Based on one person building the set for the first time, following the original instructions and using numbered bags where supplied. Includes normal piece-finding and minor adjustments; excludes long breaks, filming, dismantling and modifications. Sources may use different methods. This range is neither a statistical interval nor a limit: your build may take less or more time.

How we estimate times · sources and method

Hinged trunk, furnishings and articulated fingers. The three central durations are model-specific editorial assessments. Planning ranges extend approximately from 65% to 145%, rounded to quarter-hours; they are not measured experience-level averages or guaranteed limits.

Sources do not always specify the builder’s experience. The three experience bands are our editorial assessment, based on the complexity of the set and individual accounts where available.

Dimensioni: quando è chiuso, questo baule di 828 pezzi misura 13 cm di altezza, 23 cm di larghezza e 11 cm di profondità

Approximate assembled-model measurements, not packaging dimensions. Allow extra room for handling, moving parts and the display stand. The comparison uses the measured model’s overall footprint, allows a 90° rotation and does not assess stability or shelf load. Source LEGO ↗ · 2026-10-29

The stories, places and inventions behind your build.

03

A magician behind Thing

Victor Dorobantu’s physical performance is essential to a character that may look mainly like a visual effect.

Read the full story

Romanian magician Victor Dorobantu plays Thing in his first camera role. The character involves physical performance rather than an impersonal visual effect alone. Position, movement and gesture convey intentions without a face, carrying information viewers normally also receive through facial expression.

Netflix Tudum
04

A family connection

Thing is Wednesday’s confidant and helper, maintaining her link to Addams roots.

Read the full story

Tudum describes Thing as Wednesday’s confidant and helper, connecting her with the Addams family. The role extends beyond individual comic or unsettling scenes. A continuing relationship gives the gestures meaning through trust and family history rather than through unusual appearance alone.
