Tile (part 2555) in 194 Medium Stone Grey Light Bluish Gray, with White Crosswalk Pattern (element 6286223). However, this set is a better model and display piece than Dubai and San Francisco, and the Japanese capital is a more appealing destination to have in LEGO form. I had been waiting for this set, as I lived in Tokyo for 13 years, and frankly this is disappointing. Shield your LEGO® Architecture: Tokyo Skyline set against being knocked and damaged for peace of mind. The printed skyline has been professionally designed to include all the famous historic and modern landmarks of the Tokyo metropolis, including the Nishi-Shinjuku skyscraper district, Tokyo Tower, Tokyo Imperial Palace, Rainbow Bridge, Tokyo Skytree and the Daikanransha Ferris wheel.

This is also sensible given the small-scale nature of the build and the fiddliness of applying stickers to such tiny surfaces. Featuring four prominent inverted pyramids, Tokyo Big Sight (completed 1996) is an iconic convention center located on the waterfront.Even new LEGO® architects can enjoy this easy-to-build architecture model kit, and it makes a cool creative Japanese gift for adults aged 16+ who have been to Tokyo, dream of visiting, or live/have lived there.

Lastly, I was pleased to see some advanced building techniques, especially for the Tokyo Big Sight exhibition center. Much like the real city, 21051 Tokyo manages to pack an awful lot into a relatively small space and although there's a diverse mix of colours and building styles, nothing clashes. The series was introduced in 2016 and now contains more than a dozen sets representing cities such as New York City, Venice, Sydney, Chicago, London, Paris and many more. One negative point is that Tokyo has been around for three years, which is longer than average, so this needs to be factored in.
