Simply Incredible

I have long awaited a kind of asian skyline with soaring, complicated, detailed skyscrapers and intricate heritage. I think the vale for money is very good and it makes an excellent display model. The building techniques are new and clever and overall I think this is a brilliant set. :D

A real treat in so many ways.

I've built several of the Architecture sets and by far, this is my favourite set.
First of all, there is no play value as it's meant to be built, displayed and swooned over. As a display model, it's gorgeous with the subtle curves and sculpting of the two taller towers. I also love the variety in the choices in style of architecture. Unlike the London set which had a mishmash of different scales, these representations have similar scales, as much as is possible at microscale, resulting in a much more pleasing display.
From the perspective of construction, it's not overly hard for experienced builders, but there is a great variety of SNOT techniques and I learned a lot of new ways of building. The final tower is so satisfying to complete, with such an elegant an ingenious solution.
Finally, there is a real plethora of new parts and parts in new colours. It's a great set, even simply as a parts pack.
Hats off to the Lego designers, you've hit a real home run!!

A good representation of my hometown

Lego did a good job here for my hometown. I will proudly display it on my office desk. The building experience was very interesting, especially how the shanghai tower was twisted. The one negative is that Jin Mao Tower is not included. Overall job well done, Lego.

....this ‘skyline’ series was a great idea. Easy build but rewarding considering I’m collecting the entire series. As usual, this is a great representation of the city skyline.

Absolute Best Skyline so far!
on January 17, 2018

This skyline model simply is head and shoulders above the rest. Very innovative use of bricks especially on the Shanghai Tower (twisting building) and the Oriental Pearl Tower (the middle one with two globes). How did they come up with the twist?? It's a balance between getting the scale vs level of detail right but overall it looks fantastic up close and from afar. Took a while to catch one on the shelf at the store - this set is very popular.

Interesting build

I liked the build on this, especially the twisting of the tower. Lots of new bricks to me.
I would change one thing. On the "blue" building I was a little disappointed on the back side as it does not have a finished look to it. I am hoping to find some smooth bricks to have a more finished look like the front of the building.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very nice set! Highly recommended!

The only 2 suggestions for improvement I have is to include the Jin Mao Tower (one of the original landmarks in Pudong) plus more detailed Chenghuang Miao Temple, Longhua Temple and Pagoda. I am less concerned about keeping to scale, than having more details of these beautiful structures. Perhaps Lego can release an updated version taking my suggestions into account. On the same note, I'd also like to recommend Lego create a new set depicting Xin Tian Di (plenty of structures there).
