Sony has officially revealed a Lego PlayStation set, recreating the original console in surprisingly interactive detail.
Shown off during the latest State of Play stream, this kit is made up of nearly 2,000 pieces and is a near 1:1 replica of the system that kicked it all off in 1994. It isn’t just a display piece to look at, though; it has ‘working’ buttons, one for power and another that actually opens the disc tray. Rather than a disc, though, the Lego PlayStation is hiding something else under the hood: it contains two dioramas based on a couple of its most iconic games, Gran Turismo and Ape Escape.
Lego PlayStation will be available direct from Lego on October 4 (or October 1 if you’re a member of the free Lego Insider program), but you should also be able to get it via PlayStation as of October 1.
UK: £139.99 at Lego
This 18+ kit is made up of 1,911 pieces, and is almost the exact same size as the original console; it measures over 2.5in (6cm) high, 10.5in (26cm) wide, and 7.5in (19cm) deep. It comes with an attachable controller and two mini dioramas inside.
