The office

Loved this build! I only wish they would expand on it. The office is not complete because there is no annex, kitchen, warehouse or Oscar, Kevin, Meredith, Creed and Angela’s desks. Really hoping they put out an expansion for this set! They really took the time to add all the little details from the episodes so it was really fun to build.
My fiancé and I built this set while watching The Office (highly recommend doing this!) and we were astounded by how many references were put into this set! There are so many fun options for various portions of this set and was one of my favorite builds recently!
As I built the set, putting together some of the Easter eggs, I felt like I was rewatching the show in my head. The designer thought of everything. Even down to Stanley’s nickels and the radon kit Michael kept throwing out. I hope they have plans to add the other areas of the office. My one complaint about this set were the stickers. Way too many of them. They were loose in the box and arrived all damaged. They probably should’ve been in an envelope. Some had come off and were stuck to the book. I ordered more, but was told they weren’t in stock. So I went ahead and started building and just salvaged the damaged stickers. Then, a few weeks later stickers show up in my mailbox. Overall, this was such a fun build. Gotta get back to watching The Office now. Bye!
The is interesting, and has an overabundance of inside jokes, easter eggs and callbacks, but the spacing is just a bit too tight, not allowing for drawers to be opened, or elements accessed. It felt overstuffed and fragile in some places, like the desk chairs. I would have preferred the scale to be about 20% bigger, allowing for breathing room. Also, due to the layout, it's not easily displayed, or visible from a shelf. I'd recommend something else, like the Friends set, or just avoid it generally.
I hadn’t built a Lego in many years, not since the kids stopped needing help. My son bought me the Bonsai tree for Christmas and when I saw The Office set I knew I had to have it. Both sit on a shelf in my office at work and get many compliments. I even added lights to The Office. I agree with most that there are tons of stickers but I used a pair of tweezers and it was much easier to peel and place them. I love the end result and even for a beginner it seemed straight forward as long as I was patient. Great set.
This is a very fun set. There are many little hidden The Office references that are an absolute hoot. The attention to detail is applause-worhty. Thought it would have been fun to have a conference table that could be moved in and out.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I found out there was a Lego set on The Office I flipped out. It being my favorite show and Lego being my favorite hobby I had to get my hands on this. I got i for Christmas and it was a blast to build, the minifigues are accurate to their characters, the attention to detail in the set is great, and the amount of references to all the different episodes was so much fun to build. However, this set has a few flaws, and I will list them here: 1. small space for a lot of minifigures, and this isn't the first time I've seen this in a display set for lego. The minifigure count is great, but the space is small. It would have been nice to get every section of the main area, including accounting, quality assurance, Jim's management office, more of the conference room and a table to go with it. hopefully the Lego team makes some extensions to this set with those things 2. There are way to many stickers in this set. and stickers in sets are known for being a pain to put on, it would have been nicer for these pieces to have been printed instead of needing a sticker. I know a lot of these stickers contain references to the show, but it's a pain to put the sticker on, not to mention repetitive. And when you put on a sticker and it's crooked, it shows, and you can un-see it. These are the only two problems I have with this set, it has flaws, but that doesn't make it a bad set. This set is great, and is so much fun to explore. The show may have ended (The finale will be reaching it's 10-year anniversary this year!!), but that doesn't mean us fans are done with it! Rit-dit-dit-dit-dit-do!
