Great value

#13 of 106 Icons sets with 1,000+ pieces

The Artemis rocket has no minifigures, but it makes up for that with plenty of build: about 129 pieces per $10 against a typical 97 for a big Icons set and about 24% more plastic per dollar. A 4.4 rating and a $259.99 price roughly 10% below what its contents usually cost seal its great-value score.
