Women of NASA Reviews
BricktasticBlog
“This subgenre of space, though, only increases the collectibility. With multiple NASA and space releases across multiple themes in the last few years, 21312 Women of NASA is one to collect. It’s also unique in that it’s only of women, and has had it’s fair share of... More controversy and discussion since it was announced as a release.”
Brickfinder
“A satisfying set with a simple build experience that is great for novices starting out especially if they are Space fans. The parts to price ration could be better but do note that there are a lot of unique printed parts in this set along with the exclusive minifigures... More torsos and head pieces which definitely adds to the value.”
The Brick Fan
“The LEGO Ideas Women of NASA (21312) set is nice looking set that has a similar feel to the LEGO Ideas Research Institute (21110) in terms of the small vignette builds for the women featured. I do appreciate the accuracy of the minifigures to the builds themselves especially... More the one for Margaret Hamilton in that iconic picture.”
