LEGO Monkie Kid got bigger with new 2023 sets 

As we reported in 2022, LEGO Monkie Kid’s 2023 selection of sets has surpassed its previous waves in terms of piece count. 

LEGO Monkie Kid is officially bigger than ever – at least in terms of set size. The newly revealed summer 2023 range of sets for the original theme includes one of the largest sets yet by piece count. 

The theme’s ever-expanding models have us wondering what the range will be like in a year or two, provided it’s still around then. In the meantime, let’s look at the biggest LEGO Monkie Kid builds to see where the theme has gone so far. 

8 – 80044 Monkie Kid’s Team Hideout 

Price: £89.99 / $139.99 / €99.99 Pieces: 1,582 Year: 2023 

As the lowest set on this list, 80044 Monkie Kid’s Team Hideout is still massive relative to the price and is one of the most recent Monkie Kid models too. 

7 – 80012 Monkey King Warrior Mech 

Price: £114.99 / $149.99 / €129.99 Pieces: 1,629 Year: 2020
