The New Lego The Office Set’s 8 Best Easter Eggs

Lego’s new build of The Office is loaded with great details and inside jokes. Here are a few of our favorites.

Over nine seasons, the American version of The Office built up a vast catalogue of inside jokes, few of which escaped Lego’s attention when they built this model of the show’s set. Here are some of our favorite Dunder Mifflin details.

“JIM!!!” Season 1, Episode 1

When Jim encased Dwight’s stapler in a jello mold, the prank set the tone for the duo’s relationship for the rest of the series. Lego pulled off a fun homage by printing a stapler onto this translucent block. The expression on Lego Dwight’s face is great, too.

“It’s probably the thing I do best.” Season 5, Episode 36

In Season 5, we learn that Kevin’s homemade chili is one of the few things he does well. Unfortunately, we learn that fact right before he dumps the chili all over the floor, a bit well-captured here with a chili pot and chili-like pieces.

“I saw someone breaking the law and I interceded.” Season 3, Episode 19

No one will ever forget when Dwight saved Jim by pepper-spraying Roy. Lucky for Roy, Dwight didn’t resort to the deadlier items hidden around the office, like the throwing stars in his drawer captured here in Lego form.

“Somebody making soup?” Season 2, Episode 14

In one of the more memorable pranks, Todd Packer left Michael a “present” under his desk, one that would require a re-carpeting of his office. Lego left an homage under the desk, one that’s so subtle, you’ll only see it while you’re building. Thankfully, you can’t smell it.

“Did I stutter?” Season 4, Episode 16

Stanley’s habit of doing his crosswords during meetings was a long-running joke that led to the infamous “Did I Stutter?” episode. Now you can recreate the tension in miniature.

“You’re welcome.” Season 3, Episode 7

It’s not just the jello mold. More pranks are peppered throughout the set, like this fax for 8 a.m. Dwight from Future Dwight that led to him tackling Stanley to prevent him from drinking “poisoned” coffee.

“Who’s gonna give Kevin an award? Dunkin’ Donuts?” Season 2, Episode 1

Among the many details crammed onto Michael’s desk is a Dundie from the episode that got Pam banned from Chili’s for life.

“GET IT OFF!” Season 3, Episode 16

We’ll never forget this episode, in part because it’s the episode where Meredith contracted rabies (and Jim may have become a vampire) from a rogue bat flying around the office.
