Although not new moulds, the new 2022 sets include a new horse featuring a printed halter, this is found in set 60327: Horse Transporter. Most of the new creature elements come via the LEGO City line. All-new moulds include kittens and squirrels. Set 60321: Fire Brigade features two kittens, one white and one ginger. Finally, Jasmine, Dexter, Loki, Angie, Fluffy, Fluffy Jr, Fluffy Sr, Bad Leroy, and Jeff have younger counterparts. Everyone loves a LEGO® Minifigure, but a LEGO animal is an extremely close second. There have been a few different LEGO critters most famously horses, sharks and a dog or two. But recently the mini menagerie has rapidly expanded to include elephants, lions, monkeys and even sheep. They will be joined by a few new faces once the 2022 LEGO sets launch on January 1st, 2022. Here’s a look at some of the new animals joining the LEGO line-up. If you missed out on the turtle from the 20th series of LEGO Minifigures, it appears again in set 60328: Beach Lifeguard Station. This set also includes a new Ice Cream Cone suit, not an animal but still cool. Finally, the 22nd series of LEGO Minifigures introduces two new creatures. One is a foal, meaning you can now add a baby horse to your LEGO animal collection.

All three Squirrel variants are available, so if you’re thinking of building a Squirrel Army, now’s your chance.
