LEGO Friends the Apartments (10292) - 2021 Set Review

[@Ashnflash]

What do you think of this set? Could it BE any better?

[@treysullivan9828]

This set is so perfect. Oh My GOD!!

[@GiraffeGuy631]

Meh, I’m gonna spend my money on Iron Monger, Finale Battle, and Benatar

[@thomascasillo9861]

It's a perfect follow up to the central perk set.

[@FiveCentBuilds]

It is trash and we need the office

[@cooperproduction8799]

Ash I told you in the live stream at 14:37 it’s Pams teapot

[@jordancasillan5965]

I would like to see a small set where they do the intro on the fountain and a couch to bring it all together.

[@avengerslevelthreat8099]

omg yes!

[@FDNProductions]

I could see that being a £30 set, including all six characters in their black and white outfits. They could also include the studio lights on plates to keep it consistent

[@cornerofryan]

Yes!!!

[@mreltsu33]

Yeah these big sets are kinda expensive :/

[@themachine7534]

Dude..sweet .

[@TheBrickBuildingEnthusiast]

It's a shame they weren't able to make Chandler's bedroom door cut in half with a swinging action. That would have made it feel complete to me.

[@maddisonchin3112]

Aw i love that idea lol that would’ve been so good

[@detonatingcreeper6222]

Cut it yourself then lol

[@henribg1]

yes. and not only that, i gave so much money to get a set containing only doors. Half of them doors opens on the wrong direction. They didnt even print the Monicas door :( yet in the Central perk coffee set the window and the menu plates are printed. Dont let me start on the colors, such a pastel blob. Zero contrast.

[@minionchamp2480]

I think what would have made this set more complete is if it had the bathrooms and bedrooms as well. I wouldn't mind paying extra for those rooms. It would've made the set more complete IMO.

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

"Friends is one of the most iconic shows of all time" *No lies detected* I call this one "The One Where Our Apartments Are Turned Into A Lego Set". And you know it's iconic when people quote it and its theme song all the time. It changed sitcoms forever. I can't believe they did this either, especially doing both apartments in one set. They clearly went above and beyond. What a great set

[@0428733]

I just love how Janice has her own figure, and Joey's wearing all of Chandler's clothes XD

[@ForceBros]

I think the two stools in Joey and Chandler's apartment are too high. It is literally the height of the counter. Maybe they could have made it one brick shorter.

[@nickricci19]

I agree but can atleast eliminate the brick plate and just put the round tile on the legs

[@rodgerkehl8399]

As a novice it’s so funny to read a comment like this. These are incredible

[@hsss1]

@@rodgerkehl8399 Agreed. If they only knew

[@marcl.611]

The list in Monica's appartment next to the sofa is just the notebook she ALWAYS keeps next to the phone

[@brentwaller]

The "speaker" in Joey's Apartment is probably a classic 90s CD rack

[@stacyr.8585]

It is, indeed, a CD rack.

[@NetStrider]

Everyone I knew had at least one of them.

[@gilean6179]

impossible for me to miss that.

[@sakcalderon]

The milk carton is actually from the commercial when Joey or “Kevin” can’t open it. When he drank the milk in 10 seconds it was a big plastic bottle.

[@bobastu]

The bedrooms are not included because the bedrooms were not directly connected to the two apartment sets. So, the bedrooms would be their own separate sets if someone felt so inclined to build them.

[@MrEpocMan413]

i’ve never seen the show but i still think the set looks super sick

[@Ashnflash]

Give it a watch!

[@justintendo4302]

Definitely watch it, I just got into it last week and it’s so great! Only a season in and I want this set

[@AnxietyDanvers1994]

I should definitely watch it myself. I mean it’s on HBOMax so...

[@bemtx2763]

@@AnxietyDanvers1994 I started four days ago and I’m almost on season 5 already. It’s so good!

[@ananaispineapple1667]

@Alan Milch why ?

[@GriffinCardinal]

Rip Ross’s apartment

[@elenaweinberger]

and Phoebes :( 😂

[@lilyblossom1240]

Actually that wouldn’t be a bad set to sell. Ross with glow in the dark teeth The couch Rachel moves in with baby

[@elenaweinberger]

@@lilyblossom1240 that's actually a really good idea

[@TheBrickBuildingEnthusiast]

I think the reason why the carpet is removable is so you can turn it around and make it look like the Lazyboy's were turned 180° by Joey and Chandler.

[@omarel]

The red “light” on the side of the set is the “Hot Set indicator” most filming sets have a red light, this prevents interruption durning filming. There’s also one on the Central Perk Lego set They really focused on details of it being filming set I can’t wait for Briksmax to release a lighting kit

[@answeris746]

Where’s the red light in the perk I have it and don’t see it anywnere

[@jamesbuchananbarnesss]

The one in the central perk is just for the people to understand the instrucions, and the one from the Central Perk is hidden, this one is not.

[@leeriches8841]

I didn't notice it on my Central Perk, where is it?

[@nadim20.06]

It would be great to have a set like that for WandaVision .

[@larrykitzman9972]

They needed to add the stairs going up in the hallway to fill in that void and for the dummy of Ross falling down those stairs gag played on Rachel with Ben.

[@Airborne-101st]

This may have already been mentioned but the corner piece you don't like in the girls kitchen sink at 11:34 is there intentionally. In the series the girls apartment has a double basin kitchen sink. That corner piece represents the division between the basins.

[@thomascasillo9861]

Which build was more fun: The Apartments or The Daily Bugle?

[@GiraffeGuy631]

The second option

[@TheRealmPod]

Daily bugle was the most fun I’ve ever had building a set

[@Wilyum-qs9bv]

Bugle is repetitive but it has a lot of cool features

[@Berry-hf3jj]

Don’t have either but I think the bugle would be more fun to build

[@jamesbuchananbarnesss]

I think it would be The Apartments, the Daily Bugle it's cool but is very repetitive.

[@ej_ani123]

I really love how they made so much references to the show in one Lego set

[@gabrielferreirapadilha5320]

I think they should have included at least two more door pieces, so you can have all the three stickers. They did it for the Erised Mirror :/

[@Ashnflash]

True. But there's already all those others

[@stacyr.8585]

@@Ashnflash I just ordered this and I love that you mentioned adding the other magna doodle stickers to the outside of the other doors. I'm definitely doing that.

[@leftyyy23]

The 2 words you've said the most are without a doubt "iconic" and "neat"

[@IceWarm]

Ross's apartment would be great, maybe the fountain could be a set too.

[@Spectahman2.0]

That 1x2 shopping list print isn't new, it's a frequently used in the (minidolls) Friends sets

[@Ashnflash]

You're the first person to mention this lol

[@desiwitfield8443]

I was thinking the same thing

[@Keemoy]

I love how you can tell he’s a massive friends fan

[@sckidda]

A different set with bedrooms and bathrooms would be insane like an expansion

[@thisisbonkers]

Theirs a few things I'm nitpicky with about this set, mainly the windows in Monica's apartment and the doors on the outside should be green. But apart from that I absolutely love it and can't wait to get mine.

[@naterosen9786]

The floor in the hallway should also be green

[@miriam1478]

I love the reference to Billund on the poster at 6:52. The city where Lego Group has its head quaters I believe and where the first Legoland themepark opened. I know the original poster has NY but that’s a cool little easter egg

[@schultz9443]

14:47 The red stud might be the puck which Ross picked up from the hockey game

[@cleodyskies2303]

I’m pretty sure the black thing that looked like a speaker in Joey and Chandlers apartment was Ross’ dehumidifier 😂 subtle reference for sure

[@grantperry5180]

Tbh the Gladys painting face print looks more accurate to Monica than the actual Monica face print

[@musicmeister075]

When Chandler was shown at 17:47 it instantly reminded me of when he said to Monica ‘you’re messy!’ Which made me laugh

[@timderksen84]

the thing that looks like a speaker is actualy the unit where joey and chandler keep their cd's in.

[@alli457]

That's what I thought too, they should've included some tiles to represent CDs though (it looks a little odd without them). Plus we could've gotten Chandler's 2 copies of the Annie soundtrack!

[@zeonsmess]

Loved the review and glad you built it on stream!

[@GabMacedoo]

You’re on fire Man! Putting nice video after video this week! Keep up the amazing job

[@Ashnflash]

I'm trying 😁

[@kennethjames5011]

The pad of paper is Monica’s g-spot “7” bit

[@carsonmilne5836]

Yes! I just received my set today! It looks so cool and very identical to the actual apartments on the show! Would definately recommend!

[@lilyblossom1240]

Sad we didn’t get the girly clock lamp that Rachel got when Heckles died.

[@claretbricks1954]

14:50 maybe that red piece is that last condom they fight over 😂😂😂

[@LiLi-lg9vl]

that make sense 😂

[@mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm316]

This set is amazing, if I was t broke I would buy right away, but imma work something out with my parents. Loved building central perk and hope to get one of these soon. Have a great day

[@airwaves7]

The only thing missing are the friends intro with the fountain and Ross and Phoebe's apartment.

[@JohnnyLeyenda]

I would have liked to see both apartments complete, but separate maybe. I think it's a lovely set but it could have been much nicer in 2 parts

[@mmreviews2669]

The ticket I believe is a reference to when he's trying to get away from Janice and he asks for a fake ticket to Yemen I could be wrong though

[@JoMotionStudios]

ashnflash: so this is the boys apartment, OHHH.... MAIIIIII... me: GAAD! ashnflash: GOODNESS me: :(

[@Ashnflash]

Sorry lol

[@thedarknight9157]

I can't believe they included Galdys. That alone sells this set for me 😂

[@Spectahman2.0]

Just the idea of Lego having two different themes with the exact same name.

[@Ashnflash]

Ahahah ya

[@Alexitty17]

Nobody told me life was going to be this way

[@dangerard7900]

the milk is from joey's commercial, the milk drinking was with a gallon of milk

[@Wilyum-qs9bv]

Im curios how well they would stack if you wanted to Moc up an actual building including the central perk

[@andrewgeyer2602]

Central perk was actually to the right of it during filming. But it would be cool to have multiple floors or buildings, Ross’s apartment and maybe ugly naked guys under him

[@leeriches8841]

Would be cool af. Don't forget a road would need to be added outside for Phoebes yellow taxi and Joeys VD posters 😂

[@duckydoeslego8913]

Oh my god!! I love this set so much!! The one I ordered said it’s in transit so can’t wait to build this 😆

[@jacobshendi5093]

And now, to reference Friends and 3rd Rock from the Sun: Oh. My. God. It's gorgeous!

[@nicksimms3771]

The black thing in the corner next to Pat the dog is supposed to be the CD rack I think even though in the show it’s purple (that’s the only thing that’s ever in that corner throughout the series, and the ridges on the side seem like they could represent the jewel case spines. Also the reason for two pizza boxes is because ‘two pizzas!’ is ‘the Joey Special’

[@daybyday1018]

i think the open mouth side of phoebes face is her "oh no.." line

[@LextheRobot]

If Rachel's in the outfit specifically from the episode "The One Where the Monkey Gets Away", why doesn't the set include that new monkey piece/fig?

[@hsss1]

I added leggo bananas to the balcony (easy to get ), a nintendo and controllers to Joeys room and afew other tweaks. My Walter White mixing Blue Crystal (28cm tall) is my fave though.

[@gunnerstunner2804]

Im pretty sure the sink is supposed to be built like this, im pretty sure it looks like that in the show where its seppareted

[@Ashnflash]

But then the part under the faucet doesn't have a separator. Idk though. Maybe 🤷‍♂️

[@themoosehoof]

I think they should’ve made the apartments separately and included all the rooms

[@olivertreesbowlcut9769]

They should do more sitcom sets. I'd love to see some "newer" ones like sets from the Big Bang Theory or How I met your mother

[@potatosoupgirl]

Funny, I was watching How I met Your Mother before I found this

[@alli457]

There just aren't as many sitcoms being produced these days, especially some popular enough for Lego to sell a bunch of sets.

[@bingusthecat8216]

I feel like the comic book store from the big bang would be great and the bar from himym

[@olivertreesbowlcut9769]

@@bingusthecat8216 oh yeah I'd love to see the McLaren's and the comic book store or even another 2 apartments set with Penny's, Lennard's and Sheldon's Apartments

[@elenaweinberger]

i would have absolutely loved it to be with the bed and bathrooms, that would be sooo perfect! but i love that they made the balcony and monicas clutter room! also i would love a small set of the intro with the fountain and the couch, one with the apartment of ross and one with phoebes 😍 apartment'

[@COUPLEOFHORRORZFAN]

Who Else wants a Central Perk Review and References because that holds my two favorite lego Minifigs Ever Chandler from the one with the thumb and Ross from I don’t know!

[@MonteaDavid]

that red brick may be a reference to monicas red racecar bed? since the bedrooms didnt make it in

[@abrildavalos8056]

Friends is my favorite show can’t wait to get the lego

[@camwithextra0023]

The rugs come out because if you didn't have room to display the entire set you can display the rugs anywhere else.

[@Babagonoush23]

I’m gonna say this show was very iconic

[@MoroxyProductions]

Who agrees with me. They need to make friends a complete theme and make Ross's apartment and Ross's lift and slide car. I would buy all those.

[@stitch-bricks]

Ash: Oh My go- Me: GOD Ash: oodness

[@VKARAD96]

Very minor detail but they messed up the recliners in chandler and joeys apartment. They were black in the start with the entertainment centre joey built and brown with the entertain centre chandler bought(shown in the set). It would’ve been more accurate if they gave brown recliners. But they black ones are great too I think they’re mixing and matching all timelines in the apartmen

[@robotscrapyard]

The checklist is a reference to the infamous 7 erogenous zones scene 🤣

[@tubetop123]

Other than some special pieces you could totally make this on your own

[@letlotloradikariki6051]

The balcony should have had a lottery ticket

[@kiahmadison8541]

I have this set. I just got it for my birthday. Has a few issues and would be great if there were more outfits.

[@alli457]

I just went to The Friends Experience this past weekend, so this set couldn't have come at a better time

[@lbricks7631]

6:45 I think that it is the cd rack, or vhs rack.

[@Y0ung.earl.07]

I don’t even watch friends and I’m probably doing to get this It’s such a good set

[@shellhickin2886]

I have the Friends coffee shop, central perk, so I can't wait to get this set! Who doesn't love Friends, and whoever they may be they're crazy lol!

[@MNewsTime]

Myself and everyone else would have paid double to have 3 bedrooms. I’d love a set of their roof/ patio area too. It’s more of a fire escape but I swear there was a bit of walking space

[@Alexander_l322]

Buy a lighting kit for this set and the spot lights will actually work and make it better. I got one for central perk and it’s bought it to life. I will get this set and the lighting kit but it’s all quite expensive, over £200 for everything.

[@EvergreenVB]

Is the beam wobbly as a reference to how it isn't always present in the show?

[@r3mdh]

7:51 DVDs came out in 1997, which was before they had the motorized open/closed entertainment cabinet, so don’t discount that they could have had a DVD player.

[@JACKFIORILLO]

I know they already have a Jerry’s apartment set planned so this can’t happen, but I would love a set that had Jerry and Kramer’s apartments connected like this.

[@cornjobb]

kramer's apartment? which version? the merv griffin set? the B&B where asian tourists stayed in his dresser drawers?

[@potatosoupgirl]

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT!!!!!!!! There is going to be a reunion this year?!!!!

[@alli457]

End of this month, it'll be on HBO Max

[@Jush0520]

They should have included a ms. Pac-Man arcade game Machine

[@CD-nc3gs]

I know this would be so much easier said than done, but I think Lego should just create an entire rebooted, licensed theme "Lego Studios" and create a bunch of classic TV sets with different classic television characters, references, etc. etc. How cool of a collection could that become!

[@mike.94]

MacGyver!

[@stacyr.8585]

The Muppets theater. Gods. I'd die. They could just have all my money for that.

[@bluegoose7832]

1:57 we were on the verge of greatness. We were this close.

[@kirboioproductions74398]

Cant wait for them to make an add on that they would call: the one with the two pairs of bedrooms

[@nickricci19]

You're right, big miss on not making the carpet the same sizes that woulda been hilarous

[@spentheplug]

My older sister would love this

[@joshuamorrison9670]

Holiday Armadillo, Gunther As Charlie Brown, Richard, Chandler as a Bunny Rabbit and all of the main crew young are my top pics for a CMF. Also, since Richard has word glasses before, the NEW Commissioner Gorden head and hair would be good for a custom of Richard, I'm gonna do that now

[@joshuamorrison9670]

Worn glasses, I mean

[@DanielRamirez-vn2db]

Considering ordering either this set or the Central Perk Set. The one thing I don't like is Phoebe's hair and that it looks more basic when compared to the Central Perk Phoebe. Both sets have their pros and cons but it's also price that's concerning me too. Hopefully I can make a decision eventually.

[@raphaelcarvalhobezerra6913]

I think it missed the desert Rachel makes in that Thanks Giving episode

[@purpleYamask]

Im sure it's already been commented by now, but the ridged brick upright in the corner by Pat The Dog is a CD rack.

[@AWOLsSoldier]

If it feels not very complete its better if you build it yourself, you have to build instruction with ur mind

[@JoshuaBattenMusic]

6:46 the black jagged piece is a CD rack

[@Ashnflash]

Thank you :)

[@kapoorhouseatl]

if they did one apartment per set they coulda included bedrooms
