LEGO Pac-Man Set – Classic Gaming Gets the Brick Treatment
The latest in the brick-built video game series arrives next week – check out this awesome LEGO Pac-Man arcade cabinet!
Pac-Man‘s premise is simple – eat all the dots in the maze and avoid getting dissolved by the ghosts. But not so easy to defeat. The maze game took arcades by storm in 1980, cementing its place in pop culture. The game’s success led to multiple sequels, an endless parade of merch, two TV series, and inspired this chart-topper.

An all-new way to enjoy the game is coming next week. A new detailed LEGO set that recreates the arcade cabinet that mechanically plays the game with a turn of a handle.
“We are always looking for new and exciting ways to bring classic gaming experiences to life. Our team of talented designers worked tirelessly to capture the essence of the beloved PAC-MAN arcade machine in brick form, from PAC-MAN himself to the colourful, maze-like environment he inhabits. Every detail was carefully considered and crafted, resulting in a one-of-a-kind LEGO creation that captures the magic of the original game while adding a playful new twist and a couple of Easter eggs – in true video game style.”
Sven Franic, LEGO Designer
This LEGO replica of the classic arcade cabinet is full of retro details and fun features. It has a 4-way joystick and an illuminated coin slot. The game’s chase between Pac-Man and the ghosts is recreated with a mechanical maze. You can even open the back and display all the mechanisms.
The set also has a 1980s arcade scene to build and display alongside the cabinet. It has a gaming minifig and rotatable PAC-MAN, BLINKY, and CLYDE figures.
