Mini FAQ

1. Is “largest” by size or by pieces?

Most rankings use piece count as the main metric, because physical size can be misleading (large shells vs dense detail).

By that standard, World Map is the current champion, with Sagrada Família poised to overtake it when officially launched.

2. What about physically tallest or longest sets?

  • Tallest: Eiffel Tower (about 149 cm).
  • Longest: Titanic (about 135 cm).
