A 1,650-piece Galloping Horse Canvas anchors LEGO’s new Lunar New Year lineup, and JaysBrickBlog called it “the standout set of course,” noting its four galloping horses and a mechanical function that makes the horses gallop when a crank is turned. Yahoo Shopping lists that Galloping Horse Canvas at $110, and Stylecaster and Yahoo frame the trio of new sets as arriving for builders beginning February 17, 2026, with pre-orders already open in certain regions, according to JaysBrickBlog.

The second marquee release is 80118, variously named Fortune Firecracker or LEGO Spring Festival Fortune Firecracker. JaysBrickBlog lists the set at 1,039 pieces and reports it “features a decorative wall art Firecracker, which is able to make a crackling sound when activated, plus the set includes 6 minifigures, including the return of Choy San/Chaisen aka the God of Fortune.” Yahoo Shopping shows that same Firecracker carrying a $90 ask and appearing at Target, Walmart and LEGO storefront listings, making it a showpiece-priced seasonal centerpiece.

For smaller, budget-friendly Lunar New Year gifts, Yahoo Shopping snapshots include 40864 Fortune Master at $30 with a 286-piece count listed by JaysBrickBlog, a LEGO Lucky Cat priced at $30, and a LEGO Festival Calendar at $29. These compact builds pair well with the larger showpieces as stocking-style additions or table accents during Spring Festival celebrations.

SheKnows highlights another festival-themed model, Spring Festival Good Fortune, and describes it as “a 1021 piece set” that “comes with symbols of good fortune including a fan decorated with magpies, a vase of red fruit, a persimmon fruit, three golden ingots and a calligraphy pen with a scroll.” Yahoo Shopping shows a Good Fortune listing marked down to $53 from an original $90; the two sources provide those explicit figures without a unified piece-count confirmation, so both price and the SheKnows piece-count details stand as reported.

Floral builders will want to note JaysBrickBlog’s first look at the 2026 LEGO Botanicals 11501 Tulip Bouquet. JBB lists 11501 Tulip Bouquet at 576 pieces and describes five varieties of tulips in different colours and stages of bloom, while Yahoo Shopping lists the Tulip Bouquet at $60 and also includes Botanicals pre-orders for a Sunflower Bouquet at $60, a Peace Lily at $50 and a Flowering Cactus at $35.

Collectors and Ninjago fans get their moment in 71858 Four Weapons Blacksmith. JaysBrickBlog places the set at 1,259 pieces and frames it as the first appearance of Nya and Kai’s home plus an Elemental Master of Earth to mark Ninjago’s 15th anniversary. IDisplayIt adds structural detail: “With this set, you get a faithful reconstruction of the Four Weapons Blacksmith, with a front that opens to reveal a bedroom and blacksmith's forge, plus six LEGO Minifigures to play with.”

JaysBrickBlog’s roundup also flagged accessory and minifigure notes: a new Blue Milk brick “slightly different” from a previous polybag version, praise for a Cobb Vanth minifigure’s arm and leg prints and a new Cad Bane minifigure. JBB thanked LEGO for a review copy and included a reviewer critique: “The only main gripe is the price – it feels way too small for a US$35 set, especially considering the piece count of around 200,” a comment directed at a specific review embedded in their post rather than any particular Lunar New Year set.

Availability is immediate in marketing terms: Yahoo Shopping and Stylecaster say the three brand-new Lunar New Year sets launch for builders starting February 17, 2026, with JaysBrickBlog noting pre-orders are open in certain regions and offering international pricing and product page links in its full post. For gifting this holiday season, the Galloping Horse Canvas and Fortune Firecracker serve as theatrical centerpieces, the Botanicals and Good Fortune set offer decorative longevity, and the smaller $29–$35 builds make practical, affordable extras for gifting during the Spring Festival.
