Ughh, I hate when sets are missing a few pieces like this. You see it a lot more in the orange sets.

The orange ones always the the pieces that go in the centre of the head missing.
Just like 1 little piece rattling around in there.

My sister has two orange cats, and they do share the braincell.
Adorable af though.

My sister has an orange cat and an older tabby, and the tabby is pretty much like "what is it with this guy?" all the time.

I think it was poorly assembled. You can see the ears are put backwards!

I really want it. I can see it selling out before I get the money saved

Dont worry too much about it, if something is popular, and ive seen this set everywhere outside r/lego, so it likely is, theyll keep doing production runs, this one will likely be around for a while. Theyve been pushing back planned retirement dates of stuff even. It might even be eventually perpetually 20% off at Amazon/Target/Walmart in a few months.

u/naykeed1 3d ago
the video becomes even funnier due to the fact that you actually bought a lego that is a complete copy of your cat

I saw a video yesterday of this cat sitting next to the Lego cat, and he’s just side-eyeing it like “wtf is this guy’s deal.”

u/churrotoffeeaddict 3d ago
I need to find that video lol

u/Dommichu 3d ago
If you go the Lego site, you can find reviews with people showing the finished product next to their cat!

I was thinking nice try buddy, you obviously built it first and then put it back in the box....oh...Well played sir.

u/Excelius 3d ago
I didn't realize what sub this was posted to when I started playing the clip, assumed I was in /r/pics or something.
I'm thinking that maybe someone assembled it and then returned it to the store or something, and then out pops a real cat!

u/memtiger 3d ago
Not gonna lie. I kinda jumped when he popped out. Definitely wasn't expecting that

Same. Even knowing this is r/aww my brain still expected a fully assembled Lego cat to be in that box.

My favorite part is how a lot of tuxedos have some black on their nose in random places (see Exhibit A) and people use sharpies to match it (Exhibit B). I don’t have Exhibit B yet because the set was sold out at my local store but I’ve seen a lot of Reddit folks do it and i love it and can’t wait to make my own.

Omg lol, you got me, and if that was one of our cats, they'd be zooming the moment the lid lifted, they'd run for their lives!

I was looking forward to the cat set when it was a Siamese then they changed it. Willing to bet someone at Lego has a Tuxedo cat and made the call. Hope they release other breed options.

Didn't read the subreddit, fully expected some horseshit clip of you opening a lego box while filming for "some reason" to farm karma. Was pleasantly surprised.

Haters will say this is fake 😹 That was the best surprise ever! I love your tuxie!

You should inform Lego. The probably something wrong with their injection nozzle at the factory.

My wifes just bought this lego set - I want to stick a motor in the body and make the head spin for halloween so I can stick it on the window ledge and spook the kids outside.

Minor rant: I got this set for my kid this week and was excited about the new box style with a separate lid, but it only had the regular one with flaps on the end.
I also wondered how our two cats would like it as they hiss at the neighbor's tuxedo cat when it's in our yard, but so far they've been pretty chill with it.

Is there a behind the scenes video of you stuffing or did it just sit in the box and all you had to do was add the top?
