We didn't really mind it taking so long because the whole experience was actually quite relaxing. If you're an art lover and a LEGO fan, you'll...

The use of pop culture icons such as The Beatles and Marilyn Monroe extends that... More appeal to fans of The Beatles, Monroe and Warhol. The build is something you can do whilst watching a movie or better still as you listen to the exclusively created ‘soundtracks'.”
