MANILA - Around two and a half years ago, Filipino filmmaker and avid Jim Henson fan Ivan Guerrero submitted his design for a LEGO Sesame Street set.

In 2019, he saw it raked in 10,000 votes from fans and supporters alike through a LEGO community-based website in his bid to have it produced by the Danish toymaker.

"It was very important for me during the formative years. It taught me a lot about reading, writing, speaking in Spanish, counting, and so on," he said.Watch more in iWantTFC For designs like Guerrero’s to be approved, they have to reach 10,000 votes. Upon reaching 10,000 votes, that’s when LEGO puts the design up for consideration, with the designs going through a "very, very selective process" before being proposed for commercial use.

Guerrero's design submitted to LEGO had around 2,000 pieces to assemble with 14 minifigures—the LEGO versions of the Sesame Street characters—set around the apartment building seen in many of the program's episodes. Compared to the base design for minifigures—which consists of the standard studded-head, body, and legs—the minifigures for this playset have an original mold, the very first LEGO playset to have one.

The set is designed to be built by people 18 and above, but Guerrero said the set is also for older children and their parents who want to build if they want to take a trip down memory lane and bond at the same time.
