Zahn noted that Lego's ability to be"ahead of the curve" has allowed it to be more nimble during times of inflation, as consumers tighten their purse strings, and to navigate upheaval in the theatrical entertainment industry and even looming tariff increases. More recently, the company has launched kits such as the Sanderson sisters' house from"Hocus Pocus" and even a"Jaws" set featuring the iconic shark taking down Quint's boat.

Goldin said previous car products, including a McLaren Lego set, performed well at retail, giving Lego confidence to delve deeper into the auto racing space.
