Description

A telescope as a build

217 unique parts go into the cylindrical main body, the solar panels and the telescope's technical detailing. The real Hubble has been in orbit since 1990 and still delivers scientific imagery today, a backstory that makes this model especially appealing to space and science fans. Setting the 1,252 pieces against the 217 unique parts shows a ratio that is typical for Icons sets, mixing recurring basic elements with more elaborate specialised pieces, which keeps the build varied without ever feeling unnecessarily complicated.

Colours of metal and orbit

Light bluish grey, black, dark bluish grey and white make up the palette, matching the metallic skin of real satellites and telescopes. The parts list on this page shows how the 1,252 pieces spread across this fairly restrained colour range. This colour distribution is typical of Icons sets in this size range and directly shapes how uniform or contrasting the finished model looks on a shelf, something worth considering when building out a wider collection.

Who it suits

With just one minifigure, the focus sits firmly on the model itself rather than play scenes. It suits collectors of Icons space builds and anyone after a science-inspired display piece. At just over 1,250 pieces, there's enough here for a proper weekend project. Before buying, it is also worth checking the single included minifigure, since that number signals whether the set leans toward extended play scenes or a single display piece, which makes the buying decision easier depending on how you plan to use it.

Parts list for space collectors

If you already own other Icons space builds, the parts list on this page gives a solid base for comparing colour palettes and shapes, with all 217 unique parts listed by quantity and colour. At 1,252 pieces, the set sits in the mid-range for the Icons series, enough for a manageable but demanding build evening. For display purposes, it is also worth checking the specialised joints used to hold the solar panels in position. Especially across Icons sets with a similar piece count, comparing several parts lists before buying is a good way to judge how much shape variety versus repetition each set actually offers.
