## Description

The Metal Earth models are amazingly detailed etched models that are fun and satisfying to assemble. Each model starts out as 4 inch square metal sheets and you simply pop out the pieces using wire cutters and follow the included directions to assemble your model. The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts center in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. The Opera House design is the creation of Danish Architect Jorn Utzon who took a particular interest in the works of American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The model is 3.9x2.65x1.95 when built. Difficulty level: Challenging. No glue or solder needed.

Review: Challenging but elegant model, well worth it - Highly detail, very fun but it is a challenge, I have a large collection of these buildings but this one was truly fun.
Review: Great price - received on time - Great price - received on time. Have not been able to assemble yet due to medical issues. My wife visited this famous site and I wanted to assemble it for her display cabinet. I'm sure it will be as fine as the other Metal Earth kits I have assembled, such as Notre Dame, Eiffel Tower, Golden Gate Bridge, etc. The detail on these kits is highly intricate, and patience is required, along with ensuring you have the proper tools for assembly. But the outcome of the extreme visual detail is highly admired by all viewers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Metal Earth - like creating Architectural Jewelry
*by K***N on January 23, 2015*

I love all Metal Earth 3d models from the simple to the challenging. The Sydney Opera house is mostly challenging at the folded connection between the reverse curved elements. You definitely need to view the 360 model on the website to get the right "spread" for this piece in order to get the tabs to meet the right spots. Only reason for one less star is instructions and shipping. Sometimes the instructions aren't clear about inserting tabs from "inside" or "outside" the connection which is a HUGE difference. Shipping is about the packaging. I have received many of these Metal Earth models in a simple bubbled envelope which is not good. Most of the time they arrive slightly bent since it is very thin sheet metal. Even one time it was shipped in a box, but there was not enough "padding" to keep it from bouncing around and, therefore, getting bent. Some of the bent ones I was able to "fix" and others I simply re-ordered since it wouldn't be worth my time to replace. Overall, these are a tone of fun to build and require a ton of patience...:-)
