LEGO Architecture Guggenheim Museum (21035) Revealed

January 2, 2017 / / 1 Comment

LEGO Architecture Guggenheim Museum 21035

The LEGO Architecture theme will be continuing this year and it looks like we have our first look at the Guggenheim Museum (21035) from the LEGO Italian Catalog. This updated version is larger and more detailed than the 2009 version. I believe this the second LEGO Architecture set to be redesigned from one that has been released before with the first being the Burj Khalifa (21008).

The new Guggenheim Museum (21305) joins Sydney (21302), Chicago (21033), and London (21035) as lineup for the Winter 2017 LEGO Architecture sets.

LEGO Architecture Buckingham Palace (21029) Review

LEGO Architecture Buckingham Palace (21029)

Following after my review of the LEGO Architecture United States Capitol Building (21030), I have the other summer 2016 release set with the Buckingham Palace (21029). Coming in at 780 pieces while retailing for $49.99, it has a $0.06/piece ratio but that may be a little misleading which I’ll get to a little later. The contents of the box include five un-numbered bags, three loose 8×16 plates, and the instruction booklet.

LEGO Architecture United States Capitol Building (21030)

LEGO has recently released a couple of new LEGO Architecture sets and the first one I’ll be reviewing is the United States Capitol Building (21030). It is the larger of the two summer wave sets coming in at 1032 pieces and retailing for $99.99. It is currently the third largest landmark Architecture set that LEGO has produced. The contents of the box include 9 un-numbered bags, six loose 8×16 plates, and a very thick instruction booklet.

For the LEGO Architecture fans, there are now official images of the two summer 2016 sets from Amazon. Even though there are only two sets coming out, they are both very nice, hefty looking builds.

The Brick Fan LEGO Architecture Building Contest Voting

April 9, 2016 / / 8 Comments

Last month, I started the Architecture Building Contest on here to have readers create some miniature buildings and monuments of their real life counterpart in the new Architecture Skyline design to win some cool prizes. There are some really awesome entries over in the Flickr Group but unfortunately one of the entries wasn’t based on a real life city, which was stated in the rules, so I can’t include it in the voting process but it was a very good one though based on Batman’s Gotham.

Check out the builds below and if you need a reference to the real life building, I’ve also linked to images of them. Then cast your vote in the Strawpoll link below of which Architecture build resembles the real life buildings the best. The voting period will run until 11:59pm PST on April 16. The city with the most votes will be declared the winner of our very first contest!

Update: After a slight error, there was another entry that wasn’t previously added. Please recast your vote in the link below.

The Brick Fan LEGO Architecture Building Contest

Late last year, I reviewed some of the new 2016 LEGO Architecture sets including Venice (21026), Berlin (21027), New York City (21028), and Burj Khalifa (21031). I’m happy to announce our very first building contest which happens to revolve around the LEGO Architecture theme with some nice prizes up for grabs.

Contest Rules

This contest will run from March 7 to April 7 and you will be building it similar to the new Architecture Skyline design. Choose any city in the world and create five miniature buildings or monuments that are famous in that city.

Since we’re keeping it fairly simple, the build should be more or less around 10 inches in length by 10 inches in height with some leeway for overhang no more than two studs.

How to Enter

There are a few ways to submit your creation. One way is to add it to the Flickr Group. Another way is on Instagram. For both sites, please use the hashtag #tbfarch so we can easily find your submission.

Entries will be judged on how closely the buildings resemble the real life building.

Fine Print

One entry per person.

Participants from United States Only.

Please do not use decals or stickers.
