Gillian Anderson in the LEGO X-Files Ad

The world of pop culture just got a massive dose of nostalgia and mystery, thanks to a collaboration between LEGO and one of television’s most enduring icons: The X-Files.

LEGO has officially unveiled a captivating 60-second promotional clip for an upcoming set that brings the eerie atmosphere of the iconic series right onto the building blocks. The advertisement features Emmy Award-winner Gillian Anderson, who masterfully portrays the legendary FBI Special Agent Dana Scully, setting the stage for a truly unforgettable adventure.

In the engaging video, Anderson appears in a scene reminiscent of her famous role, finding herself pulled into an unfolding mystery. The plot kicks off with Scully navigating a hotel setting before being drawn into a bizarre situation involving a mysterious black box—which, in this imaginative scenario, turns out to be filled entirely with LEGO pieces, creating an immersive X-Files experience for builders everywhere.

The resulting set is a masterpiece of design and detail. It features a clever two-layer construction that recreates iconic locations from the series. Builders can recreate both Mulder’s workspace at the FBI and a dramatic forest scene complete with a hovering UFO, all meticulously constructed from bricks.

This extensive 1,478-piece set is packed with character and adventure. It includes eight unique minifigures, bringing key players from the show to life, including Fox Mulder, Dana Scully, Walter Skinner, Mr. X, Alex Krycek, Carl Busch, The Flukeman, and even a grey alien.

For fans ready to dive into the shadows of the paranormal, the set is priced at $199.99. Availability details are rolling out soon: members of the LEGO Insiders Early Access program will gain entry starting August 1st, with the rest of the public able to secure their copy starting August 4th.
