This LEGO set (21345) recreates the iconic Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera in brick form, designed as a collectible model for adults. The buildable replica features functional details like a viewfinder, color spectrum display, exposure compensation dial, and authentic "Polaroid Land Camera" branding with optional "OneStep" or "1000" stickers.
The set includes a buildable Time-Zero Supercolor SX-70 Land Film pack containing three illustrated photos: one of Polaroid inventor Edwin H. Land, another of the LEGO House, and a third of the fan designer’s sister, who inspired the project. The camera operates with an interactive feature—insert a photo and press the red shutter button to eject it, mimicking the original model.
With 516 pieces, the completed camera measures over 3.5 inches (9 cm) high, 3.5 inches (9 cm) wide, and 6 inches (15 cm) deep, making it a display-worthy piece. The set comes with a step-by-step guide, including an illustrated booklet with interviews from the fan designer and LEGO team, ensuring a structured building experience. Suitable as a gift for photography enthusiasts or LEGO collectors.
Things to Keep in MindCommon criticisms include the product's high price point, with some noting its cost is comparable to an actual instant camera. Additionally, several customers reported issues such as missing pieces or finding the instructions unclear and the overall design quality below typical Lego standards. Why You'll Like ItThis set is frequently praised for its authentic design, accurate colors, and functional features, such as the working shutter and ejecting photo, which many find highly detailed and nostalgic. It offers an engaging build experience, particularly for those familiar with Lego.
