LEGO Sydney Opera House

There are 321 pieces to put together and it took me a couple of hours to do so, making it a fun project for a rainy afternoon.The instructions are easy to follow and the end result is certainly worth the effort. The detail on the tower is impressive and this model depicts the beautiful structure well. I have not dismantled it as I think it is good enough to keep as an ornament, and it sits proudly on my work desk.This would make a great gift for anybody with an interest in architecture.

I have bought this because I thought this was a decent price for the amount of pieces of Lego it contained - and I gotta say I loved putting this one together. It's not the very usual brick on brick kind of structure, I enjoyed the fact that there were some movement pieces involved, made me feel a little bit more like doing a Lego Technic kit. I am very glad Lego came up with this Architecture collection, as some of the kits are very beautiful and can nicely sit on your shelves and be adored by your guests. And I think Eiffel tower is definitely one of the most eye pleasing and interesting structures in all the collection.

Bought this as an Easter present for my 6 year old son. He loved it! We did it together, with me picking out the bricks for him and him doing the actual building - and there were only a couple of times he needed a little bit of help. It took us a couple of nights to do, at a couple of hours a night. It looks really good once built. Very impressive. This is the 2nd set we've done. We did the London set first and found that the Eiffel tower was easier to do. Planning to do Buckingham Palace next.

Easy for a 60 odd year old adult to build. This is my 2nd Architecture set that I've purchased and will purchase more as they make a change from doing a jigsaw. Downside to this set is that it is very plain looking and would have looked better with a more realistic looking brick on the outside of the model. Some very small bricks such as 1x1 , so anyone with finger problems might struggle.

My grandson is mad about Lego and I thought this might present a bit more of a challenge to him - but oh no, trust him he'd built it in less than an hour! Having said that it looks brilliant when finished and he loved it - needless to say he wants to go up it now! Would thoroughly recommend this series of lego but if I bought him another one it have to have a lot more bricks to it - trouble is they cost more money so I don't think that'll be happening unless I could get one at an exceptionally good price. Would thoroughly recommend for any Lego enthusiast but bear in mind it's not the sort of Lego that you keep taking apart and building again - it's really a showpiece.

Bought this after months of lusting after it! Had seen Lego architecture in one of the stores on holiday but no Lego store near where I live so had to buy online. This is a truly fantastic range- perhaps not for kids but for older lego enthusiasts! Not a challenge to build but I didn't expect that and that wasn;t why I bought it. It is a really quirky concept and the completed products are elegant and stylish. I can't wait to add to my collection.

I have a friend who is a LEGO freak and he loved this kit - as a Christmas present. But what impressed me most was the company's response to an email I sent immediately after ordering. I said that, unfortunately, I'd been late in ordering and I hoped they would be able to get it to me by a particular date, when I was leaving for France, or otherwise I would have to post it on to my friend in France after my return. They responded straightaway and pulled out all the stops to get it to me. Excellent service!

The Idea is good and it looks nice but considering its a 12+, it is surprisingly easy and took my son no time at all to construct.So, I've given its 3 stars as its not a very challenging Architecture to build.
