Everyone Is Awesome
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Everyone is Awesome is a Lego set released in 2021. The Lego product is the first designed to represent the LGBTQIA+ community. It was designed by Matthew Ashton and is themed to represent a pride flag and transgender pride flag, and black and brown colors to represent LGBT people of color.[1][2]

The set has 346 pieces.[3] It comes with 11 minifigures in colors representing pride flags. Six represent colors of the rainbow pride flag (Gilbert Baker's 1978 "classic" flag with red, orange, yellow, green, dark blue, and purple[4]), while three (in pale blue, white, and pink) represent the transgender pride flag, and two (in black and brown) represent the diversity of races, ethnicities, and backgrounds within the queer community.[1] The black and brown stripes mirror Philadelphia's pride flag introduced in 2017.[4]
Each figure has a different hairstyle, also representing the LGBT and Lego community's diversity.[5] None of the eleven figures have specified genders, except for the purple minifigure, meant to represent a drag queen, with a "highly stylized beehive wig".[1]
The Lego set measures about 10 cm × 13 cm (4 in × 5 in); it is designed with a base and back wall, to fit on a shelf or windowsill.[5]
The set name is inspired by "Everything Is Awesome", a song from The Lego Movie, a feature film released in 2014.[3] The set designer, Matthew Ashton, was an executive producer for the film.[6]
