Retailer reviews
Summarized retailer review data when available.
Is very bad. I reported my complaint, but they said that connecting it would then mean you wouldn't hear anything anymore.
I find it a very beautiful and impressive building to build, but I finished it in just 2 days. However, the resemblance to the Empire State Building is beautifully recreated, a clever piece of architecture.
Beautiful model, very realistic. The best souvenir if you've been standing in front of the Empire State Building.
Nice building, although the base is the most interesting part, then it becomes a bit repetitive.
It's fun to put together. You'll be finished with it quickly. There are a lot of the same bricks. Not difficult. The description is very clear. Even a 8-year-old child will be able to do it. The final result is good.
We visited it during our honeymoon, went all the way up, it was fun, and this tower also fits in well. However, there are a lot of the same pieces, it's quite simple, and it would have been even more fun if the core was transparent or hollow so that lights could be added. It would also look very nice in the dark.
