Otherwise it would stop spinning with the Pacific Ocean showing every time (and the heavier European side facing down). I like play sets with minifigs, etc. Alexandria, VA uses 22313 for PO Box delivery including USPTO, and 22314 for carrier routes assigned to the same post office).A few are assigned to a single entity. If you don't want LEGO versions of real-life objects that's fine but I think it's great that Ideas is getting sets like this made.If you think it's not accurate enough or you've got a better idea for how to represent Europe, then you can easily have a go yourself. Think it needs to be larger to get the detail required to make it good. I don't mind the gaps at all, they resemble the lines of longitude and latitude. They are closer to groups of routes or sometimes postal facilities. Moreover, I appreciate the varying terrains across the landmasses and the identifying labels are nicely integrated. France also requires improvement, but attaching another piece diagonally beneath the British Isles and above Spain more closely resembles an island than part of Continental Europe to the East. A shame that a company invested in the ethos 'Rebuild the World' should make such a literal and joyless interpretation of the place we all live. The exterior continues to impress as well, capturing the enormity of Asia and featuring the Syrian, Arabian and Gobi deserts. "Tectonic model would not work for continent: North America, South America, Caribbean, Eurasia (no Europe at all), Africa, Arabia, India, Philippine, Australia and Antarctic and a few underwater plates: Pacific, Nazca and Coco.To me, nomenclature changes as people see fit (or impose their way). The Bonsai Tree 10281 had pink frogs and inspired different versions using all sorts of things instead of leaves where's the playful knowing wink in this set? But "Globe", really? As long as your audience understand where in the world you are talking about, the exact name chosen does not matter much. Somehow I feel this is headed to the point where theres just two continents: Australia and Not-Australia. I think this is magnificent display piece and LEGO-ified representation of the Earth. ;-), Amazing set, looks fantastic. Lake Michigan is already the most dangerous, so adding Huron doesnt change that ranking. The world is a fascinating place. Such realism significantly exceeded my expectations, since this globe is otherwise hollow and therefore fairly light. Still awesome though! @LukeSkywalker said:"I think this is magnificent display piece and LEGO-ified representation of the Earth. To me Australia is the continent alone; Australasia or Oceania is the region including most of what surround Australia (including Australia). This is another example of conflating most and all.Specifically, area codes 500, 521-525, 533, 544, 555, 566, 577, 588, 600, 622, 700, 710, 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 867, 888, and 900 exist. Nevertheless, I would recommend 21332 The Globe following a discount and much prefer this geographical creation to 31203 World Map! @CapnRex101 Donyou have a picture with all the printed elements of the set? Balance it out with another 1x1 round plate added exactly opposite to the interior so you dont throw the entire planet off-kilter and risk snapping the axis every time you spin the globe. I'm looking forward to seeing the alternative MOCs people will create. "It makes me think of when Arthur visits Magrathea. @Huw said:"As someone mentioned in the comments to the press release, the continent that encompasses Australia and surrounding islands has not been named correctly, which is an unfortunate mistake. @MisterBrickster said:" @Huw said:"Ok, yes, it seems it's not a mistake, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia_ (continent), although I am sure it was not called that when I went to school! I really don't see any display value here. Theres no clever mechanism like the typewriter to show, or the slightly crazy idea of the shoe.It could have been an interesting and fun educational model to build, even for a school. Can Europe be improved in 21332 The Globe?
(The book, not the year.) Not just cars and helicopters and stuff like thatAnd I think that's also why the Ideas theme has been so great, as it gave us many sets you wouldn't really think of. I dont like the price, but I think otherwise this is a good LEGO version of a globe. They cant really be played with or so much aside from sit as display pieces. I often scan the summary first when reading reviews. @MrMonkey said:"Awesome review!
The price is kinda expensive cause there are issues with this set. @Banners:Oh, I expect that now that people have the instructions available, youll be seeing mods pop up. The excellent appearance of this model therefore seems beyond doubt, although I do harbour concerns regarding the expensive price of 174.99, $199.99 or 199.99. This conspiracy knows no bounds. Like, no sh*t dude, I know my home when I see it! That support just bothers the heck out of me. That got my argument nowhere in their eyes, since I looked like just another boastful United Statesian (you can't call yourself an American there either or else they'd say it was more boasting)! Barely recognize Europe there. These are reinforced using 1x2x1 2/3 bricks with 2x2 plates, joining different layers and creating a sturdy structure. "The Lego designer followed the Risk boardgamr map. This, the ship in a bottle and typewriter all feel like they'd make a nice desktop display. "Australasia was common when I was younger, but thats now a regional definition rather than a continent. Im not sure why you listed that one.Regardless, barring 867 (which _is_ a true area code), I would consider everything on your list to be designated exceptions rather than disproof. Play value, on the other hand, is most definitely absent. Unfortunately this is around 30-40% overpriced. This is a lovely set, but the complete failure of Europe and the horrid price turn me off it. But that probably won't stop me from buying this. @Huw said:"As someone mentioned in the comments to the press release, the continent that encompasses Australia and surrounding islands has not been named correctly, which is an unfortunate mistake. @capnrex101 If only there was a photo with a Porg or some other animal so I could get a better sense of scale lol. Geographically, it is the largest area code under the NANP (its also the least populated, with only about 100k users) and was put into use in 1997 so the territories could stop mooching off of nearby area codes. "Not how I was taught, Oceania was a region not a continent, but people keep changing things looking at you Pluto ! Lets pick on arguably the most famous one. They are just regions which can be what anyone wants to make them (often business trying to divide commercial areas). "You wait until someone has to decide whether or not Pluto gets a spot on the inevitable model of the solar system! Nevertheless, this model integrates an interesting panelled structure, starting with an equatorial ring. Of course I would always want it to be cheaper but I wasn't expecting it to be a cheap set. Now I guess this reminds people that they want a new, non-play set death star (The completed Death Star I). "I appreciate the elaborate, thoughtful, and almost entirely correct response. "The definition of what a Continent is varies a lot and different places have a different number of continents and names depending on the convention and model.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continent. Impressive inner construction but as a whole I would not buy it at half the price, just impossible to make it look good using Lego. Ok, yes, it seems it's not a mistake, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia_ (continent), although I am sure it was not called that when I went to school! 174.99, $199.99 or 199.99 feels quite expensive to me, even though this set contains an impressive total of 2585 pieces. Finally, metallic gold highlights and an elegant nameplate are mounted on the base. I think it used to be either 30 or 60 minutes.The rest of this pertains specifically to the US, though Canada is definitely included in the section on area codes.Anyways, if you actually research them, ZIP codes are most definitely areas. Can't wait to build a Dreath Star with this technique!Also, does the "The Earth" plaque seem entirely redundant to anyone else? Unless you have a limitless supply of money? Looks pretty good, but I think the "wooden" construction is too chunky and makes the globe quite imbalanced.However, I don't buy any display models, so it's not for me anyway.And btw, I really dislike the new summary boxes at the beginning of a review. @monkyby87 said:" @Spike730 said:"You could buy a real vintage globe for that kind of money. "I have also noticed that the US territory of Puerto Rico was left out but, in that area it needed a bigger map. Including a picture of the set with goats for scale seems like a very natural and unintrusive way to include said picture. I'm sure Italy could have been achieved a lot better. Im not sure how it impacts standings on lighthouses.
Their purpose is not immediately apparent, but they will prove important later! By that definition, there are four continents, being Australia, Afro-Eurasia, the Americas, and Antarctica. @Huw said:"Ok, yes, it seems it's not a mistake, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia_ (continent), although I am sure it was not called that when I went to school! After completing the globe, this whole structure slots neatly into its frame using Technic axles. But at least the quality is also there, they didn't really cut any corners like they too often do.I did however also watch the review by Tiago, and when he puts all of the segments next to each other I can't help but feel this will be a somewhat tedious building experience. @Gabriel_Voyager said:"For me is horrible, the first attribute of a globe must be the realism of the earth representation.Europe not only "presents inevitable issues" but is totally unrealistic, France is missing, totally, Iberian peninsula is rappresented as an isle, becuse France is missing, and is also stretched.Italy also is missing as not recognizable.For a globe of a fantasy planet is very beautiful, for a globe of earth is a total failure. Canals and rivers are ignored. @Huw said:"Ok, yes, it seems it's not a mistake, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia_ (continent), although I am sure it was not called that when I went to school! More importantly, not all ZIP codes correspond to any area at all.Sources:https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/geography/guidance/geo-areas/zctas.html4.23 of https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/geography/technical-documentation/complete-technical-documentation/tiger-geo-line.htmlAlso, 12345, 20252, 88888, and private Presidential ZIP codes, exist. @drussell said:"Hollow earth confirmed. @CapnRex101 said:" @benredstar said:" @CapnRex101 If I was building this as a MOC I know that the final stage of construction when you have to complete the sphere would be a nightmare. It turns out the model of continents taught in different nations has as much to do with their own nation's image as it does maybe actually science and geography.I will admit though the tectonic plate model has one flaw, we don't consider India a separate continent from Asia! Excellent review. I tried to explain North and South America are on different tectonic plates. My two cents regarding the Summary box. @kyrodes said:" @Huw said:"Ok, yes, it seems it's not a mistake, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australia_ (continent), although I am sure it was not called that when I went to school! Really like the updates to the reviews.This looks like a fun build, definitely on my wishlist.
Not me anyway.It is a pity because you can see that a massive amount of effort went into the original set design but it just doesnt work.When I see all the great sets that get rejected after hitting the 10 votes and this gets approved? The actual globe features a diameter of 26cm, striking an appropriate balance between practicality for display and ample opportunity for accurate detail. I really don't see any display value here. @Altair1970 said:"I do not understand how this review can be so positive. sunflowers and some star wars sets availableT. States ended up splitting area codes as well. I did not enjoy building 75191, so I don't figure I'll like building that one as well.So I might be getting it someday, but not day one. The force required to click the last section in place when you can't get your hand inside to press from the other side would risk smashing the whole sphere to bits! I will clarify that I mean something that, at any given time, is a statically defined set of fixed points. However, despite the name, many non-geographic area codes exist. "I was concerned about that too, but the angled panels push quite easily into the equatorial band using 2L Technic axles. @CapnRex101:So, Im not sure if people are aware of this, but I hear its possible to modify the design, with pieces you buy later, or pull from your collection. Too big? I really like this, I was looking forward to it and am not disappointed. "The map is not the territory.
