Another great set for the Architecture line!
on October 1, 2018
Posted by: Smoov
Fun little set with some clever design features here. I especially like this set because of the landmarks chosen... In a city with tons to pick from, these were the ones that really stuck with me after visiting London a couple years ago. A great trip, and now a great set to remind me of it!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great set
on January 7, 2017
Posted by: HPinder
This set is great. It includes builds of the National Gallery, Nelson's Column, Big Ben, the London Eye & Tower Bridge on a base plate. The set looks really good but is only for display, not to be played with really.
I think the inclusion of a small boat under Tower Bridge is nice.
The instruction book includes pictures and information about each of the landmarks and is higher quality than normal books.
I think the price is a bit too high but the set looks great and I highly recommend this to people who love LEGO & London.
This is my first Architecture set and I enjoyed building it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Quality Design
on February 28, 2018
Posted by: Anothername
This is my first Lego architecture line (a gift from a close relative), and as a Brit I'm jolly pleased to have received a cityscape of London.
The design is a smart, delicate, well thought-through build to a Lego architecture set. The shapes and subtle colour schemes of the miniature buildings balance with each other perfectly. To achieve such detail on a remarkably small-scale is very impressive.
Whilst the majority of the build was relatively straight forward, I found the building of the London Eye to be most tricky in terms of achieving symmetry with the 'pods' around the wheel. It's a clever design but the wheel does tend to wobble around a lot if being moved. But as it's a display piece I don't think this really matters.
It's worth remembering though, that although this set is designed for observation rather than 'play', the build can be dismantled at your discretion so you can make other things with the available bricks - it is Lego after all!
In conclusion this is a wonderful, impressively splendid model perfect for display.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Coolest Skyline Yet
on December 31, 2016

Of the skyline line, the London set is my favorite. The London Eye is genius. Would love to see a second skyline with The Shard and other London landmarks.

I like it, but.....
on January 6, 2017
Posted by: Wellenflug
I was very excited to finally see a London Skyline set as I love the way LEGO cleverly interpret landmarks using simple elements while maintaining the essence of the landmarks. A few things irked me though. I didn't like the grey connector at the top of the Eye, this spoils the look for me and would have been better in white. The capsules of the Eye I think could have been interpreted a bit better using cylindrical/ dome elements. The clear tiles are just ok. Nelson's column would have been nice in grey too as it's definitely not white in reality. All that said however, it's a nice little set, but London is big place and definitely would need a 2nd or 3rd iteration to capture the real variety of architecture we have here.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cool Set!
on June 3, 2017
Posted by: alecworld
Being my first Lego in many years, I enjoyed it very much. The instructions were clear and I didn't want to stop once I started.
I think it's a great landmark and Lego was in line. The only area to improve I'd suggest is the top of the wheel as it's not very rounded and the colour is questionable.
Overall, great set and very pleasant experience.
Looking forward to my next set!
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Great Icon of London
on August 24, 2023
Posted by: David Boi
London skyline is very cool. The design is very organized for every single building and icon in London, especially, I love so much Big Ben Tower. I tried to take some nice photos for this set after having fun with build. Let's get this set.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nicely detailed

Fun to build yet just challenging enough to not be high on the difficulty scale. Very clever design and interpretation of the London Eye and Tower Bridge. A satisfying way to spend a couple of hours.
I would recommend this to a friend!
