Sets <a href="http://www.lego.com/en-us/movie/products/products/70800-getaway-glider">created specifically for the movie</a> do not count. For example, the bad cop's grandparent's house looks awfully familiar but I couldn't place whether that is an exact set that already exists, or just in the style of some of the older vacation/holiday house sets.</p>

  Are there any existing/hisorical complete sets (for example: buildings, vehicles, etc) featured in The Lego Movie? Sets [created specifically for the movie](http://www.lego.com/en-us/movie/products/products/70800-getaway-glider) do not count. For example, the bad cop's grandparent's house looks awfully familiar but I couldn't place whether that is an exact set that already exists, or just in the style of some of the older vacation/holiday house sets.

  Yes! Well, it depends... When you say featured, do you mean "it appears in the movie" or "it plays a central role in the movie"? If the former, many of them appear in "real life" scenes of the basement.
  
  One of my [favorite sets](http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=6339-1) from my childhood was in one of the [background dioramas](https://imgur.com/DhJJfWW). I got to see the complete basement movie set at LEGOLand California last week. They filled the film with old sets.
