LEGO Friends Central Perk Keychains Now Available

by Thita (admin) on February 18, 2021

The #21319 LEGO Ideas Central Perk set has very popular with the fans of the TV show. If you don’t have it already, you can read our review here: LEGO Ideas Central Perk Set Review. But to recap, it’s an excellent set that faithfully recreates the setting and characters of the popular sitcom. In addition, the set is also fairly priced and quite affordable if you are just looking for useful minifigs, parts, accessories. I especially like the minifigs, as they have exclusive clothing that works for general city folks. You can still purchase the set at the LEGO Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.

Recently, LEGO also released six of the seven minifigs from the set as individual keychains; Ross Geller, Chandler Bing, Joey Tribbiani, Rachel Green, Monica Geller, and Phoebe Buffay. (The only character missing is Central Perk’s manager, Gunther.)

Each of the keychains features on one of the characters in minifig form, attached to a durable metal ring and chain. (Please note that the minifigure is permanently fixed to the metal chain and not meant to be removed.) The metal ring can be attached easily and securely to keys, backpacks and more. The entire key chains with the minifig measures over 3 in. (9 cm) long.

These keychains would make a terrific little gift for Friends fans young or old, including owners of the #21319 LEGO Ideas Central Perk set. The price for the keychains is the standard $5.99 per pack, and you can find them at the keychains section of the Online LEGO Shop.

What do you think? Are you a fan of the Friends TV show? Do you have the LEGO Ideas Central Perk set? How do you like it? And what do you think of these keychains? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below!

LEGO World Builder – Design Opportunities

in Community News

There are a couple of new opportunities on LEGO World Builder that I thought some of you may want to take advantage of. If you are not familiar with LEGO World Builder, you can read more about the platform via the links at the end of this post. In brief, LEGO World Builder is similar to LEGO Ideas, but instead of submitting ideas for potential future LEGO sets, it’s for submitting ideas for new LEGO entertainment content like web series, TV series, or even a full movie with product tie-ins, etc.

LEGO World Builder creators can post their own ideas and work with others to create the best content. At the same time, LEGO regularly monitors the platform for potential collaborations, and they occasionally also put out creative prompts and design opportunities. This means that they provide the topic, and they ask the LEGO World Builder community to develop the content. It’s similar to some of the LEGO Ideas contests where the winning project may get turned into a LEGO gift with purchase set or something similar. These opportunities are pretty exciting as it gives creative LEGO fans direct access to the LEGO creative team to collaborate on original stories, shows, and more. Currently, there are two such projects you can take on. Below are the details.

Build Your Own Marvel Mech-Inspired Worlds! – Creators, it’s time to suit up for your next adventure on LEGO World Builder! LEGO just launched a new creative prompt searching for Marvel-inspired worlds that incorporate the power of the Mech. When Captain America needs that extra boost, he trades his signature shield and jumps into his Mech cockpit. The mighty Thor is even mightier when he faces off against the most frightening enemies in his Mech Mjolnir. And Miles Morales ups his game with his Mech-generated electro-shock webs. LEGO invites you to create short story worlds that highlight the special capabilities of these high-powered suits! If you’re interested, visit this page: LEGO WORLD BUILDER – MARVEL CREATIVE PROMPT

Expand the LEGO World Builder Digital Library! – Women make the (LEGO) world go round! Calling all graphic designers, artists, photographers, and doodlers! Now is your chance to immortalize some of the world’s most iconic women on the LEGO World Builder platform with original banner images celebrating Women’s History Month. Earn $250 for each of your banners that’s selected to become a permanent part of the image library. The deadline for this project is February 28th. For more details on this design opportunity, visit this page: LEGO WORLD BUILDER – BANNER IMAGE DESIGN PROJECT

Also, remember that LEGO World Builder is full of interesting projects created by LEGO fans and other talented creators. Even if you don’t have an idea on your own, you might be able to contribute to some of the projects, so look around and see if anything catches your interest.

What do you think? Are you planning to participate in either of these opportunities? Feel free to share and discuss in the comment section below! And if you know someone else who might be interested, feel free to share with them as well.
