"Project Hail Mary earns a Recommended rating at a BrickScore of 71.2, but its 4.9-out-of-5 owner score across 389 ratings suggests the mechanical centrifuge feature and printed-only pieces resonate deeply with buyers who take the plunge at $99.99."
Project Hail Mary (11389) earns a Recommended verdict with a BrickScore of 71.2, and owner enthusiasm runs considerably hotter: 389 buyers across Amazon, LEGO.com, and Walmart average 4.9 out of 5, with value-for-money rated 4.47 out of 5. Reviewers consistently highlight the working centrifuge mechanism and the first-ever Ryan Gosling minifigure as highlights, while noting that the Technic-heavy construction may not suit every builder. The film tie-in gives it broad appeal beyond traditional LEGO fans.

Project Hail Mary is treated as an exceptional, near-flawless set by nearly every owner, with the spinning centrifuge mechanism, zero stickers, and delightful Rocky minifig earning it some of the most enthusiastic praise in the entire sample.
