LEGO set 40516, Everyone Is Awesome, is a display model built around coloured stripes and 11 monochrome minifigures. Released in 2021 under the Icons theme, it contains 346 pieces and presents a deliberately simple, graphic arrangement.
Everyone Is Awesome has a distinct place in Icons because it is not centred on a vehicle, building, or narrative scene. Its subject is colour, alignment, and representation.
The build relies on repetition, colour sequencing, and a base that supports the model as a stable display object.
It is best suited to display, to collectors interested in monochrome minifigures, and to builders looking for a compact decorative model. Within Icons, it stands apart as an abstract and symbolic set rather than a detailed replica or a play focused scene.
