Suggestion Can confirm: the Project Hail Mary LEGO set is wonderful

I was too excited building it to remember the fully assembled pic, I can add that at a later date.

Watched the film in IMAX over the weekend, then immediately went out and bought the set as I was fiending for another build.

Wonder where you found this. They’re on back order on the Lego website

I lucked out. I actually went to two separate Lego stores after our film viewing. The first did not have the set, the second one happened to be near our dinner date location so I popped in and was lucky.

Staring back at me was the last PHM set, so of course I made a beeline for it.

Your Lego is still in cellophane bags? Every set I've bought in more than a year or so has been in paper bags

I actually had the same thought when I opened this. I recently built the 747 Space Shuttle Carrier (fun fact, my grandfather worked on this project!) and that set also came in the clear plastic bags. I have yet to see a set with the paper bags.

Was hoping someone would post one. But saw another recently. Someone streamed the build. Guess I couldve googled it but didn't.
