NederlandsThe iconic comedy of Mr. Bean could soon be immortalized in LEGO form, thanks to the fan-designed "Mr. Bean’s Suitcase" by P.D.G. This LEGO Ideas project not only captures the quirky charm of the character but also recreates some of his most unforgettable scenes, blending humor with clever LEGO craftsmanship.
A Closer Look at the Set
At the heart of this concept is Mr. Bean’s iconic brown suitcase. With its plaid detailing and functional interior, the suitcase serves as both a display piece and a playful diorama packed with references to the series. Alongside four minifigures, Mr. Bean, Irma Gobb, a Queen’s Guard, and the mysterious driver of the blue three-wheeler, the set includes props and vehicles central to Mr. Bean's escapades.
Recreating Iconic Mr. Bean Moments
This LEGO set stands out for its ability to bring Mr. Bean’s most memorable antics into the hands of fans. Here’s a look at how some of these moments are cleverly incorporated into the build:
The Blue Three-Wheeler and Parking Chaos
The infamous blue Reliant Regal Supervan makes its appearance in this set, recalling the ongoing feud between Mr. Bean and the unlucky three-wheeled vehicle. One of the standout moments captured is from the parking garage, where Mr. Bean’s Mini Cooper comically outmaneuvers the blue van, leaving it tipping precariously. The blue three-wheeler, with its tilting design, is instantly recognizable and sure to bring a smile to fans.
The Armchair Ride
Arguably one of the most hilarious Mr. Bean scenes, the set features his green Mini Cooper with the detachable armchair strapped to the roof. Fans will remember Mr. Bean navigating traffic from his lofty seat, controlling the car with brooms and strings. This absurd moment, a hallmark of the show’s humor, is faithfully recreated with a detailed Mini Cooper build and the armchair attachment, complete with a LEGO broom to steer!
Queens Guard Makeover
One of Mr. Bean’s more mischievous moments is his interaction with the Queen’s Guard, whom he hilariously transforms for a photo opportunity. The set includes the guard’s uniform and accessories, as well as the makeshift additions Mr. Bean humorously applies, like the green branches sticking out of the guard’s bearskin hat. This moment perfectly encapsulates Mr. Bean’s cheeky yet harmless sense of humor.
The Turkey Incident
No Mr. Bean set would be complete without his ">Christmas mishap with the turkey. The set includes a minifigure headpiece depicting Mr. Bean with a turkey stuck over his face, recreating the moment when his over-enthusiasm during holiday preparations leads to hilarity. Fans can also reenact the scene where Irma Gobb, his patient companion, reacts to Mr. Bean’s antics during their Christmas celebration.
Mr. Bean Stuck in a Postbox
Another laugh-out-loud moment captured in this set is Mr. Bean’s misadventure with a postbox. While trying to mail a letter, his clumsy determination leads to him getting stuck inside the box. This scene, complete with a detailed red postbox and a letter accessory, highlights Mr. Bean’s unique ability to turn the simplest tasks into chaotic spectacles. It’s a perfect addition to the set, showcasing the everyday hilarity that fans know and love.
