Zootopia LEGO Ideas is a fan-designed building set by 2A2A that reimagines the film's lead characters as large-scale display figures. The 1,444-piece project features brick-built versions of Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps wearing their outfits from the original 2016 animated film. Nick stands 36.4 centimeters tall while Judy measures 32 centimeters, reflecting the characters' relative on-screen proportions. The models use layered construction techniques to recreate details such as Nick's lime-green shirt and Judy's police uniform, while maintaining recognizable character expressions through carefully arranged LEGO elements.
Both figures include articulated features that allow for a range of display poses. Judy has movable ears, head, arms, legs, and feet, while Nick features posable ears, head, arms, and tail. The set also includes accessories inspired by the film, including Judy's carrot-shaped recording pen and Nick's pawpsicle. Two minifigures with custom-printed faces accompany the larger models alongside a collector-style display plaque.
