In addition to the two sets, numbered 76780 and 76781, from the American horror-comedy series "Wednesday," Danish toy company LEGO also has a new "Wednesday" themed release for its "BrickHeadz" series, known for its big-headed, chibi-style reinterpretations of characters. This new set, numbered 40750, is "Wednesday & Enid"! It is scheduled for release on October 1, 2024, with a suggested retail price of US$19.99.
"Wednesday," adapted from "The Addams Family" and starring Jenna Ortega, tells the story of the dark Addams family daughter, Wednesday Addams. After unleashing piranhas in a swimming pool to attack bullies who tormented her brother, she is expelled from her regular high school. She is then transferred to Nevermore Academy, a school for outcasts and unique individuals. Initially determined to escape Nevermore Academy, Wednesday finds herself embroiled in a series of monstrous murders and decides to uncover the culprit, all while navigating her perplexing school life and exploring her developing special abilities.
This set contains a total of 239 pieces. Following the series' signature style, Wednesday and her werewolf roommate Enid are transformed into big-headed brick-built figures. Once assembled, they stand 8 cm tall. The set faithfully recreates Wednesday's black dress with its striking white collar, and Enid's colorful sweater and blonde hair. Both characters' hair constructions utilize various curved and sloped pieces to define their shapes, and Enid's highlights are also well-represented. However, this editor personally feels that Enid's outfit might have been more recognizable if it had featured her Nevermore Academy uniform.
