This small model is a 1:110 scale recreation of Boeing's X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle. The model consists of just 28 pieces that cost around $3 to buy (see the "How to buy the bricks" guide below).
Click on the name of the rocket to build the compatible Atlas V 501 model that launched five of the X-37B missions, as well as the Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy models that have launched one mission each so far.
The X-37B is a reusable robotic spacecraft built by Boeing and operated by the US Air Force. It has been launched 7 times to date, with its first orbital mission launching in April 2010 on an Atlas V. It has also launched once each on a Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy.

How to buy the bricks
I recommend buying the bricks required for the model from Bricklink.com, which is the largest online marketplace for LEGO® parts sellers.
There are other alternatives, like the official LEGO® Pick a Brick site, but they rarely have all the required pieces and it's often more expensive there.
The process to buy from Bricklink is easier than it seems, and is explained thoroughly in this step-by-step guide to help you:
- After buying the product, you need to download the folder named "Part lists" and unzip it.
- Next go to Bricklink.com and log in or create an account (it's very easy to set up).
- Click on your Profile tab in the top right corner and go to "My Wanted Lists".
- Click on the blue "Create New List" button and "Create Wanted List" after having given it a suitable name.
- Click on the upload button on the menu to the right and drag and drop the part list you want to buy. Then click the blue "Verify items" button, followed by the "Add to Wanted List" button at the bottom of the page.
Repeat step 5 for each part list you want to order. - [Optional step if you only want new pieces] Select all the pieces and change their "Condition" to "New" (needs to be repeated for each page). Note that this will lead to a higher price and the risk of some parts being unavailable. The default option gives you a price around the estimate and will include both new and used bricks.
- Next click the green "Buy All" button to get to the buy page. Here you should select the store location to your country or continent for lower shipping costs.
- Proceed by clicking the blue "Auto-select" button, uncheck the box in the pop-up and click "Start".
- This will give you a list of stores whose orders together will include all of the pieces in your wanted list. Confirm that all the pieces are included by clicking the "Wanted Items" tab to the left and control that there aren't any pieces left there.
- If you are happy with the selection and price, click "Create carts", followed by "Checkout" for each individual store and buy the pieces!
(If you are not happy with the price or if you're missing any pieces, you can click "Remove All" and redo the auto-selection with different settings like expanding the region your buying from)
If you're having any issues with ordering your bricks, don't hesitate to send us a message through the "Contact us" tab in the menu and we'll do out best to help!
