Messi – Football Legend (LEGO 43015)

About this set

This is LEGO 43015 Leo Messi – Football Legend, part of the LEGO Editions line. The box shows the LEO MESSI name and the 43015 code, and the subject is a sports/football figure scene. At 958 pieces and a 4/5 difficulty, it is worth sorting the white, blue, black, gold and green parts before you start, since those colours rotate through the steps and pre-sorting saves digging. The build centres on a Messi minifigure in the number 10 shirt with both arms raised in celebration, plus a football at his feet, set against a number 10 backdrop panel and LEO MESSI lettering. The trickier part is lining up the lettering and backdrop with the figure, so finish the minifigure and ball first, then attach the backdrop and press the large surfaces flat. It is marked 2in1, so you can display it two ways. With 958 pieces and that difficulty, it suits builders with some clutch experience, and football fans will recognise the pose.
