Prices change often. Always check the price in the store before you buy.

Good

  • About 0.76 kr per piece
  • Five panels – easy to build together
  • Hangs on the wall instead of taking shelf space

Not so good

  • Mostly flat – less of a 'model'
  • No retirement pressure, so full price is hard to justify

The facts

  • 3,091 pieces in layers that give a 3D effect. 40 cm high, 65 cm wide and 5 cm deep, with a hanger for the wall (LEGO.com).
  • Shows Trappist-1, the Pleiades, the Crab Nebula and the Pillars of Creation, plus a 'You are here' tile (LEGO.com).
  • Built as five panels, each with its own instruction booklet, so several people can build at once. A QR code in each booklet links to a soundtrack about the Milky Way (LEGO.com).
  • List price on LEGO.com Sweden: 2,349.90 kr (checked 3 November 2026), about 0.76 kr per piece. US $199.99, UK £169.99 (Brickset).
  • On sale since May 2024, with no exit date listed on Brickset.

Who should buy it

Space fans with wall space rather than shelf space, and anyone looking for a set to build together over the holidays.

Who should skip it

If you want a model you can pick up and look at from every side – this is a relief, not a sculpture.

Price verdict

The best price per piece among our current verdicts. With no retirement in sight there is no pressure, so wait for a sale.

Verdict: Wait. Our target is 1,880 kr (about 20% under list).

How we set target prices: the target is a level we consider good value, based on price per piece and comparable sets. It is not a prediction that any store will reach it.
