LEGO will turn 90 years old in the summer of 2022 and, in all that time, it has been surpassing itself since its invention of some curious pieces of wood that could be fitted together. Today, some sets are true works of architecture. If you want to know which ones will require the most hours of dedication, we show you the 10 largest LEGOs in the world, which contain the largest number of pieces . As you will see, there is everything and, curiously, it seems that LEGO itself has difficulty counting.
LEGOs are the consolation of those of us who always wanted to build ships and castles, but did not attend much in class. And for those of us who are also a bit obsessive, there are sets with thousands and thousands of pieces, which can keep us entertained for days.
Today you will know which are the 10 largest LEGOs in history, which have more pieces and, curiously, if you look for that information on the LEGO website, it does not give it correctly .
We are not going to tell you that we know more than LEGO, but, apparently they have forgotten some of their own sets when counting. One of them, very from here, by the way.
We start with him.
10. The LEGO Camp Nou, 5509 pieces
On the official LEGO website they give information about the boxes that contain more pieces, but, curiously, they have forgotten some of the largest. One of them is the Camp Nou .
This set, with the number 10284, has 5509 pieces and is difficult to find in Spain . Its price on the official website is about $ 350 and faithfully reproduces the Barcelona field, with a height of 20 centimeters and a length of half a meter.
9. Diagon Alley from Harry Potter, 5544 pieces
This wizarding world shopping street supplied Hogwarts students and has everything. Well hidden from Muggles , you can reproduce it in this huge set, numbered 75798.
With 14 figures included and a multitude of details, the truth is that it is very difficult to find, since it was sold out and LEGO has not reissued it for now.
8. The NINJAGO city gardens, 5685 pieces
With part number 71741, 5685 pieces and 19 minifigures, NINJAGO City Gardens appear.
This is a LEGO theme set in a world of ninja adventures , with fantasy elements. Martial arts, dragons and action, for which LEGO would also make a computer animation series that ran for 14 seasons and 180 episodes.
The set can be found for a price around 300 euros .
7. Taj Mahal, Creator Expert version, 5923 pieces
The legendary Indian monument built for love also comes to LEGO for an equally impressive work. As a curiosity, this set has two reference numbers, 10189 and 10256 .
The second is a reissue of the first and only a separating piece differentiates them. It can still be found at the time of writing this, but, if it interests you, and you have more than 450 euros, you should hurry.
There are not many left in the store and it is an officially retired product , so when it is finished, it is finished.
6. Hogwarts Castle from Harry Potter, 6020 pieces
Harry Potter and LEGO have a long common history. Also a great story, because this set already exceeds 6000 pieces and brings 4 minifigures and 27 microfigures that can fit in the castle.
Its set number is 71043 and it is important not to confuse it with others, such as 76389 , which is that of the Chamber of Secrets. It can mislead you if you are not very into Harry Potter.
It can still be found, but it is quite difficult . In the official store it is temporarily out of stock at the time of writing this, although it seems that they will be back in stock.
5. The AT-AT Walker from Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, 6785 pieces
It was inevitable that Star Wars would appear and it does so with heavy artillery. The legendary 4-legged walkers from The Empire Strikes Back conquer the middle of the table with a work of art measuring almost 62 centimeters high and 70 long.
The vehicle can be opened and will fit up to 40 minifigures. The set number is 75313 and it comes with 9 minifigures. Important not to be confused with other AT-ATs, such as the smaller 75288 set.
They are easy to differentiate because this one is worth 800 euros in the official store and the other about 130 euros.
4. The Millennium Falcon Ultimate Collector Set, 7581 pieces
Next to nothing, Han Solo’s legendary junk ship has several incarnations in LEGO form. This is serial number 75192 and it is almost 85 centimeters long.
In 2007, they released a previous version, also of the UCS series, but with 5197 pieces, with reference number 10179 and already retired. The one that we are discussing now is larger and more detailed, it reproduces the Falcon from the new trilogy and, although it is still in force, it is difficult to find.
That and that exceeds 800 euros …
3. The Colosseum in Rome, 9036 pieces
We started to enter truly professional territory, jumping 1,500 pieces from fourth place.
The Colosseum in Rome is reproduced in a set of about 60 centimeters once assembled, with very faithful details, including various shades of stone to represent the different wear of the different parts of the monument. Her set number is 10276.
It is difficult to find , since there is no stock in the store and quantities of more than 850 euros are requested second-hand.
2. The Titanic, Creator Expert version, 9090 pieces
Another difficult piece to locate today. With serial number 10294 comes the legendary Titanic that will occupy 1 meter and 35 centimeters in length .
It has an incredible level of detail inside and it brings lifeboats, but not many, like the original. We are already talking about the fact that, to capture this specimen, you have to pay more than 1,000 euros .
1. The LEGO world map, 11695 pieces
LEGO has broken its own record during the summer of 2021 with a world map in artistic format , composed of 11695 pieces and that you can use to decorate any part of the house with taste.
This world map is the largest LEGO set in history in terms of number of pieces. The truth is that, as it is recent, there is still stock and you can find it around 300 euros.
As you can see, LEGO dares to even build the entire world. So, if you are a fan and want real challenges, any of these 10 biggest LEGOs out there will have you hooked for days and days.
