In celebration of Xbox’s 25th anniversary, Mattel Brick Shop has announced a new LEGO-like building kit for a display model of Microsoft’s original Xbox game console. Once assembled, this 3,509-piece set turns into a 1:1 scale model of the device. It includes the console, a hefty full-size Duke controller, and hidden dioramas for three major Xbox games. It looks great, and it’s available for preorder now (see it at Best Buy), with a price tag of $329.99 and a release date of October 1. However, it has already sold out at Amazon, so you may want to buy it sooner than later if you're interested.

Mattel Brick Shop - Microsoft Original Xbox

The console itself looks pretty much just like an original Xbox from 2001. Like like the LEGO Game Boy, the hefty Duke controller has buttons you can press – and when you press them, it triggers interactive lights and sounds in the dioramas hidden inside the console. According to the press release, “Fans can also discover a hidden button combination that triggers an exclusive lighting sequence.” Pretty cool.

The dioramas are worth calling out specifically. Tucked under panels in the console itself are little scenes from three popular Xbox games: Halo: Combat Evolved, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, and Psychonauts. (Yes, it's ironic that this is coming out after Microsoft has spun off Psychonauts developer Double Fine Productions). You can keep the dioramas hidden, or you can remove them to display alongside the set.

Additionally, the set comes with 12 “NanoWorld” figures from the games, including Halo’s Master Chief, Psychonauts’ Razputin Aquato, and more.

What Is Mattel Brick Shop?

Formerly known as Mega Bloks, Mattel Brick Shop launched in 2025 as a line of buildable models that come in pieces for you to put together. If that sounds familiar, yes, they’re very similar to LEGO sets. But if the world is big enough for both Coke and Pepsi to co-exist, why not two competing lines of buildable models?

One difference between the two companies is that they’ve courted different brand licenses. LEGO has the likes of Nintendo, Pokémon, Star Wars, and Harry Potter. Mattel, the newer of the two lines, has Masters of the Universe, Hot Wheels, and Xbox. If you’re interested, you can find more Mattel Brick Shop sets here.
