At LEGO Con in June 2022, LEGO revealed two brand new LEGO sets inspired by James Cameron’s Avatar.
If that wasn’t enough, four more sets were announced in July 2022 at the San Diego Comic Con.
The collaboration will be released on October 1st, 2022 to celebrate Avatar: The Way Of The Water, which hits theatres on December 16th, 2022.
Usually, popular films like Avatar that aren’t superhero franchises or pre-planned series such as Harry Potter only receive one wave of LEGO sets.
A recent example of this release method is LEGO’s Minions: Rise Of Gru wave.
It comprised of 7 sets that, while staggered over 12 months, were one cohesive release wave.
But rumors in the LEGO community suggest that the 2022 wave of LEGO Avatar sets will not be the last. Should LEGO fans expect brand new Avatar sets in 2023?

LEGO Avatar 75575
In late August 2022, Brickmerge uploaded LEGO Avatar 75575 to their website.
Though it was the first rumor about the set, fans were instantly excited about LEGO Avatar 75575 because of its affordability.
Brickmerge listed LEGO Avatar 75575 at $24.99. This makes it the cheapest set not only amongst the rumored 2023 LEGO Avatar sets but in the whole LEGO Avatar range.
Another part of Brickmerge’s listing stated January 2023 as the set’s potential release date.
Given that Avatar The Way Of The Water is set to release in December 2022, a January release date would be perfectly timed to allow fans to watch the film and buy the set without worrying about potential spoilers.
Stonewars posted about LEGO Avatar 75575 in their September 13th 2022 report that rounded up all the sets rumored for 2023.
They relayed the same information as Brickmerge but gave the set an estimated piece count of 179 pieces.
In all honesty, such a small piece count compared to other LEGO Avatar sets was expected purely because of its much cheaper retail price. So the rumor of fewer pieces has not swayed the excitement surrounding the set.
It is difficult to speculate what LEGO Avatar 75575 may depict simply because the range has never included a set this size.
The closest set previously was LEGO Avatar 75571 Neytiri & Thanator vs. AMP Suit Quaritch which was $44.99 and consisted of a much larger 560 pieces.
That being said, it is safe to assume that LEGO Avatar 75575 will be modeled after Avatar The Way Of The Water.
LEGO Avatar 75576
Any thoughts about the LEGO Avatar theme continuing into 2023 were only based on fan speculation.
That is until Instagram user 1414falconfan (a LEGO fan who posts potential rumors) made a post on July 28th 2022 about 2 potential LEGO Avatar 2023 sets.
The sets were supposed to be privately listed on Amazon Canada the same day but were accidentally published for the public to see.
As expected, the set listings are now hidden. But 1414falconfan was quick to note down the available information about the sets.
One of the sets was LEGO Avatar 75576.
There was no name given to the set in the Amazon listing. Though it was listed as having 259 pieces.
According to 1414flaconfan, the release date for LEGO Avatar 75576 should be January 1st 2023.
As 1414falconfan pointed out in their post (and then in the comment section), it is possible that the rumored set will have an exclusive LEGO release at the end of 2022 and then be available via Amazon in 2023.
Then in late August 2022, Brickmerge also listed LEGO Avatar 75576.
They echoed some of 1414falconfan’s information, such as the set number and a January 2023 release date.
While Brickmerge was not as sure about the set’s piece count, they did instead price LEGO Avatar 75576 at $34.99.
Stonewars combined the information provided by both the above sources, listing LEGO Avatar 75576 as a 259 piece set for $34.99 to be released in January 2023.
Again, this is one of the cheapest and smallest sets that LEGO would release in their LEGO Avatar range. But hopefully, there will be no compromise on the quality and detail of the set.
LEGO Avatar 75578
The second set that was supposedly listed on Amazon Canada was LEGO Avatar 75578.
According to 1414falconfan, this second set will also be released on January 1st 2023. But as discussed, there is the possibility that the set will be available in LEGO stores and at LEGO.com before it becomes available elsewhere.
LEGO Avatar 75578 is thought to be significantly bigger than LEGO Avatar 75576 at 528 pieces. At least, that is what both 1414falconfan and Stonewars have suggested.
This makes it the closest set in size to LEGO Avatar 75571 Neytiri & Thanator vs. AMP Suit Quaritch, which is the cheapest LEGO Avatar currently with an official confirmation, set to be released in October 2022.
However, Brickmerge’s August 2022 listing of LEGO Avatar 75578 gives the set a much heftier price tag at $79.99.
The images released by LEGO of the 2022 set show a lot of action, depicting a pivotal battle straight from the first Avatar film.
LEGO Avatar 75571 will include 2 minifigures, a few scenery builds (with glow-in-the-dark pieces), and 2 main builds. These will be a robot-like suit and a Na-vi Thanator.
It is unclear why LEGO Avatar 75578 is rumored to be much more expensive than the anticipated October 2022 release.
Nevertheless, fans hope the much higher retail price will mean a set with just as many builds and details as LEGO Avatar 75578.
LEGO Avatar 75579
The fourth and final LEGO Avatar rumored for 2023 so far also happens to be the biggest and most expensive set in the lie up.
LEGO Avatar 75579 was first uploaded by Brickmerge for $99.99. This is the kind of retail price fans expect from the LEGO Avatar range.
Like all of the other sets rumored for 2023, LEGO Avatar 75579 is thought to be released in January 2023.
Stonewars expect LEGO Avatar 75579 to consist of 761 pieces.
Admittedly, this piece count is fairly average for a $99.99 LEGO set. But compared to LEGO Avatar 75573 Floating Mountains: Site 26 & RDA Samson, which also retailed for $99.99 in July 2022, the LEGO Avatar 75579 is lacking.
The 2022 LEGO Avatar release was a 887 piece set with 5 minifigures (2 of which were Na’vi minifigures) and a Na’vi Direhorse (Pa’li) figure.
Visually, the set was very cohesive, mixing both the human and Na’vi aesthetics displayed elsewhere in the LEGO Avatar range.
It would be unfair to suggest that LEGO Avatar 75579 would fail to do the same simply because it has fewer pieces. But 126 fewer pieces is a big difference when it comes to set details.
Until the full name of LEGO Avatar 75579 is revealed, fans will not know the set will be worth $99.99.
LEGO Avatar 75577
Keen-eyed fans will have noticed the lack of a LEGO Avatar 75577 in the 2023 lineup of rumored releases.
It is not unheard of for LEGO to skip out on set numbers completely when releasing new waves of a range. However, it is uncommon.
As Avatar The Way Of The Water’s release date gets closer, there may potentially be rumors about LEGO Avatar 75577 to look out for.
