A True Lighthouse Model
on July 10, 2024
Posted by: PrinceDevotedTortoise104
This set is really something special by Lego. The original model was made in a smaller micro figure scale and really appreciate Lego bumped it up to Mini-figure scale.
This set is pretty unique for a Lego model, including the electronics and moving parts that you don't often see, and when they do show up in their Powered Up category, very rarely is it also made to mini figure scale.
The building experience is great, this set includes a very special fresnel lens piece made just for this set to mimic that Lens used in a real lighthouse, and seeing details like this makes the book/building process very interesting.
When the model is complete it holds up really well. Something about lighthouses just feel so timeless, so this set works great by itself or with virtually any other lego purchase you may have. Will attach some pictures with the Lighthouse in front of the Modular Building Series. As you can see it fits the scale very well, towering over the other buildings and grounded with your standard 32x32 baseplate.
This set has me very anticipated for what Lego will come up with next, huge fan of seeing electronics and moving parts used in a model. For upkeep the only thing you'll have to worry about with the Lighthouse overtime is changing the batteries which are at the bottom of the rock foundation and very easy to access.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Lighthouse

This was a good build. I didn’t rate it as a 5 because after it was complete the light/ motor doesn’t work. I am not in the mood at this time to disassemble it to troubleshoot. The instructions should have had a section at the very beginning to wire up the battery pack and to test the motor and light “BEFORE” assembly.
I would recommend this to a friend!
Response from LEGOBy Sam, LEGO® Customer Service, August 22, 2024
Oh no! It's disappointing when your build isn’t going as planned. We're sorry to hear that the motor in the Lighthouse isn't working as it should. Please give us a call or chat at LEGO.build/Service-BV so we can get the parts you need requested!
This is a truly breath-taking set. It has great potential for accenting a room or adding to an existing Lego Diorama. The light does a really great job of lighting up a darkened room and shines for a nice distance. The only thing that would make this set even better would be if it had a power cord instead of batteries.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Verified Purchase:No
I finally got this set and I really liked it. It was an enjoyable build. I wish the motor was quieter, but oh well. I'm not running it all day. It's so neat to look at! I added stripes to the tower to create some variety.
I bought this set largely to give my room some life during the night as that’s when I’m typically awake. Unfortunately the grating annoying sound of the motorized parts being active prevents me from wanting to keep it turned on for extended periods. At least it looks nice… Should’ve read other reviews a bit more first.
This was my first time building a Lego set and I really enjoyed the process. The directions were spot on, just make sure to correctly identify the pieces that you need for each step first since some of the parts are very similar. One thing that I wish was better is the noise level of the motor. It isn't extremely loud, but just enough to not want it to be on for a longer period of time. With today's technology, I think that this could be much better. Overall, I enjoyed the build & loved all of the cute little extras that were incorporated into the scene (cat, bat, seagull, treasure chest).
