Lego has announced its latest crossover set and it one based on the hit sitcom The Office. If you’re a fan of the show, you’ll want to get out your magnifying glass because the Lego set appears to be chock-a-block with callbacks to some of the most iconic items from The Office.
It includes the Dunder Mifflin office space, 15 minifigures based on characters like Michael Scott, Dwight Schrute, Pam Beesly and Jim Halpert, among others.
According to The Verge, The Office set became a reality after getting 10,000 votes through the Lego Ideas programme. The original submitter, Jaijai Lewis, has been working on the project since 2014, the publication added.
The set measures over 3 inches high, 12 inches wide, and 10 inches deep and has 1,164 pieces. It costs $119.99 (about Rs 9,600) and will release on October 1. It can, however, be pre-ordered via Walmart’s website in the US and Canada and at Lego.com internationally.
