You Can Now Build a LEGO Millennium Pumpkin Ahead of Halloween

The LEGO community has long enjoyed the process of taking a seemingly normal set and turning it into the iconic Star Wars ship.

You Can Now Build a LEGO Millennium Pumpkin Ahead of Halloween

Brick enthusiasts have been transforming ordinary LEGO sets into remarkable replicas, with one fan, Brad Barber, achieving extraordinary feats. Barber, also known as Minute_Food_2881 on Reddit, has crafted 19 alternate builds of the iconic Millennium Falcon. Notably, he gained attention last year for his cursed Millennium Simba set.

His latest creation is a unique rendition of the LEGO Halloween Pumpkin Lantern. This newest build capitalizes on the newly released LEGO Halloween Pumpkin Lantern set from August. Unlike Barber's prior My Own Creations (MOCs), the Millennium Pumpkin not only boasts a spooky appearance but also features a functional light-up element.

The Halloween Pumpkin Lantern set includes a light brick typically activated by pressing its stem. Remarkably, Barber's Millennium Pumpkin remains lit even when placed on its stand. Like Barber's other alternate builds, this version can be assembled using pieces from the original set. Barber's Millennium Falcon version requires instructions available for $3 at Rebrickable, alongside the set itself which costs $29.99 at the LEGO Store.

The LEGO Pumpkin Lantern set is exclusive to the LEGO Store, precluding any gift-with-purchase offers. For further LEGO-related content, follow IGN Finds on various social media platforms including X, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.
