New on the shelf: Set 40872, Halloween Pumpkin Lantern

Set 40872, Halloween Pumpkin Lantern, is new in the catalogue, a smaller 2026 Seasonal (Halloween) piece. That places it mid-size for Seasonal so far this year.

It has not been scored yet, so there is no Stud Score here, and I am not going to guess at one. This is an honest heads-up that the set exists and what the catalogue says about it. When it goes through the rubric, the full review, with the five-axis Stud Score, lands on the site and this note points to it.

If you are weighing it up in the meantime, drop the 323-piece count and the price you are actually seeing into the value calculator to read the parts-to-box ratio, or browse the reviews I have already put in the crate.
