Lego’s latest crossover set is based on none other than the hit series The Office. If you’re a fan of the show — and I know there are a lot of you out there — you’ll want to get out your magnifying glass, because the set is full of callbacks to some of the most iconic things from The Office.
The set layout is a remarkably detailed replica featuring some of the most visited locations in the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company offices, including the front desk, Jim and Dwight’s desks, Michael Scott’s office, and the conference room.

But look a little closer — seriously, it’s a 5K image that you can download or tap and zoom above — and you’ll just keep finding details lovingly recreated in Lego form. Michael Scott’s World’s Best Boss mug? There it is. Dwight’s stapler in jelly? Hmm. Is Stanley eating a bagel? He sure is. That picture above the chair in the lobby? It looks like a Lego version of the watercolor painting of Pam’s office. Kevin even spilled his chili on the floor.
The 1,164-piece set — which measures over 3 inches high, 12 inches wide and 10 inches deep — also includes 15 minifigures of some of the most famous office workers from the show. You can see the whole group in the picture below. (Though I wish Erin, who was a key character in the later seasons, was also included. And Lego says Andy isn’t included because he left to work on his “management skills.”)

Just enjoy these photos of the Lego set. The level of detail is amazing. And there will even be additional stickers and accessories included. “We didn’t want to hold back on references,” Lego’s Chris Perron said in a statement.

The set became a reality after receiving 10,000 votes through the Lego Ideas program. The original submitter, Jaijai Lewis, has been working on the project since 2014. It will be available for pre-order Friday exclusively on Walmart’s website in the US and Canada and on Lego.com internationally ahead of an October 1 release. (You’ll also be able to buy it at Walmart when it officially goes on sale.) It’s not cheap at $119.99, but for an Office superfan, it might be worth every Schrute Buck.
Update July 15, 12:47 PM ET: Added why Andy is not included.
