"The Polaroid OneStep SX-70 earns its Recommended BrickScore of 74.4 through excellent design accuracy and a genuinely satisfying shutter-eject feature, but the $79.99 ask for 516 pieces ($0.155 per piece) is a real caveat that critics flag at a value consensus of just 54, even as 2,048 owners award it 4.72 overall."
The LEGO Ideas Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera (21345) draws consistent praise for its striking design accuracy and the satisfying functional shutter mechanism that ejects a printed photo tile when pressed. Three expert sources align on strong aesthetics (89 design consensus) and solid display value (86.4), pushing the set to a BrickScore of 74.4 and a Recommended tier. The main point of tension is value: at $79.99 for 516 pieces ($0.155 per piece), expert reviewers rate value for money at just 54, but 2,048 owners give it an average of 4.72 with owners' own value-for-money signal coming in at 4.09 out of 5.
Where they split: The clearest split is on value for money: expert reviewers score it at 54, reflecting concern about the $0.155 price per piece for a 516-piece set. Owners score value at 4.09 out of 5 and rate the overall set at 4.72. Notably, only 55% of LEGO-platform buyers indicate they would recommend the set, which is low relative to the numeric rating and may suggest some buyers feel the price is a barrier even as they enjoy the model itself.

Owners love the nostalgic design and functional photo-ejecting mechanism, but durability issues and unclear instructions for the action parts are genuine pain points that frustrate some builders.
