A LEGO set that instantly has you saying “Have mercy!”
Kids of the 80s and 90s practically grew up in the Tanner household. Whether it was being charmed by Uncle Jessie’s killer personality, humored by Uncle Joey’s quips, or just feeling the warmth of single dad Danny Tanner’s approach to parenting, the Tanner house felt like home to all of us. LEGO builder obiblock considers himself one of those kids, having religiously followed the sitcom Full House through his young years. As an homage to the TV show, obiblock recreated the Tanner home in stunning detail out of LEGO bricks. The LEGO Ideas Full House set comes with a detailed model of the home’s living room and kitchen – the most iconic and memorable rooms on the set – complete with furniture, decor, tiny details like paintings, and minifigures of all the main characters, including Danny, Uncle Jesse, Uncle Joey, D.J., Stephanie, Michelle, and Aunt Becky. Sorry, but Kimmy Gibbler didn’t make it on the list!
Designer: obiblock
“I built this set out of my love for Full House and its significant impact on pop culture,” says designer obiblock. “The show has a special place in the hearts of millions, offering timeless family values and memorable humor. As a lifelong LEGO enthusiast, I wanted to merge my passion for building with my appreciation for this iconic series. Recreating the Tanner home allowed me to relive the nostalgia and share it with other fans, both of the show and LEGO.”
Although obiblock doesn’t mention how many pieces make the set, it does contain a fair amount of detail, down to the plants on the kitchen window, and even the front and back door. The set features the very nucleus of the home – the living room, with its signature couch, fireplace, and the staircase behind that leads to everyone’s individual bedrooms. A door to the right guides you to the kitchen, with the coffee table, kitchen island, and the backdoor through which Kimmy would often make her entrance every few episodes.
Even the characters on the show are represented beautifully. Danny and his 3 daughters can be found in the kitchen (Michelle has her own stuffed teddy too), along with Uncle Joey. Meanwhile, Uncle Jesse is spotted on the living room couch, wooing Aunt Becky with dulcet tunes on the guitar. The characters can obviously be moved around, recreating different scenes from the popular sitcom.
obiblock’s MOC (My Own Creation) can currently be found on the LEGO Ideas forum, where fans submit their own ideas for new LEGO creations and kits. Just shy of 2,000 votes, the LEGO Ideas Full House kit is well on its way to hitting the coveted 10,000 vote mark, following which it may just get turned into a retail kit for all Full House fans to buy and proudly put on display!
