Earlier this year, LEGO Ideas invited fans to submit set concepts inspired by the 1990s. The champion of the “Build Your Nostalgia” contest has been revealed: a large, detailed model based on the iconic sci-fi series, The X-Files. The winning design will now be developed by the LEGO Ideas team, where it will likely undergo refinements before its official launch at a future date.
Designed by a creator known as WetWired, “The X-Files: The Truth Is Out There” is a dual-vignette set. The top section depicts a UFO scene in the woods, while the bottom recreates Mulder's basement office. This proposed model consists of approximately 2,020 pieces and comes with seven minifigures.

The set is based on the science fiction television series The X-Files. The show follows the paranormal investigations of two FBI agents: Fox Mulder (a believer in the unexplained, played by David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (a scientific skeptic, played by Gillian Anderson).
The series premiered in 1993 and ran for a total of 11 seasons. Its initial nine-season run on Fox concluded in 2002, with the show later returning for two revival seasons in 2016 and 2018. The franchise also includes two feature films: The X-Files (1998) and The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008).

Alongside the “Build Your Nostalgia” challenge, LEGO Ideas hosted a second 1990s-themed contest for a more compact set. The winner, titled “The Next Chapter,” is a model based on the stop-motion animation Wallace & Gromit, created by Pidelium.
