The Lego Editions FIFA World Cup Official Trophy Model Kit has reached its lowest price ever at Argos, now selling for £135. The set, which includes 2,842 pieces, is a detailed replica of the 2026 FIFA World Cup Trophy, standing over 36cm high. It features two human figures holding up the Earth, a golden globe, and a plaque, with a secret compartment in the upper globe containing an exclusive minifigure.
Customer Reviews and Reception
The set has received an average rating of 4.8 out of five stars from nearly 30 reviews on Argos. One customer said: "I purchased this two days ago, I can't wait to start building the World Cup trophy." Another reviewer commented: "Outstanding Lego set, and I have quite the collection, this one is up there with the best... Once completed, it's the same size as the real trophy, roughly 36cm tall and is quite heavy so feels great to hold (which you inevitably will!)."
A third shopper added: "I bought this for myself as someone who loves football and its history. Having a World Cup trophy was worth the cost, and it's brilliant! Loved building it, clear instructions, and the fact it's the actual size of the trophy itself is so good."
Alternative Lego Football Sets
For those seeking alternatives, the Lego Football set is available for £99.99, suitable for ages 10 and above. This replica football contains 1,498 pieces and includes a micro stadium celebration scene inside. Another option is the Lego Editions Cristiano Ronaldo - Football Legend Set, priced at £69.99 from Game, which features the Portugal striker in two different poses and is suitable for ages 12 and above.
Criticisms and Considerations
While most reviews are positive, one customer noted: "Losing count of the times my build has collapsed as I struggle to fit large parts to flimsy foundations." Another reviewer wrote: "Bought this as a treat to myself. Well considered by Lego. Really enjoyable build, and a similar likeness to the original. Big and slightly heavy but well detailed and worth the money."
