"One of the Architecture line's most celebrated entries, earning a BrickScore of 78.3 and a 4.76-star average from over 2,100 owners; the layered pyramid design and rich Nile setting are genuinely impressive, with the half-pyramid format the only significant caveat buyers should go in knowing about."
Reviewers and owners alike are largely enthusiastic about the Great Pyramid of Giza, with a BrickScore of 78.3 and a near-perfect 4.76-star average across 2,142 owner ratings. The set is praised for its layered design that shows the pyramid simultaneously finished, in-progress, and interior, along with the Nile riverbank, mortuary temple, and surrounding village. The one recurring friction point is the half-pyramid design: the set depicts only one side of the structure, and while the product images made this clear, a meaningful share of buyers were surprised. The 87% would-recommend rate confirms this issue doesn't dominate the experience, but it remains the most-mentioned caveat.

"This lovely diorama moves the time span covered by the Architecture series more than 2,000 years further into the past – The Great Wall of China is the only prior set within several millennia of it – and is also the first Architecture set to depict the same structure at different points in time."

"Architecture sets have, until now, depicted modern and historical buildings as they appear today. The 1,476-piece 21058 The Great Pyramid of Giza, which will be released on June 1st, breaks from this tradition by portraying the structure as it might have looked when it was nearing completion, some 4,500 years ago."
The vast majority of owners love this set as a beautiful, detailed display piece with an engaging cross-section build, though the need to buy two copies for a complete pyramid frustrates a vocal minority who missed that detail.
