Description

The villain's headquarters

This set depicts the headquarters of Lord Business, the antagonist of "The LEGO® Movie" (2014), making it one of the more narratively central builds from the film's first wave of sets. At 738 pieces it's large enough to cover several areas of the lair rather than a single facade. Fans of the film will place the story instantly, though the build also stands on its own for anyone unfamiliar with the plot, working simply as a large, dark display piece.

Black and grey as a show of power

Black, light bluish grey, white and dark bluish grey combine to give a cool, threatening impression that fits the character of the film's villain. That palette sets the lair clearly apart from the brighter, friendlier sets built around the film's heroes in the same wave. With 222 distinct parts, the colour range stays deliberately narrow, which gives the finished building a consistent, imposing look throughout, reinforcing its role as the headquarters of a powerful antagonist.

Seven minifigures for a film scene

With seven minifigures, the Evil Lair is one of the more generously staffed sets in its film line. That's enough to field Lord Business as the leader alongside several henchmen at once, rather than moving a single figure around an empty set. For children keen to re-enact whole scenes from the film, that figure count is far more useful than a set built around just one or two characters facing an empty headquarters.

Parts for dark custom builds

The 222 parts in this set lean heavily on black and grey tones, making them a useful source for dark custom buildings unrelated to the original film scene. The full parts list for 70809 is available on this page, making it easy to check exactly which elements and colours are included – handy for anyone hunting specific black or grey pieces for a separate project or a matching fortress of their own.
