Friends, Avatar and Seinfeld movie sets have recently been released, and now it’s time to create a set for The Office. On sale LEGO Ideas 21336 The Office will appear from October 1, 2022 at a price of 140 euros.

General characteristics of the constructor LEGO Ideas 21336 «Office» (The Office)

A feature of the LEGO Ideas 21336 «Office» (The Office) constructor is that, when assembled, an office location with several offices without a roof opens up in front of users.

The game set includes 1164 parts and 15 minifigures. The assembled structure of the office space is:

• 30 cm long;

• 25 cm wide.

Fans of the comedy series will find many references to familiar and very funny moments in this set. To do this, the developers of the designer with incredible accuracy selected the characters — participants in these scenes and the necessary accessories.

Recognizable elements are collected from many episodes of several seasons of The Office, for example:

• stapler in jelly
• bat
• burning jug,
• pretzels,
• DVD sign in the corner of the TV,
• greeting card for Valentine’s Day and more.

For everyone who watched this comedy series, this set will be a welcome gift.

It should be noted that this building set for adults has become one of the many sets LEGO Ideascreated by a Lego fan. At one time, other users voted for the submitted project at the Lego Idea Contest. And later in the professional selection, the company’s specialists decided that this set has the right to «go out».

This kit also includes a step-by-step guide — an illustrated booklet about the office and instructions that will make the assembly process a real pleasure.

LEGO Ideas 21336 Office minifigures

The minifigures featured in the LEGO Ideas 21336 The Office set make it truly unique. The authors collected all the main characters and the main part of the secondary, but important characters of the series. Not surprisingly, there are 15 minifigures in total.

Comedy fans will certainly recognize them (from left to right in the photo):

• Darryl Philbin,
• Phyllis Lapin,
• Ryan Howard,
• Kelly Kapoor,
• Toby Flenderson,
• pam beasley,
• Jim Halpert
• michael scott,
• Dwight Schrute,
• Angela Martin,
• Oscar Martinez,
• Kevin Melorn,
• Stanley Hudson,
• Meredith Palmer,
• Creed Bratton.

Immediately whole 15 minifigures and even an Angela Garbage cat figurine!

As an added bonus, the 12 minifigures come with double-sided faces that show different characters’ emotions.

The collected location presents the most recognizable and favorite places of the audience:

• office floor;
• conference hall,
• outbuilding,
• Michael Scott’s office — it is separately put forward for demonstration.

A large number of characters gives a lot of opportunities and allows you to recreate your favorite scenes and moments from the movie series. For example, fans will definitely not miss the story of Pam and Jim’s office romance.

An equally amusing memory will be the scene of how Kevin sprinkled his famous chili pepper.

Also, the set will allow you to restore the scene when Michael Scott realizes that he has become a member of the pyramid scheme.

And if you look behind the board, you can find the famous DVD logo in the corner.

Just like in the TV series, Michael will be able to receive office staff in his office in this playset at any time.

What are the disadvantages of the designer LEGO Ideas 21336 «Office»?

With all the positive aspects and advantages of the set, obvious shortcomings were also found in it. For example, users have noticed that the design of the lower part of the minifigures is rather boring and of the same typeexcept for Pam. Some characters are completely unrecognisable. the proposed minifigures are Kelly, Toby, Pam, Meredith and Creed.

But in fairness, it should be noted that the figures of Dwight, Phyllis, Kevin, Oscar, Jim are simply incredibly similar to their serial characters. And a huge number of strict shirts and suits can be useful for use in other Lego sets or when creating copyright projects.

It’s a pity that the office location does not include other places in the series — a toilet, a kitchen, a lawyer / personnel manager’s nook, a product warehouse on the ground floor. There is also no parking, even quite small for employees.

Some sadness is caused by the absence of figurines:

• Jen,
• Roy,
• Andy Bernard,
• David Wallace and others.

Although all these shortcomings can be viewed from the other side — as the potential for the release of new prefabricated sets in this subject.

Finally

Like all new builds, even if made by the legendary Danish company Lego, the LEGO Ideas 21336 The Office set has generated a lot of controversy. Someone likes that the location has no roof, while others are very unhappy with this. The selection and design of minifigures were smashed to smithereens. Although the developers should be commended that they were able to fill the kit with a cost of 140 euros for as many as 15 minifigures!

Perhaps such an ambiguous reaction is quite expected for a thematic set. For all those who have not watched the comedy series The Office, this constructor will simply be uninteresting. However, the series has a huge following that will most likely want to own this exciting set. Also, the toy will be a great gift for serial fans for any occasion.

Without a doubt constructor LEGO Ideas 21336 «Office» (The Office) will be of interest to collectors, which will receive a lot of minifigures for a relatively small price for them. Although the decision — to buy or not to buy this set — is a personal matter for each user.
