Lego unveils Friends Apartments set
    2021-05-26  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

The “Friends” TV show might have aired its final episode in 2004, but Lego will be there for you with a new set.

You can continue the stories of Rachel, Ross, Joey, Monica, Phoebe and Chandler with the 2,048-piece Friends Apartments kit. It includes the two main New York apartments from the show along with a connecting hallway.

The set is packed with detailed insider references, from Phoebe’s “Gladys” painting to the meat-sweats Thanksgiving turkey to the giant poking device used to check on Ugly Naked Guy. If you don’t know what those phrases reference, it’s probably time for a series rewatch.

The “Friends” minifigures are decked out in some of their finest costumes. Ross has on his restrictive leather pants and Monica sports an apron. The main-cast minifigures are joined by recurring character Janice (Chandler’s sometimes-girlfriend), who is making her minifigure debut.

Lego released a 1,070-piece Central Perk coffee shop set in 2019, but the apartment offering is bigger and more ambitious. The Friends Apartments goes on sale to the general public on June 1 for US$149.99. The set is recommended for Lego aficionados at 18 years old and older, which should pretty much encompass the target audience for “Friends.”

The possibilities for mashups of iconic moments from the show will be endless. At last, Joey can wear all of Chandler’s clothes while getting the meat sweats as Phoebe’s doll house catches fire.

The set even comes with lighting props to give it a TV studio feel. But this time you’re the director and Rachel and Ross’ relationship can be just as smooth or rocky as you want it to be.
