Discovering the LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box: A Limited-Edition Marvel

As part of LEGO’s marketing campaign to spice things up with its next LEGO Ideas offering, the LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box comes in its usual colorful yellow box packaging common to previous GWP sets, hinting at its exclusivity and limited availability.

If you recall, LEGO even teased the appearance of the LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box on its social media pages, and it’s a good thing that it eventually turned out to be an actual LEGO offering.

In D&D lore, the Mimic is a shape-shifting monster that morphs itself into any unassuming object, and in this case, a familiar chest box. It has no particular shape in its original form as it is said to be amorphous. Here’s what its original concept art is believed to look like.

With online aficionados eyeing this treasure, securing your piece early on cannot be overstated as previous LEGO promotional sets suggest a swift disappearance from store shelves.

A Closer Look at What to Expect from the LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box

Featuring a modest 168 pieces and valued at $19.99, the LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box promises a seamless build experience, spanning approximately 10 studs wide by 6 studs deep. As the hinged mouth opens to reveal its intricate interior (including a hinged tongue as well), the set also boasts four printed eyes, adding a touch of mystique and cute horror to its design.

Functionality Beyond the Box

While its petite counterpart accompanies the LEGO Ideas Dungeons & Dragons Red Dragon’s Tale (21348), the larger LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box serves a practical purpose – storing your prized collection of dice. Transitioning seamlessly from a collectible to a functional accessory, this promotional gem enhances your gaming experience with its innovative design.

With anticipation soaring high, LEGO fans who are looking forward to bagging this set and its accompanying freebie should act fast when the clock strikes midnight on April 1. It is reasonable to expect that this treasure will be in high demand and that supplies will dwindle fast.
