The kit was designed and supported by 10,000 consumers to bring it to life, and consists of 1,164 pieces along with [fifteen minifig characters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minifigure-vending-machine) inspired by the various cast members. The kit comes with a range of accessories and details which all call to mind specific themes and moments from the show.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Entertainment Merchandise:** The entertainment industry can capitalize on beloved TV shows by creating high-quality, detailed merchandise for fans to collect.
