Wicked: Part One hits theaters on November 22, and it’s shaping up to be one of the biggest releases of the year. A reimagining of The Wizard of Oz, Wicked originally released as a novel by Gregory Maguire before being adapted into a Tony Award-winning stage musical. The Universal Pictures musical film has been in the works for over a decade, and the studio appears to be betting big on the film. Not only is it split into two parts--Wicked: Part Two is slated for November 2025--but there's a lot of new Wicked merch releasing in the coming weeks.

Ahead of its release, you’ll find a variety of Lego sets, movie collections, and other merch up for grabs. Many products are up for preorder, while others are now available and listed with a discount ahead of Wicked's November release. The official Lego Wicked sets are the big draw, though you’ll also find a Wicked Box Set that gets you all four original novels plus an eye-catching slipcase to display them on your bookshelf. A brand-new prequel novel releases next year to help fans fill the gap between the first and second parts of the film adaptation.

Here’s a look at the most notable Wicked merch we've seen thus far. Keep in mind that you won’t pay for Amazon preorders until they ship, and you’ll also benefit from their preorder pricing guarantee--making you eligible for any price drops that occur between placing your preorder and release. We'll add more Wicked merch to this roundup as its revealed.


Lego Wicked: Elphaba & Glinda Figures (558 pieces)


$55 | Releases October 1

Once you’ve snapped together its 558 pieces, you’ll have two large Glinda and Elphaba figurines. These can then be customized with accessories like brooms, crowns, and purses, and they’re fully posable so you can easily display them throughout your home. There’s also a hidden QR code for additional Wicked content.


Lego Wicked: Welcome to Emerald City Dollhouse Playset (945 pieces)


$100 | Releases October 1

This is the biggest set of the bunch, featuring a three-story tower and five mini-dolls for Glinda, Elphaba, The Wizard, Madame Morrible, and Fiyero. You’ll find plenty of accessories and interactive components too, allowing characters to explore various parts of the Emerald City.


Lego Wicked: Glinda & Elphaba’s Dormitory Playset (740 pieces)


$70 | Releases October 1

Snap together a small playset that includes figures for Elphaba and Glinda, plus a few accessories like additional outfits, wands, and perfume bottles.


Lego Wicked: Glinda, Elphaba & Nessarose at Shiz University (304 pieces)


$30 | Releases October 1

This affordable Lego set features Glinda, Elphaba, and Nessarose. You’ll get to build a sailboat and a tiny portion of Shiz University so you can replicate the three characters’ first meeting.


Wizard of Oz: 85th Anniversary Theater Edition (4K UHD)


$80 | Releases November 5

As mentioned already, Wicked is a revisionist version of The Wizard of Oz. It's very different from the original L. Frank Baum novel and the classic film, but it features some of the same characters and is set in the same world. As such, a new 4K collector's edition of the beloved 1939 film will release on November 5.

Along with a 4K UHD copy of the iconic film, you'll get a standard Blu-ray disc and voucher for the digital version. The 85th Anniversary Theater Edition also includes a bunch of collectibles:

  • Invitation to the 1939 Premiere
  • The Preview Premier Theatre Ticket
  • Grauman’s Chinese Theatre 8-Page Program
  • 4 Art Cards
  • 8 Original Theatre Lobby Cards


Wicked: The Game (Board Game)


$35 | Releases October 1

Designed for up to four players, you’ll team up with Glinda and Elphaba to stop the Wizard and save Oz. One of the coolest aspects of the game is the board itself, which features a massive replica of the Emerald City.


Monopoly: Wicked Edition


$30 | Releases October 1

Monopoly gets a Wicked twist the same day the new Wicked board game releases.. Along with six new golden zinc tokens based on key objects from the film, the entire gameboard has been reworked to feature faces and places from Oz.


The Wicked Series Box Set (Wicked, Son of a Witch, A Lion Among Men, Out of Oz)


$80 | Releases October 1

Dive into the novels that laid the groundwork for the upcoming movie and award-winning musical. This box set gets you all four paperbacks in Maguire's The Wicked Years series, starting with Wicked and ending with Out of Oz. Toss in an eye-catching slipcase, and it’ll make a great centerpiece for your bookshelf.

If you're unfamiliar with Maguire's novels, you should know that it's written for adults, not children like L. Frank Baum's 1900 novel The Wizard of Oz. Wicked does not star Dorothy; instead, the story focuses on Elphaba Thropp, who later is known as the Wicked Witch of the West.

The novel's full title is Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West.


Wicked Collector's Editions


The first book in Maguire's series is also getting a gorgeous new hardcover edition (shown above on the left). Wicked Collector's Edition has a foil-stamped cover, green stained edges, and a ribbon bookmark. The foil-stamped cover art is a brand-new design for the series. The map of Oz is included as endpapers. Wicked Collector's Edition releases September 24 and is available to preorder for 30% off, dropping the price from $40 to $28.

There's another gorgeous edition to consider, and this one is available now. The bonded-leather hardcover version of Wicked shown above on the right is exclusive to Barnes & Noble. It comes with a satin ribbon bookmark and contains beautiful illustrations. Wicked also comes with the second book in the series, Son of a Witch, and is available for only $35. Meanwhile, Barnes & Noble's Collectible Edition of The Wizard of Oz with a bonded-leather cover is only $15.


Elphie: A Wicked Childhood (Hardcover)


$30 | Releases March 25, 2025

Elphie is an upcoming 288-page prequel novel that follows young Elphaba years before the tale of Wicked. You’ll learn more about not just Elphaba, but also Nessarose, Shell, Frex, and Melena. Elphie: A Wicked Childhood releases March 25, 2025. This hardcover is described as a Deluxe Limited Edition, but it's unclear at this time what makes it "deluxe," as the full design hasn't been revealed.


Wicked Dolls


A variety of Wicked dolls from Barbie manufacturer Mattel are arriving on September 28, including Elphaba, Glinda, and Nessarose. A few different styles are available for each, and most come with additional accessories like scepters, capes, and crowns.


Wicked: Replica Pop-Up Book


$45 ($50) | Releases November 22

You'll see a book called The Story of Oz while watching Wicked in theaters. Insight Editions made a replica version of the short tale. This cloth-bound hardcover pop-up book features three scenes and 10 illustrations. It releases the same day as the film, so you could check it out after returning from the theater. Plus, it would make a cool gift for big Wicked fans.


Wicked: The Grimmerie Collectible Hardcover Journal


$40.50 ($45) | Releases November 19

Insight Editions is also releasing a 240-page hardcover journal designed to resemble the Grimmerie from Wicked. Like the pop-up book, this could be a neat gift idea this holiday, and it come packaged in a gift box.


Wicked: The Official Advent Calendar


$31.49 ($35)

Count down to the holidays with the official Wicked Advent Calendar. Each day gets you a new surprise, running the gamut from coasters and magnets to laptop stickers and patches.


Wicked Little Golden Books


While Maguire's novels aren't written for young children, Little Golden Books certainly are. Two Little Golden Books are up for grabs based on Wicked. One follows Glinda, while the other follows Elphaba. Both feature colorful illustrations and tell a story appropriate for kids aged 2 - 5. Preorders are now open, with both arriving on October 15.


Wicked Official Coloring Book


$18 | Releases October 1

An official Wicked coloring book is releasing on October 1. It features characters and locations from the upcoming film, including Shiz University, the Emerald City, Elphaba, and Glinda.
