LEGO 21309 Saturn V NASA Apollo Saturn V Review Part 1

The Saturn V rocket, also known as the Moon Rocket, is a multi-stage, disposable, liquid-fuel rocket used by NASA in the Apollo and Skylab programs. The Saturn V super-heavy launch vehicle is the second most powerful launch vehicle after the Soviet Energia. A total of 13 Saturn V launch vehicles were launched between 1967 and 1973, and they maintain a perfect launch record. A total of 9 Saturn V launch vehicles sent manned Apollo spacecraft into lunar orbit. The production line of the Saturn V launch vehicle was closed in 1970. The last launch of the Saturn V was in 1973, which sent the Skylab space station into low-Earth orbit. The successor, the Space Launch System (SLS system), is known as the most powerful launch vehicle system in history.

Before the review, l would like to introduce the ENBRIC Launch Umbilical Tower and ENBRlC Crawler Transporter Pro Max, which are the best brick sets for LEGO Saturn V and are only sold on ENBRIC.COM(PS: The inferior ones sold on other knockoff websites without paper instructions and numbered step bags are not related toENBRIC)

The front is the full view of the Saturn V, which is still very imposing.

The back of the box is the disassembly diagram of the Saturn V. The back of the box is the disassembly diagram of the Saturn V.

The back is a diagram of the disassembly of the Saturn V. They are the first stage, second stage, third stage, lunar module, service module, command module and launch escape system

Let's take a look at the manual. There are no stickers, no stickers, no stickers! For a clumsy person, it's perfect to have no stickers and all printed parts.

There are twelve packages of parts in total

The last part of the manual is the idea of ​​that time, and I am quite happy with the 21307 model

Okay, let's start with the first package. The first package is still based on the main structure (isn't this nonsense)

The orange disassembler is given

I've heard before that the assembly process of Saturn V is to repeat, repeat, and repeat again, but I didn't expect that the first page would start with 4X

The small satellite in the middle The small satellite in the middle

The first package is over, and the internal engineering of the first-stage rocket is basically completed. You can see the comparison photo with my palm, the size is not small

Below are the remaining parts of the first package

Starting with the second package, let's take a look at the parts first, the big USA twelve-letter printed parts

Zoom in and take a closer look

The evil 4X

Part of the shell is finished (don't mind the messy background)

No parts left in the second package

Next, let's take a look at the third package, which is still a parts diagram. Most of them are smooth curved shell parts. In addition, there is the second of the only two printed parts in the first six packages - the American flag

It's still very delicate if you look closely

The third package is completed, and most of the shell is covered

The only remaining part

The fourth package has a list of parts, all of which are long and thin strips, which is still a perfection of surgery

A small technology piece was used to assemble several fuel tanks

Several grilles and fuel tanks obstructed some of the internal details

The fourth package is completed, and the appearance has come out

List of remaining parts

Start the fifth package

The fifth package mainly improves the grille of the middle section of the first-stage rocket. The installation of the grille is very clever. The grille is installed through the internal detail buckles assembled in the first package

The main body is displayed, the overall degranulation, and the external work of the first-stage rocket has been completed

List of remaining parts

List of parts in the sixth package. It can be seen from the sixth package that this package of parts is mainly used to make the booster part of the first-stage rocket. Some of the parts are the first time I have seen them. I don’t know if they are exclusive to this SET

You can also see a few small sticks from the Tech series, which are used to connect parts to form a complete propulsion system

I am very satisfied with the details of the booster. I think the most interesting part of the first six packs is the booster

The first six packages of the entire Saturn V have been completed. The entire six packages are used to assemble the first stage rocket. It can be seen that the first stage rocket is the foundation of the whole, and the details are also good. The printed parts are much better than stickers.

Summary

The first part of the Saturn V review is completed, and there are not many parts left in the first six packages. Overall, the assembly experience is average, and the large number of 4X is relatively boring. However, after the completion, the size of the first stage rocket still surprised me. It is much longer than my forearm. I am looking forward to the size of the finished product.
