International Space Station Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“While International Space Station has been slightly underperforming yearly growth when compared to other sets in Ideas, at an average annual growth rate of around 8%, this set is still a decent investment for most LEGO collector portfolios.”

“I think a lot of adult fans will love this set, it was designed by a dedicated fan designer and has been turned into a great LEGO representation of the ISS... I think the LEGO Ideas Designers have done a great job staying true to the model that was voted for (twice) in this... More case.”

“If you were a fan of the Saturn V, this is the perfect set to accompany it. It certainly doesn’t have the same imposing scale, but it has a impressive visual appeal.”

“In the end, the International Space Station is a solid set. Even buying it is at full price, you are getting a good value for both individual bricks, as well as build time. The set sits on a nice display stand and has multiple points of articulation that allow you to... More position it just right for your shelf. My main point of contention with the kit is the lack of Minifigures.”
