The set was designed by Matthew Ashton. In a Twitter post, he said he "wanted to create a simple little set with a powerful message of love, inclusivity and acceptance… so here it is! #lego love to you all!" 

"Over the last few years, there’s been a lot of social struggles in the world and I think that’s really made us reflect as individuals and a society that we could probably all be doing something a little bit more to show empathy and love and acceptance for other people," Ashton said in a video uploaded to the brand's YouTube channel. 

The set will be available starting June 1 – the first day of Pride Month – for $34.99, according to LEGO’s website
