LEGO 40226 Birthday Buddy Details Found

New instructions added to the Customer Service section of the LEGO website reveal a new set – this wacky new character, 40226 Birthday Buddy. It is typical of LEGO Store exclusive sets in terms of size and unique style.

The anthropomorphic chocolate cupcake features big eyes and holds a ‘Happy Birthday’ flag – these pieces are all stickered rather than printed. The instructions can be found at the LEGO website here.

40153 Birthday Table Decoration is the current LEGO Store exclusive birthday exclusive set, whether this newly uncovered set sits alongside it or replaces it remains to be seen.
