LEGO Releases First KPop Demon Hunters Set with Derpy Tiger and Sussie Bird
LEGO has introduced its inaugural toy set themed around the KPop Demon Hunters franchise, launching with product number 72537 for $69.99. The collection comprises 825 components and centres on constructing a blue tiger character alongside a bird companion, complete with accessories like handwritten correspondence and a removable tongue feature. The set also incorporates a hidden compartment within the tiger figure for storing smaller pieces.
The release arrives around the one-year milestone of the original film, marking a strategic move by LEGO following Netflix's earlier underestimation of the franchise's reach. The streaming platform had anticipated a limited audience and consequently overlooked securing comprehensive merchandise partnerships. Since the property unexpectedly achieved significant international success, Netflix has been working to expand its licensing agreements with toy manufacturers.
