Definitely not my favorite so far. Kind of disappointing.

+1. I think this set is very poorly designed.

I like it. It's not about realism, but capturing the visual feel. When's it coming out?

Wow. Something worse than the Burj Khalifa.

maybe it's because i'm horribly biased against the Architecture line, but this is rather horrible. well check that the Burj still takes the cake.

I was hoping for something Taj Mahal sized.

I think the Architecture line should stick to more rectagular buildings. Trying to do all those curves at this scale just doesn't look good.

That's great.

Looks like a piece of overpriced junk, I'm sure some architect will buy it

was hoping this would be a large scale model (i.e. Tower bridge)
oh well.
I have inoperable cancer and am unable to work. Any gifts would be appreciated. Thank you!

Wow, this is disappointing. I've done Robie House, Fallingwater, and Farnsworth House (as well as Statue of Liberty and Eiffel Tower before) and this doesn't come close to the level of detail or quality of any of them.

Never really liked the Lego Architecture sets. To very limited in details and very very small in size and brick count for the prices/RRP/MSRP...
The only one ever consider a buy for me was the Lego Robie House when Amazon had a deep discount on it last year but still passed on it...
