"This Lego model of the @Jeopardy set is one of my favorite artifacts on our stage. Always nice to see Alex still hosting," Jennings wrote.
The plaque on the model shares that the Lego design team was tasked with building a recreation of the "Jeopardy!" set in 2016.
"This one-of-a-kind Lego Jeopardy! set is constructed of 12,650 bricks, and the entire process took nearly 100 hours to complete."
Fans were quick to comment on Jennings' sweet video.
"We miss Alex but you’ve been doing a great job," one Twitter user wrote.
"It's the Lego Movie spinoff that *should* be made!" another fan suggested.
Other viewers expressed they "Love everything about this."
"That really just brightened my day, that's super cool," while another person said, "That looks incredible!!"
