LEGO Architecture 21024 Het Louvre

Made very quickly, happy husband! Destroyed by kids quickly, unhappy husband! I chose this because it was a happy medium between lego's high prices and the size of the product (when buying for an adult). It's not a bad likeness compared to the real thing. It makes a nice ornament too for when it's done. Kids will want to help, but it really is too hard for them, not to mention the pieces are very small. When made, it is roughly a 15cm square on the bottom and 10 cm high. Hold from the bottom, holding the building will result in cave ins! I got this for £40, and it took my husband an hour. He understands that lego for adults is very expensive, so never asked for it. This was a lovely surprise for him, and was glad for his hour of building!

A fantastic idea a toy company that came up with a GENDER NEUTRAL TOY AT LAST. Far to many toys are gender specific lego's included blue (war toys for boys) Pink (dolls and kitchens for girls). Toys play a huge part in children's lives and development, toys that constantly remind a child how society expected them to behave 40 years ago are not helpful in todays changing world. A product that could help inspire to produce the budding engineers and Architects of the future. Bring on more ranges like this my daughter and son both enjoyed building this over Christmas, now I'm looking forward to purchasing the rest of the range.

Bought this for my husband for Christmas and he loved it.

Well, I just finished building the Louvre, from the Lego architecture series. It's fairly easy going and makes a nice break from the Mercedes-Benz (Lego 42043). It's nice to look at too. Now if I could just find some space for it, away from my cats. Shame Lego don't give one very many spare parts. Could always use extra glass pieces. Have fun, everyone! Now back to the Mercedes nightmare.....

Fun little model but not huge - over priced for it but guess trademarks have a bearing
