Arc de Triomphe Reviews
New Elementary
“It's undeniably a really nicely detailed model for its price point with a lotta really neat SNOT-work, especially around the top area – as much as I expressed slight horror at the amount of rocker bearings earlier, the resulting architectural detail they provide absolutely... More suits the model down to the ground. It's not overbearing or completely bare, it's just the right amount of detailing – it's a bit like Goldilocks, basically. It's Goldilocks greebling.”

“Overall this is an OK model - one the one hand an iconic building that should be included in the Lego Architecture line-up. On the other, a lot of compromises had to be made to render the original in a Lego structure that still fits the constraints of the architecture range.... More And with that, at the same time it is its strength and its weakness: yes, it looks like the Arc de Triomphe, but at the same time in the details it is off, turning it a bit into a generic triumphal arch.”

“Overall, I would say that the #21036 LEGO Architecture Arc de Triomphe is a nice display-piece on a desk or shelf, and a great souvenir for LEGO fans who appreciate French architecture, or perhaps visited the city in the past. The colors and decorations are lovely, and... More represent the real structure well. However, because the model is on the smaller side, it lacks the immensely satisfying building experience of the larger LEGO Architecture sets.”
