NASA Apollo Saturn V

Set 92176 recreates NASA's Saturn V launch vehicle, the rocket that made the Moon landings possible between 1967 and 1973. With 1,969 pieces and 221 different part types, the model stands upright and separates into its individual rocket stages. A display stand keeps the slender rocket stable without needing to be mounted on a wall.

Description

Three stages, just like the original

The real Saturn V was made up of three separate rocket stages, each jettisoned in turn once its fuel was spent. The model follows that same principle closely: the individual stages can actually be separated during display, revealing the rocket's internal structure rather than showing a single sealed shell. That ability to come apart sets 92176 apart from many other rocket models built at a similar scale. The stages can just as easily be reassembled for full-height display afterwards.

White, grey and black as signal colours

The parts list is built around white for the rocket body, with light bluish grey and dark bluish grey covering engines and technical panelling, plus black on the nozzles and detail stripes. That restrained colour scheme matches NASA's original paint job and makes the model instantly recognisable as a Saturn V even from a distance. The parts list on this page shows exactly how those colours are spread across the individual stages. Small black lettering on the outer shell echoes the real rocket's NASA markings too.

Small modules included

Alongside the main rocket, the set includes small models of the lunar module and command module, which can be displayed separately or slotted into the top stage. These extra models add historical context to the Apollo missions without padding out the set unnecessarily. For collectors with an interest in space history, they round out the main rocket with details tied directly to the actual Moon landing. Both small modules come with their own simple stand for independent display.

Display for a shelf or wall

Standing at around a metre tall once built, the model needs a dedicated spot but displays well on a shelf or desk thanks to the included stand. With 221 different part types across 1,969 pieces, the build stays manageable without losing accuracy to the original design. The full parts list on this page shows exactly which colours and shapes go into each of the three rocket stages, so ceiling height can be checked before starting.
