Description
LEGO NASA Apollo Saturn V is the perfect model rocket to both display and role play with. Packed with authentic details, it features 3 removable rocket stages (first, s-ii second, and s-ivb third) a launch escape system, a command and service module along with the Lunar Lander and Lunar Orbiter to recreate a rocket launch and splashdown landing. There are also 2 new-for-june-2017 Astronaut minifigures and 1 microfigure for role-play recreations of the Moon landings. This building toy includes an informational booklet about the manned Apollo missions and the fan designers who created this educational LEGO Ideas set. Builders have the option to horizontally display the Saturn V model with the 3 stands.
Information
Our SmartKidsPlanet initiative began in 2017 when 3 geeky and dedicated parents saw a gap in the children’s toys and games market. An opportunity was spotted while we struggled to find toys and games for our kids which enriched their minds and guided them toward science, art, math and construction. The trio then knew that their paths were set, establishing an online shop with a comprehensive range of intelligent toys for babies, children and young teenagers.
With offices based in California, our SmartKidsPlanet team enjoys a daily growth in our presence within the children’s educational toys market. We love our new place in life, and we love helping young minds with their growth and skill development, all while having as much fun as possible.

Received the kit, prompted some drooling (as required), and began building! Only took a couple hours, but I savored every second! Now stands proud next to my Revell 1:144 Saturn V and LEGO Discovery!
I built this for a time lapse video for the 50th anniversary. When I found out there are no stickers in this set and all the bricks are printed, I was over the moon. Be careful and follow the instructions. If you space and put a piece in the wrong place, it can be an issue later on. It may be one small step for you, but its one giant leap back in the instructions to find your mistake. This thing is kind of heavy, so make sure your arm's strong when you pick it up. I know you've heard the Buzz about this set. It's for a reason.
Nine year old chose this after studying space and the Saturn V in particular. He built 90% of it on his own because my husband couldnt handle not participating a little. It was very challenging to build, but he is so proud of himself for completing it. He is so excited to show anyone and everyone that comes to visit.
There is such great detail in this project. It breaks apart into the different sections, and they are so detailed inside as well as out. Its a pricey piece, but its completely worth it.
First Lego kit I've done since I was a kid. This set was fun to put together with my daughter and is a great, accurate model as well.
This set is stunning. Build took me around 3 hours, and is not overly complicated. Seeing this set come together is one of the more exciting Lego builds that I've ever done. As you get close to the finish, the scale of this is incredible. At 39" tall, it looks beautiful displayed upright or horizontally, and feels quite sturdy.
You can pull apart the separate stages and put the lander inside as well. It's impressive how accurately this simulates how the real thing worked.
Oh and the astronaut minifigs are TINY. Like smaller than a single 1x1 brick. Once you see their scale next to the rocket, it's even more amazing that NASA pulled this off back in the day with less computing power than we all carry around in our pockets every day.
