LEGO Minecraft set 21156, BigFig Creeper and Ocelot, depicts a large scale Creeper with an ocelot. Released in 2020 within the Minecraft theme, it contains 184 pieces and turns two recognizable game creatures into buildable LEGO models.
BigFig Creeper and Ocelot is part of the LEGO Minecraft theme, which adapts the block based look of the game into LEGO construction. The subject combines a Creeper with an ocelot, both familiar creatures from the Minecraft setting.

It can be used for display, open ended play, or as part of a LEGO Minecraft creature collection. Within the theme, it fits alongside character focused models rather than sets centered on larger structures or terrain scenes.
