Really good set, very accurate to the real thing apart from the size. However that’s not to say it’s small, as lego goes it’s a very good set for the price.
As something of an Apollo geek, I’ve had my eye on this kit since it’s first release. To celebrate getting to write about the space race for an astronomy magazine, I decided to finally treat myself.
I’ve not built anything from Lego in about 40 years, but love watching the amazing creations built by contestants on the various Lego Masters shows. As ever, the instructions are clear and easy to read. As others have noted, you do end up making multiple of the same or similar sub-assemblies, so it isn’t the most varied build, but if you’re more interested in the finished model, that’s not a huge issue. Everything is there to illustrate an Apollo lunar mission from lift off to splash down. The one slight inaccuracy; the third stage detaches as one piece, rather than the booster then interstate, but that is a very minor quibble.
As the Saturn V takes up a lot of room when displayed horizontally on the included stands, I added a compatible stand to hold the rocket vertically.
Highly recommended for any Apollo fan.
As an adult this ticked all the boxes for me, best Xmas present for years!
An excellent model of the Saturn 5 and easily worth putting on show somewhere in the home if you have the space.
A nostalgic model for those of us that remember those early space flights and trips to the Moon…
We have loads of Lego sets in our household but this is my absolute favourite.
Although the build is quite repetitive and predictable, it is still enjoyable. The finished product is fantastic, impressive size at great value. Highly recommend this set!
Das Modell ist fantastisch! Mein Sohn hatte zu Weihnachten seine wahre Freude und auch heute ist die Rakete mit all ihren Details immer noch schn anzusehen. (Bespielbar schwierig und nicht zu empfehlen, da das Modell sehr schwer ist und an den Raketenstufen leicht auseinandergehen kann – und wenns fllt wird es schwer, das wieder zusammen zu bauen!!)
Ich will hier mal Amazon loben – Ich hatte diese Rakete drei Wochen vor Weihnachten im Legoshop bestellt – vier Tage vor Weihnachten war sie immer noch nicht da. Drei Tage vor Weihnachten habe ich die Rakete dann doch noch schnell bei Amazon bestellt und ein Tag vor Weihnachten war sie dann von Amazon geliefert. Die Lego bestellte Rakete ist nicht mehr vor Weihnachten gekommen und auch nicht danach… Eine Stornierung dauerte dann bei Lego bis zum Februar hinein – dann habe ich nach mehrmaligem Kontakt erst mein Geld zurck bekommen! Danke Amazon, du hast Weihnachten gerettet!
Good experience and techniques to achieve the angles in the build. My 14 year old lego fan built this on his own. He had it built over several days, but his estimate is 3-4 hours build time with 12 bags (approx) in the box. Looks good can be displayed stood up and is tall or led down on the included stand.
With regards to sturdiness, when led down, the nose cone section can srop off due to the weight of the built, wike us up one nigh
Note this model is aimed at 14+ age and not really suitable for someone younger without supervision.
If you have not done one of these major Lego models before, take a few moments to look at the instructions to first familiarise yourself with the iconography. It is straight forward but worth taking the time. After that you should have no problems.
It is pleasing to see how the model builds from the inside out and gradually reveals itself in full glory.
Be aware the completed Saturn V is over a metre tall, so think about where you want to finally display it! (Though you can always break it back down and build it again at another time!).
Have to build the Shuttle and Hubble next!
This was the absolute present. It is BIG!!!! I was completly suprised how big is it . Not fully done yet but, it is already more than 1meter tall. It is super accurate.
Very good model you must be careful though the orientation of some seemingly insignificant parts at the start have to be right or some parts later on in the build won’t attach and you could end up having to take some of it apart again. Follow the instructions very carefully.
If you love LEGO and like me getting back into it at…cough…50 something and love Space stuff then this is for you. Yes it’s not cheap and Yes you can get a replica of it from a certain country for 1/4 the price (without official box) but you have to remember the LEGO engineers and designers who sat down and thought “How can we do this”? and then figured it out.
You can see their thinking when building this and you complete a section and go “What? Who thought of that”?
This isn’t a 3 foot 3 inch high tube of bricks. It’s a solid multi stage build that I loved every minute of so much I’ve ordered the Space Shuttle from LEGO (haven’t told wifey yet…yikes).
Take your time, pour a drink maybe and enjoy it.
I like everything about this set the size the accuracy how great it looks and how much fun it was building kept me occupied for a good couple of days I like that it has the capsule as well that you can display separately a really well produced Lego se
Proves Lego is not just for children.
I wanted an interesting object for my desktop. This proved to be perfect.
The kit consists of several bags of Lego making you build one part at time.
Easy to follow but I made the building of it last a couple of weeks, didn’t want to rush.
Looking at several related Lego projects but waiting to get a good deal on prices.
Bought for me by my wife for Christmas. Brilliant item. Have always had a passion for the moon shots. And, at nearly 60 I still love lego.
Bought for my 13 year old son. Considering he also had a ps5 this was the first thing he wanted to do and loved it. Impressive once built and goes nicely with other Lego items he has such as the landing and satellite.
I bought this to wall mount and display because I quite like the Apollo program. It took about 3 days to build because I only spent a few hours each night after work with my dad but it was a repetitive but enjoyable build. The final model looks great and i love how it comes apart in stages. I recommend this so much that my co worker even bought one
Lovely set this one over a meter tall when fihishef
This item was much cheaper than other sites, and as always arrived promptly.
Pricey but hours of pleasure for my other half, who is still a kid at heart!
Made a night of building this with uni buddies. Top set in terms of value for money, looks great on display. Build it how you enjoy most, alone or with friends, and I’m sure you’ll love i
As an Apollo geek, I suppose I was always going to like this, so maybe this is a biased review. But I thought this kit was superb. My family of 4 built it as a ‘team’, which maybe mitigated some of the ‘repeat 4 times’ boredom other people have complained about. The result is a thing of beauty. For added geek value, I recommend the Saturn V “Haynes Manual” as well, which has more information than you could possibly imagine about how they designed and built it – I found it a very interesting companion to the Lego build.
I thoroughly enjoyed building this. But I have to question the apparent complexity of the internal structure which you don’t actually see once built. The designers used several small bricks where just one larger one would suffice – maybe I’ve missed the point. Maybe they just wanted to pad the number of bricks to 1969 as a nod to the year Apollo II went to the moon. The major design flaw to my thinking is that the black and white pattern on the upper part of Stage 2 is regular, whereas on the real thing it’s an irregular pattern allowing ground observers to determine the rotational attitude of the launch vehicle during take-off and flight. But, given the restrictions of Lego bricks, this is an excellent model.
Great kit, fun to build. Makes a very sturdy model for display.
OK valve for money for A LEGO product, some harder parts to connect so younger ones may need help.
Great build, had a lot of fun putting this together now it sits towering over my room from my desk.
This model is very sturdy and impressive looking,enjoyable to make, and comparing to my Revell kit looks as accurate as you can for a Lego kit.
The packaging and booklet are equally nicely thought out and it was so satisfying to build. Also has some really lovely bonus features like the mini lunar module (that can fit inside the 3rd stage) and an excellent little command module in post-splashdown configuration.
Only real problem with this purchase is that it has ignited a bit of a need in me for more NASA Lego and I’ve ended up buying the larger Lunar Module and the ISS as well. Plus I had to get a decent sized display case to put it in… Could get to be an expensive habit!
This was my first Lego model I have put together and I was surprised how good the end result looked. I did have to backtrack at one point in assembling the stage two as I had misread the diagram at one point. It is a bit pricy as seems to be the case with Lego but it locks together very well as a finished model.
great lego set if you’re into rockets and space. Although it was quite difficult to put together it looks great and even has detachable sections much like the real saturn rocke
Looks really good once assembled, you need to be patient and look at assembly instructions closely. Stands approximately 1 Metre (40 inches) tall with a diameter of approximately 90mm (9cm).
It’s Lego, it’s bricks you put them together and it makes a rocket, made one engineering student very happy
Bought as a gift and he loved it! Took a while to build and was quite complex in parts but much enjoyed.
This was probably the best building experience I’ve had from a lego set. The obvious is its a massive really cool looking set, but the best bits for me was that it didn’t include stickers all the pieces where printed so there’s no wonky looking bits. I’m also really thankful for the minimal technic pieces, it’s not that I don’t enjoy technic but when it’s a large build with lots of technic it can be a pain but this set was really easy to build. I built mine in about 3 and a half hours and would really recommend as it looks great on display
A real pleasure to build. Printed pieces and very detailed. 1969 pieces 😉 Little easter egg there. Not much more to say other than I highly recommend the set to anybody who loves Lego. I’m no space fanatic but I think Lego did an outstanding job and had to have it.
Really good value for the money and kept me busy and helped to relax
Loved building the rocket and it is very big thinking about ordering another.
Several hours of fun, wonderful instructions. I loved making this!
This is a brilliant lego build. Price seems a bit top heavy but for what you get it’s worth every penny. The resulting model is huge and it looks great when complete – it doesn’t look like lego it looks like a “proper” model. Best lego ever? Buy it and make your own mind up. But I think it probably is.
This is a very well made model. The instructions are clear and you build the rocket in 12 sections each with a separate bag of Lego. A bit pricey but if you are enthusiastic about space travel and the moon landings then a model of the Saturn V is a very nice thing to make and have. Included is a small lunar site model and a spashdown model.
This thing is amazing. First, it weighs a ton, second, it’s huge, third, and my only real bugbear is that sometimes the instructions are a little vague and you have to pay super close attention to the orientation of the pieces you are attaching to each other (even then I sometimes had to dig up a Youtube tutorial to see what they were doing).
It took about four days doing a bit at a time. Now if only I had the money/space for the Discovery Shuttle.
What I like about the Lego Ideas series is that, uniquely, the logos and decals are printed onto the bricks – no stick-on decals here. Having seen an original Saturn Rocket, the scale of this model does justice to it and features plenty of detail. The build also contains a lot of internal detail and the finished rocket is truly impressive. If I had a criticism it’s that some parts of the build are a bit repetitive but overall this is, without doubt, one of Lego’s finest kits and represents good value too.
The build is a masterpiece for all Lego lovers. Fun to build with easy to follow instructions
I hadn’t done anything like this for 30 odd years, and found the experience fun and challenging at times. Very impressed with how it came out. Being a bit of a space nerd I love how you can seperate the stages to explain how the Saturn V worked.
The Saturn V rocket, which took the astronaut the moon, is an amazing human achievement. The Lego model at just over a metre tall is a great build to consider and reflect on that achievement. Built to the same scale as the Lego international space station it gives a real insight into the size of the rocket, as does the size of the command module compared to the booster rockets needed to achieve space flight. If you’ve not been lucky enough to visit Cape Canaveral then this will give you a small insight into the scale of the project.
Good value for money for a set this big. Would prefer the display stands to be black and not blue to match the ISS and Discovery sets, but overall good
looks great and hours of fun, each Lego is always brilliant.
A wonderful end product from a quite complicated build. Absolutely loved it.
If I could give it more stars I would packaged absolutely perfectly arrived fast and with no damage at all price was defiantly worth it great value for money and an absolutely brilliant product 100% Reccomend
Ce set est parfait, il y a beaucoup de pices, le montage dure longtemps mais franchement pour ma part cela ne me drange pas du tout, je prfre mme cela. Ce que j’aime surtout, c’est le fait qu’ils ont voulu dtailler l’intrieur, ils ne se sont pas contents juste de mettre des gros blocs empiler, ils ont voulu tre fidle la fuse et au mcanisme de fonctionnement, et aussi le petit clin d’il avec le nombre de pice (1 969) est vraiment sympa.
Du coup j’en ai achet une deuxime afin de mettre en place une dcoration, et puis avec l’ISS et la navette spatiale (que je possde dj), a fera une belle petite collection spatiale 🙂
Je recommande ce set ceux qui aiment bien les longs & prcis montages et aussi ceux qui aiment l’astronomie 🙂
Loved putting this together, looks great on my mantlepiece. Ordered and recieved within days. Happy customer here!
Whats not to love about Lego? This is a belter, great kit, great looking and great fu
I also enjoyed that the different sections were able to come apart just like the stages of the actual rocket. Finally, I liked the small custom Astronauts, and the details on the Moon Lander and Command Module.
One very small complaint. One piece was missing (I suspect that another piece of equal weight was included in the pack by mistake). This meant that I was unable to connect a part of the exterior properly. This was a first for me (with decades of Lego experience) and I made sure I opened the bag and decanted the contents properly. However after rechecking everything (and the floor) I went on the Lego Website who then sent me out a replacement piece.
All in all, very fun and I would definitely recommend
A really interesting build to this model, take your time building each individual section and when they all fit together you have a very impressive model, would enhance any home
Nothing really prepares you for just how impressive this model is when its completed and standing (very) tall.
A truly fantastic bit of Lego that will delight anyone who has an interest in the Apollo programme.
Get them while you can.
This is a very engaging build and kept us entertained for some time.
I have removed a star from the rating because the instructions are printed on black paper which makes them difficult to follow in some steps. Have fed this to Lego directly and they have recently announced they are discontinuing the use of black paper for instructions based on customer feedback.
Great Lego set. Looks impressive, just the box! The Lego is impressive when built and about 1m high when all together. Only a shame Lego abandoned the Apollo Launch Pad set to go with it. Great supplier, quickly delivered!
As all lego usually is, high quality but expensive and overpriced. Amazon sell at the same price as the Lego online store and I haven’t found this cheaper (new) elsewhere. However, the price is my only gripe. It comes with a really nice glossy booklet which explains all about the Apollo programme, the Saturn V rocket, the mission to land on the Moon, and the fan designers who came up with it. I was able to use this to educate my 6yr old, which was a catalyst for excitement when they helped to build it. The instructions are thorough enough for children though I reccommend supervision as there are some symetrical diffrences occasionally.
The rocket itself is sturdy enough though should be treated as a model, I don’t think it would last long as a toy. It’s size is impressive and inners were complex enough for an adult to enjoy building. The display stands are simple but look great in adding to the showpiece. There is also the landing module and command module as additions included.
Overall a great model, if your a lego fan, or space geek its worth the cost. If you just think it’s cool and you don’t mind the price then go for it. There’s little to be dissapointed about, it’s just expensive.
Just love this. Treated myself for a significant birthday and no regrets at all.
A good build, some parts was tricky to put together, as some parts feel off
Bought this for my son’s Christmas. He loved it (he had dropped big hints that he wanted it). It’s now displayed in our living room along with the booklet. Looks grea
Bought it for my boyfriend as a Valentine’s Day Gift as it was a model of his favourite rocket. Amazing quality and value for money, about 1m high in height and very thick and sturdy! He’s 22 and managed to build it alone in about 5 and a half hours. Arrived well and earlier than expected, also anyone in the UK wondering – no tax or import fees as it’s now coming from the EU! Looks amazing and very cool, made spending 100 on lego at the big age of 20 worth the while!
Obviously based on the original Saturn V rocket – it very cleverly uses 1969 bricks in order to build, the same number as the first year man stepped onto the moon.
It is impressively large, standing over a metre tall, and it can be displayed in a vertical, or horizontal (with included Lego stands). The use of to scale micro figures also gives a sense of how massive the actual rocket really was!
I absolutely loved this build, and found it incredibly interesting as some rather odd techniques were used to make the cylindrical shape. What was also nice was the distinct lack of stickers – and the actual printed bricks!
The rocket itself ‘splits’ into its separate launch stages, so it can be displayed as 5 individual models (3 stages of the rocket, lunar lander & returned capsule). This can prove as an educational tool as well – which the manual itself provides, including a nice 2 page spread highlighting Saturn V’s launch procedures and what happens in order for it to reach the moon.
Perhaps my favourite set, and I’m so glad that it was reissued. If you are a fan of Lego this set deserves to be in your collection! If you are a fan of space as well – this could possibly be the crown jewel in your collection.
A really great Lego set, probably one of the best value for money sets around.
Fun to put together and a great educational piece.
Every Lego enthusiast should buy one.
Great build , took 2 weekends to build with my son who loves it and great detail in the booklet about the Saturn rocket.
I have never has so much fun with my pants on.
It was challenging and fan to assemble
With Good details for Lego
Saturn V is an amazing rocket. My grandson had lots of fun with it. Only thing he is autistic and smashed it all up agai
My son loves this lego. Has a lot of pieces and kept him occupied for a while.
Possible future collectors item as the old Saturn 5 (21309) is fetching good money on the marketplace (no names mentioned)
This thing really is a meter tall. It’s a bit tricky in parts so definitely one for older kids but it is an absolutely awesome build and final result. One of, if not the best, Lego sets we have and we have a few!!!
It is a good building experience, and model is really detailed. It worths the money.
My grandson put this together in 2 days. 9 years old and loves it.
Absolutely brilliant set!, well worth getting it, very sterdy, well designed and looks amazing, also features each stage of the Apollo mission, lego has done it again, also delivered right on time.
Came quickly bought as present looks good made up my grandson enjoyed building it and it is a good item for his collectio
Yeah, it is worth the money. I enjoyed every single minute assembling this. No it’s always on display behind me when I’m on a zoom call 😀
A lovely model to make and looks great. Only pity is that much of the work is unseen in the final model.
Best to shop around for best price.
his was fun to build but once assembled i found that it is very easily broken when you move it about. apart from this i was really pleased with the value for money that this set gave me.
Great Lego rocket both my grandchildren are in the process of building it They wanted a Lego space rocket that was more complicated so they love this they are aged 12 and 15 Although have to say this was in my opinion overpriced but then it’sLego !
Absolutely perfect every thing great took me three days to build but worth the money and the time
Brought this for son (24yrs). He loved it, kept him busy all day. Instructions surprisingly clear (its a whole book) and bits are packaged in separate sections. I was very reluctant to buy this as expensive but actually its brilliant and looks great.
My son was so disappointed when this was retired first time around as we had just missed getting it for his birthday.
He is 9 and it took him about a week to build it so kept him busy for a while.
Great detail and a lot of thought clearly went into the design. Even the parts of the rocket that are covered in panels try to recreate in Lego what would really be there in the real thing. At some point I hope to be allowed to play with it….
This was exceptional. My 12 year old spent chunks of time every day over the Christmas hols until it was built. He already knew a good amount about space travel but this gave him hands on fun. It’s robust and separates into components easily. We watched Apollo 13 once constructed and he took great delight demonstrating the different stages of the mission using it. Not sure where we will display it now!
Awesome!! Words of my son when fully built. Took my 13 year old son, just over a day to fully build this magnificent piece of Lego. Well worth the money.
Lovely model that gets more and more impressive the more it is assembled.
This Lego set is more like a model construction kit when finished. Take your time on the build, and reflect on each stage that you complete of this, the most powerful rocket the world has ever seen. A very rewarding 3 days to build 1,969 pieces into a real educational and collectable Lego Set.
I thoroughly enjoyed constructing this kit and the end result is a fantastic and highly detailed model of the Saturn V. The instructions are simple to follow and the quality of the parts is brilliant. I am absolutely over the moon with this kit!
The rocket itself uses some build techniques that were new to me and highly effective. I was worried in the early stages as it does look as though the exterior is made from tall curved pieces but these are merely internal structure and the outside uses tiling to create the heat panel effect. ALL of the detailing is via pre-printed bricks so NO stickers which is definitely a bonus.
Build Time on this was extended because I got over confident and did not read the instructions properly so had issues connecting Stage Two in to Stage One and it took me a while to realise I had a 1×4 out of place which was why they would not connect. The connections are really secure and yet allow you to break the rocket apart easily should you wish to display it in stages rather than one huge rocket. When I say huge, I mean HUGE. Yes, the decription tells you it is just under 39.5 inches tall but somehow until you have built it the true size just doesn’t compute. There are 3 “braces” included in the build so you can display it on it’s side – good job too as that is pretty my only option at the moment.
As a final touch can we just talk about the piece count? 1969 – just how cool a detail is that!
Number Of Pieces: 1969
Approximate Price Per Piece: 0.06
Build Time: 5.5 Hours
Brilliant item, brilliant post, all round fab item and servicem
Another Lego top toy with amazing attention to detail in the design of this product! This kept my son very busy and happy for quite a few days now all i need is more space so i can display it!
This is the kind of set ups be building more of… one that triggers the imagination and bring the child out in us. It was fun to build and looks even more amazing on the shelf. My eyes still after building over a year ago glance over at it frequently. Sits next to my Yoda build… another fun build to make.
And here’s full and complete huge rocket who’s now waiting for proper acrylic display and LED. Now we are on the open space sky with huge military project’s landing on the Moon and maybe Mars by Artemis or Blue Origin.
