Spice Girls LEGO hits the shelves
By Classic Pop | February 10, 2022
What’s the one thing in the world that you didn’t think you wanted, but actually do? Yes, Spice Girls LEGO!
The new LEGO Brickheadz set comes with mini versions of each Spice Girl, equipped with microphones and stands.
“For the first time,” the press release states, “fans can experience that satisfying ‘click’ when two bricks become one.”
Every detail that gave the girls their iconic style has been faithfully captured in brick, from hairstyles to clothing. Fans will find new leopard print LEGO bricks for Mel B’s eye-catching look, along with Melanie C’s tracksuit and Emma’s famous baby pink dress. Victoria, meanwhile, can be found in her trademark black dress.
Of course, the set would not be complete without Geri’s Union Jack dress. LEGO designers have carefully recreated the famous outfit, which became a lasting symbol of Cool Britannia and made headlines across the world following the girls’ performance of Who Do You Think You Are at the BRIT Awards 25 Years ago.
Talking about how he brought the band to LEGO life, LEGO designer Daniel Squirrell comments: “There are few bands that defined pop culture in the same way the Spice Girls did back in the 1990s, and it’s been such fun bringing the band to life in our BrickHeadz style.
“This is the first time we have created a music band in BrickHeadz form and what we really, really wanted was to capture the essence and nostalgia of the Spice Girls, through their iconic looks. I am delighted with the set and I hope the fans are too.”
The LEGO BrickHeadz Spice Girls set is available from £49.99 from LEGO stores and on Lego.com/Spice-Girls from 1st March 2022. Spice Girls fans can also get their hands on a signed set by entering a sweepstake on LEGO VIP from 1st March. For more details visit www.lego.com/VIP.
