Based on one person building the set for the first time, following the original instructions and using numbered bags where supplied.

This range is neither a statistical interval nor a limit: your build may take less or more time.

How we estimate times · sources and method

Editorial assessment of the first illustrated arrangement: The FIFA World Cup trophy becomes a gold-coloured sculpture on a green display base. The green section separates the trophy from its support and echoes the original’s colour contrast. A first build following the instructions, including normal piece finding; an adult may help when needed. Breaks and subsequent play are excluded. No verified timed build: indicative values with substantial variation.

Sources do not always specify the builder’s experience. The three experience bands are our editorial assessment, based on the complexity of the set and individual accounts where available.

Beyond the set

The stories, places and inventions behind your build.

An Italian creation

The modern World Cup trophy was designed by Milanese sculptor Silvio Gazzaniga.

Read the full story

FIFA selected Milan sculptor Silvio Gazzaniga’s design from 53 proposals across seven countries. Two athletes raise the world in an eighteen-carat gold sculpture. Its ascending lines express the energy of victory, giving the trophy a visual narrative beyond recording winners.

FIFA

Since the 1974 tournament

West Germany was the first national team to lift the new trophy, at the 1974 World Cup.

Read the full story

West Germany first lifted the new trophy in 1974. A replacement was required after Brazil retained the Jules Rimet trophy following its third victory in 1970. The modern original stays with FIFA instead, while champions receive a replica to keep.

Saxophone tone and space between phrases suggest an unhurried landscape. This is an atmospheric reading for natural forms and views, without assigning an undocumented geographical setting.

A build to spread over several sessions: choose the more understated option when you want the instructions to take centre stage. The music does not set your pace.
