🏷️ 21340-1🎨 LEGO Ideas and CUUSOO📅 2023🧱 690 partsIntermediate

LEGO Ideas Tales of the Space Age (21340-1) presents four 3D postcards, drawing inspiration from 1980s sci-fi myths, films, books, and posters. This 690-piece collection includes brick-built depictions of an observatory observing comets, a moon base with a lunar eclipse, a shuttle launching through space, and a black hole. Each postcard displays minimalist scenes, using SNOT techniques for visual depth, and comes with individual building instructions. The models connect for a cohesive display arrangement, or stand alone on a shelf or mount on a wall. The finished connected piece measures approximately 32 cm across, forming a panoramic space exploration tribute.
