LEGO fans and sleuths, take note because the LEGO Icons Sherlock Holmes: Book Nook (10351) has been officially confirmed although the LEGO.com website makes no mention of the set just yet. This is the first time the Sherlock Holmes franchise has been introduced to the LEGO-verse and is an instantly memorable and fun-packed build.
Even so, anticipation was already high after Barnes & Noble teased a Sherlock Holmes minifigure on Instagram this past Sunday, promising full details to follow today – Tuesday, April 29.
Now, the mystery is finally solved and we have caught a glimpse of the full set reveal. The 1,359-piece set will retail for $129.99, with a June 1, 2025 release date. Inspired by the legendary world of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the Book Nook captures the heart of Victorian London and has fittingly chosen 221B Baker Street to play out the story. The set comes with a foldable, display-friendly design that fits neatly between your books.
The Sherlock Holmes: Book Nook (10351) set includes five original minifigures created for this release specifically: Sherlock Holmes, Dr. John Watson, Professor Moriarty, Irene Adler, and a new character, Paige, a young newspaper vendor who brings even more atmosphere to the building.
Among the standout design features is a rotating bookshelf, Holmes’ iconic mantelpiece complete with violin, and an opening marble balcony that reveals the detective’s living quarters. The set also includes a mechanism that lowers a door to spotlight your chosen character. It makes it perfect for dramatic reveals, Moriarty’s wicked grin included.
Sherlock Holmes is decked out with a printed waistcoat and Victorian pocket watch combination, and he is also holding his signature magnifying glass as well as wearing felt cap. Dr. Watson appears in a printed suit with a bowler hat, a cane, and a suitcase.
Irene Adler wears a flowing purple dress and carries an umbrella, face all stern, while Paige has a leather satchel across his chest and holds up the day’s newspaper offering a look into the bustling lives of Victorian England people.
The Sherlock Holmes: Book Nook (10351) is a must-have for both LEGO collectors and fans of classic detective fiction.
