LEGO recently unveiled its massive Sagrada Família set, priced at $799.99, making it the largest LEGO set ever created. While it pays homage to the legendary architect Antonin Gaudí, some feel it misses a key aspect that makes the real building intriguing.
The real Sagrada Família in Barcelona took 144 years to build, contrasting with the plastic brick version that can be assembled in a few days. Some suggest that a staggered release of multiple sets over time could have captured the essence of this architectural marvel.
The set, comprising 12,060 pieces, showcases intricate details of the iconic church's exterior, though the interior's stained-glass features are less elaborate. Preorders for the set are available at $799.99 on the LEGO website, with a release date set for November 1, 2026.
