0 It’s been a while since we had some cool gaming related LEGO news to gush about. Like our review of the LEGO Fortnite Peely Bone set last month. Ahem. But today, the LEGO Group announced the launch of a new playset based on the recently-released game LEGO Horizon Adventures. This means, that we’ll soon get to enjoy Aloy and Varl adventuring in virtual and physical brick form! As a big fan of the now retired LEGO Horizon Forbidden West: Tallneck set, I am really excited abut this news.
Aloy & Varl vs. Shell-Walker & Sawtooth – Set 77037
This machine-monster toy LEGO gaming set includes two minifigures: Aloy and her loyal ally Varl. Aloy carries a bow and Varl carries a spear. These weapons can be upgraded with small bricks to give the look of fire, chill or shock attacks. Just like in the game! Of course what’s a LEGO Horizon set without buildable robot-creatures?! As the set name gives away, you’ll get to build a Shell-Walker and Sawtooth. The Shell-Walker has posable legs and arms, opening claws, a detachable cargo pod as well as an energy shield. Whilst the fully articulated Sawtooth has opening jaws, a swivelling torso alongside a posable neck, head and legs.

Whilst we have to wait until 1st March 2025 to get hands on with this set, it is available for pre-order from the Lego Store right now. Whilst pre-orders are not guaranteed to arrive on release day, I would seriously consider getting your order in asap. If the Fortnite LEGO sets were anything to go by, this will sell out quickly!
Game Time
The release of this LEGO set follows the launch LEGO Horizon Adventures on 14th November. Co-developed by Guerrilla and Studio Gobo, and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. The game is a playful and light-hearted story inspired by the events of the first chapter in the Horizon series. Players will come face-to-face with the game’s awe-inspiring machines – all faithfully recreated in digital LEGO brick form. And if that wasn’t enough, there’s plenty of customisation options for players to explore, including unique LEGO buildings, ornaments and outfits.
“We’re delighted to bring one of gaming’s most beloved franchises to life in both physical and digital LEGO brick form,” said Kate Bryant, Product Lead, Branded Games at the LEGO Group. “We hope this latest set continues to fulfil our commitment to seamless play and empowers our fans to expand on their favourite games in their own, unique way.”
“LEGO Horizon Adventures has brought Aloy and the acclaimed Horizon universe to a new audience and we’ve been very pleased with the title’s launch,” said Roy Postma, Art Director, Guerrilla. “This new set adds to that momentum by enabling players to build on the excitement of the adventures they experience in the game in true LEGO fashion.”
