Some of the best LEGO recolours in 21065 Sagrada Familia

The new LEGO Architecture Sagrada Familia is huge and therefore packed with rare LEGO recolours and entirely new hues for some parts.

We've got months to wait until 21065 Sagrada Familia and all of its 12,000 pieces land on shelves this November. In the meantime, we can look over the official images to see what awaits us and what will hopefully come to Pick a Brick in early 2027.

From one of the longest-awaited recolours since its debut in Rock Raiders to an assortment of transparent elements for all uses. Read on to see some of the best new LEGO element recolours in the largest LEGO set ever designed.

Transparent pieces aplenty

To recreate the iconic stained glass windows in the real Sagrada Familia, a variety of larger transparent plates are being used at the sides of the model. The provided images aren't clear about what these pieces are, but there are a few different varieties in multiple colours.

At least a few of these larger plates have appeared in a few other sets, including in LEGO Minecraft, but there seem to be multiple new options in 21065 Sagrada Familia.

Hopefully, most, if not all, of these land on Pick a Brick a few months after the set is released on November 1. 

Brick yellow recolours for the spires and fine details

As you would expect from the exterior of 21065 Sagrada Familia, multiple elements are appearing in brick yellow, or tan for the first time. Our trained eyes have spotted the 2x2 jagged drill and the 2x2 flower element in this colour, neither of which has been this hue before.

The latter should be great for different-coloured bird nests to dot around a cityscape, while the former brick yellow element will watch with the jagged drills in other colours.

A clear Rock Raiders crystal, at last

The last new recolour worth highlighting following the Architecture set's reveal has been a long time coming. The iconic LEGO crystal element has gone mostly unchanged since its original mould in Rock Raiders. It was then used in Power Miners before venturing above ground in various other forms.

Now, it's at the tip of 21065 Sagrada Familia in a fully-transparent colour. Its only appearances have had some kind of colour or lack of transparency, but now it is clear for all to see and use.

These new elements and many more will be available in 21065 Sagrada Familia when the new Architecture set launches on November 1 for £649.99 / €749.99 / $799.99.
