However, SEGA has not been a part of <a href=\"http:\/\/yankodesign.com\/tag\/lego\">LEGO\u2019s<\/a> scheme of things, that is, until now. The LEGO Group has revealed its first-ever Genesis Console set developed in collaboration with SEGA. This set comes as part of the deluge of Summer 2026 reveals, and retro gaming fans will appreciate owning one.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike the LEGO NES, which was a 1:1 replica of the retro console, this one is a bit scaled down. Perhaps the SEGA console is overshadowed by the sheer number of Nintendo fans, so LEGO decided to keep it smaller and much cheaper at $40. The 479-piece set of the iconic console, also known as the Mega Drive in Japan, Europe and Australia, is coming on 1 June 2026 in online and physical stores.<\/p>\n<p>Designer: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lego.com\/en-us\/product\/sega-genesis-console-40926\">LEGO Group<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Those who grew up playing Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Gunstar Heroes, Alien Soldier, or Streets of Rage will definitely want to show off the 479-piece set on their display shelf or desk setup as a cool prop. The set is one of the easier ones to build and comes with a hidden Sonic portrait that can be put together with the block pieces. Controllers on this one are not the biggest, measuring 3 inches wide, since the LEGO console itself measures around 5 inches high, six inches wide, and 4.5 inches deep. To keep the theme going, LEGO has included a nostalgic game cartridge featuring Sonic and Tails. Of course, the thing cannot play games and is just for the feel of it. The plate around the cartridge-inserting ridge can be removed for a more raw feel, and the controllers can be plugged into the LEGO console\u2019s ports.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, the set is not meant for hardcore LEGO collectors, as the console is not life-sized, nor can it function in any way. For that section of the gaming community, the 1:1 Mega Drive Controller replica is the better option. This one is built for SEGA fans who have always wanted a LEGO version of the Genesis console to bring back old memories. Being a miniature version has its own charm, and the small size means it can be one of your desk props without taking up too much space.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2026\/05\/04\/legos-mini-sega-genesis-kit-lets-you-relive-retro-gaming-nostalgia-right-on-your-work-desk\/\">LEGO\u2019s Mini SEGA Genesis kit lets you relive retro gaming nostalgia right on your work desk<\/a> first appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/\">Yanko Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LEGO has previously shown confidence in gaming console remakes in brick versions, including Game Boy, Atari 2600, and NES.
