So finally the monster has been completed. Coffee table in sitting room free of LEGO for first time in a month.

Set is huge! Biggest set I own by a mile. My Batman tumbler seems to be a different scale now ha.

Now you need a miniminifig population to fill out the building, ,can't wait to see the size of the case it'll be in to keep it dust free, and I just want to move the stairs

Does look great Aidan. Have to say the microscale size has tempted me as you can make cities on a kitchen table (plus 1-wide cars ;) ). This is bigger than the standard microscale though as the microfigs would be at least 2 floors high but the little figs are great. Any preferences, the Voldemort one looks cool even from the back.
