Here's the LEGO Fortnite Battle Bus set: price, what's included, and release date

LEGO has announced the new Fortnite Battle Bus set with multiple minifigures and accessories, but at a price that is out of reach for most pockets.

After the arrival of the LEGO Fortnite game mode in Fortnite last December 2023, a new LEGO set with minifigures of the cheerful and colorful characters of the video game by Epic Games was missing. Well, said and done: in October 2024 will be available a set of the mythical Battle Bus of Fortnite, with minifigures and many accessories to equip these skins of the game that have come to life in the form of dolls.

LEGO announces new Fortnite-themed set of the game’s Battle Bus

LEGO is already showing off a set of Fortnite’s Battle Bus in its online store, the vehicle from which players start matches in the video game. As such, it is one of the most representative elements of Epic Games’ battle royale, making it a coveted piece for fans of the popular title, which is available on all current platforms. It will be available in stores worldwide from October 1, 2024, at a price of $100.

This is a set of 954 pieces that allow us to build the Fortnite Battle Bus, as well as nine minifigures that represent skins from the game such as Meowscles, Jonesy, Cuddle Team Leader or Adventure Peely. Finally, there are accessories for these minifigures based on in-game items such as pickaxes, a Grappler or Slurp Juice.

As shown in the images, the roof of the bus and hot air balloon can be removed to allow the minifigures to be placed inside and mounted on the driver and passenger seats inside the vehicle.

It is a very peculiar set because, although it is designed for children from ten years old, its price is somewhat prohibitive - although not as much as the double set of The Legend of Zelda - being effectively a premium product in the absence of new Fortnite sets more affordable and with less content with which to initiate the smallest of the house, similar to what happens with the line of LEGO Minecraft products.

Nevertheless, this is an important LEGO set because it is the first set dedicated to Fortnite that includes minifigures from the video game, which is a milestone for the toy brand. Thanks to this, we will be able to use the fun characters from the game with other sets we already have to create our own stories or simply use them as decoration.

More Fortnite LEGO sets coming soon

The Battle Bus is not the only LEGO Fortnite set that will be released. On October 1, 2024, when this set is released, three other new Fortnite-themed LEGO sets will also be available: the Supply Llama, the Durr Burger, and the Peely Bone.

Below is a brief description of each, a link to the LEGO website, and the price:

  • Peely Bone: A set based on the Peely Bone skin from Fortnite. It’s meant to be displayed rather than played with, as it’s roughly a statue with a base with his name on it. It costs $100.
  • Durr Burger: A set based on the Meaty Warlord’s hamburger head, which serves as the mascot/logo for his in-game restaurants. This is a showcase set. It costs $15.
  • Supply Llama: Based on an iconic character from the world of LEGO® Fortnite, this video game llama toy has a moveable head and opening mouth. It costs $40.
