Herky Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) LEGO Architecture 2014 Set News Picture courtesy Promo Bricks. Thanks Herky for the news. 21020 Trevi Fountain Price: ?? Parts: ?? Original Post Follows Have been following the 2013 thread and figured we needed a 2014 thread to go along with the others...from what I keep hearing the Marina Bay Sands and Eiffel Tower will be out, but have not seen or heard a date on those two. Not sure if there are other rumored sets yet or not...would love to see what others have heard. Edited February 3, 2014 by Rufus Information Added Quote
TomLego Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) Edited....I fell for the April Fools joke Would be nice to work for the NSA, we could find out EVERYTHING we wanted to know about Lego's future plans. :-) Edited September 9, 2013 by TomLego Quote
Herky Posted September 12, 2013 Author Posted September 12, 2013 Tom, not understanding what you mean on the April Fool's joke, did I miss something? Are Marina Bay Sands and Eiffel not coming out? I saw someone in another thread say Trevi Fountain as well. Quote
just2good Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Tom, not understanding what you mean on the April Fool's joke, did I miss something? Are Marina Bay Sands and Eiffel not coming out? I saw someone in another thread say Trevi Fountain as well. He probably said something about that April Fools joke on Brickset about there being a new TV communication tower (?) achitecture set.

Herky Posted September 12, 2013 Author Posted September 12, 2013 aha, ok, I missed that, was it the CN Tower in Toronto? I have been searching around on other sites and really the Architecture line seems to be ignored...they have the Maersk Container ship, the new Parisian Restaurant, the upcoming Princess line, the new Friends, etc all on Brickipedia (http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/2014) which seemed to be the most complete list of 2014 to date, but no architecture.

Off the wall Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 News of the Marina Bay Sands 21021 is all over the Internet if you google it. Looks like a winner. Definitely for those of us who like the non traditional look. Quote
Meiko Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Has this been seen yet? [image] -Sci That looks awesome! Can't wait to get that one. Quote
Rick Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Apparently the image surfaced in Le Bon Marché's Christmas toy catalogue. They should have snuck in three more pieces to make the piece count equal to the height of the tower in metres. Quote
Redhead1982 Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 It looks sweet. It's instantly recognizable, and looks pretty simply built, considering its shape which is not so easy to capture with bricks. So is the due date for this little Eiffel known? Quote

So is the due date for this little Eiffel known? According to the source of the news, it's January 2014. I have updated the FP post to reflect this. Quote
BeKindRewind Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 It's about time they came out with the Eiffel Tower! I think this is the best it could look made out of Lego. Bravo to the designers. Though it looks like there is a support rod down the middle which also isn't in the original. The only gripe I have is the color. Wouldn't a color like dark tan be more accurate? I'm just wondering why all of the architecture line has to be grey or tan. That being said, I will snatch this one up as soon as it's available. Quote
lego2lego Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 It's about time they came out with the Eiffel Tower! I think this is the best it could look made out of Lego. Not even close... Model by Spencer Rezkalla. However, it is a very nice model indeed. Quote

They should have snuck in three more pieces to make the piece count equal to the height of the tower in meters. Seems like a slight MOD could add the 3 pieces. I know I would try it. Andy D Quote
BeKindRewind Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Not even close... I should probably have said "it's the best they could do in the typical architecture size." Yes, there are some amazing larger representations out there. Even the original 10181, while blocky, still gives a better overall curve to the structure. But for its size...nicely done. Quote
TheLegoDr Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Spencer's is a great creation. I've thought about building that version, until I heard of the architecture set. I might still end up building it.. It looks good for the size. Some of the shape isn't what I would picture in my head, but I can understand why they used the pieces they did. I'm sure I'll pick up at least one for my daughter since she loves the Eiffel Tower, and maybe one for me. Thanks for sharing. Quote
Junpei Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 It looks pretty good for the scale! I wonder why they don't just make the flex axles in dark grey, maybe they have a surplus of the metallic silver ones? The shape is very well captured. Quote
Herky Posted October 28, 2013 Author Posted October 28, 2013 Thanks for posting the pic, a great addition for the line based on its size, and I have seen the marina bay sands one as well, can't find a decent pic though, they are all very small. Hopefully a good year for the Architecture line in 2014 Quote
Legonardo Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 They should have snuck in three more pieces to make the piece count equal to the height of the tower in metres. spare parts? Quote
fan Posted October 30, 2013 Posted October 30, 2013 Hi folks, just to inform you, that at the "bon marché" you can pre-order this set from 1st of november and it is availaible there from 1st of december. Every where else from 1st january. Beneigh this I made for them the reproduction of this set in 3meters high out of 40.000 pieces. So come and get there to see it. The PR is starting on 1st of november and for this reason I can't post any images. greetings from France Quote
rollermonkey Posted November 1, 2013 Posted November 1, 2013 (edited) If Eiffel is up next, then it should be 21019, and if Marina Bay Sands is 21021 based on the leaked images... What have we not heard anything about that will become 21020? Maybe there's been another Eames House type problem? Edited November 1, 2013 by rollermonkey Quote
AdrianB2014 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 TLG has published the instruction booklet for the 21021 Marina Bay Sands. Check it out here: http://cache.lego.com/bigdownloads/buildinginstructions/6081978.pdf Quote

AdrianB2014 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 This set has 602 pieces, by my count. @WhiteFang - do you have any info about the price? Quote
