There is more to Lego than models of the Batmobile and the Millenium Falcon.

On Wednesday, Lego announced a new line of art sets aimed at attracting adults. Instead of building objects, new sets allow you to create portraits of pop culture icons like Wonderful superhero Iron Man and Star Wars Sith villains Darth Vader, Darth Maul, and Kylo Ren.

The new kits also include a replica of artist Andy Warhol’s painting of actress Marilyn Monroe, as well as portraits of each of the Beatles.

Each Lego Art set includes over 3,000 small, round pieces in various colors to stand out on a canvas. The square canvas measures 15.5 inches (40 cm) on each side.

Each Lego art set comes with a canvas and multi-colored round Lego pegs.

Lego Art sets have a canvas for each portrait. So if you want to build portraits of each of The Beatles gang members or all Star Wars villains to display, you need to purchase multiple sets.

Lego Art sets can also be combined to make a larger, multi-canvas piece of art.

All Lego sets come with soundtracks to play while building sets that tell backstories, rare recordings, and art-themed interviews.

Each Lego Art set sells for $ 120 (around £ 96, AU $ 172). The sets will debut in stores outside the United States on August 1 and in the United States on September 1.
