LEGO Creator Grand Emporium 10211 (Discontinued by manufacturer)

This package came a very long distance with absolutely no damage. Have you ever ordered something, waited eagerly for its arrival, then been disappointed when the box arrived crushed? I have. But not this time! It was so very well packaged that it might as well have come directly from a store shelf to my house with no travel in between. The price was competitive, the Lego set was exactly as described, and I would definitely buy from this vendor in the future. Thank you for the excellent service!On top of all that, I really enjoyed building this set, and it’s a lovely addition to the series.

We bought this set along with the Fire Brigade #10197 and the Pet Shop #10214 to build a "mini-town" and enjoy the sets together. These were purchased for our 11 yr twin boys, and they loved it.This set has incredible detail, and is fun to build. I built this set (Dad), and each of my boys built the other two (Fire Brigade and Pet Shop) . The build was enjoyable, and it was fun to watch them come together. in fact, we enjoyed it so much, that we started building the sets on a Sunday morning together, and we all stayed with it until the sets were done a few hours later. It was a fun family project.These sets are still built - we built them originally over a year ago. And my sons still play with them occasionally. We enjoyed building these so much, and the time spent with my sons building them was so fun I am having trouble finding the strength to take them apart! (I am sure someone out there can relate).Would buy again, and recommend for Lego lovers. Are they over-priced.... well, maybe. Legos are not cheap, and they have escalated the pricing a bit as the popularity increases... so some are not happy about that. Me? If I did not want to pay the price, then I would not buy them. One thing for sure, resale is good - that says a lot!!

Great seller communication, excellent quality and packaging of the product.

Purchased this set in order to feed a craving I've had since my young daughter recently began getting into lego's. Between the Creator series and Technic, a big kid can still have plenty of fun with Lego's. My daughter very much enjoyed watching her father toil over this set for a few hours. This is, by far, the largest Lego set I have ever seen, let alone purchased. $150 is tough (for some) to swallow for a single Lego set, but this one seems well worth the investment. When the set promptly arrived in 2 days, the shipping box was almost as tall (and thin) as I am. I was also surprised that the Lego Box itself (dense and heavy) was almost as large as the shipping box. Once again, some gratification for all the money spent.This set utilizes Lego's modular build technique, which provides instruction for assembly in 3 stages. At 2,182 pieces, it definitely takes some time and patience to assemble. I was expecting the construction to take longer than it did (about 3-4 hours with intermittent building/breaks/distractions). Once completed, it's almost too nice looking to play with. I've shelved it until I get around to building the rest of the town. In short, the best part of this set, as with any Lego set, is the attention to detail. I mean, c'mon... escalators, a chandelier, intricate tile. etc. All good stuff. As with anything in life, you get what you pay for. Overall, a great purchase and even better building experience. Can't wait for the next one.

This was purchased for my 13 year old daughter and she completed the 3 storeys in about 4 hours over two days this Christmas, despite this being makred as a kit for 16+ years, which surprised me. I helped minimally twice when the pictorial instructions were a bit ambiguous with the colors of the pieces (is it silver of grey?). Otherwise she found it entertaining, absorbing and fun, and it has rekindled her interest in Lego again.I was truly amazed at the level of detail in this model, since my main Lego building days were over 30 years ago when sets were much more basic. By the standards of my childhood these latest kits from Lego are spectacular!The designers get 5/5 for the fact that the 3 storeys are so well planned that they attach to each other yet separate easily into each floor for ease of play. This was always one of the biggest problems when I was a kid, making it almost impossible to play with a multi-storey building.The attention to detail in this set is wonderful. Other have mentioned their favorite pieces so I will my daughter's- Revolving doors- Roof billboard- Window cleaner- Escalator- Shop signI will definitely be buying more Lego based on this experience.

This was a beautiful building and I enjoyed putting it together! They really did a nice job years back in adding detail that just isn’t there in today’s Modulars. Although it was somewhat pricey I’m glad I now own this set.

I hesitated for a few weeks on whether to purchase this kit or not, and now that I have completed it I am happy I did. The pictures of this kit do not do it justice. It is very detailed with a great deal going on with it. It is modular so that you can see the great detail inside, and there is a great deal to see. I would highly recommend this kit and feel it is also a valuable addition to my collection.On a side not, I wish "reviewers" would stop using product reviews to whine about sellers on Amazon. The reviews are for the PRODUCTS, not the sellers. If you do not like the sellers price, do what I do, don't buy from them. Stop ruining product reviews with childish whining.

This is a kit for the adult Lego fans and it is amazing...It took my wife 8 hours to finish it and it has a lot of interior details and outside details. I have spend countless minutes staring and admiring the outside and the interior details of the building. The whole setup also give me inspiration and imagining how one will live in a city and shop in such a store...Warning: After you build one of the Modular Buildings series, there will be no going back, building other Lego set or series will seem lame and uninteresting, this is a fair warning :)

nie bereut, damals privat hier gekauft, für €200, war super.... eins meiner Lieblingshäuser, aber für den aktuellen Preis einfach nur überteuert. Die Figuren sind schön, die Rolltreppen im Haus, einfach ein schönes Häuschen - macht sich super in der Reihe.

街シリーズで何点か購入した商品の１つで説明書も分かりやすく楽しく作ります

Awesome. Love it.

Poco se puede decir que no se haya dicho ya de los modulares de lego. Si ya los conoces, estás ante uno de esos sets de lego que dentro de muy poco se convertirán en clásico. Si eres nuevo para este tipo de construcciones (aunque hayas construido mil y una cosas con lego) te enfrentarás a algo diferente; más pequeño de lo que esperas pero tan delicado y cuidado que su montaje es puro goce.El set está lleno de detalles. Es divertido y el resultado final es espectacular. La experiencia es muy recomendable.

Enfant, j'ai toujours été fan de Lego et je possédais une grande collection. J'ai toujours revé que Lego propose des batiments plus détaillés, autre que les habituelles casernes de police et pompier...Il a fallu que j'attende d'etre adulte pour que Lego sorte enfin une gamme de produits collector qui a commencé avec le Café Corner, suivi du Market Street, Le Green Grocer, la caserne des Pompiers, etc.Après quelques années d'hésitation, et voyant surtout que ces produits deviennent vite rares et très chers avec le temps, je me suis laissé tenté par ce grand Emporium !Un tel batiment de plus de 2000 pièces est un grand moment pour tout amateur de Lego, quel plaisir de déballer une si grande boite et d'étaler tous ces sachets de pièces sur une table... Bien sur, il y a des centaines de petits éléments et tout cela n'est pas à mettre entre les mains des plus jeunes ! Ce type d'article doit à mon sens etre plutot reservé à la collection ou à l'exposition plus qu'au jeu. Pour le montage, il m'a fallu un peu plus de 4 heures pour l'ensemble (environ 2h pour le rdc et 1h par étage).Bien sur, tout n'est pas parfait, les 2 étages sont assez répétitifs dans le montage, on peut reprocher un manque d'aménagement au niveau de la quantité d'articles dans le magasin, mais tout de meme, une fois monté, on a vraiment un batiment de très belle architecture, qui en impose ! De sympatiques petites détails enrichissent le modèle, tels la cabine d'essayage, le laveur de vitres et sa nacelle... Il est également délicat de déplacer le batiment d'un seul bloc, car les étages sont juste posés. A noter qu'il n'y a aucun autocollant dans ce set.Avantage du Lego, on peut parfaitement compléter soi meme l'aménagement intérieur en ajoutant des rayons, des articles et des personnages, pour donner encore plus de vie à l'ensemble.Avec cette gamme modulaire, on peut envisager de créer toute une rue sur le meme thème, les batiments pouvant se combiner les uns aux autres. Il faut bien sur, avoir la place et les finances pour ceci...
