“You know what the best part of this is?”
“No, what?”
“When they take their keys and leave!”
“DHO HO HO HO HO”
Have you ever wanted a Lego-ised pair of elderly Muppets to judge you as you grab your keys? Well, now you can have that very thing! Introducing, Statler & Waldorf’s Balcony Key Rack!
The build of this set depicts the iconic balcony occupied by hecklers Statler & Waldorf, as they offer their ever memorable commentary on the Muppets Show. Able to hang on walls, inspired by sets such as Starry Night and Gotham City, this build provides three sturdy rods to hang your keys from. Yes, even to my own surprise, the structural integrity proves strong enough to withstand several rounds of keys! To comply with Lego Ideas’ guidelines, these renders use Lego constructed keys, but rest assured, this is intended to hold non-Lego, real world keys, and Lego keys are not the sole use of this set!
The Muppets have a place in the hearts of fans across the generations, from old to young. Not only does this set make for a delightful display piece, but it also acts as a functional household item, encouraging people to express their Lego creativity and childlike fun, while also being smart and “grown up”! Within 20 hours of uploading photos to r/Lego, the post received over 35k upvotes, and over 250 comments. I initially built this set just for fun, but upon seeing the overwhelming support for it online, I’ve been convinced to submit it here!
Minifigs of course include Statler & Waldorf. The build is an affordable, fun, and enticing set for fans of Lego, Muppets, and adults wanting to bring a spark of fun to their routine!
Keys not included. Total build without keys is 219 pieces.
