LEGO PlayStation Set Recreates Original Console With Gran Turismo and Ape Escape Dioramas
LEGO Japan announced on September 3, 2026 that general sales of the LEGO PlayStation begin October 4. The set recreates the first-generation PlayStation's gray body silhouette and controller using 1,911 LEGO pieces. When complete, it measures approximately 6 cm high by 26 cm wide by 19 cm deep, nearly the size of the actual console. The controller connects to the main unit, and the Open and Power buttons are functional and can be pressed. The central gimmick is a diorama revealed when the console opens. Two scenes are available: a miniature course from the 1997 racing game Gran Turismo and a scene from the 1999 game Ape Escape, complete with the red and blue monkey helmets. These dioramas store inside the console or can be removed for separate display. The set is priced at 27,980 yen including tax and is recommended for ages 18 and up. LEGO Insiders members can purchase early starting October 1. Retail locations include the official LEGO online store, LEGO stores nationwide, the Benelic LEGO Store Rakuten Market shop, and LEGOLAND Japan Resort locations.
