LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V 92176 Outer Space Model Rocket for Kids and Adults, Science Building Kit (1969 Pieces)

love it

This set was designed very well, absolutely stunning to look at in person. Packaging was original and in mint condition.

Best LEGO kit ever!

This was the first of the set of the new realistic Nasa Adult Lego sets I recently purchased. Really brought back memories of early childhood Lego building and has a huge nostalgia factor as a result. Quite complex to build and definitely not something a kid should be looking into, really something someone ~16+ could reasonably get into. The set is quite tall and comes with its own horizontal display. Being somewhat of a crafty space nerd Ive displayed it vertically on my own as depicted. For the curious here is how to do this to make it look like its launching: Materials needed: 1x medium-to large flat bottom open top fishbowl, 1x lifx mini smartbulb, 1x baseless lamp (to house/power the bulb), and one package of plain white stuffed animal stuffing from a craft store (ideally its neatly packaged in a roll). Step-by-step: set-up the light, place light on floor (ensure the bulb does not rest on the ground), invert the bowl and place the light directly in the center, cover the bowl around all sides with the stuffing by unrolling the stuffing - over the sides of the bowl, pull/form the stuffing into cloud-like shapes while draping in a cone shape over the bowl so that some areas appear to have more density than others (this affects how the light shines through and creates a hot smoke effect, this is the most annoying part and dont be afraid to pull-off excess stuffing as needed), use a level to ensure the surface on top is flat and wont tip, place the Saturn V on the flattened top of the inverted fishbowl, set the light to yellows or oranges or even combine with lifxs flicker setting to make it appear like its launching!

Definitely the most satisfying Lego build Ive done . The result is gorgeous , the build was never too complicated or unwieldy. The instruction book was absolutely top notch . The level of detail including much interior detail you cannot see is amazing . It was a very great way to spend a rainy weekend and will always have a place in my house.

Big.Detailed.Looks Good. Enjoyable to build.

Loved building this set. The instructions and packaging made it easy to work through each section. Especially liked how the astronauts were made to scale to the rocket. Really puts things in perspective. The only thing I did not like was the capsule containing the astronauts was plain white. Would have been much better if it was imprinted with the hatch and windows. Otherwise it is a great display piece. Also lined the fact there were 1969 pieces and the rocket was sent up in 1969.

When I saw the price I immediately bought it. My 12 years old couldnt be more happy. We tried to build not more than a bag day, but we were too impatient to see it done. What a great Lego set.

Awesome Lego set I dont have a lot of room for big lego sets so I looked for a while before deciding on this one. You will not be disappointed. The build is a bit repetitive, some parts are a little hard to get together with out breaking other parts off. I think the best part are the little astronauts that show the rockets scale.

I bought this set new, but my kids took it apart and mixed up the pieces! Then wanted to put it back together, but didn’t want to spend 300 hours going through the millions of legos looking for all the small pieces. So now I have 2!
