Description

A model on an extreme scale

With over 10,000 pieces, this set ranks among the most substantial builds currently available. That piece count translates into a long, multi-session build in which the tower's distinctive tapering shape takes form level by level. Anyone looking for a project to work through over several sittings, rather than a single afternoon, will find that format here. The build splits naturally into sections, so longer breaks between sessions are not a problem.

The open lattice, recreated

The 277 unique parts allow the open, criss-crossing ironwork of the real tower to be recreated rather than represented as a solid block. The parts list is dominated by dark bluish grey, black and tan for the structure itself, with green used for the landscaped area at the base. The full breakdown of colours and shapes used is on this page. On a model this large, the list is a useful way to track which shapes recur often throughout the build and which appear only rarely, in just a handful of spots.

A display piece, not a play set

With no minifigures included, this set is clearly built around the finished structure as a display piece rather than a play scene. Given the size of the finished model, a permanent spot to display it makes sense, much like other large landmark sets in the Icons range. It's worth deciding on that spot before starting the build, since moving the finished tower afterwards is far less practical.

Who it suits

This set suits experienced builders after a long-term project, as well as collectors of architecture and landmark sets. Its size and piece count make it less suited to a quick build, but well suited as a centrepiece in an existing collection or as a significant gift. Anyone who has already built smaller architecture sets will find this the natural next step up in scale, with a correspondingly longer build to match.
