Box

Instructions
The instructions are well-laid out, and the build process is easy to follow. The instructions include helpful callouts for some of the more intricate pieces, which is helpful when working with such a large number of parts. While the build is relatively straightforward, there are a few more advanced building techniques used in the set, which will appeal to experienced LEGO builders.
Overall Design
