LEGO's Ideas series recently announced the latest creation designed by LEGO fan Jaijai Lewis, which garnered 10,000 votes of support on the LEGO Ideas platform and has been officially commercialized: "21336 The Office"! It is scheduled for release on October 1, 2022.
From Jaijai Lewis's nickname on the LEGO IDEAS platform, "Lego The Office," one can feel his passion for the sitcom "The Office." Lewis had previously submitted proposals based on "The Office" in 2015 and 2019, and although they received 10,000 votes of support, they did not pass the review process. Finally, with his third submission in 2020, Lewis achieved his goal of officially commercializing a "The Office"-themed creation!

In addition to using behind-the-scenes photos from the series to build and plan the overall design, Lewis also endeavored to retain a rich cast of characters and recreate classic moments while minimizing the overall size. After modifications by official designers and formal commercialization, the layout has undergone more vivid changes. With 1164 pieces, the assembled model measures approximately 30 cm in length, recreating the Dunder Mifflin paper company branch's reception area, conference room, and the office of manager "Michael Scott" (portrayed by Steve Carell), among others. What's fun is that toy enthusiasts can even slide out the manager's office for separate display! There are 15 minifigures, which is quite a generous number. The printed stapler piece and the mug inscribed with "World's Best Boss" are also very interesting!
