, but we had yet to receive the corresponding helmet – while the baby astronaut is brand new too.
The required pieces for those figures will hopefully pop up on Pick a Brick towards the end of 2026, but 11374 Arcade Pinball Machine looks like a fun way to spend £190 anyway – at least if it lives up to the promises of its functions in person. We’ll let you know very soon, as our review is right around the corner…
11374 Arcade Pinball Machine launches July 1 for LEGO Insiders at LEGO.com and in LEGO Stores, before going on sale to everyone on July 4.
