REVIEW: 40595 Tribute to Galileo Galilei

[Pchan1983]

Here is my review on LEGO Ideas 40595 Tribute to Galileo Galilei:

THE GOOD:

• A good small desktop or shelf display.
• Love the solar system action feature.
• Some nice furniture builds.
• Reasonably lower threshold GWP compared to some released this year.

THE NOT SO GOOD:

• The top of the wall can be a bit more polished.

With double insiders points running earlier in October & a low threshold, managed to get his with my PAB order.  I have low expectation on this but it contains some nice surprises. Firstly, I enjoyed building the base and it has a lot more area than I expected.  With some very detailed furnitures build, it was fun!  Despite Galileo minifigure does not really strike you as Galileo, the action feature of the solar system made up for it.  It works so well, I'm now very interested in building one with all 9 planets!  One side of the wall also has a nice exterior look, however the top of the wall can be a bit bland, and I believe would make this even a better desktop display if it is more polished.  Anyway, considering the threshold of this, this set is pretty good.  If you still able to get your hands onto one, I would definitely recommend this.
