FYI, that Saturn V is an official LEGO kit, and you can build it yourself:

That base doesn’t count if it isn’t at minifig scale.

That Saturn V kit burns in my heart but where would I put it? When would I do it?

The Saturn rocket is not to minfig scale either.

It is glorious, and I’m so glad I have one.
But yes, it does take up a lot of space. It is, however, considerably smaller than the 33" long Millennium Falcon model that I’ll absolutely never have room to display, so I’ll take it.

Yeah but I don’t care about that one. I’ve picked my battle. You’re more than welcome to complain about the rocket. I can share.

A to-scale Saturn V would be about 8.6 feet (2.78m) tall.

I wasn’t complaining, just noting. That said an 8 and a half foot tall rocket would be AWESOME. I mean I don’t have the space for the existing one so might as well go nuts.

It’s to microfigure scale, and comes with three astronauts.
My neighbour’s sits neatly on a windowsill.
I don’t drool on the glass too much…
Mine sits on the mantelpiece behind my computer, although I’ve built a SkyLab payload to go on the top (instructions).
If you stand it up vertically it’s only about 12cm across, so it’s relativity easy to find somewhere to put it.
