Lego Ideas Sesame Street

A playset designed after the 123 Sesame Street apartment building and Hooper's Store built from Lego blocks was released on November 1, 2020. The Lego set is cataloged as item 21324, and #032 in the Lego Ideas series.
Consisting of 1,367 pieces, the set also includes minifigures of Big Bird on roller skates (with Radar), Cookie Monster, Ernie (and Rubber Duckie), Bert, Elmo (and Dorothy), and Oscar the Grouch in his trash can (with Slimey).
The exteriors of the two buildings are separated by the yard, the backs of which feature an open-faced cutaway with access to Ernie and Bert's bedroom and Elmo's bedroom, with Big Bird's nest (with Mr. Hooper's picture) featured to the side.
References to characters not featured as minifigures include Super Grover on the front page of a newspaper, Mr. Snuffleupagus, Zoe, Rosita, Abby Cadabby, Biff, Sully, Count von Count, Guy Smiley, Telly Monster, Teeny Little Super Guy, and The Martians. Other references include Pinball Number Count, Cooking With Oatmeal, a porridge shortage newspaper headline from Episode 4193, Bert's bottle cap and paperclip collections, Ernie's Twiddlebugs window box, and a note to Ivan Guerrero who submitted the idea to Lego.
Some of the minifigs were later released as keychains beginning in 2021.

The set began as an entry in Lego Ideas, a competition that allows Lego builders the opportunity to submit their Lego creations to be considered for an official product if their entry gains 10,000 votes on the Lego Ideas website. Designed by Ivan Guerrero from the Philippines,https://www.adobomagazine.com/digital-news/brand-business-lego-enthusiast-ivan-guerrero-is-on-his-way-to-where-the-air-is-sweet/ the set was first unveiled in October of 2017 and featured a detailed CGI mockup of 123 Sesame Street with several of the characters as mini-figs.
The project reached 10,000 votes in May 2019 and was announced the following September as a winning entry going into production. Lego Ideas stipulates that submissions must be designed with existing Lego pieces, so the mockup doesn't exactly represent the final product, which was designed by Ollie Gregory with graphic design by Crystal Fontan and minifig moulds by Jaime Sanchez, Stewart Whitehead, and Ann Chen.
Lego released the first teaser for the set on October 20, 2020.@LEGO_Group "Guess the characters coming to your street!" October 20, 2020 Throughout the project's campaign to garner 10,000 votes, Guerrero promoted the design on social media with several mockups that would not be included in the set.
