“The Lego designers have done an excellent job representing Trafalgar Square and the National Gallery at such a small size. I particularly liked the tree build and fountains. I liked the hidden galleries behind the building but thought the printed tiles used for the art where... More a bit childish in design but full marks for having no dreaded stickers.”

Brickset
“Architecture sets have become increasingly impressive and 21045 Trafalgar Square looks absolutely wonderful. I love its bright colour scheme which stands out on display and the detailing is exceptional, employing some innovative building techniques and exciting pieces.... More Furthermore, this is probably the greatest example of integration between a building and its environment within the Architecture theme.”

Brick Architect
“While I do not love the completed model, it exposes LEGO fans to many creative building techniques that we have never seen in an official LEGO set. This earned my respect, and allows me to give an enthusiastic “Good” (3/5 star) rating to a set that I don’t actually like all... More that much. This set might have earned a mixed review, but it offers interesting techniques, great parts, and a good value.”
