The verdict

This is Bugs caught mid-quip, popping out of his burrow with the carrot practically glued to his paw, and the sculpting genuinely made me grin.

It is a build-and-display piece rather than a playset, and it nails the pose from every angle with no stickers in sight. The catch is that the articulation LEGO advertises does not fully deliver, so temper your expectations there. If you grew up on Looney Tunes and want a shelf character with real personality, it earns its spot.

Best for: Looney Tunes fans who want a characterful display bust, not a poseable toy

The full review

What it is

There is something disarming about seeing Bugs Bunny rendered as a brick bust, ears up, one eyebrow cocked, carrot in paw, looking for all the world like he is about to deliver a punchline. That expression is what got me. LEGO built him emerging from his burrow rather than standing on a base, so the whole thing reads as a moment frozen mid-scene instead of a static statue. The head can turn toward the little bee that comes in the box, the ears are posable, and across nearly 200 steps you assemble the entire sculpt out of bricks with not a single sticker to line up. For a 605-piece seasonal set that came out at 39.99 dollars, it delivers a lot more character than the price and size suggest.

The catch

I will be straight with you about where it stumbles, because it matters. The official description leans hard on words like articulated wrists and fingers you can wrap around the carrot, and reality does not quite match the marketing. Only the left hand actually changes angle. The right one is fixed. And of the fingers, just one folds over that carrot while the other two stay put. If you were picturing a fully poseable figure you can fuss with, that is not what this is, and reviewers flagged the gap between the promise and the result. There is also the matter of the face. Up close, that unblinking stare has been described as looking a touch demonic, and a bit more printed detail around the teeth would have softened it. None of this ruins the set, but it does drop it from a wholehearted rave to a fond, clear-eyed recommendation.

Who it's for

So who should bring him home. If you have a soft spot for Looney Tunes and you want a display piece with actual attitude, one that reads instantly as Bugs from across the room, this is an easy yes and a genuinely fun couple of hours on the table. It also works beautifully as a spring or Easter accent given the bee and the little spring flower tucked in. Who should skip it. Anyone hoping for a play-focused, endlessly poseable figure, and anyone who needs their display characters engineered to a high standard, because the articulation compromises will nag at you. For everyone else, this is a warm, charming little tribute to one of the great cartoon wiseguys.

The parts story

What the build is actually like, and the pieces worth knowing about.

The build itself is more engaging than a 605-piece set has any right to be. Because it is a bust with a rounded head, big cheeks, and those tall ears, a lot of the work is shaping curves out of bricks and getting the angles of the face to land, and it stays interesting right through the roughly 200 steps. There are no stickers at all, which I always appreciate, so every bit of the expression and coloring is built in rather than applied. The burrow base is the part people say could use a touch more edge detailing, but it does its job of framing him as if he has just poked his head out of the ground.

The standout here is not a single rare mold so much as the sculpting work in ordinary elements to nail a cartoon face, the grey and white of the fur, the buck teeth, the pink inner ears, the wide eyes. The carrot is its own small character and gets a real reaction from the community, some love it, some find it odd. For parts value, this is a solid grey and white bulk source with a lot of curved and slope pieces, and at the 39.99 price point the piece count per dollar is reasonable for a licensed display model. Just do not buy it expecting a trove of exotic printed parts, its charm is in the finished sculpt, not the parts bin.

Fun facts

01The set was released on January 1, 2026 as a seasonal Looney Tunes piece, complete with a bee and a spring toy flower that lean it toward an Easter display.
02It is built as a bust emerging from a burrow rather than a full standing figure, and the head can be turned to face the included bee.
03Despite the box promising articulated wrists and fingers that wrap the carrot, only the left hand angles and just one finger actually folds over the carrot.
04The whole model uses no stickers across its nearly 200 building steps, so all of Bugs' detailing is brick-built.
