Box was crushed so not for collectors. All pieces present as well as instructions/stickers. Built this while quarantined with covid. So much fun, easy to follow and perfectly complex. Moving ailerons, deploying landing gear and and intricate hubble telescope make this set amazing! Got it for msrp of $200 instead of being gouged by Amazon. Thanks Best Buy.

I tried purchasing twice, and the box arrived open and was destroyed both times. Best Buy support graciously mentioned that they have a great return policy and will exchange it at the store lol. Well within the return period, I'm glad they're willing to take back something they did not attempt to protect during shipment given they stick an address label to the box and ship out as is. Poor service chatted twice with customer service, and no regard or interest in delivering items without customer damage. I need to use up my rewards and stop shopping at Best Buy I guess.

First one arrived in a 'box' that was completely destroyed but wrapped in Best Buy plastic wrap. Second one also arrived badly damaged and Best Buy said they cannot do anything about it. Badly done--I won't be shopping at Best Buy again.

sent me to in horrible condition with packing tape closing the opening of the box and sharpie written on it. the best part was there was already a shipping label on the box from when someone else tried to return it. I've now spent three weeks trying to get a refund even though it was already shipped back. just today they sent the gift card to someone else's email address. I've spent just under 8 hours on calls with agents that are constantly contradicting themselves and saying that the other agents were just misinformed when they're clearly just lying to me.

Best space themed Lego set. Super fun to build and it’s a great size. Comes with a Hubble Telescope build which makes it almost like two sets in one. Hurry up an buy it before it is discontinued.

If you’re a fan of spacecraft and Lego, this set is a no-brainer. Very well thought out assembly and and very accurate shapes. My only criticism would be that I would like the base of the shuttle to have a larger footprint as it made me very nervous displaying it on a higher or narrow shelf; although the model is very well balanced on the stand. Also would like the stand for the Hubble to attach more strongly since it easily drops off if you don’t hold it too while moving the satellite. Otherwise, this set it “Mary Poppins”: practically perfect in every way.

A gift sent directly to Michael in a dented, taped together box. We are hopeful that there are no missing parts. My rating and recommendation are mere guesses, since I was not the recipient.

Great set. It was a fun build that looks great in my home office. It is the perfect gift for a space nerd. The ailerons move by twisting one of the engine burners. The gear pops out when you push on a certain part of the shuttle. The bay doors open up to show the inside. The Hubble makes a good display piece on its own.

This Lego set is incredible. I love the level of detail of the shuttle as well as the Hubble Space Telescope. Brings back memories when I watch the maiden voyage of the shuttle Atlantis on TV with my classmates.
I was missing a piece for the front right side of the shuttle but Lego.com made it super easy to order a new one. I basically enter the Lego set number and select which piece I was missing. Within 3 to 4 days I received the missing piece free of charge. Great Customer service from Lego.
The overall sturdiness of the set is great. Overall I enjoyed putting together this set with my son.

It was a birthday present that went over very well. It's a more complicated build than others, but the end product is a very cool, large display piece.

This is a very nice Lego set. I have been wanting it for a while and found it on sale at Best Buy. I was happy with the purchase and would recommend the set to anyone who loves Lego and space travel. The box was in pretty good shape, which is rare for Best Buy, so I am happy.

The Shuttle is an awesome LEGO set! Not only is the finished product awesome, but the build itself is a ton of fun! LEGO has really knocked it out of the park with their NASA line, as all of them are amazing.

I bought the Space Shuttle LEGO set for my husband, and he absolutely loved it! He was so excited that he ended up finishing the entire set in one night. The design is detailed and realistic, making it a great challenge and a lot of fun to build. If you’re looking for a gift for a LEGO enthusiast, this set is a winner!
