Synthesized Verdict

"A BrickScore of 77.6 reflects a set that delivers exactly what it promises for its audience: 634 buyers give it 4.67 out of 5, and every review comes back to the same delight in the Easter egg density and minifigure lineup. The one near-universal wish is for an expansion covering the rest of the Dunder Mifflin floor plan."

The Office Ideas set (21336) earned a BrickScore of 77.6 and a Recommended verdict, backed by uniformly enthusiastic buyer reviews from a dedicated fan base. Brickset reviewers gave it perfect scores across value and build experience, and the LEGO.com community of 634 raters gave it 4.67 out of 5 with a 93% recommendation rate. The dominant theme across all reviews is that fans of the show find the Easter egg density and minifigure lineup enormously satisfying, while the universal shared complaint is that the set covers only part of the Dunder Mifflin floor plan.

Ecosystem

10291 Queer Eye The Fab 5 Loft — The Office set's footprint is much larger than the Queer Eye Fab 5 Loft, which is almost the same in terms of price, so you're really getting quite a sizable set

28 Seinfeld — The Office is the 6th LEGO set based on a pop culture/TV series, following the F.R.I.E.N.D.S Central Perk set, Big Bang Theory F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Apartments, 21328 Seinfeld

LEGO Ideas Seinfeld set — Even though the reviewer is not as much of a fan of The Office as they are of Seinfeld, they still consider this a great tribute to the show and worthy addition to a collection.

Value drivers

Jay's Brick Blog: All 15 minifigures are exclusive to this set; they're the true heart and soul of the set. The minifigures are the set's main drawcards.

The Brothers Brick: The 15 minifigures with multiple expressions and accurate character representation, particularly the main cast (Michael, Dwight, Jim, Pam) with dual expressions and character-specific props

Exclusivity

Jay's Brick Blog: LEGO.com / LEGO Stores exclusive

Brickset Reviews: LEGO Ideas set; available from LEGO.com from 1st October 2022

Resale

Jay's Brick Blog: Expected to be extremely popular as we head into Christmas, and likely to have strong aftermarket value given the high demand from fans and the exclusive nature of the minifigures.

Brickset Reviews: Not explicitly stated; however, reviewer notes it is based on popular TV series and expresses it will be very popular with fans.
