The Friends Apartment set has leaked, looks like a fairly big footprint so that may put a few people off.

Sorry, I'm really not seeing the appeal of those I'm afraid. I'm sure they'll sell for 4x what you paid though.

If you're an Instagram user follow #legoleaks, most sets crop up there (in between all the rubbish) at least a few weeks before they are officially announced.

£135 apparently. I thinking looks awesome and there’s loads of little nods to individual episodes

It genuinely looks awesome - It's my partner's birthday next month and I might get this for her. I've nowhere to put it so it'll be her problem to find somewhere in her house for it hehe

Have a backup gift idea in mind, that set hasn't even been officially announced yet let alone available to purchase..!

Looks Good but personally I’d avoid like the plague - the Central Perk coffee shop set is the worst build I have ever bought - very boring and only took an hr or so to complete it.

Ooh, I'm behind the times and stand corrected...

As with all of the new sets folks who want one will have to be quick off the mark to get in the initial tranche!

I'm sure I saw something about 17th May for VIP members.

Maybe I dreamed it ..

That was 1070 pieces, this is 2048. I agree it wasn't the most thrilling build, but it's a great display piece and this new one is crammed full of lovely touches for fans of the show.

I'm still voting for the Caterham as the worst Lego set I own, still no idea how that made it through certification given how fragile it is. Now boxed up in the loft, possibly missing a few bits!
