Lego Architecture Studio Now Available

I'm a long-term LEGO fan. If you are, too, this is unlikely to be a set you want. And if you aren't a long-term LEGO fan, you should probably seek the advice of one or more of us before you buy this, because it's probably not what you want, either.

This is a collection of 1210 pieces, all in white. None of them are particularly uncommon. (Did you know you can order individual parts from LEGO at http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Pick-A-Brick-ByTheme and there's http://www.bricklink.com/ to buy and sell from other fans?)

If you are, for some reason, particularly enamored of building some all-white structures, you still won't want this set -- but you might want two or three of them. The parts selection is such that building anything extensive will require more duplicates than are provided.

Here's a pro LEGO builder talking about the set: http://modelbuildingsecrets.wordpress.com/2013/07/27/barnes-...

Google isn't helping me right now, but IIRC didn't Lego use to manufacture bricks for actual architects to prototype with. They were smaller than regular bricks.
