Shuttle Carrier Aircraft (LEGO 10360)

About this set

This is LEGO Icons 10360, a Space Shuttle Carrier Aircraft in the vehicle category, built from 2417 pieces with a 5/5 difficulty rating. The finished model is a shuttle orbiter with a white and black color scheme, and the markings include the NASA logo, the United States text and the Enterprise name, plus landing gear integrated into the build. With that part count and top-end difficulty, I would treat it as a multi-session build: assemble the fuselage frame and the landing gear structure as separate modules first, then bring the outer shell together, so you are not constantly undoing work. Where large white panels meet black detailing, watch orientation and alignment, and place the logo elements after the main body is together so they line up cleanly. It suits builders who have already finished mid-size sets and want a large part count shuttle subject, and collectors with a specific interest in the carrier aircraft look.
