Fans Call For D&D LEGO Sets (& It Makes a Lot of Sense)

Fans of both Dungeons and Dragons and LEGO are calling for the two intellectual properties to join forces to make official sets, prompted by one Redditor. The brick-based toy company has made many sets for various franchises throughout the years, with recent new additions including a Horizon Forbidden West LEGO set, and rumors of Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order releases coming soon.

While there is a lot that is left up to the imagination for most playing a table-top RPG, Dungeons and Dragons offers a variety of sets that can sometimes include elements of visual representation for a party's adventure. If desired, game masters and players alike can get their hands on surprisingly detailed miniature figures that represent their characters, as well as maps and model structures that can be used to actually show a given environment. There are a variety of brands that supply these resources, however, D&D fans are now calling for one of the largest and most recognizable toy brands to join in.
