This is one of those sets where I think it looks better built in front of you than it does in the pictures, this is a really nice set. Lots of cool details. It has some issues, MOC issues. The main building is very fragile while building and I had it come flying apart on me 3 times, pretty frustrating. The holder pieces sticking out of the spire had to be glued, they were all loose. The base for the spire was extremely fragile and needed to be glued, the spire itself is solid. No missing pieces and the instruction booklet is very high quality with a heavy paper cover. Maybe highest quality instructions I've seen. Cluch and fit is good, fragility is the biggest issue but only in a couple places. This is a Halloween display set for me so I'm not taking it apart so the gluing was no issue. Normally I do not like to glue my sets, so I only used it when necessary.
