Heck, just lay some bricks out and you can see it visually. Technically, it was per Tom Alphin but thanks for the acknowledgment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bricklues Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The dome is what makes this building - It's unfortunate that LEGO did an awful job with it (as the rest of it looks great). I'm with you on that one. As I wrote in an earlier post... very unfortunate design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legodrdoom Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Any ideas out there on a release date for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 September. One shop here had it available online a while back but I guess that was a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 We know there's lots of hype over Cinderella's Castle this week, but this one is starting to show up in LEGOLand stores too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilrock Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 (edited) Awesome. This is the set i've been most interested in getting for my collection this year. This, the Brick Bank, and perhaps the U-wing are the only sets this year that have given me something to look forward to from lego, in an otherwise very lackluster year. Do you guys know if this is the same box size as Imperial Hotel, Fallingwater, Villa Savoye? I take it this is available on September 1st? Usually, January 1st, May 1st and September 1st is when they traditionally release architecture sets.

Same width as advents but little shorter and deeper. Buckingham was a weird box. Similar to louvre but much deeper. Only 2 per case on those as well 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Mack Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I would love to see a Creator sized version of this iconic building. Castle looks great as well. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed lackluster year. 1 of only 4 sets I will buy this year for my collection along with Porsche, Big Ben, and Disney Castle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't do robie cause you and another member repeatedly told me I would not enjoy it. This one starts off tedious then seems to get better. The little pieces just get aggravating with big hands. Big ben needed it though to make it look so detailed. Edited August 21, 2016 by ravenb99 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilrock Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I just saw my sons lego magazine, and this was listed for 99.99. I would have assumed this was easily 129.99. About time lego cuts a minor break on at least one set. The buckingham was 49.99. Not 79.99 like some said. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
