LEGO Halloween Decorations 40872, 40873, 40883: Pumpkin Lantern, Colorful Lantern, and Skull Candle

A batch of new Halloween items has arrived on the LEGO seasonal decoration side. Based on LEGO’s U.S. official product pages and reports from The Brick Fan and Brick Fanatics, the Halloween Pumpkin Lantern 40872, Colorful Lantern 40873, and Halloween Skull Candle 40883 sets have been confirmed. This group is centered less on character IP and more on decorative use for a room, desk, or window area, making it a good fit for readers who see LEGO as a “build and display” hobby item.

40872 is a glowing pumpkin lantern, and the most Halloween-like set of the group

40872 Halloween Pumpkin Lantern is marked for ages 9 and up, has 323 pieces, and is officially listed in the U.S. at $29.99. LEGO’s product description highlights a light brick that can be switched on by pressing near the pumpkin stem, along with a spider and a glow-in-the-dark ghost minifigure.

Among the three products, this one gives the most immediate impression of a “Halloween decoration.” Placing just one by an entryway, window, or shelf can bring in a seasonal mood, and the fact that it does not rot or need to be thrown away like a real jack-o’-lantern is also a very LEGO-like advantage.

40873 has wider use as colorful decor rather than only Halloween decor

40873 Colorful Lantern is marked for ages 10 and up, has 286 pieces, and is officially listed in the U.S. at $19.99. The product description puts forward its green, magenta, orange, and yellow color tones, swinging tassel decorations, and its nature as a decorative set families can build together.

The important difference, as LEGO’s own description notes, is that this set does not actually light up. So if you want a lighting effect, 40872 is the better fit, while 40873 feels more natural if you want a colorful hanging decoration or festive-style accent piece.

40883 is a darker skull candle at the smaller price point

40883 Halloween Skull Candle is marked for ages 9 and up, has 204 pieces, and is officially listed in the U.S. at $19.99. The product description introduces details such as a gold tooth, glow-in-the-dark eyes, a spiderweb, a spider, and a poison bottle.

This set is closer to a smaller display item than the pumpkin lantern. It is easy to use as a dark seasonal decoration on one side of a desk or beside a monitor, and even outside Halloween season, it can stay out if you like a gothic or witchy prop mood.

The choice between the sets comes down to light, color, and mood

Looking only at the numbers, 40872 has 323 pieces and is listed at $29.99, 40873 has 286 pieces and is listed at $19.99, and 40883 has 204 pieces and is listed at $19.99. The biggest difference is less the piece count and more where the finished model will be placed.

Think of 40872 for light and a centerpiece decoration, 40873 for a colorful hanging accent, and 40883 for a small, dark desk display, and the choice becomes easier. Collecting all three sets would create a seasonal display shelf, but if you pick just one, it is worth thinking first about your room’s mood and storage space.

Korea pricing and local release markings still need to be checked again

What has been firmly confirmed in this check is the product names, prices, and product descriptions on LEGO’s U.S. official product pages, along with July 2 reports from LEGO specialist media. LEGO Korea’s official pricing, local sales start date, and local stock markings were not separately fixed within this run.

So for readers in Korea, the best approach at this stage is to first decide “which type of decoration to wait for,” then check LEGO Korea or domestic retailers for local pricing and stock status before actually buying. Even so, the official product images are plentiful and each set’s role is clear, so this is already worth reading as hobby news for browsing, waiting, and wish-listing.
