  "textContent": "Today, SEGA and the LEGO Group revealed the new SEGA Genesis Console LEGO set, which pays homage to SEGA's classic gaming console. The build brings a love of retro gaming by allowing builders to customize their creation into either the Genesis or Mega Drive version, complete with detachable controllers and decorative stickers.\n\n> “Like many others from my generation, I still vividly remember when the SEGA Mega Drive launched - it felt completely out of this world,” said Patrik, Designer at the LEGO Group. “27 years later the love for the console is still going strong - I still play mine! Recreating the intricate details and curves of the console with LEGO elements was an enjoyable challenge, despite its difficulty.”\n>\n> “We feel that this is a building experience that captures both SEGA's heritage of gaming and the playful creativity of LEGO play,” said Alex Gomez, VP, Licensing & Partnerships of SEGA of America, Inc. “The SEGA Genesis holds a special place in the hearts of gamers and represents a defining era in video game history. With this new LEGO set, fans are not only able to relive those nostalgic memories but also actively engage with SEGA's legacy through hands-on creativity.”\n\nThe LEGO SEGA Genesis Console will be available on June 1st, 2026 for £34.99 / €39.99 / $39.99.
