LEGO Architecture 21039 Shanghai

I bought this for myself, aged 65, whilst it was on sale at a massive discount. Would I pay the full price? No. Is it good to look at and an interesting assembly job? Yes. There are a massive number of pieces to sort and assemble and the instructions are basically graphical.Tou need to study the pictures and the pieces closely in order to get it right. Every budding scientist needs to be able to step through procedures and this is a funway of honing those skills

Continues in the series. These are getting better and are very realistic on display. Would recommend anytime. Only negative is the cost seems to be rising compared to original sets. But still great.

Nice to build Lego ‘skyline’ model of Shanghai. Have built a lot of the architecture range and they are always good and fresh in different ways, so keep you interested.

On the creative side my 12-year old thoroughly enjoys building Lego, let alone the architecture line which is growing on him and this set had no major issues with instructions. However, I’m not quite sure about the value for money in conjunction of the microscopic size and the end build feeling as these sets seem to be quite wobbly.

I purchased this Lego set to remind me of a recent visit to Shanghai. A bit pricey, but contained the expected high quality Lego moulded components. When completed it becomes a great impression of the Shaghai waterfront and looks impressive in my cabinet.
