Commissioned by King Frederick William II of Prussia as a sign of peace, the Brandenburg Gate is one of Berlin's most important monuments – both as an architectural landmark and historic symbol – for over 200 years. The grandest of a series of 18 gates through which the city was accessed, the Brandenburg Gate was constructed between 1788 and 1791 from the designs of architect Carl Gotthard Langhans and was inspired by the Propylaea in Athens. Built in sandstone and comprised of 12 Doric columns, the gate's crown jewel is the Quadriga, a sculpture of a chariot and 4 horses depicting Victoria, the Roman goddess of victory, created by Johann Gottfried Schadow. This detailed LEGO model was designed by architect Adam Reed Tucker.

The default box condition is “Minimal Shelf-Wear” unless there is a drop down option/menu. Here at Brickollector we want you to make an informed purchase so we have developed our own box condition grading system below. This way you can have an idea (with our best intentions) of what to expect when you receive your LEGO from us. We will pack your order to the best of our ability but occasionally LEGO boxes can get damaged from courier services.
Sometimes boxes may have price sticker or security sticker on them. They are NOT treated as "damaged" at Brickollector. We do not remove these in fear of causing damage to the box. Please note that we are not brave enough to classify boxes as perfect (even if we think they are) so we will only go as far as 9.5/10. If you are a box collector and want us to send you close up photos of the box we may be able to accommodate such requests on a case by case basis.
If seals have been broken due to Customs inspection we will describe the box condition as such. We also reduce the prices accordingly based on how much damage the box has sustained.
Box Condition | Rating Out Of 10 | Description |
Minimal Shelf-Wear | 9 to 9.5 | Excellent box condition with minimal (if any) scratches/creases/ worn corners. |
Minor Shelf-Wear | 7 to 8 | Overall very good box condition with some minor imperfections such as minor scratches/creases/ punctures/worn or squashed corners. May NOT be suitable for box collectors. |
Moderate Shelf-Wear | 5 to 6 | Average box condition with moderate damage to some parts of the box. There may be moderate scratches/ creases/punctures/worn or squashed corners. NOT for box collectors. |
Heavy Box Damage | 0 to 4 | Badly damaged box. Box may have water damage, or ripped open in some parts. However, inner bags will still be sealed and contents will be complete. Ideal for that brand new building experience without the brand new price tag (and throw that box away afterwards guilt-free). |
