ddavid Posted June 9, 2021 That's quite unexpected news/leaks, but all signs point to a 10291 Queer Eye Apartment Set in August. Tan France's distinctive hair is featured in the 40516 Everyone is Awesome in blue, and It's really likely, that this set will be released during the LegoCon Convention. What do you think? Is this a good product idea or is it just to offset the primarily straight white cis shows like Friends and Seinfeld with some episodes that are controversial by today's standards (Seinfeld in particular)?

TheMainBricker Posted June 9, 2021 Seems a niche idea, probably a fake rumour. Someone's taken the idea of Friends apartments and mixed it with the gay pride set to come up with this rumour. The SW CMF rumour was fake too. Find it rather strange you mention "cis", surely all the Queer Eye men are "cis" too? Don't know much about the show, I doubt a reality show has anything distinctive like an apartment and much of an audience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kallego Posted June 9, 2021 The rumor goes back to some Czech shops who have 10291 listed under this name. The question is how reliable these shops are. Where the piece count that circulates on IG comes from is not clear to me. So either this is made up or there is another source... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drewdotexe Posted June 9, 2021 I suppose it could be a fun set but I don't really remember much of the apartment. Hopefully they have fun outfits on and Tan has a french tuck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since the ‘Fab Five Loft’ features in the show - it makes sense as an idea. Fans will riot if Tan’s minifig doesn’t have a French Tuck though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Cube Posted June 9, 2021 I had an information about this set from the same person who told me about that Sakaarian Iron Man, which turned out to be true. So I don't have any doubts about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I don’t remember that apartment much when I watched it. Edited June 9, 2021 by DBlegonerd7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drewdotexe Posted June 9, 2021 I imagine it will be like a couch area, maybe a small kitchen for Antoni and a TV or something with some cameras like the Friends set? Maybe Bruley? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drewdotexe Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) Such a good idea! I really hope that we see some new hairpieces - JVN could have Phoebe's hair in a browner colour, Tan should surely have the one from the Everyone is Awesome set that is so clearly his hair. I know this set is just a rumour at this point but that hairpiece existing really lends credence to it. Edited June 9, 2021 by drewdotexe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’d been thinking of the Elizabeth Swan piece for JVN, but your suggestion is better. Even better if it comes with an alternate ‘man bun’. I’d say Bobby gets the spiky sleepyhead hair, and Antoni gets the pretty standard slicked back hair they used for Lockhart/Joey ... Karamo might get a nice hat.

2lazeetomakeaname Posted June 11, 2021 This is one of the most bizarre LEGO rumors ever. I'll be interested to see how it sells. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ddavid Posted June 13, 2021 Yep, me too. Especially because they should have released it at the beginning of Pride Month, and not at the very end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1234567892022 Posted June 16, 2021 God, I hope this isn't becoming a trend for Lego to venture into political adult content. As a gay AFOL, I'll stick to my Lego Harry Potter, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to mention JK’s forays into social commentary. Yet, sure, QE is the bad influence. 🙄 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll also be sticking to Harry Potter, but always like to see lego branch out into new licences, which greatly improves the range of flesh toned faces, new hair pieces and torsos for custom figs. I may pick up a few of these if the QE set is for real and they suit HP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
