Saturn V is 1:110 scale
Artemis 1 is 1:144 scale
ISS is 1:225 scale
Artemis is smaller than Saturn V?
@mreggs3731 yes, the Saturn V model is 48in long and the Artemis 1 model is 27.5in tall.
The actual Saturn V is 41ft taller than the Artemis 1
I had the opportunity to see this rocket in person, it was being fueled for tests when i was visiting kennedy space center last year. It was awesome to see.
Duuuude that sounds totally tubular
looks cool, but its too small to really display next to the Saturn V, in reality they are only 13m / 42 feet apart (98m vs 111m). Thats not really an issue tho, the bigger issue is that stickers are used. No display model should ever have stickers period. Thats why the Saturn V is one of the few actually great sets of the recent years because it looks great, is a good price and has no stickers
Agreed. Even setting aside its status as a display piece, there must be some price point at which Lego is willing to say "We will go the extra mile and use only printed pieces, no stickers." I don't know where exactly that point lives (and obviously it will have to increase with time) , but it should definitely be well under this set's $260 pricetag.
Same with UCS sets, you'd think if u spent $650 on a venator that they'd atleast print the republic symbol
Don't care
95% of people buying this give zero shits about stickers on lego lol...ive never understood that tbh
@@Shadow0fd3ath24 least they can do is print a sticker for a 650 display set with no play functions and 2 characters
It's so refreshing to see someone who actually knows some stuff about real rockets and is aware of the current events happening regarding space travel.
@@Stodolnyalol
@@parkieshark to believe in space would require to think it violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics. a natural law which means it always happens and isnt debatable. in short - the air you breath on earth would fill the vacuum of space. But since it does not, that means that there is a container (firmament) and so that means space travel isnt real :)
@@Stodolnya listen man if you struggle to understand how earths atmosphere works, that's on you.
@@CreativeCache101 are you saying you can contain gas pressure without a physical container?
@@Stodolnya not on the earth, but at the planetary scale yes. Gravity holds the atmosphere close to the surface, and the density is a gradient because the force weakens as you get further from the surface. There is no precise point at which atmosphere stops and space begins, indeed we lose a small amount of the atmosphere to space every year. But since this explanation is already widely available to you i suspect you will continue to ignore it, perhaps with justification that gravity is not a thing🙃
Such a detailed set. That launch pad alone just looks meticulously designed. Can’t wait to see it in person
I love the N AS A sticker looks so realistic and the color difference between the stickers and bricks is also amazing
Yeah, the guy never criticizes anything... Or he does, mildly, but immediately finds an excuse for them.
@@demonbreUnfortunately, this is the case for almost everyone who is part of the LAN.
"This exact rocket will be bringing astronauts back to the moon…" I think it will be substantially bigger and made of metal.
underrated comment! 😂😂
@@liamaston6545 Starship👀
Boooooooo😆
What is this, a rocket for ants!?
You underestimate the power of the Lego
The Saturn V was 1:110 Scale, while this is 1:160 scale.
P.S. When will we see more of Geonosis?
As someone who is currently working on the Artemis program, I am so incredibly excited to get this set!
Building the crawler transporter out of the drive and tracks from the Liebherr crane set would be a cool MOC.
I absolutely will be picking this up. Love the look of the set.
When the set got leaked on reddit about a month or so ago, the first thing i got excited about after the "oh my god its an artemis lego" was legit "no way it has the launch pad???" I wish my Saturn V had a launch pad, so this is nice to see a rocket set with an accurate launch tower in addition to the rocket itself, despite the size difference. Hoping to get my hands on it soon!
Im really, really excited about this set. I've built several sets partially with my daughter; Concorde, Saturn V, the Lunar Lander and Rivendell. They've all been great, but this is an opportunity to build something with her that is actually current. I can imagine holding on to it for a few years until they're actually ready to go to the moon, and it would become the most amazing educational experience for her and her brother too as he'd be old enough to join in. Cant wait!
I don't like your daugther.
@@mantisbog a bit like my wife doesn't like my expensive hobbies 😂
It's very cool! I'm going to ask Santa for it for Christmas 🙂
This honestly an amazing looking set already 2 minutes into the video
Thank you for sharing info about the Artemis missions! It is an incredible time for space and space exploration with the Artemis missions leading up to a permanent moon base for the first time in the history of humanity! I am loving the look and functionality of this set! Lego has been hitting it out of the park with their NASA sets and this one does not disappoint. I will be happily adding this to my collection. Thanks for the review.
Love the greebling details on this, very tempting!
Now we need a Starship set... PLEASE!!!
Yes! Especially one based of the lunar lander
beautiful set. So much detail and not just the rocket in itself.
I really didn't mind the tedious tower build because the end result is incredible. BTW, did anyone else chuckle at the Octan easter eggs while building the fuel nozzles in the base? 😁
Saturn V had no stickers, Artemis is full of them and they are mostly placed on rounded bricks. Probably the most blatant example of Lego quality falling flat on its face that I can think of.
Its pretty typical. Unless its a really special piece or a cone, they don’t seem to like to print unless the design is used more than twice in the set, or they plan on using it on multiple sets.
Saturn V Rocket’s body features four of each printed part that isn’t a conical piece.
Artemis’s body doesn’t repeat anything more than twice. For example the solar panels on the module are printed, used 4 times in this set, and have use in other sets.
Definitely getting this one
YEEEEEEES i gotta buy this set I love the NASA series. Also ive never been so early to one of your vids lol
That looks more like space rocket, to me Saturn V looks more like a missile.
Also love the detailing like the mini doors and stairs.
If you think hard enough, all rockets are missiles!
@@rustyshackleford234 Exactly it's just a different payload.
@@Dave83138lol neither SLS or the Saturn V nor their lineage were ever warhead platforms.
the US’ main launch vehicles during the space race except for the Saturn V were 100% originally ICBMs, but it wasn’t just a matter of swapping out the payloads, they required what were essentially complete redesigns from their ICBM ancestors which makes sense when one is suborbital and a weapons system and the other is an orbital launch vehicle.
@STS-Dreamer I never stated those platforms were used as weapons. It simply is a generic statement that they are basically the same tech.
@@Dave83138 yeah I had a feeling you probably weren’t implying that so idk why I said that, my b. second half about the swapping out the payload still stands tho but I’m sure you probably knew that too and I’m just being pedantic lmao.
Looks epic great detail awseome review 👍
There’s a typo on the info plaque: The time to orbit was 8 minutes, 40 seconds - not 3 minutes, 40 seconds. Lego needs to update the sticker.
Can’t believe they didn’t catch that before printing it
holy, this is incredible
Picking this up tomorrow! My sons name is Orion. So hyped! :)
lego space sets are amazing
Thanks for the honest review and detail. It looks awesome but I am all about the build and if it is not fun I will wait for discounts. That tower is extra 😂
Great review!
Personally I feel like this is a great value. Intresting info on the bending moment
The set is interesting, not poorly detailed. But for such a price I would like to finally get printed parts, and not stickers.
After getting the Saturn set and me being someone who works for NASA on this project, I was actually looking forward to the release of this one. Honestly, im not as excited about this one as I was with the Saturn.
It's kinda insane that you're saying this set has a worse building experience than the Eiffel Tower 😂. I built the Eiffel Tower and let's just say it was the most repetitive sets I've ever built. Still fun to build tho.
I actually can't wait to get the Artemis Space Launch System the design looks incredible i love we get to recreate the launch along with getting the option to display Orion separately I'm going to be taking my time putting together and can't wait to display along side with my Saturn V, Lunar Lander and ISS .
I‘m getting this, for sure.
The SLS block 2 (cargo version) is actually a bit bigger than the saturn v, and a meter taller.
The block 1 (this lego set) is a bit shorter. But the diameter is much closer than what we got. I don’t think they are to scale, especially when you consider that the appollo service module and the orion one are supposed to be of a similar size.
That's because this one is 1:160, while the Saturn V is 1:110. Big mistake on LEGO's part.
Love it!
Thank you for addressing the build experience. I personally found the Eiffel Tower very tedious and so I will need to rethink this set.
I imagine this set and the Eifel Tower are a nightmare to keep clean (dust, cobwebs, etc.).
Great review! New subscriber.
Damn this set looks pretty insane
Cool didnt know this excist. Built the saturn 5 and the shuttle. I need to pick up this one too
I wish the Apollo rocket set 21309 came launch pad? Does anyone known of a good MOC instruction with parts listing for it? It would be a great display compliment for this set.
Correction - Its not the launch pad (LC 39) but the Mobile Launcher (ML) that the crawler can carry to the launch pad for launch. J.
8:08 I would say to scale, they’re slightly off, but not by a lot. Saturn 5 was 363 feet tall, whereas SLS is 322 feet tall. So if I were to scale these rockets, SLS should be slightly taller. That said, this will in no way affect whether I’m buying SLS or not - I definitely will!
The Lego Saturn V is a 1 to 110 scale, while this SLS (Artemis) rocket is 1 to 140 scale. So, the scales are definitely not the same, still a great set though!
Needs the crawler along with the VAB. That would be cool
Enjoyed your perspective on this set, David. A very balanced review, and I totally get what you mean by lackluster building experiences. The cool end result makes it a difficult choice for me (because I love realistic builds like this), but your insights will help guide my decision--probably going to pass.
Your review was spot on. I love this set but building the tower was extremely tedious!
I feel they dropped the ball on the white pieces at the top of the rocket below the cone. These fall apart easily because they only connect at the top and bottom.
LEGO Icon Space Launch System, including Artemis Rocket.
Nice 😺 I’m so happy that Space, in Classic Lego, Friends, Technic, and even CMF’s is really having a moment right now! Not to mention Star Wars. But NASA better get some more of that money than Disney! NASA > Disney! Great build, looking forward to getting mine! Cheers 🍻
When the large Shuttle Adventure and Shuttle Expedition sets came out (around 2010) I started building a Mobile Launch Platform and launch tower for the Shuttle Adventure, with the intent to build the Transporter/Crawler too. When the Saturn V came out I was surprised that the Shuttle(s) and Saturn V were "pretty close" to the same scale. The Shuttle Orbiter is way oversized on both sets, but the overall height of the Shuttle stack and Saturn V were close to the same scale. I could have used the same MLP for both rockets. I'm disappointed to see that this Artemis set is much smaller than those sets. I bought a bag of1x6x4 "girder" pieces, that are on the edges of the base of the Artemis set, for use in my designs They are way too small for the scale of the Shuttles and Saturn V. The SRBs are also smaller than the Shuttle stack too. Which is too bad. I know this keeps part count and price down, but still. It would have been nice to have all the major eras of the US Space Program to be in similar scale in LEGO.
I kind of wish Lego has a Delta 1, 2, 3, and 4 with a SLK pad all in one set in honor of the last Delta rocket flight in April 24. Delta is one of the most successful commercial rocket programs in history.
Cant wait to get this. I'm a lifelong space enthusiast. I built saxos 1:110 scaled model of the sls crew. It's an amazing build.
I have autographs of the whole Artemis 2 crew 😊
I don’t have anything else to say but nice.
Really a shame they refused to make it the same scale as the Saturn V. And they're going backwards with stickers. The Saturn V had none and that came out many years ago.
i already have the other nasa space sets (saturn V, iss, perseverance rover, space shuttle and the moon lander) so im definitly getting this one, would have prevered it to have less stickers and for it to have been the same scale as the saturn V but it still looks very cool
in reality the rockets differ by only 13 meters so the scale is quite a bit different. In my opinion a good way to compare is the core diameter: The real Saturn V is 10 meters, SLS is 8.4 meters, while the lego models are 12 and 6 studs respectively. To be to scale, the SLS would've had to be over 10 studs in diameter, but at that scale include the launchtower would've probably been too expensive.
I wish it was all printed pieces. I can't wait to get it. I wish they would make the stack and the mobile launch platform for the Orbiter Discovery they released
Am I alone in saying I wish LEGO would make 18+ sets printed pieces only? Stickers make the model feel cheaper, like one of those cheap plastic space ships you'd get at a science museum.
100% agree. Premium price = Premium pieces.
Is this to the same scale as the Saturn V? Would love it if they were the same to put it next to the Saturn V.
This doesn't feel like Lego. 260 for 3000 pieces is amazing and it looks absolutely stunning
When you were flying the rocket around at 3:17 did you make noises? Dunno how you couldn’t. 😊
Wonder if we can use this to finally make the previous shuttle complete??
Anxiety score 9/10
As someone who is running out of room to put things in my collection - how do you deal with this? Where do you put these things once you have made them? What you are given and build seems to be neverending!
I will have to make… space.. for this set in my office
There’s an awesome Saturn V tower you can get from China. Looks great
I cant explain it but it feels like a custom set
For the SLS to be in scale with the Saturn V it would need to be about 3 or 4 bricks shorter.
The current version of the SLS rocket for Artemis I, II, & III is only 98 meters tall. So obviously its not in-scale with the Saturn V model.
Starting with Artemis IV NASA is switching to the Block 1B rocket which will be 110 meters, same as Saturn V. The taller Block 1B also comes with a taller launch pad with some design changes for the bigger rocket.
Wonder if it will get a gwp
Thanks for showing off this great set! The designers knocked it out of the park. FWIW, calling this launch vehicle "The Artemis" is incorrect. Artemis is the mission designation, Orion is the crewed vehicle, and the launch vehicle is called the Space Launch System, or SLS. Also, the SLS in the configuration represented in this set is only slightly shorter in stature than the Saturn V vehicle, so the scale of these two sets is not close. A big kudos...your production quality is excellent, as always!
eh it’s really not that crazy to call it the “Artemis SLS” or just Artemis as a shorthand for the SLS & Orion stack, the Saturn V was similarly called the Apollo rocket when in its actual stack with the CSM and LM on top (and this is by actual members of NASA not just laymen using the program name as a shorthand).
@@STS-Dreamer Fair play. Thanks for the informed reply! Cheers.
Looks like it would fit nicely next to my 1:144 scale Revell Saturn V. Has anyone calculated the scale of this set?
Just for your information: Lego 6339 also had a launch pad, many functions end even minifigs. And if building this is even more tedious than the Eiffel Tower, I will gladly skip it.
Yes it would be nice to be in scale with the Saturn model but this is a day one pick up for me. Again, rambling to get over the 10mins threshold
you should change out that hulkbuster to the rebrickable one by ransomfern
I was really excited for this set until this review. I'm not usually one to complain about stickers normally, but I am with this set. Also, the rocket compared to the Saturn V rocket, is absolutely tiny. I'd have preferred a bigger Artemis rocket, with all printed pieces, and no launch pad at all.
I like that it came with the launch pad. Seen other reviews of how the mechanism holding the rocket works and it’s awesome
Great review SBS !, Finally we see some more interesting subjects from LEGO , but agree with your findings and you can see it sort of looks good but it's still a little kiddy style and its too simplified a big Zonk with those stickers, the two simplified booster holders looks like after thought and the tower corners are made from circular elements that should have been square and unlike the great Saturn V that was super high resolution Lego Adult quality style . Imagine what the proper adult version prototype would have looked like in the testing stages and would have been as good as the Saturn V but price has come into this version . It's the economy of sales at play here and the Lego bean counters decided on this to hit target both markets kids and adults and in addition the head people at LEGO are too worried if they create models with more accuracy it starts not looking like a LEGO product because there is fewer studs visible . EG Saturn V and Star Wars UCS 10212 Shuttle Adult Lego , amazing models but since they came out there was a change back to seeing more studs on cheaper kiddy versions.
I think there's has been too much simple LEGO thats been coming out over the last two years except for the Start Wars UCS tie interceptor and the amazing the new X wing and the great
D11 buldozer . Thats was it . Purchased the amazing Saturn V but Im passing on this .
"Release the rocket and pull it up." Thats what she said.
Lego should’ve done the falcon 9 cause space X is doing more than nasa
Honestly a lot cheaper than i thought it would be...i figured $349+ since they usually do 9 cents+ per piece on average
Is there any info out there on whether LEGO has ever considered doing any SpaceX sets? Is it a licensing thing or what? This set looks great and all but the SLS just doesn’t have the cool factor of the Saturn V, Shuttle, Falcon 9/Heavy, or Starship.
metres and pounds on the same plaque - just weird - great set though.
Lego needs to adapt to the SI units. Give me my kilograms, doesn’t matter if the americans don’t understand lmao.
hopefully they make a lego set with Blue Origin
I have seen the airtimes 1 launch in person
Nice. I hope to see the next one
Unfortunately, the problems revealed with the Orion capsule after Artemis-1, combined with SpaceX Human Landing System (HLS) still in early development, the landings will more than likely be delayed to 2027 or 2028.
To not mention that if something happens... I could see this set with sad feelings all my life... Personally I think this set arrived too soon.
need a Lego Spacex rocket model
I hope one day we can get a Lego starship
There's a few chinese brands that make a red launch tower for the Saturn V
Yes, I had one of those. One thing I didn't like was the long technic rods that would break easily from forcing, though the parts.
2:08 if you want to see the set and not just the box
8:00 wikipedia tells me it's 110.6 meters for the Saturn V, and 98 meters for the SLS block 1. They don't look to scale to me.
The launch pad/tower is cool but honestly not really needed, nobody thinks of the launch pad when they think of rockets. Would’ve much much rather had a larger SLS that’s the same scale as the Saturn Rocket so you could display them next to each other.
The amount of stickers is such a joke compared to the Saturn V.
Artemis has 98 m and Saturn V has 110 m. However, it is a really nice video!
If you can build a whole Geonosis battle, I expect to see a custom launch pad for the Saturn V.... Just saying 😌
Did you and Tiago upload these reviews at the same time on purpose?
Awesome review! But being big isn’t an advantage, it’s actually a cons. Super big sets like this quickly occupies all your display areas unless you live in a giant house. The occupied space is an opportunity cost. So I don’t think it has excellent value just because it’s big and has a lot of pieces.
