About LEGO Seasonal Chinese New Year
The Chinese zodiac consists of twelve animals – rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. This cycle repeats every twelve years. Starting in 2013, the LEGO Group added a number of sets to celebrate the Chinese New Year, with each set depicting an animal represented in the Chinese zodiac.
2021 LEGO Sets
In 2021, LEGO continued its expansion and innovation, introducing new digital-physical hybrid experiences while reinforcing its commitment to sustainability. One of the most notable additions was LEGO VIDIYO, a collaboration with Universal Music Group, designed to let users create digital music videos using augmented reality (AR) and LEGO BeatBits. The theme blended physical collectible minifigures with app-based interaction, but despite its unique concept, it was short-lived and later discontinued due to low engagement.
