About Cities of Wonders
A one-year collection
Every set in the theme is dated 2017, and the numbering is unusually mixed: some models carry seven-digit numbers such as 6218775-1, while others use short codes like COWT2-1 and COWS6-1. Taken together, the names point to three places – Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore – which gives the series a clear regional focus. Railway buildings, a market hall, a clock tower and a modern skyscraper sit side by side, so the collection mixes colonial-era architecture with contemporary landmarks.
The largest models
At 397 pieces, Sheung Wan Western Market (6218775-1) is the biggest build, followed by the Former Kowloon-Canton Railway Clock Tower (6218773-1) with 327 pieces. Singapore: Display Base (COWS6-1) has 257 pieces, and The Old Supreme Court Building (6218772-1) comes in at 253. Further down the list are Old Taipo Market Railway Station (6218774-1, 212 pieces), 85 Sky Tower (6218490-1, 180 pieces), Chihkan Tower (COWT2-1, 160 pieces) and Taichung Station (COWT4-1, 159 pieces).
Building and displaying them
With piece counts between roughly 150 and 400, each model can be finished in a single sitting and takes up little shelf space. If you want to recreate one from your own bricks, open its set page: the parts list shows every element, and ‘What can I build?’ tells you how much of it your collection already covers.
