From tall buildings and castles to rockets and more..
In a previous blogpost I made a list of the Top 10 BIGGEST LEGO sets ever made, based on the number of pieces the sets contains. But that doesn’t mean that they are the tallest too. That is a privilege set aside for some Skyscraping buildings, Disney Castles, Dark Towers and more. Lets have a look at the TOP 10 TALLEST LEGO sets ever made, based on the total height of the assembled set. It will be no surprise that the LEGO Eiffel Tower is, by far, the number 1. tallest LEGO set sever made with it’s 149 cm (58 inches). I mean: my children are not even that tall!. And with the 2024 release of the brand new LOTR Barad-Dur set I had to make a few adjustments!
Fun Fact: all the sets from this Top 10 were released in the last 4 years only, so LEGO is doing a great job bringing out these huge sets that seem to be taking over our homes! Are you interested on finding out what the tallest LEGO sets ever made are? Here is the list updated per 14th May 2024:
