LEGO is helping us spice up our lives with its new Spice Girls tribute set.
The major toy retailer unveiled the special collection to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the iconic Spiceworld album earlier this month.
Emma, Geri, Mel B, Melanie C and Victoria have been immortalised as LEGO BrickHeadz™queens of girl power in a world-first since no one has been created in BrickHeadz form before.
"There are few bands that defined pop culture in the same way the Spice Girls did back in the 1990s, and it’s been such fun bringing the band to life in our BrickHeadz style,” says LEGO designer Daniel Squirrell.
Mr Squirrell added: “This is the first time we have created a music band in BrickHeadz form and what we really, really wanted was to capture the essence and nostalgia of the Spice Girls, through their iconic looks. I am delighted with the set and I hope the fans are too.”
The tribute set stays true to every detail from hairstyles to clothing that earned the band their signature style.
There are even new leopard print LEGO bricks to recreate Mel B’s eye-catching look, along with Geri's unforgettable Union Jack dress, Melanie C’s tracksuit, Emma’s baby pink dress and Victoria's trademark black dress too
In celebration of the new LEGO set, world-renowned photographer Rankin has brought the brick band to life, recreating images originally shot in his studio that made the band so instantly recognisable around the world.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers.
