Legends of electronic music Daft Punk may be coming to an official LEGO set soon, but the Danish company isn’t ready to make a final announcement yet.
Fans have been clamouring for a LEGO Daft Punk set for years, with fans proposing such a set on the Ideas platform several times. Now it is closer than ever to reality, as the LEGO Group is considering the idea.
LEGO Ideas is a platform where brick devotees can create their own concepts for LEGO sets and share them – and Patrick Harboun did exactly that with his Daft Punk Concert build. It received 10,000 votes from other fans and is now under consideration by the LEGO Group.
The first half 2025 review results are now confirmed, but Daft Punk Concert has not been rejected – it has been put into the Parking Lot for further exploration. That means that it could still be adapted for release as an official LEGO set… or it could be rejected at a later date.

It’s a path that works though, as Downton Abbey was in the Parking Lot but is one of the new sets announced today.
Originally, Patrick designed the builds for the Music To Our Ears! contest, then later decided to submit it to Ideas in the usual way. “This project began in 2020 as a fun father-son collaboration, growing into something epic as we found ourselves needing a creative escape during lockdown,” Patrick writes.
“Both huge Daft Punk fans, this build is a fusion of two passions. I spent my teenage years listening to Homework on my Walkman, while my son’s first favourite baby song was Get Lucky. It felt only natural to blend our love for Daft Punk’s music with our love for LEGO [bricks].”
Daft Punk made a massive impact on electro music between 1993 and 2021, iconic for their robot costumes but revered for their four albums – Homework (1997), Discovery (2001), Human After All (2005) and Random Access Memories (2013). They composed tracks for the Disney movie Tron: Legacy and collaborated with Pharrel Williams. The French duo confounded expectations of genre, pulling together house music, funk, disco, techno, rock and synth-pop.
The Old Man & The Sea and The Golden Girls have also been put into the Parking Lot for further consideration. Six sets have been announced too – E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, Downton Abbey, La Catrina, Ramen, Smurf Village and Go Go Power Rangers! Megazord.
