LEGO® 10352 The Simpsons™: Krusty Burger

When LEGO® finally returned to Springfield with Krusty Burger, I felt like it was 2014 all over again. The Simpsons was one of the few American animated series that aired regularly where I grew up — so these characters were a window into a strange, hilarious world. Seeing this greasy icon of Springfield brick-built felt instantly nostalgic.

First Impressions

It’s been nearly a decade since the last official Simpsons sets, and expectations were high. The design team leaned into that familiar greasy-fast-food charm with a detailed exterior, a full interior kitchen, and a ton of jokes hidden in plain sight. It’s smaller than the old Kwik-E-Mart, but it still captures that Springfield humor perfectly.

What’s in the Box & Build Flow

There’s a nice rhythm to this build. You start with the base, work your way through the restaurant’s guts (fryer, counter, and booths), and cap it off with that iconic Krusty Burger sign. The roof lifts off easily, and the whole model folds open for access. It’s one of those builds where every bag gives you something new — no dull repetition.

Techniques & Details

A fryer area with a “Krusty grease” leak running out the back.
A drive-thru window, complete with a speaker box showing “Next Order: 700 Krusty Burgers.”
Stickers galore — over 40 — including joke menu items, posters, and the classic “out of order” ice cream machine.
The pink Krusty-clown car parked outside is a great mini-build in itself.

Minifigures

The minifig lineup is a fun mix. Sideshow Bob and Officer Lou finally debut in LEGO form — both fantastic sculpts. Krusty gets a farmer variant, while Homer, Bart, and Lisa return with slightly tweaked prints. I do wish Marge and Maggie were included for a “core family” display, but the mix still feels lively.

Display & Play Value

Once assembled, it’s a display standout — colorful, funny, and full of Springfield personality. The folding layout means you can show off both the front signage and interior booths. As a play piece, it’s light but fun: you can pose figures, “cook” burgers, and even park that clown car at the drive-thru. It’s not a modular, but it sits nicely beside Icons sets or the classic Simpsons House.

Comparisons

Compared to the LEGO® Simpsons House (71006) or Kwik-E-Mart (71016), this one’s smaller and denser. It trades suburban realism for fast-food chaos. Versus the LEGO® Icons 10326 Natural History Museum, this one is more about fun than architectural precision — and that’s part of its charm.

Who It’s For

Longtime Simpsons fans who grew up with the show
Collectors who missed the original Simpsons sets
Builders who love hidden jokes and pop-culture builds
Display fans wanting something colorful with personality

Pros & Cons

Pros

Pure nostalgia, loaded with Simpsons humor
Great new characters (Sideshow Bob, Officer Lou)
Strong mix of interior + exterior design
Folding layout for easy display

Cons

Heavy sticker use (over 40!)
No Marge or Maggie
Pricey for its size
Slightly smaller scale than older Simpsons sets

Final Thoughts

All in all, the LEGO® Icons 10352 Krusty Burger is a greasy, glorious slice of Springfield. It’s not the biggest or flashiest Icons set, but it’s packed with character. If The Simpsons was part of your childhood — like it was for me — this one hits all the right nostalgic notes.

Would I recommend it? Absolutely. It’s a love letter to fans and a great excuse to hum the theme song while you build.
