LEGO Unveils ‘The X-Files’ Set, Complete with Mulder and Scully Minifigures

The 1,478-piece set includes eight minifigures and detailed scenes from the series, and Gillian Anderson says becoming a minifigure ranks among her best career moments.

  • LEGO announced a new 1,478-piece 'The X-Files' set featuring minifigures of Agent Fox Mulder and Agent Dana Scully, launching for LEGO Insiders on August 1 and general release on August 4.
  • Australian fan designer Brent Waller conceived the build, which won the LEGO Ideas '90s Nostalgia Challenge after receiving 10,000 votes and includes Agent Mulder's office with a hovering UFO.
  • Gillian Anderson, who played Scully, partnered with LEGO to reveal the set, calling her minifigure form 'surreal and oddly delightful' while praising details like pencils in the office ceiling.
  • Customers purchasing between August 1 and August 10 receive a 221-piece bonus gift, 'The X-Files: Scully's Lab,' while the full set includes eight minifigures including The Flukeman and Cigarette Smoking Man.
  • Anderson reflected on the 'Scully effect,' noting how the show encouraged women to pursue STEM careers, as the set continues the show's cultural relevance decades after its 1993 debut.
