Be prepared to be frustrated
on January 17, 2023
Posted by: SecretStick032
As a Lego collector and Eiffel Tower collector, I was excited. This was not a good experience though. The directions could have been better. You go through a hundred steps to go back and build an identical one. The real challenge comes with the second box. Arches do not stay up. One shake and pieces fall off. The arches fell
Apart multiple times while installing. This was a boring build and too frustrating. It seems like the directions were rushed. I thought I would have a great display but when a duster breaks off pieces it is not worth the money.

Viva La France!

An impressive model of the archaeological icon. Lots of monotonous sections but well worth it in the end.

Good

Besides it being over, priced and extremely repetitive, it was an overall good build

Ridiculously repetitive.
on January 10, 2023
Posted by: MagicalPeacock049
I have built dozens of sets including large ones like the Coliseum and the Titanic. I have seen repetitive, and I have seen refreshing, this is the former and then some. Each separate leg is comprised of four separate parts, you can build two parts per bag. There are eight legs in the first two portions, then four more smaller "legs" up top with another four support beams with detail going down the middle. I'm going to let you do the math on that one, but the point is the vast majority of this build is the exact same thing over and over again. I absolutely love Lego and I will continue to purchase more. But I have never had a set this large and repetitive. Some don't care and simply build for the final result but for me the build is the biggest part, and I have put this one down more times than I can count and debated stopping. Which is something I have NEVER done before. I've taken breaks, but I have never debated scraping a build. Breaks your spirit to spend an hour or two or more building just legs and finally build a platform and really get excited thinking it's about to get new and fun just to be hit with a multitude more bags and instructions to build the same legs you just finished building for hours. After the fact, this may be the only set I have ever wanted to stop building.

Intricately beautiful but too fragile
on January 9, 2023
Posted by: Kreggylee
Like others, the bottom section arches drove me nuts. They fall off too easily. And which is frustrating because in real life arches are there to provide structural strength but here are merely cosmetic appendages that detach from the core model if you look at them cross eyed. Only a relative few studs hold them in place, and I was going to weigh them as a point of reference but didn’t want to have to spend a half hour getting them back onto the model without falling off again. I am thinking of ways to make them sturdier because this thing really is gorgeous and deserves a showing, but the price of all this beauty is this one area, a key and important arena though, of fragility.
It would be great if LEGO could come up with the pieces needed to sturdy up the arches. Like when a computer company sends out a patch to correct a software issue. This set needs a patch. But again, it certainly is gorgeous when all said an done.
Also, most photos I’ve seen don’t convey the size of this thing. It’s BIG. Like a piece of furniture. And when your imagination gets going, as mine did, and if you’re scared of heights, like I am, at some point you put yourself in the shoes of a little LEGO person and you get scared at the height of this thing. You don’t want to be a little LEGO person and fall from the top of the tower!

Boring
on January 8, 2023
Posted by: ConsiderateBadCop076
Do you repeat the same job over and over and over? The four sides going up and the crossmembers go on forever. You know it will be boring once you get past the grade level.
