Here is the primary topic of conversation for this latest addition to the Architecture line, Buckingham Palace, which will retail for €49.99.

Very, very nice.  I love the micro-vehicles.  Another winner for the Architecture theme.

That's a LOT of small plates.  My hands will be tired after building this.

Buckingham Palace:

Upon a closer look, we see a base which is 26 studs wide, 24 studs deep, and about 8 bricks tall, not including the flagpole. (By contrast, The Louvre set has a base which is just 22 studs wide, the same 24 studs deep, and is a little taller at around 12 bricks high.)

 

As such, my best guess (without attempting to build sections of the model using my own bricks) is that the Buckingham Palace will be 800 bricks and a price of 79.99$

For more detailed analysis, read the whole article I just posted at brickarchitect.com.

This sold out at Walmart (in less than 24 hours) so Amazon put it back to full price again.
