The challenges are endless, from the point of purchase to the finished product itself.
Can you actually afford a big LEGO set?
Can your patience handle the job of constructing it?
Can you tell all the tiny bits apart?
Can you resist a snooze on the sofa for long enough to finish the job?
On top of that, theres an electronic element and lots of moving parts.
Getting this baby to roll, twist, and excavate like its supposed to is no easy task.
It also takes no less than 12 batteries to get the thing moving.
Again, moving pieces are involved as well as batteries.
The Emperor would be proud.
It comes with a 16+ age tag, and isnt for the feint of heart.
And since its been discontinued for quite a while, its also impossibly expensive.
This is one for the only the most die hardStar Warsfans.
Tower Bridge
This LEGO Creator incarnation of Londons Tower Bridge is an absolute beauty.
But wouldnt a shuttle like this look lovely on your shelf?
Ghostbusters HQ
Holy crap, is this ones lovely.
And although it might look fairly simple from this angle, its actually a properly challenging kit.
Once its built, though, there are hours of fun to be had.
Its like a ghoulish dolls house!
Which is just what you were looking for, right?
Ultimate Millennium Falcon
The devils in the detail with this one.
To build a Millennium Falcon this textured and detailed, you have to piece together 5,197 bricks.
Recreating this iconic French landmark in LEGO form takes 3,428 bricks.
Most of them are titchy and gray.
Its a careful balancing act to get them all together without knocking the whole thing over, as well.
This kit is aimed at ages 16 and up, and its a very precise and challenging project.
Best of luck to anyone out there attempting it!
None of them, sadly, are Phil Coulson.
Motorized AT-AT
Man, I really love this one.
Practical fun meets gorgeous design, and the result is a proper geeky treat.
This Sydney Opera House build measures up at 2,989 pieces.
And given the thinner design of this one, you could argue that its even more difficult to build.
Its designed for expert builders, and it measures up at 41cm tall by 51cm wide.
Sandcrawler
Utinni!!
It has ramps, cranes and compartments that move, and it rolls around on tracks.
And the plethora of Minifigures and droids add an extra layer of fun.
And it plays music while it does.
Its intended for aged 16 and up, and it would look great in any LEGO collection.
Fun fact: It comes with an ultra rare extra large baseplate.
What more motivation do you need?
Once youve constructed this technological terror, youll want to put it in pride of place.
Thankfully, it comes with a little stand to let you do just that.
