After recently launching a colossal Titanic LEGO piece set, the Danish toy firm is ready to launch a set of the Home Alone house. The 3,955 piece set is a detailed recreation of Kevin McCallister's suburban home from the iconic Home Alone movie.

The set is a part of the LEGO Ideas platform, enabling fans to submit their ideas for product sets for which they receive up to 1% of the royalties. 28-year-old Ukraine native, Alex Storozhuk, pitched the idea for the McCallister house. While the set pieces were designed by Antica Bracanov and Enrique Belmonte Beixer.

LEGO Home Alone house is the most massive set to come out of the Ideas platform to date. The set will also come with five mini-figures, a treehouse, and the iconic burglar's van, amongst other included items.
