Lady Liberty
on June 16, 2018
Posted by: Bowler4Lyfe
I've been to the Statue a Liberty a few years ago. It was really something then, This set was added to my Architecture section. Overall, the repetition is mainly to the plinth section. There is very minimal, if any repetition on the statue build. Be careful on those little small green pieces on part of the body, as I can see why it can be tricky to mess it up. I was impressed with the height and size, a little bit bigger than I expected. The face could've been a little better, but it's not really bothersome if you don't think about it and from a distance, not really noticeable. Overall, a great set.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Simply Awesome !!

I have never really been interested in the architecture series, and have never built one before. I have always predominately been a Lego Star Wars nut. But when I saw the Statue of Liberty I just had to have it ?
I spent 4 nights building this model and right from the beginning I was blown away with the incredible detail of this model. As I opened each bag, it just got better and better.
I would just like to say Great Job LEGO !!
I have now ordered the Great Wall of China and I am sure this will be just as fun.

Super Display Piece

Thanks to my grandson I’ve been turned on to the world of Lego. My first few builds were quite simple and fun experiences, starting with the Yellow Submarine and progressing to the VW Beetle. I found the Statue of Liberty to be a refreshing challenge, an enjoyable build that ended with a great display piece. Hats off to LEGO.

Honestly.....

Honestly the base of this set is great with outstanding detail. Great instructions. Although, the body and the face is a disgrace to Lady Liberty. It looks like the designer didn’t even try. The flame on the torch looks like hair from a minifigure. Sad set.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This was a crazy build with so many tiny pieces! Some parts are very repetitive, 4x, once for each side. My biggest complaint is the lack of a face on the statue. Why no face LEGO? This is such an iconic statue and to just leave it blank seems wrong.

The face, or lack of.....

The Lego design of the face is an insult to French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi. And me. This statue has a lot of meaning to millions of people. It deserved better treatment.

Response from LEGOBy Emily, Customer Service, June 12, 2018
Hey there! Thank you for your review. Your feedback is important to us, and we're sorry to hear that you didn't like the design of your LEGO® set. Our designers always work really hard to create sets that fit within a theme's style while finding unique, creative ways of showcasing our existing elements. Though every detail of her Lady Liberty's face may not be on display in this set, she still stands tall, serving as a symbol of freedom.

Missed Opportunity
on July 25, 2021
Posted by: TelepathicPenguin85
As it stands now, it is the worst Lego set that I own. The build is challenging but the end product doesn’t look too appealing. The simplest thing Lego can do to improve this set is to do something about the face of the statue. Add a sticker or create a inquire Lego piece for the face. The blank face is just lazy on the detail of such an iconic monument. Can’t recommend this to anyone until Lego changes the face.

Very Nice

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.
