Set Review - #40861-1: Sulley, Mike, and Boo - Monster's Inc. - Brickheadz

Mike Wazowski!!!! Sulley and Boo too! Another Disney Brickheadz set. This one is #40861-1: Sully, Mike and Boo. It was released on 2 March 2026 and retails for $24.99. It contains 303 pieces which works out to $0.082 per piece. We’re at Brickheadz numbers 294, 295, and 296. Can you believe we’ve had that many already?

The box shows the three on the front and then shows them again on the back.

The set contains five parts bags and three instruction booklets. Bags one and two are for Sulley, bag three is for Mike, and bags four and five build Boo. Of note, the instruction booklet for Boo only lists bag four on the front, but inside includes the usage of bag five. Whoops! A quality control miss there LEGO.

Bags one and two build Sulley. The blue color is about right and there are 1x1 round tiles to capture the spots. Obviously there is no fur so it doesn’t look super real as compared to the movie version, but I think it’s close enough.

Bag three builds Mike. I realize it’s a Brickheadz character, but I feel like he doesn’t have the roundness that you’d expect like the movie character. The top of his head especially with the use of cheese slopes and quarter round tiles doesn’t quite capture it. I do like the eye how they have the larger round white and then the standard Brickheadz eye tile on top of it.

Bags five and six build Boo. Nothing overly complicated or different here. I do like how they used the… I’m not sure what the piece is called… It’s like a stud attached to an angled rod… anyways, it has the right angle to give her pigtails which is a nice touch and with the round plates in there, she has hair ties on each one.

Here are the final builds. As always, if you are a Brickheadz collector or Monster’s Inc. fan, These are for you. Otherwise, feel free to avoid them. $25 and $0.08 per piece isn’t bad, but could be better (even with the IP). Piece type is okay, but nothing super special for MOC builders. These typically don’t go on sale, but you could get them at a discount before they retire. I got a GWP in the process of getting these so that helped.

Happy building!
