Lego expanding Minecraft offerings with sets centering on The Village and The Nether; will launch September 1 for $35.

Two new Lego Minecraft sets will be unveiled today at Comic-Con, Lego has confirmed with GameSpot sister site CNET.

The two new models will center on The Village and The Nether. Each will be available beginning September 1 for $35.

The Village, which can be split into four sections and configured in multiple ways, will include a constructible villager and pig, and zombie Micromob figures. The Nether set includes the Obsidian Nether Portal, flowing lava, gravel, and bedrock, and it features two Ghast and one zombie Pigman.

Upon launch in September, the sets will be available in limited quantities due to an "expedited timeline" of six months for design and production of the units, according to Lego's Minecraft brand manager, Michelle Wilson.

The first Lego Minecraft set--Micro World--launched last summer and is available today for $50.
