If you or someone you know has visited the Burj Khalifa or enjoys architecture, this is the perfect gift because it is a solid model of the building. If you're buying it for a young person as a toy, however, it is ridiculously simple to construct; most of the building is simply a few stacks of cylindrical pieces. It takes about ten seconds to put together. So this is great if you're looking to build, display, and collect, but not so great if you care about an enjoyable experience putting it together, because it's not worth it if that's your goal.

Total Ripoff. There are only a few unique pieces to this Lego. You could essentially build this with all your leftover legos. Stands about 12" tall and easily falls apart. Don't waste your money.

This was supposed to be a somewhat challenging Lego building. However, my 11 built it in about 20 minutes. It is really just stacking the Lego pieces. Not at all interesting and very expensive. Not a good value.
