LEGO’s previous NINJAGO City set is now retiring earlier than planned
As the LEGO Group gears up to launch a new NINJAGO City set, it’s cutting short the shelf life of its previous entry in the series by an entire year.
71837 NINJAGO City Workshops debuts on March 1, and will be one of only two LEGO NINJAGO modular buildings available concurrently alongside 71799 NINJAGO City Markets. That 2023 set was originally scheduled to retire by the end of 2026 – but the LEGO Group has now brought its exit date forward to December 2025, which means you’ve only got until the end of this year to add it to your collection.
That’s bad news for anyone still saving up for the 6,163-piece set, and will likely require a little reshuffling of your budget over the next 12 months if you’re trying to complete your NINJAGO City collection. These sets have settled into a biennial release pattern, which is a little easier on the wallet than the annual Modular Buildings Collection, but retiring them in consecutive years doesn’t really help much.
After all, 71741 NINJAGO City Gardens only retired at the end of 2024 – so if you snapped that one up towards the end of its shelf life, you might have thought you’d have a little more breathing room before picking up the next one. The consolation for NINJAGO fans is that 71814 Tournament Temple City has moved from a 2025 retirement date to 2026, so you’ve got an extra year to buy that one.
Check out all the current LEGO NINJAGO sets organised by their retiring dates in the table below, and keep an eye on Brick Fanatics for updates throughout 2025. If you’ve already caught up on everything you want so far, 71837 NINJAGO City Workshops will be available to purchase from March 1.
