The Absolutely Iconic Mr. Bean Driving A Car Moment Gets Recreated Using LEGO Bricks
Dont come at me, but Mr. Bean is easily one of the top comedies of all time. One man, zero dialogues, endless possibilities Rowan Atkinson gave us a gem of a TV series that transcended age, race, nationality, or language. Everyone understood, laughed at, and loved Mr. Bean, which makes this particular LEGO set an absolute blast of incredible nostalgia.If you grew up with a TV in the 90s, you knew this Mr. Bean skit. The tight-lipped quirky character just bought an armchair, only to realize that he had to carry the armchair back with him in his tiny Mini Cooper car. Rather than collapsing the rear seats and shoving the armchair into the cars boot, Bean came up with one of TVs most ingenious MacGyvered hacks he would drive the car while seated in his armchair Google Waymo had nothing on Mr. Beans sheer genius.Designer: TOMOELLThe entire skit, which lasted a few minutes, involved Bean setting his car up by tying the armchair on top, and then figuring out how he would drive the car from up top. A rope tied to the steering wheel, a brick on the accelerator, and a mop pressing the brake whenever necessary nothing was remotely practical, but Bean pulled it off. Stuff fell apart, his car nearly had an accident multiple times, but the episode ended with Bean reaching home in one piece, along with his car and his new armchair. The LEGO set captures Beans journey with impeccable detail.The LEGO Ideas build comes from the mind of TOMOELL, a LEGO enthusiast and 90s TV connoisseur who wanted to pay tribute to one of his favorite TV characters of all time. The show ran for only 5 years, but had a massive impact on our culture, and on TOMOELL himself, who built the set as a part of LEGOs 90s Throwback challenge.It isnt clear how many bricks make up this Mr. Bean set, but look closely and its just a treasure-trove of detail. The cars built out immaculately, with everything from the perfect lime green color palette (including the black hood) to even the latch on the door, which was how Bean locked his car. Up top is the armchair with the Sold tag, Mr. Bean himself in his iconic attire, and a face that perfectly captures Beans inimitable hilarious expression eyes, eyebrows, and all. The Bean figure can be articulated, and the set even comes with the broom, rope, and roller that form a part of the props in the episode. Bean is even accompanied by Teddy, his stuffed toy best friend.TOMOELLs submission can be found on the LEGO Ideas website along with a bunch of other submissions in LEGOs Build Your Nostalgia 90s Throwback! challenge like scenes from X-Files, Beavis & Butthead, Captain Planet, and Jumanji among others.
