Ten years after Interstellar launched audiences into the fifth dimension, it has now landed on LEGO® Ideas, earning the coveted 10,000-vote milestone. Fan designer KoalaBrick has built a miniature cosmos that folds time, space, and plastic bricks into one breathtaking model. Now, it waits in orbit, under review by LEGO®, for a possible 2026 release.

Building the Fifth Dimension
The tesseract at the heart of the film becomes the centerpiece here. KoalaBrick recreates it with 4,650 LEGO® pieces, rising 49 centimeters tall, and anchored to a base that feels more sculpture than toy. From inside its dimensional geometry, Cooper floats midair, surrounded by fragments of Murph’s room, Miller’s planet, and Mann’s planet, all woven together like folded pages in a cosmic diary.


Where Christopher Nolan used physics to stretch emotion, KoalaBrick uses bricks to compress it. The Gargantua black hole and the Endurance spacecraft orbit the scene like symbols of human persistence, while five minifigures and two robots, Cooper, Brand, Murph, Mann, CASE, and TARS, complete the ensemble.


Why It Resonates
Interstellar was never just about space. It was about the endurance of love across impossible distances, and that’s what this set captures. The idea of Cooper reaching out through time, the emotional pulse that beats inside equations, the connection between science and hope. KoalaBrick’s design crystallizes all of it into something you can touch, rotate, and display.


There’s an irony here: a film about bending time may soon be immortalized in a medium that’s timeless. The LEGO® Interstellar Tesseract is both a diorama and a memory capsule, a plastic echo of one of cinema’s most emotional sci-fi journeys.
What Comes Next
With 10,000 supporters propelling it into review, the model now sits in LEGO®’s hands. The final decision is expected in May-June 2026. Until then, fans can only wait, or build their own wormhole. Because as Interstellar reminds us, love is the one thing that transcends time and space.
