LEGO Reveals Its First Dragon Ball Set: 11390 Shenron & Goku
Dragon Ball has been sitting at the top of LEGO fans' most-wanted licences for years. Today that changed. The LEGO Group has announced a brand-new partnership with Toei Animation - the studio behind the franchise created by Akira Toriyama - and its first Dragon Ball set: 11390 Dragon Ball: Shenron & Goku, revealed on 29th September 2026 and on sale from 1st November.
At 1,764 pieces, it sits in the Icons range, carries an 18+ rating, and is priced at £129.99 / $179.99 / €139.99. It is exclusive to LEGO.com and LEGO Stores, with Insiders Early Access available ahead of the public launch date.
Shenron rises from a base scattered with all seven Dragon Balls in a dramatic coiled pose, with flowing scales and sculpted claws. The finished model measures 32cm tall, 24cm long and 26cm wide - substantial enough to read well on a shelf without overwhelming it.
Kid Goku rides the Kintoun at the heart of the scene, equipped with his Power Pole, Saiyan tail, and a brand-new wig piece designed specifically for those unmistakable spikes. The minifigure detaches so it can be repositioned, and Shenron's head and claws are poseable for different display moments.
Designer Jae Won Lee and the design team studied original animation frames and classic poses from the original Dragon Ball episodic series - not Z or Super - to translate Shenron's long, looping form into bricks. Organic, flowing creatures can look awkward in LEGO form, and Shenron's silhouette is about as far from a straight-edged spaceship as you can get. From what has been shown, the result looks faithful to the source.
At roughly 7.4p per piece, pricing is standard for the Icons range. More Dragon Ball sets are confirmed for 2027 and beyond. Federico Begher, SVP of Product, Marketing and Development at the LEGO Group, described the tie-up as "an incredible opportunity to celebrate the characters and stories that have made Dragon Ball so enduring". Masayuki Endo, President and CEO of Toei Animation Inc., added that "no Dragon Ball collection will be complete without these LEGO Dragon Ball products".
Aimed squarely at adult fans who grew up with the series, 11390 Dragon Ball: Shenron & Goku goes on sale on 1st November 2026. Track prices across retailers on BrickSleuth, or pre-order it at LEGO.com.
