It is insane how good this looks... Cannot wait to get it. Certainly not for everyone but for those who love any sought of architectures this looks like a dream to have

[@Montyh7]

I think it's absolutely beautiful and a great tribute to an architectural and engineering marvel. However, I'm only intending to buy two of the more expensive sets released this year (space, money and genre limits my choices) and this isn't one of them. I don't think anyone who does buy it will be disappointed though, it's quite lovely.

[@13luissalas]

If I had extra cash I would buy it for parts. So many useful recolor parts for military models, but if I got one I couldn't bear to take it apart. It looks so good. I remember seeing the older brick version as a kid in magazines.

[@ryanmackenzie7651]

This set looks absolutely stunning! I personally won't be getting it myself but it's still absolutely fantastic!

[@curiousmin]

Lego's new direction seems to be: bigger and much more expensive! This set is way too big and still an eye watering amount of money for what may be a very repetitive build. I would consider for half the height and price ;) Price in Australia is $999.99.

[@Inflator82]

This is just ridiculous now.

[@jepron4639]

Why?

[@ml4757]

Sure, it's gigantic, not many people asked for it and it's gonna take up so much room, but unlike something like the Hulkbuster or Black Panther bust, this set is absolutely incredible, they took the source structure and translated it amazingly into a model. Sure, it might cost less to actually go see the proper Eiffel Tower, but this proves to be an incredible conversation starter.

Ive been looking for something to collect dust. This looks perfect. Looks tedious as all hell to build too

[@erranonymus]

I was waiting for this and it doesn't dissapoint. Value is great here based on what you can get in this size and amount of bricks. One of these years I want to get my hands on either of the huge sets, just to experience the feeling.

[@zozateem]

I have the Titanic as I'm a "creator expert" builder and it is my "flagship". My wife has a lot of Architecture sets, so this one will be her "flagship" :D

[@erranonymus]

My boy asked for a new Xmas tree. Seriously, can you imagine with some creative lighting and then you can take a pic of the Eiffel tower during the night :)

[@mumblingsole]

I will be getting it and I love to see Lego build its nemesis Blackpool Tower as well

[@kentslocum]

To be honest, I really like the use of roadplates in the base. It doesn't seem to significantly inflate the price-per-piece, probably because most of the other pieces are so small.

[@Matt..S]

3:14 you can see the stress on those rounded 1x1 hinge/bar pieces. Wonder how long it will last on a shelf before it starts to make big gaps.

[@petehoskins1267]

About AUD $950 here, great looking set but waiting on the Liebherr 13000 crane (if it ever is released)

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

Excellent, detailed overview of an absolutely epic set. I remember when thinking the Tower of Orthanc was a super tall structure only now to be completely be dwarfed now by the Eiffel tower. Personally won't be getting because of space/budgeting restraints but really impressed how well/accurate it turned out.

[@ethanol1586]

I'm so excited for this set!! Absolutely can't wait to get my hands on it

[@Hallilluya]

If I had money to spare I would 100% certainly buy it even though I have no idea where to put it

[@davidcrossman4670]

i don't normally build Lego, but this is a definite. Absolutely magnificent

[@rainman2107]

I'm not a fan of this particular set but I like direction they take. Personally I'm waiting for some UCS iconic cathedral set like those in Cologne, Prague or Florence.

[@datavizuals]

Lego stay away from religious buildings, and military themes so I don't think we'd get a cathedral even though I would love it too

Notre Dame or the Sagrada Familia would be so interesting to build, but I also understand lego's position on religion.

[@weareallseedsofthesametree]

One could save display space and build just a quarter, glue it to two mirrors and put it into the corner of the room. By this 4 people could share one set for 155 € (plus mirrors) each. 🤓

[@Alban-Seguin]

Nooooooo ,don’t cut my Eiffel tower 😭😭🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

[@nicororo5124]

😂😂😂 you can also install each of the four quarters in each four corners of the room. So you will have four Eiffel towers for the price of one🥴

[@Piflle]

Someone make a burge Khalifa (I’m butchering that I’m sure) moc to scale with this please, that would be soooooo coooooooooool

This and the Titanic are the 2 sets I don't own that I would like the most to have.

[@Dewebje]

Perhaps you can place it on an Ikea Lack table? They're not so high and small if you want so.. in a nice corner or something?

[@julienbrouillard5446]

I am still utterly disappointed that for a whopping 630USD and having put so much effort and time to engineer this set, and considering its sheer size, they have not put a working elevator in the tower feet and restaurants on the first floor.

[@matthewpotter8491]

Firstly I think it looks an incredible set. Can’t deny that. Would defo like it for my collection some day. Money aside however, this is just ridiculous now. Realistically, how many people can display something like that? It’s obscenely big. Wish Lego would drop this current mantra for bigger bigger bigger.

[@crazybird199]

Those Light My Bricks folks are gonna have trouble evading copyright laws with this one.

[@DX88]

It doesn't even come with powered elevators? They could have easily done that for this price!

[@BigWillTheMill]

Not my lego set interest, BUT it looks so good that I'm interested. I really just want to build it, I don't care to have it on display or anything, I just want to see how it was designed.

[@freezemc7009]

This looks cool

[@arenfish]

I'm definitely getting this, and I know where to put it. There's a really short table in my bedroom and considering the width of the set, i can definitely fit it on there. Now I don't have anymore issues with getting this set besides the excruciating building process. 😃

[@ejicon3099]

I like it. I want it but won't buy it. I have absolutely no room to display it at home or at work. I'm sad but also happy to see such a set.

[@samgeurdi6351]

And again a 600 dollar plus set. When does Lego understand, the marker is oversaturated

[@plasticacaria6427]

I’m mainly interested in lego cars, so I won’t get this, but it looks really good

[@brunosa3366]

THE most "adult" set ever made. Impressive? Yes. Accurate? Yes. Complex Structure? Yes. But as boring as it can be. A peace of decoration, and for few people (they are getting a little eccentric). I see it beeing used more for commercial purposes. Another set for that small niche of adults that are not necessarily lego fans. Definitely not what Lego means to me.

[@brunosa3366]

But of course they have a really good market research team that confirms the receptivity and profit of these sets. So it's fine.

[@akoshorvath-risko5838]

Even Lego has trouble with the size... They can't seem to find a good place for it in the promo shots. One is beside a fireplace, and the other is *in front of a door*

[@Mocsfromscratch]

The set is nice and it is an ultimate display piece. The only main issue with the set is the price. I mean, paying $629.99 for just plastic. I also don't have enough space for the LEGO Eiffel Tower. I definitely will not able to get that set.

[@user-rs1990]

Now put Olympic Rings on that for 2024!

Now with Eiffel tower it's possible make real comparison between Lego and other brands/model kit about price and quality. For others sets wasnt possible but with this one we are in pure modelism and we can do.

Since I already have the Tower Bridge, Big Ben, Sydney Opera House, and Colosseum, I need to get this one (and the Taj Mahal) as well. The plan is to purchase it on the day of release, and score the Eiffel's Apartment GWP. I will be putting a € 100 voucher towards it, plus the double VIP point, that brings the price down to about € 520. That makes it more affordable.
