But, now let's talk about the main plate, the Lego Set. Altough I was a little bit concerned about the "free frustration package" my product arrived in excelent condition with the original Lego box as well (I was not sure how basic or generic the frustration free option was and I didn't see any detailed information here) but to my surprise and happiness when I opened the box there it was, in all its glory the original box from Lego with the Shuttlle design.
Great quality and I must say my package didn't have any missing pieces, in fact there were some small ones extra (look for the sorting process and packaging of Lego sets on YT, very impressive). 17 plastic bags with all the pieces ordered by construction module. (There are 2 bags labeled "2" with all the necesary parts just in case you may think there are several parts missings as I tought in the beginning)
Step by step instructions very easy to follow. I spent around 3 and half nights assembling it (working adult here) and it was very fun process, discovering all the details and easter eggs.
I would definetly recommend it!
The building experience so far has been a dream. There are definitely some small pieces that require a bit of dexterity to fit, but the average person shouldn't have too much issue with that. They split the set into 17 numbered bags with an 18th, un-numbered bag of several large pieces, and you build in order of the bags. The instruction manual is one giant, 320+ page manual and is fairly easy to read and follow, although there were a couple of steps that I had to really pause and double-take, and then check my work. This is a time-intensive set at just shy of 2400 pieces, but I would not describe the process as monotonous. In fact, with each section, I grow only more and more impressed at the design aptitude of the lego design team, and I could definitely say the design aspect of this set is truly inspiring.
As I write this review, I am just shy of halfway into the build. Unforunately, I have had to stop to reach out to Lego on their website because the entirety of bag 8 was missing from my box. I am not docking LEGO points for this because I completely understand that this kind of thing happens and it doesn't take away from my enjoyment of this set so far, but I did want to make a note of that. I have reached out to lego at lego.com/service to get the situation resolved, and will be updating my review once I hear back/it gets resolved. Since this is a brand new set I bought, I shouldn't have any issues that I can think of, but I did notice that they mention that replacements could take 7-10 business days to ship, so be aware of that if you need replacement parts.
All in all, with that caveat aside, I can wholeheartedly recommend this LEGO set. Who is this set for? In my opinion, this set is for anyone who is a fan of NASA, space travel history, and is a moderately experienced builder with the time and desk space to put this together. Keep in mind the shuttle itself is decently sized - while definitely dwarfed by the likes of the Star Wars UCS spaceships, it still takes a respectable portion of my dining room table to construct, and will take a good portion of a shelf on my bookshelf al on its own. The Hubble Telescope that comes with it is also no slouch - you can fit it in the cargo bay with the panel arrays removed, But I would say that it takes up a good 7-8 inches in length and a very similar size tall.
So yes. If you like Space Shuttles, get this set. Just check to make sure you have all your bags, numbered 1-17 with an 18th un-numbered bag. And if you are missing a bag like I am, reach out to Lego at lego.com/service.

My only complaint about the set is that the display stand for the Hubble is completely useless, there is no realistic way to balance it. We'll need to source a plate or something to make the base larger.
Overall, this is a great piece to accompany the Apollo Saturn V rocket we build together a few years ago. Highly recommend.
