LEGO - Ideas Central Perk | Set 21319

For me, the Central Perk is one of the best LEGO sets I have ever built, alongside the Tree House and Rivendell. I never quite understood why it was available with such high discounts in Europe for such a long time.

I am not a fan of the Friends sitcom, but I am to this day fascinated by this amazing set. The attention to detail, the inspiring building techniques, especially to achieve the sloping walls, and the charming color choices, all impressed me during the build.

I can confidently recommend this set, but just grabbing the digital instructions to be inspired by the building techniques is a fun and free activity on its own. From the sofa to the counter, the carpets to the coffee machine, Milan Madge and team have delivered a masterpiece here.

LEGO originally priced the set quite decently, but with the insane discounts back in the day, it was a real bargain. But even today, it can still be purchased for around the MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price), which is worth it.
