Customer Reviews for LEGO - Technic NASA Artemis Space Launch System Rocket 42221

This set was fun to build because it utilizes gears, a crank shaft, and worm gears to simulate the SLS launching Orion into Space. I think it's very cool to see the motion of the boosters separating the main engine and then watching Orion separate from the main engine.
The timing of this set release was spot on given the up incoming Artemis II mission.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This interactive set is a decently sized set for the price, and if you’re into spacecraft, you’ll enjoy this one! I’m currently displaying this bad boy next to my Lego Pharrell Williams “Over The Moon” spaceship :)

Love this LEGO set—it’s history in the making!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just traveled to Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida to see the Artemis II rocket on the launchpad for myself, so I was really excited to receive this LEGO Technic Space NASA Artemis Space Launch System Rocket. It has 632 pieces, ensuring a satisfying build time, and it makes for a great display piece once you’re finished building it. What’s unique about this set is it actually has some mechanical functionality—something a lot of LEGO fans have been asking to see more of in sets. When you turn the crank on the side, the boosters separate from the rocket and you can visualize the rocket in multiple stages. VERY cool!!! As an engineer and space enthusiast, I’m floored by this LEGO set and love the design! The little astronaut LEGO figures are really neat, too. I’ve already purchase two more of this particular Technic set to give as gifts to my nerdy friends for their birthdays because the price is great!

I absolutely love Space sets and it was such a blast to build! Challenging in the way and motivates you to keep building and the payoff was so well done! Wonderful build mechanics!

This is a wonderful set! The way you can both display and "launch" the SLS is brilliant. Nice to look at, and fun to play with!

Awesome Set to Display

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this Lego set! Working in the aerospace industry, exciting to build sets based on real rockets like Artemis, SLS, and Shuttle in a week instead of the years poured into the integration of the real thing. My son learns engineering concepts from the mechanics of the moving parts and realistic separation mechanisms. Hope Lego continues to add rockets such as New Glenn, Falcon, and Alpha to its collections.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free thanks to Influenster and LEGO in exchange for my honest review! I love LEGO sets, especially difficult ones, and this one was so cool! I love how the stand was built in so I could easily put this cool set on display. I’m glad I was able to try this, and see other sets in collab with NASA!
