$100 is a lot for legos, but I really want the FallingWater one. Do want do want do want.

By my estimation, it would be about 8"x4". Not very impressive. edit: okay the copy says it's 10" long. That's not even remotely at the same scale of lego buildings that actual lego men inhabit.

Here's the lego police station I had as a kid:



The dimensions of the baseplate are 32 pegs squared. That's twice the area of the Fallingwater model. These lego men would be gigantic in comparison!

I don't why, but this sounds both random and hilarious.

Legos have become more expensive and complicated than when i was a child. Building a house back then with lego wasa major thing for me but now its nothing.
