Best LEGO Icons Sets

Icons is the adult display line, and it's where the LEGO® sets with five-digit piece counts live. The Eiffel Tower, the Titanic, the Colosseum, Rivendell. These are builds measured in weekends, not evenings, and most of them are designed to sit out on a shelf when you're done.

Everything here is ranked with our review scores leading, so the sets we rate highest sit up top and the unreviewed giants follow by size. Piece count isn't the same thing as quality, but in this theme the two travel together more often than not. Check the year too, because older Icons sets retire and prices climb fast once they do.
