LEGO® Icons Project Hail Mary (11389) Revealed

LEGO® Icons Project Hail Mary (11389) Overview

The LEGO Group has announced the official launch of their new LEGO Icons Project Hail Mary (11389), which is essentially a brand-new display set designed for adults that is inspired by the upcoming science fiction film, Project Hail Mary. The launch of this new product took place in February 2026, which is a rare occurrence for LEGO to delve into new science fiction concepts before the movie, Project Hail Mary, is set to launch in theaters later this month.

Project Hail Mary is well on its way to becoming one of the most discussed LEGO Icons releases in 2026 for Australian LEGO enthusiasts, especially those who love LEGO collections with space themes.

A New Sci-Fi Direction for LEGO Icons

Unlike the long-licensed themes that have lasted years, Project Hail Mary has been adapted from a modern sci-fi story written by Andy Weir. To this end, LEGO is translating the film's interstellar spacecraft into a microscale display model designed just for adults, aged 18 and up, which balances cinematic accuracy with an engaging mechanical feature.

LEGO® Icons Project Hail Mary not a playset but a shelf-ready model for admiration in a home office, study, or a display cabinet.

LEGO Icons Project Hail Mary 11389 Box and Set

What’s in the Box?

The LEGO Icons Project Hail Mary set includes 830 pieces and, although not particularly large, provides a satisfying build experience. In the box, builders can expect to receive:

  • A Microscopic Structure of the Hail Mary Spacecraft Replica

  • A functional display stand

  • A Ryland Grace minifigure

  • A Rocky Figure representing the Alien Engineer in the story

Although compact in design, the set still manages to pack a considerable level of detail and visual impact.

Functional Display with a Unique Twist

One of the standout features of the LEGO Icons Project Hail Mary set is the working centrifugal gravity simulation. This is done by spinning the crew module around the main build via the crank on the display stand, which was depicted in the film as an artificial gravity simulator.

This kinetic feature not only brings novelty but also represents the focus the LEGO organization has placed upon scientific concepts and storytelling accuracy, making the model appear alive when placed on display.

Display Size and Build Details

When completed, the LEGO Icons Project Hail Mary model measures approximately:

  • 30 cm high

  • 25 cm long

  • 22 cm wide

These include display stand dimensions that give the set vertical presence without demanding excessive shelf space-ideal for collectors who want a premium sci-fi centerpiece without committing to a massive build.

The design is for stability and long-term display rather than frequent handling, in line with LEGO Icons' adult-focused philosophy.

Built for Adult Builders

As part of the LEGO Icons range, Project Hail Mary is clearly aimed at experienced builders and collectors. The set supports the LEGO Builder app, allowing users to:

  • View the model in interactive 3D

  • Zoom and rotate during the build

  • Track progress step by step

  • Follow digital instructions with clarity

This ensures the construction process is smoother and even enjoyable, especially for builders who prefer using digital guidance than paper.
