      I ordered this last week: http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Robie-House-21010



      I'm like a little kid waiting for that damn thing to get here. I'll probably have it built the first night. I'm collecting the whole architecture series and will use them to decorate my home office.


      HA. I don't even want to admit how much money is wrapped up in this picture.

        I just ordered the massive 7500 piece Millennium Falcon set. It’s something for my son and I to do. It’ll also look pretty damn awesome in my office.

        I currently have the Saturn V an the new Lunar Lander in my office. Still gotta figure out where to put the Falcon.

          Very nice.

          My home office is pretty much wall-to-wall Lego on display, and I must say that it’s been nice. You can’t be bored in here.

            I hope you have a lot of room to display that thing its massive. I ended up dismantling and selling it for what i payed for it.

                My daughter and I have built many of the architecture ones. We are currently working on the US capital building.

                  I have instruction for three big MOC's (My Own Creation) that I found online. The WTC towers (5,289 pcs), Sears Tower (6,185 pcs) & the Empire State Building (4,538 pcs). They range from $300 to $600 to buy all of the pieces. I haven't pulled the trigger on any of those yet.

                    That Saturn V is really cool. I don't own anything other than the Architecture series but I may buy that one to build with all of my kids. I think they'd thoroughly enjoy that. EDIT: ordered from eBay.

                    I've also considered the Disney Castle but I'm just not really into that one. We'll see if I can find a 'good' deal on it. Darned things get expensive when they're retired.

                      Have you ever seen an MOC for the pad 39A launch pad for the Saturn V. I'd love to build that for mine.

                        This?

                        EDIT: those aren't LEGO. Link me a pic of what you're looking for. Now you've got me wanting to build a launchpad to display this thing.

                          This is a really cool display for the Saturn V:



                          I have seen the whole gantry setup too.

                            The instructions are out there, it's just a matter of finding them... and hopefully a parts list.

                              Ahh, I didn't know Lepin had a kit. I'll check that out.

                                Be careful out there: https://www.welightbrick.com/product...mbilical-tower

                                read the comments.

                                I found a page with the story from the LEGO designer that built this kit. He said LEGO designed the tower and then decided not to build it (too many parts, only people interested would be a small portion of those that bought the Saturn V) and LEGO decided not to produce. Instructions were made available with a parts list and then knock-off companies stole the design and started producing junk versions and not filling orders. So Lego took down all copies of the instructions, lists, etc.
