LEGO PlayStation set releases October 4 for $179.99. The 1,911- piece model features an opening disc drive, controller ports, and Gran Turismo mockups.

LEGO is releasing a detailed brick-built replica of the original PlayStation console, giving collectors and fans a tangible way to display gaming history on their shelves. This 1,911-piece set captures the iconic aesthetic of the 1990s hardware, allowing owners to recreate the look of a classic living room setup without needing functional electronics. The set targets collectors seeking a decorative tribute to the console that defined the modern gaming era.

Collector model features opening disc drive and game mockups

Model 72306 is designed to replicate the appearance of the original SCPH-1001 console. It features accurate controller ports on the front, memory card slots, and a disc drive that actually opens and closes. LEGO included two small brick-built game cases for Gran Turismo and Ape Escape to sit on top of the console, adding to the authenticity of the display piece.

Building this replica requires assembling 1,911 individual pieces, which provides a substantial construction project for hobbyists. The design prioritizes visual accuracy over playability, focusing on static display elements like the opening disc tray and the specific texture of the original plastic casing. Included game cases allow builders to customize the console top with titles from that generation.

The LEGO PlayStation set is priced at $179.99, which reflects the complexity and piece count of the model. It is scheduled for global release on October 4th, 2024, with pre-orders currently available through the LEGO website. We looked at LEGO Skylines Announced for PS5, Xbox in our earlier Lego coverage, but this set focuses exclusively on the original hardware that began the franchise's legacy.

The release adds to LEGO's line of detailed console replicas. Buyers can expect a static display model that accurately recreates the original PlayStation's form factor and key interface details. The set will be available to purchase starting October 4th for those interested in adding a piece of gaming history to their collection.
