LEGO 21051 Architecture Tokyo

Product Information

This allows us to ensure you have an enjoyable experience with faster entrance into the attraction and reduced crowding.

In the first two years they released three sets, and each year since they have added just two cities to the series. That’s too bad, since there are a dozen interesting buildings within the palace grounds that could have been included. Recreate some of Tokyo’s most famous buildings with this detailed LEGO® Architecture Skyline Collection 21051 desk toy. The LEGO re-creation of both towers loses most of their graceful curving shape, and retains none of the latticework that reminds me of fine handmade lace. Unfortunately we cannot deliver to BFPO addresses and some large items are shipped directly from our suppliers who ship to the UK mainland only.While there are no new parts in this set, there are a few parts appearing in new colors for the first time. I also wish that they did a custom printed tile for the crosswalks (zebra crossings), as the diagonal crosswalk is one of the most iconic aspects of this intersection, but is missing from the LEGO model. The case is flat-packed and assembled by screwing together the front and back acrylic panels with the sides, using the 8 screws provided.

Overall playtime on weekends and public holidays may be restricted to a maximum of 3 hours to ensure all our guests have ample time to enjoy all the bricktastic activities we have inside. The model offers a number of useful new parts and an enjoyable construction process full of techniques and details to keep the interest of the builder. I think that printed parts are necessary to capture such small details as, say, the minuscule Ferrari logo, or the intricate latticework on the Mode Gakuen Tower. From iconic landmarks to city skyline models, there's something for anyone interested in architecture, travel, history and design.

One negative point is that Tokyo has been around for three years, which is longer than average, so this needs to be factored in. It’s a great souvenir for Tokyo visitors and an ideal gift for adults in love with Japan’s capital city or who dream of visiting. A total of 19 printed parts would be a lot for any set, and is much more than we’ve ever seen in the LEGO Architecture series. Tile (part 2555) in 194 Medium Stone Grey Light Bluish Gray, with White Crosswalk Pattern (element 6286223).

Ideal for display, collectible LEGO® Architecture models of iconic landmarks and city skylines offer a variety of rewarding building experiences for anyone interested in architecture, travel, history and design. Despite never having visited Tokyo, I was immediately drawn to the bright colors and the staggered composition.
