Fun to build lego set recommendation? (lemmy.world)

I was obsessed with Lego as a kid, and would like to get into the hobby once again, not as an investment, but for the fun of it.

I am huge fan of Star Wars, and Lego star wars seem to be all the rage nowadays, but looking at the sets, they seem to be awfully overpriced for what they seem offer.

I am looking for something that will be fun to build, and not terribly pricey (not more than cca 180€). Preferably fantasy or scifi inspired.

I’ve been browsing the lego website and this set in particular cought my eye. Any recommendations? Thanks

for a fun building experience, I recommend https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/galaxy-explorer-10497

additionally, although they won't advertise this very much of the set, but it has online building instructions for TWO alternate builds!

The original Galaxy Explorer was my first large set as a child, I purchased this one because of that. I ended up loving it so much I picked up two more boxes so I can do alternative builds with it.

That set is absolutely a great experience to build!

The Galaxy Explorer is a fantastic build, and even better finished product (imo). I love just randomly swooshing it around the place; and I'm 27 years old.
