Lego's new Smart Brick, announced at CES 2026, is now available for preorder in three Star Wars sets launching March 1st. The Smart Brick is a tiny computer that integrates into builds to add interactive lighting and sounds, featuring LEDs, a speaker, mic, wireless connectivity, and sensors for detecting movements, light, and gestures. It recognizes NFC-enabled Smart Tags and figures to trigger unique effects. The three sets range from $69.99 to $159.99 and include wireless chargers. While not programmable, the Smart Brick can receive updates via mobile app. Reception from fans has been mixed, with some excited about new play opportunities and others concerned about moving away from imagination-based play.
