With the reveal of 75331 The Razor Crest, the top 10 biggest LEGO sets have welcomed a new entry and waved goodbye to 75978 Diagon Alley. As always, this list is in order of their piece count, though you could argue that the set in top spot isn’t the biggest in terms of volume. For those who look at this list in terms of volume. you could always consider removing that model and inserting 75978 Diagon Alley at the bottom of the list instead.
