The only fitting adjective to describe this LEGO kit is Legen… wait for it… Dary!
For nine years, How I Met Your Mother captured global audiences with a distinctive blend of humor, heartfelt storytelling, and unforgettable characters. It developed a devoted following that continues through reruns and streaming, as people revisit the Manhattan apartment, the bar around the corner, and the inside jokes that made viewers laugh, cry, and find comfort in a group of friends navigating life, love, and dreams.
Now, fans can relive the nostalgia of Mosby and his gang’s shenanigans through this LEGO Ideas set that recreates the show’s beloved apartment in remarkable detail. With around 1,300 pieces and six minifigures (plus a goat), this model includes a kitchen, living room, bathroom, and both Ted’s and Marshall and Lily’s bedrooms. Each room presents subtle nods and references to the show’s memorable episodes, giving builders a hands-on way to celebrate the series’ enduring legacy.
Designer: Dreamnbricks
Picture this: Ted’s iconic apartment, recreated with stunning attention to detail using approximately 1,300 LEGO pieces. Fans of the show will recognize every corner of this familiar setting, from the lovingly cluttered kitchen to the cozy living room where so many of those legendary moments took place. Marshall and Lily’s bedroom, Ted’s personal retreat, and even a tiny bathroom—each room is a nod to the set that became a second home for millions of viewers. The HIMYM LEGO Ideas set comes from the mind of Dreamnbricks, a LEGO builder who wanted to pay tribute to one of his favorite TV series of all time.
Of course, no tribute to How I Met Your Mother would be complete without its iconic characters. The set includes six minifigures: Ted, Marshall, Lily, Barney, Robin, Missy the goat, and the mysterious woman who Ted finally marries, standing with her iconic yellow umbrella. These figures bring the spirit of the show to life, with just the right balance of charm and detail to capture their personalities. Barney, for example, looks like he’s mid-scheme in his legendary suit, while Robin’s figure feels ready to belt out a hit as Robin Sparkles. The only recurring characters missing from the set are Ted’s children, who often feature in the intro of each show.
The LEGO Ideas kit comes filled with easter eggs from the show. The apartment is littered with familiar imagery from the blue French horn, the pineapple, the Intervention sign in the living room, Barney’s Playbook, and even the yellow umbrella tucked into the scene. Designed like a studio set, the LEGO kit also comes with the HIMYM placard on top, along with studio lighting placed along the edge of the walls.
The design also emphasizes practicality, which is fitting for a sitcom built on the everyday magic of friendship. The apartment’s modular layout makes it easy to customize, giving builders the freedom to recreate their favorite moments or even imagine new scenarios. Want to stage the slap bet? Go ahead. Reenact the goat incident? Absolutely. It’s a set that’s as playful as it is nostalgic, capturing the heart of the series while letting fans make it their own.
But why now? Why does How I Met Your Mother deserve its own LEGO set almost a decade after its final episode aired? Because the show’s impact hasn’t faded. Its reruns and streaming presence keep it alive for new generations, who laugh, cry, and cringe their way through Ted’s winding path to love. This LEGO project taps into that enduring legacy, offering fans a tangible way to celebrate a story that’s as much about the journey as the destination.
