How I Met Your Mother seeks a spot on the LEGO sitcom slate

How I Met Your Mother is the latest LEGO sitcom set seeking a slot in the LEGO Ideas slate, racking up 10,000 supporters to reach the first 2025 review.

LEGO Ideas is no stranger to sitcom sets, with 21319 Central Perk, 21328 Seinfeld and 21336 The Office already under its belt. In fact, sitcom sets seem to be the one pool this theme centred on novelty is willing to frequently dive back into, and Ideas creators are clearly sitting up and taking note as more and more sitcom-based submissions are reaching the review stage.

The latest is Dreamnbricks’ How I Met Your Mother, a 1,400-piece recreation of Ted Mosby’s apartment from the ‘00s series. Built to roughly the same style and format as 21336 The Office, the model includes the apartment’s kitchen, living room and bathroom, along with Ted’s bedroom and Marshall and Lily’s bedroom. As you’d imagine for a set like this, it’s also crammed with Easter eggs from all nine seasons of the show.

The project pitches eight minifigures – Ted, Barney, Lily, Marshall, Robin, the eponymous mother, and Ted’s sons Penny and Luke) – and in its current form uses just five different stickers for additional details. The question now is twofold: is LEGO Ideas willing to return once more to the well of sitcom sets, and if so, does How I Met Your Mother have the same kind of enduring popularity as The Office, Friends and Seinfeld?

We’ll get the answers to those questions when LEGO Ideas announces the results of the first 2025 review towards the back end of the year. For now, check out all 22 projects gunning for a coveted LEGO Ideas release slot in this round (so far!) below.

I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that’s not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It’s like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then.
