LEGO designer Bj\u00f6rn Ramant has revealed a giant Derpy Tiger build based on the animated Netflix hit Kpop Demon Hunters<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Ramant shared the full build, which was commissioned by Netflix and LEGO, on his personal LinkedIn<\/a> and Instagram<\/a>. A 90-second timelapse shows the entire building process, from tail to ears, with Ramant reportedly using almost 37,000 total plastic bricks in the final product. <\/p>\n

The giant LEGO Derpy Tiger is now on display<\/a> at LEGO World 2026 while LEGO’s official (and much smaller) Kpop Demon Hunters set happens to be on sale at Amazon<\/a>. <\/p>\n

While Ramant’s post doesn\u2019t reveal exact dimensions, the completed build appears almost as tall as the designer himself. Answering questions in the comments, Ramant explains that the full build took about two and a half months of on and off work. He used almost 37,000 bricks, though clarifies he wasn\u2019t paying for each one – the work was a commission from the LEGO Group and Netflix. <\/p>\n

In the video, Ramant is shown starting with the tail and using four steel rods to support the rest of the build. He builds up layers of the tiger demon\u2019s blue and black fur, finishing with his slightly haunting yellow eyes. Commenters<\/a> were quick to compare the full timelapse to watching a human 3D printer. <\/p>\n

The full build is currently on display at LEGO World 2026<\/a>, taking place at the Jaarbeurs convention center in Utrecht, Netherlands, though October 21. An additional post<\/a> on Ramant’s Instagram shows the build in action, but there\u2019s no word on what will happen to the giant Derpy after the event concludes. <\/p>\n

\"Derpy<\/a><\/p>\n

LEGO Derpy Tiger and Sussie Bird<\/p>\n

4<\/p>\n

Contains 825 pieces, release date is August 1.<\/p>\n

A LEGO Derpy Tiger set<\/a> was released on August 1 and is now available from both Amazon<\/a> and the LEGO Store<\/a>. The set\u2019s list price is $69.99, though Amazon has it discounted down to $56<\/a>, its lowest price ever. The widely available set comes with 825 pieces and includes Sussie the Bird. <\/p>\n

Wes Talbott, a Master Designer who worked on the original LEGO Derpy Tiger set, discussed how the approached capturing Derpy\u2019s chaotic charm in an interview with LEGO<\/a>. The hardest part? Those funky eyes, with Talbott saying \u201cIt took a lot of testing to get both the shape and the angle right.\u201d Ramant seems to have replicated the original team\u2019s eye design in his mega build. <\/p>\n

As of now, Derpy Tiger and Sussie Bird is the only official LEGO set<\/a> based on KPop Demon Hunters. It\u2019s hard to believe that LEGO hasn\u2019t dropped any kind of HUNTR\/X or Saja Boys minifigures, but we\u2019ll likely see more collaborations in the (very long<\/a>) lead-up to the Kpop Demon Hunters sequel<\/a>. <\/p>\n
