"I got hooked on Lego after purchasing and building the Saturn 5! If you love that set, then this is a MUST BUY! If you are fan of NASA and especially the Apollo Program, then you absolutely need this set. I watched the Moon landing live, back in 1969, and this set (along with the Saturn 5), brings all of that back to life!"

"I loved building this. It was pretty challenging for me because of the many, many small bricks (my eye site is not very good up close), but I loved doing it. I absolutely love the detail both inside and out. The coin-sorting machine was pretty ingenious, in my opinion! This was my 3rd modular building, and want to get more."

"This was my 1st Modular building, and I am hooked. The build was a lot of fun, and there were some interesting techniques. Building the water barrel, that goes on the roof, was very different, and turned out amazing looking! The details inside were top notch. I highly recommend this set."

"This was a fun build, but pretty tedious with tons of tiny (and clear!) pieces. It was more challenging to build than I thought it would be, but I mean that as a POSITIVE! I like the fact that it took me longer to build that I originally thought. I It looks awesome displayed close to my "Old Fishing Store". Just in caser you buy this (I highly recommend it!), let me mention this. It may save you from a little stress! **When I got to the part where I was inserting the ship into the partially built bottle, I was concerned that the ship masts were too tall and the bottle pieces wouldn't fit over it. But it was done this way on purpose to securely hold the ship inside the bottle. The bottle pieces that fit above the masts are a little different and WILL fit and will help keep the ship snug!"

"I just finished building this, and it is amazing! The attention to detail is outstanding, down to the crooked tiles and patched up roof. I highly recommend this set. I will proudly display it in my living room."
