The LEGO Movie 2 is coming to theaters next month, but the LEGO sets inspired by the movie are already hitting shelves. We've gotten a glimpse at some of the playsets you can find in stores now, but the latest addition is one of the biggest that has ever been created for the LEGO Movie franchise.

In the aftermath of the attack on Bricksburg from the aliens of planet Duplo, the city has now become Apocalypseburg, and the post-apocalyptic, Mad Max-style city comes to life with this awesome playset comprised of over 3,100 pieces, including half of the Statue of Liberty reminiscent of Planet of the Apes. And of course it comes with a whole bunch of minifigures.
