LEGO enthusiasts are in for a treat as an upcoming set, the 10341 Artemis Space Launch System, has been spotted at the Taipei airport ahead of its official release. This impressive 3,601-piece set is set to become the latest addition to LEGO's NASA collection, surpassing previous sets in terms of size and detail.
A Spectacular Display Model
The LEGO Artemis Space Launch System is a sight to behold, featuring the iconic Artemis I Rocket and its companion launchpad. The set's intricate design and sheer size make it a standout display piece for space enthusiasts and LEGO collectors alike.
While details are limited, the box image reveals a massive support structure for launching the Artemis 1, complete with a retracting bridge and other features. The set primarily focuses on the exterior display, rather than furnished control rooms or cockpits.
Release Date and Pricing
The set is expected to launch on May 15, with an official reveal from the LEGO Group in the coming days. It will be priced at $259.99, which is reasonable considering the set's piece count and scale.
Speculation about the set's price before the official announcement ranged from $299 to £279, based on the piece count and previous NASA sets.
Excitement Builds Among LEGO and Space Enthusiasts
The last time LEGO released a NASA set was in 2021 with the 2,300-piece Space Shuttle Discovery, which received high praise from fans. The Artemis Space Launch System is expected to generate similar excitement, as it offers a unique and detailed building experience.
LEGO's collaboration with NASA continues to produce sets that inspire and educate, allowing builders to explore the wonders of space through the joy of building.
