LEGO Avatar 75579, Payakan the Tulkun & Crabsuit, depicts Payakan alongside a Crabsuit in the ocean setting of Avatar. Released in 2023, this Avatar theme set includes 761 pieces and is tied to the world of The Way of Water.
Set 75579 belongs to the LEGO Avatar theme and focuses on a subject from the marine side of The Way of Water. Payakan, the tulkun, is the main build and gives the set its strongest visual identity. The Crabsuit adds a mechanical element, placing the creature and underwater technology in the same scene.
The model is built from 761 pieces and combines an animal build with a separate vehicle build.
This set is suited to Avatar collectors, play layouts based on the ocean environment, or display arrangements that focus on Pandora’s wildlife. Within the theme, it is defined by the presence of Payakan and by the pairing with the Crabsuit, making it different from sets that concentrate mainly on landscapes, aircraft or character groupings.
