To others: MSRP is $49.99 from LEGO. This not truly 40% savings; it's a 20% savings.
This set was a really disappointing build. One of the very few IDEAS sets I do not recommend and I have them all.

Somehow, I doubt this is the most overpriced Lego set- though it certainly feels like it.

Quote from Beach__House :
Worst AFOL set of 2023 nominee. Horrible build they break it up into 4 instruction books so friends and family can partake in the misery. The element choices are subpar especially the omission of 1x1 black bricks for the ones with holes, oh and the Technic 1x12 beams X 8 are ridiculous to apply. The instructions even with color guidelines are not easy to follow due to printing and at the END of the rocket launch subset they give you 3 alternative constellation builds from the default Big Dipper that would require you to breakdown half the build. Hopefully they display nice on the wall the reason I bought them. The reviews are great on this set but I would avoid it at all cost, well 50% off would be nice, to build.

The Insects set is amazing with 3 unique builds that display excellently.
Huh. I found the build okay myself. A little repetitive but it was nice to be able to split it over 4 days and have a completed picture after each one. The instructions have color references, which made it pretty easy to use the right color. With so few pieces, each picture is done in half an hour, limiting any frustration.

I don't care about Star Wars or space sets generally, but I liked the aesthetic of this space themed set. It's a set you can display tastefully in an area that gets guests without looking like a weirdo Smilie

I have this set and although it's a little pricey (IMO) for what it is, I'm happy with it. Being someone who is fascinated by cold war relics, It has a Soviet space propaganda vibe to it which I appreciate.
