LEGO® Ideas 21362 Mineral Collection for Ages 18+, 880-pc

I really enjoyed this build. Was a little difficult due to all the clear pieces but all in all I had fun with it... finish piece is stunning

If you're a dedicated lego maniac and have a love for geology, this is the set for you. It was a blast to build from the first brick and looks great next to my work setup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a 40-year-old LEGO enthusiast, the excitement was very real when I got the chance to build the Mineral Collection — and it absolutely did not disappoint. This set is just brilliant. The builds are detailed, satisfying and full of those lovely fiddly bits that make LEGO so relaxing to put together. The instructions are easy to follow, but the build itself still feels engaging and rewarding — exactly how I like it. The geode has to be my favourite piece. It looks amazing once finished and has such a striking, display-worthy design. Building this set gave me some much-needed time out from the kids, and now it’s sitting proudly on my sideboard looking far better than any ornament I could’ve bought. In fact, I’d take this over real crystals any day — no dust (yet), no fragility, and a lot more fun to create. Now I just have to hope the kids admire it from a distance and don’t try to “help”. Overall, this is a fantastic set for adult LEGO fans who love mindful building and stylish display pieces. A real joy from start to finish.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Building the LEGO® Mineral Collection was such a joy! This 880-piece set lets you recreate six vibrant minerals — golden pyrite, purple amethyst, blue fluorite, watermelon tourmaline, reddish-pink rhodochrosite, and tangerine quartz — using clever techniques and transparent bricks that capture their colors beautifully. The set includes three buildable display shelves that you can arrange and customize, making it a stunning piece of living room decor. My son also got involved, and it was a fun, shared creative experience. A perfect gift for rock collectors, nature lovers, and LEGO fans, combining art, creativity, and displayable models all in one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an amazing piece of lego but quite difficult for some of it to be put together. It does say it's for 18+ but my 11 year old daughter helped me as a lot of it is quite simple to piece together. It does take quite a while to put together, there are 7 bags of lego and within some of the bags there are additional smaller bags, each one takes about an hour to put together. You 1st construct the base for each mineral to sit on but once everything is constructed it genuinely looks amazing. There are instructions for each bag which you follow and it helps piece by piece to put this together, in total there are around 900 pieces but it's a brilliant way to construct and test you mental agility. We love lego and how it looks when completed and this is an amazing piece and looks fantastic.
