Nice figure, though painful
on December 22, 2023
Posted by: KBrift
I found this build to be repetitive, and the fact that the structure is mainly two colors made this somewhat boring to build. In addition, the similar shapes of some of the smaller blue angled pieces of the draped dress were at times infuriating.
I know I mis-placed a piece or two, but swear that even if I’d built this 100% correctly the statue part itself should never be touched or even dusted. Too many pieces want to pop off, including the crown and the striding leg due to too-few connection points in some areas. This is probably exacerbated by the interior connector rods between the base and the statue which I think are made to emulate the fact that the statue itself could sway minimally in windy conditions.
Having said all this, it’s a nice representation, albeit without a face. I’m not bummed I built it :)

One of the Best Legos

This was so much fun to build and the designers did such a good job. This is one of my very favorite and isn't coming down, it has a special place in my home.

Uncertain of the quality
on September 28, 2023
Posted by: CountPoeticCole100
I was excited to begin working on this build. I got almost to the top of the base before I ran into problems... I pushed through and wouldn't you know that the statue leg doesn't fit as it should and the face plate is missing a piece. I am quite sad about the finish because leaves me feeling some sort of way due to the face not being finished.

If it seems like your set isn't coming together as expected, the best thing to do is double-check your build. Sometimes there may be a piece just a little off from where it should be on the inside. You’ll also want to make sure that all the pieces are pressed tightly together. If anything is missing or not looking right, feel free to reach out to us at LEGO.build/Service-BV!

Very Nice
on April 2, 2023

I really like this set, however the statue itself has a few elements that I do not find visually pleasing. You can absolutely tell what it is, but the detail really drops off around the head. My true reason for getting it was the base. The base is beautiful! I got it then plopped the brickhead on there. I could tell there was some neat element inside to keep the bottom attached to the statue, but i left those pieces out since i was using it to display the brickhead. I will say the base is a quite repetitive build, but the end result is pretty awesome.

Missing Pieces —ongoing issues with LEGO
on January 3, 2023
Posted by: Drew_H
Fun build overall, but like many sets I’ve purchased directly from LEGO, it was missing pieces at critical points in the build. I ordered them through the online reclamation process, but this is getting very annoying that every other $100+ set I purchase from LEGO I have to stop the build and order missing pieces.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Missing pieces are rare and we take quality very seriously. Thanks for letting us know. If you haven't already, call in or chat us at LEGO.build/Service-BV and we can look into why this keeps happening.

Very Fun Set but Could have been better
on November 11, 2022
Posted by: ivnoh
This is only my second Lego set that I have ever built. The first one was the Saturn V rocket, and I think that one was slightly better than this one but overall this was a very fun set. The experience of building this was very unique and it was not repetitive, the top was especially challenging. The reason why I say that the other set was better was because Lego made a few instructional errors on the last bag in regards how to put this together/it was unclear or something, anyways I was able to get it put together but this was something that lego should have caught. Secondly, the face of the model should have been designed better, I felt like it was so intriquitely designed and then you get to the face and it's just a flat piece? Doesn't make sense, it could have been a few triangular pieces to give it some substance. Anyways, these are very minor complaints to an overall very fun project that was most definitely worth the time and money spent on it. I will definitely rebuild it in the future!

Great Statue
on July 13, 2022
Posted by: TelescopicRaccoon058
This is one of my top 3 builds. It has a lot of ways to make you think. All of the pieces fit perfect. The platform is very sturdy and a little repetitive, but nothing like the empire state building. I would recommend this build to a historian, decorative item for living area. The great thing about this item besides the look is the book. All of the information on the history is a great way for parents to teach their kids.
Only one draw back, the face but can't notice away only up close.
Pros
Great instructions
Has some difficulty but not impossible.
Great learning tool
Looks amazing
