It has been announced today that The LEGO Group and Toei Animation have entered into a new partnership to bring Dragon Ball into the LEGO portfolio with more sets coming in 2027 and in the future. The first set in the lineup is the Dragon Ball: Shenron & Goku (11390) that will be coming in November and there will be more sets to follow next year and beyond. Perhaps we can also see some Dragon Ball Z sets which I think would be more interested in.
The LEGO Group and Toei Animation unite for the first time to summon the epic LEGO® Icons Dragon Ball Shenron & Goku set
• The LEGO Group and Toei Animation announce a new partnership that brings one of anime’s most iconic franchises – Dragon Ball – into LEGO® elements
• The first product from the partnership is unveiled today, with more Dragon Ball sets to follow in 2027
• Inspired by Shenron’s summoning, the model captures Kid Goku on his Kintoun as the Shenron rises from the seven Dragon Balls
• Available for LEGO Insiders Early Access from 1 November, 2026, and for all from 4 November, 2026 via LEGO Stores and LEGO.com/DragonBallBILLUND, DENMARK, 29 SEPTEMBER 2026: A wish has been granted, as the LEGO Group announces a brand-new partnership with Toei Animation, the legendary anime studio behind the iconic Dragon Ball franchise created by Akira Toriyama. Through this collaboration, the LEGO Group will bring the action and adventure of the Dragon Ball universe to the LEGO® portfolio for the very first time this year, with more to come in 2027 and beyond.
To kick off this exciting new partnership, the LEGO Group is unveiling its first LEGO Dragon Ball product: the 1,764-piece LEGO Icons Dragon Ball Shenron & Goku (11390) building set. Builders can recreate the powerful moment Shenron rises from the seven Dragon Balls, with Kid Goku riding his Kintoun at the heart of the scene that celebrates one of anime’s most enduring heroes.
Inspired by the original “Dragon Ball” episodic series, the LEGO design team studied animation frames and classic poses, while experimenting with building techniques and structural solutions to authentically translate Shenron’s distinctive silhouette and scale into LEGO elements. The result is a dramatic display piece that showcases Shenron’s long, looping form, flowing scales and sculpted details.
Kid Goku appears on his Kintoun at the centre of the scene. Builders can detach and reposition the Minifigure to create various storytelling moments, honouring the bond between Goku and Shenron while giving fans the freedom to shape their own story through the model’s display options.
The storytelling continues with a playful tribute to the franchise at the base of the model with seven 2×2 bricks – the seven Dragon Balls – anchoring the scene in the mythology that has shaped generations of Dragon Ball stories. Builders can construct the model with confidence by using the LEGO Builder app, which provides detailed 3D digital instructions to zoom, rotate, and track progress along the way.
Federico Begher, Senior Vice President, Product, Marketing and Development at the LEGO Group, said: “For decades, Dragon Ball has captured the hearts and imaginations of fans around the world, and we’re thrilled to bring this iconic universe into the LEGO portfolio. Together with Toei Animation, we have an incredible opportunity to celebrate the characters and stories that have made Dragon Ball so enduring, while giving fans a new way to experience and build the stories they love. The LEGO Icons Dragon Ball: Shenron & Goku set is just the beginning, and we look forward to seeing how this partnership inspires fans to explore the Dragon Ball universe through LEGO building and creativity.”
Masayuki Endo, President and CEO at Toei Animation Inc., added: “We’re thrilled to bring the world of Akira Toriyama’s Dragon Ball to life with the LEGO Group. Soon, fans around the globe will get to enjoy the iconic characters and epic adventures of Dragon Ball in a whole new way through exciting collaboration. This initial release celebrates the original ‘Dragon Ball’ episodic series – and no Dragon Ball collection will be complete without these LEGO Dragon Ball products.”
For fans of the Dragon Ball franchise, the wish has only just been summoned. The LEGO Group and Toei Animation partnership will continue in 2027, with the two brands continuing to explore the action and adventure of both Dragon Ball in LEGO elements.
