LEGO SET 21058 - Alternate build | Great Pyramid of Giza
The Great Pyramid of Giza is one of humanity’s most enduring architectural marvels—and with LEGO® Set 21058-1, you’ve got the perfect palette of sandstone-colored slopes and plates to reimagine it in countless ways. Whether you’re inspired by ancient engineering, micro-world storytelling, or modern mash-ups, the parts in this set invite you to step beyond the iconic silhouette and build something uniquely your own.
Imagine transforming the classic pyramid into a cut-away diorama, revealing hidden chambers and secret passageways—complete with minifig explorers, torches, and ancient hieroglyphs. Or repurpose the distinctive slopes to create a cluster of mini-pyramids, evoking a vast necropolis under a setting sun. Take your build into another dimension by fusing Egyptian geometry with modern skyscraper elements, or even blend it into a desert micro-world with oases and caravan trails. By breaking down the monolithic structure into modular sections, you can explore new scales—from towering monuments to palm-tree-landscaped courtyards.
Below are five standout alternate builds (“MOCs”) that showcase the breadth of possibilities using only (or nearly only) the pieces in Set 21058-1.
