Yeah, it has over 1000 pieces and is a licensed set, so it should be around $100 based on other sets. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come price wise.

I think it's remarkable how well they captured the look of the friends in minifig form. Rachel and Chandler in particular!
Thank you. I couldn't get that from the figure at all lol. Although I should have guessed as much
You already had a Big Bang Theory and Stranger Things sets before this.
My first thought was: these aren't Lego Friends.
So Big Bang Theory and Friends both got sets but Community never did? This is indeed the darkest timeline.
That is because Lego has a line named Friends which is toward little girls. I guess they don't want confused parents.
"I bought this Lego Friends set and I saw *no* reference to Heartlake!"
I seem to remember hearing rumours he'd got the cut from the original Ideas design. Glad that wasn't the case.
Edit: Just noticed the soundstage lighting in the foreground, that's a nice touch.
50% mark up for Canada is a bit rough, our exchange isn't THAT bad.
Still, my wife is super excited about it. Guess I know what to get her for Xmas.

Don't forget tax. It's still pricier than a straight conversion (think it ought to be $70 with a straight exchange rate?), but it's not quite as egregious as it seems at the outset.
Not my thing, but cool for what it is. I like that it's actually a set, with filming lights
Actually, Lego needs to make a Colbert Report set, with weeping American eagle included

They probably wouldn't touch it because alcohol, but the suggestion of Cheers earlier in the thread is inspired.
No ross is thhe sandwich guy.
Nope.
Ross has The Moist Maker, but that's it. Joey goes to insane lengths for sandwiches throughout the show. When his sister is going to reveal she's pregnant and she knows he'll be angry, she gives him a sandwich. He likes pizza, but sandwiches are his favorite food.
Yea that's true. Plus his meatball sandwich he almost got shot over.
I'm cutting down on Lego sets. Managed to stop myself getting the Flintstones one, Steamboat Mickey and that awesome Jurassic Park gate.
But this? I'm buying this.

Yes that is true. But Lego sandwiches are brick buikt (as opposite to printed tiles like the pizza slice, a printed sandwich would not look good anyway). There were several different brick built sandwiches for Shaggy in the Scooby-Doo sets, in example. But they are oversized and would not look good either on a set like Friends. So the pizza slice is a compromise I accept.
This was a LEGO Ideas set, it was created by a fan and won a contest to essentially be put in front of a panel of judges who see if it's actually viable to sell / possible to license, then it's tweaked and turned into a finalized set. So if it's your dream to see a set like that, you should submit it!
I'm not sure what the LEGO rules are around alcohol, I believe it's mostly literal war themes that are risque. I think a set like Cheers could theoretically pass (although I'm unsure if there's enough support out there) in the same way Star Wars or Overwatch get a pass, they're about a thing but not really about a thing.
Anyway, I hate Friends and I have to admit I'm little bummed this really took up an IDEAS slot but I'm trying to be happy for those who are happy, : ) .
They chose the wrong era for Ross's hair.
Gunther wasn't the owner, he just worked there.

My mind just quantum leaped to the mid 2000s so hard.
That's such an obscure yet great show.
Well, the Detective's Office modular contains a very clearly inspired prohibition-style bootlegging operation... but the official storyline is 'illicit cookie smuggling', so people generally consider that an implication that alcohol is probably just a little step too far for their image.
Wow a good deal for a lego set, havent seen that since Saturn V and some of the Ninjago Movie stuff
That's a fantastic looking set. Hopefully that Seinfeld one gets the green light because I would love to have these two together.
The Rachel cut has got to be one of the biggest styles ever.

The description in the press release says it is included, but I am not seeing it in the pictures.
LOLOLOL I actually laughed really hard at this.
If they make a Malcolm in the Middle set i'm sold XD

Is that meant to be the awesomely powerful laptop chandler has? Used for "games and stuff", looks like the suitcase but I really hope it's the laptop.
A nice set. Again may get it for Xmas for my partner.... And she won't build it like the easter bunny set from 6 years ago!!!

It is the laptop
"
- The minifigures each have their own items inspired by the TV series, including Ross's brick-built keyboard and the following accessory elements: Rachel's tray and coffee cup, Monica's muffin, Joey's pizza box, pizza slice and 'man bag', Chandler's laptop, Phoebe's guitar and Gunther's broom."

They went with later season's this:

I'd say it's more the bob she had after cutting off her super long hair.
Can't believe Gunther made it in.
Fun fact, the actor got that gig as he was the only extra on set that knew how to use an espresso machine and he's pretty much lived off the royalties ever since.
