Is it expensive? Yes. but then again it's lego...and compared to other pieces this definitely is good value for what you get.","review_amount":"46","rating_original":"4.7","rating_converted":"94.00","author_name":null,"embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/blocksmag.com\/product\/issue-44\/","snippet":"21039 Shanghai was reviewed in issue 44 of Blocks Magazine.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":"93","rating_converted":"93.00","author_name":null,"embed":null},{"review_url":"http:\/\/click.linksynergy.com\/deeplink?id=TZZm7nNaZzs&mid=13923&murl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lego.com%2Fen-US%2Fproduct%2F21039","snippet":"Overall a great set.

Even if collecting isn't your thing, certain cities can hold sentimental value to you. Unfortunately, I hold no such connection with Shanghai, China (yet), but the clever techniques used throughout the build and the overall premium feel of the product makes for a very pleasant experience regardless.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"hispabrick","embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1-P0teTcwEo","snippet":null,"review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"Jang","embed":"<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/1-P0teTcwEo?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Embedded video from YouTube\"><\/iframe>"},{"review_url":"https:\/\/ninjabrick.com\/lego-21039-shanghai-building-block\/","snippet":"The buildings feature a diversity of techniques that successfully captures Shanghai landmarks.

I appreciate the dramatic difference in height between these buildings and their distinctive architectural styles combine to create an attractive display model, featuring a brilliant colour scheme as well as some interesting building techniques. The twisting Shanghai Tower is particularly impressive.","review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"CapnRex101","embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/www.brothers-brick.com\/2017\/12\/31\/lego-architecture-21309-shanghai-skyline-review\/","snippet":"The completed Shanghai skyline is a pleasure to behold, with new and old architecture styles mixing and providing the visual feast of colors and textures that the city is known for. Each building utilizes different building techniques that are quite enlightening to experience. While many Architecture sets suffer from repetitive building, this set was very fun to construct (taking an hour and a half, including a quick sort of pieces).","review_amount":null,"rating_original":null,"rating_converted":null,"author_name":"Dave Schefcik","embed":null},{"review_url":"https:\/\/www.thebrickfan.com\/lego-architecture-shanghai-21039-review\/","snippet":"The finished model of the LEGO Architecture Shanghai (21039) skyline set is a beauty.
