LEGO 21269, The Armadillo Mine Expedition, is part of the Minecraft theme and depicts a mine scene inspired by the game. Released in 2025, it contains 247 pieces and focuses on an armadillo miner during an underground expedition.

This set belongs to the LEGO Minecraft range, which converts game locations, creatures and situations into brick-built scenes. Its subject is a mining expedition centred on an armadillo character, presented as a compact setting rather than a large environment.
