Minions (Despicable Me) are coming in 2020 at LEGO

LEGO definitely takes its role as manufacturer of derivative products very seriously: After the Trolls, we learn today that the Minions seen in the prequel of 2015 and in the saga Despicable Me will join the LEGO catalog in 2020, on the occasion of the film's theatrical release in July 2020 Minions: The Rise of Gru.

A few years ago, it was the Mega Bloks brand that marketed all a series of derivative products from the universe of rather successful Minions. From next year, LEGO will therefore take up the torch with probably a handful of sets based on the upcoming film. I don't think you can envision a range that goes beyond a single wave of a few derivatives, but I could be wrong.

Below, the short teaser posted by LEGO on social networks:
