For decades, LEGO has kept its bricks family-friendly. Now a zombie-filled Sanctum Sanctorum is about to change that, at least a little.

LEGO and Marvel have revealed **Marvel What If…? Doctor Strange Supreme**, a new set arriving on 1 January 2027. On paper it’s a *What If…?* set, which makes sense because Strange Supreme was a fan favorite in the Disney+ series.

But look closer at the minifigures and the zombie vibes are hard to miss.

### What’s in the Box?

The set recreates a battle at the Sanctum Sanctorum, with zombies on one side and living heroes on the other. Six minifigures come included:

- Doctor Strange Supreme
- FRIDAY
- Zombie Hunter Spider-Man
- Red Queen (the zombified Wanda Maximoff)
- Zombie Namor
- Zombie Thor

### Set at a Glance

| Detail | Info |
| --- | --- |
| **Set Name** | Marvel What If…? Doctor Strange Supreme |
| **Release Date** | 1 January 2027 |
| **Price** | $99.99 USD |
| **Piece Count** | 814 |
| **Minifigures** | 6 (Strange Supreme, FRIDAY, Zombie Hunter Spider-Man, Red Queen, Zombie Namor, Zombie Thor) |
| **Scene** | Battle at the Sanctum Sanctorum |
| **Why It’s Historic** | First LEGO Marvel set tied to a TV-MA Disney+ project |

### Why This Is a Big Deal?

Here’s the clever part. A zombie Namor didn’t appear in the original *What If…?* zombies episode. He showed up in ***Marvel Zombies***, which was rated TV-MA for its heavy violence. So the set clearly draws from both.

That makes it LEGO’s first Marvel set based on a TV-MA Disney+ project. It’s also only the second LEGO set from any TV-MA title across all franchises. The first was the Creel House set from *Stranger Things* Season 5.

LEGO has long kept a family-friendly policy, and it has still never made a set based on an R-rated movie. Marketing this one as part of the *What If…?* line looks like a smart way to work around that rule.

### Mature Characters Have Appeared Before

LEGO isn’t entirely new to this territory. It has released minifigures of Deadpool, the Punisher and Daredevil, though those came in sets based on PG-13 or TV-14 titles. It also made an Echo minifigure in her TV-MA series costume.

The difference now is that an entire set is tied to a mature-rated show.

### Our Take

This feels like a test run. If fans respond well, more mature-rated sets could follow. There’s clearly a market for older collectors who grew up with these characters and want something edgier on the shelf.

For $99.99, you get a mid-sized set with a collector-friendly minifigure lineup. If you’re a Strange fan, or just love zombie Marvel, it’s one to watch. To learn how the brand got started, see the [Wikipedia page for LEGO](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lego).
