LEGO® 43279 WALL-E and EVE: A Pixar Love Story in Brick Form – First Look and Why It’s a Must-Have

Ten years. That’s how long LEGO® fans have waited for WALL-E to roll back into our lives in brick form. And this time, he’s not alone. The LEGO® 43279 WALL-E and EVE set is finally here, and it’s bringing along EVE and M-O for a Pixar reunion that’s as heartwarming as the movie itself. If you’re a fan of the little trash-compacting robot who stole our hearts, or if you missed out on the original LEGO® Ideas 21303 WALL-E, this is your moment.

A Decade in the Making: WALL-E Returns

The original LEGO® Ideas WALL-E set was a phenomenon. It was charming, detailed, and quickly became one of the most sought-after LEGO® Pixar sets ever. But let’s be honest: tracking one down today means facing resale prices that could make even a corporate drone wince. So, when LEGO® announced a new version, the collective cheer from fans was loud enough to rival a rocket launch.

This time around, WALL-E is slightly smaller, but don’t let that fool you. The designers have packed just as much personality into this compact model. His eyes still tilt with that signature curiosity, his treads still look ready to roll through a post-apocalyptic wasteland, and his build is as sturdy as ever. It’s the same WALL-E we love, just optimized for a new generation of builders.

EVE and M-O: The Perfect Pixar Trio

What makes 43279 WALL-E and EVE truly special is the inclusion of EVE and M-O. EVE, the sleek, floating Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator, is a brilliant addition. Her smooth, white design contrasts beautifully with WALL-E’s weathered, boxy aesthetic. And M-O, the tiny, obsessive Microbe-Obliterator, is the cherry on top. Together, they recreate one of Pixar’s most iconic trios in LEGO® form.

For those who adore the film, this set is a dream. It’s not just about building; it’s about reliving the story. Place WALL-E next to EVE, and you can almost hear the soft beeps of their first encounter. Add M-O into the mix, and suddenly, your shelf isn’t just displaying a LEGO® set, it’s hosting a scene straight out of the movie.

Why This Set Is Built for Fans

Let’s talk practicality. The original LEGO® Ideas WALL-E was a masterpiece, but its size and price made it a luxury for many. This new set scales things down just enough to make it accessible without sacrificing the charm. At €69.99 (US$76.00 / AU$118.00 / £62.00 / 520 DKK / 780 SEK / 320 PLN / R$390), it’s a steal compared to the aftermarket prices of its predecessor. Plus, you’re getting three characters for the price of one iconic robot.

And let’s not forget the LEGO® building experience itself. The set is designed to be engaging for builders of all ages. Whether you’re a seasoned LEGO® enthusiast or introducing a young fan to the joys of brick-building, this set delivers. The instructions are clear, the pieces are high-quality, and the final result is undeniably display-worthy.

Pre-Order Now or Risk Missing Out

If history is any indication, this set will fly off the shelves faster than EVE on a mission. Pre-orders are already live on Amazon.com for US buyers, and the official release is just around the corner on September 1, 2025. Given the hype, it’s safe to say this won’t stick around for long.

So, if you’ve been waiting for a chance to own a piece of Pixar magic, or if you’re looking to introduce a new generation to the wonders of LEGO® and WALL-E, now’s the time to act. After all, as we like to say at Brick News, some sets aren’t just built for fun.
