A True Winner!

LEGO hit a homerun with this set! Very fun to build and watch come to life and many, many minifigures. Also gives a "playground" to mix in many of the other Marvel sets.
If I had to critique something, I would say the price is definitely a hurdle, but is still worth it. And the minifigure collection, while large, could use more unique and rare figures since the price tag wouldn't increase to accomplish that. Still, well worth it in the end!
Lego did not disappoint on this one. I had such a good time building the tower, about a bag a day during last December. The building experience is nice, tons of minifigures, I’m I Marvel fan, so I’m very glad to have this set. If I can suggest something, I would ask for the blue transparent windows to be protected with a film or bagged individually to keep them free of stretching. Fair request for this price tag. Other than that, great job Lego! Note: probably it is my 2nd favorite set of 2023, absolutely nothing can beat the masterpiece of Rivendell!
At first, I was a bit cautious of buying this set with the high price and all, but I decided to go ahead and buy it and I will NEVER regret that choice. It took me about 9 hours to build, which I thought was great. It looks awesome with my other sets! If you are even slightly considering buying this set, I would totally recommend you to buy it RIGHT NOW!
LEGO continues the tradition of amazing Marvel skyscrapers. Of course, the windows are going to be a bit of a chore but the designers did a decent job of breaking up the monotony- much better than the Daily Bugle (which I still love).
The side builds are great and almost justify buying the set just for them. Amazing amount of detail with minimal parts usage- but definitely for a more advanced builder. I actually prefer this scaled down Quinjet to the larger one that came out last year.
Marvel also continues to be the theme with the more acceptably priced larger sets. The number of minifigs and large trans-blue pieces more than justify the pricing. Same can’t be said for their smaller sets (**cough** X-Jet **cough**).
On the subject of minifigs is the one complaint I have. There are some curious, and glaring, omissions. Like a regular Bruce Banner- there’s an excellent recreation of the bar from Age of Ultron and no way to recreate the famous “flirt” scene with Black Widow! But we get Wasp for some reason and Wong even though neither were in the movies referenced in the set.
Absolute must have set as a Marvel fan. This set is so fun and ridiculously huge. Your only problem will be finding a place to put it! There are a few odd figures choices like Wong but overall still a 10/10 set.
