MOC - Sanctum Sanctorum 48x48

This MOC is a modification of the official set 76218 Sanctum Sanctorum.


The complete version including fully designed interior requires a total of 7506 parts (+2 sticker sheets), depending on the amount of official sets you own you would need:

• 0 sets: 7506 parts (6543 parts if you exclude the 'optional' interior of the second floor
• 1 set: 5142 additional parts (4173 parts excluding interior 2nd floor)
• 2 sets: 3584 additional parts (2659 parts excluding interior 2nd floor)
• (I have also included different XML parts list for bricklink, to make it easier to order parts via Bricklink. Excluding parts if you  already own 1 or 2 official sets, of if you want to include/exclude the optional second floor interior).

Dimensions: H: 36.5cm, W: 35cm, D: 31.5cm
(Dimensions Including (MILS) 48 x 48 baseplate: H: 38.5cm, W: 38.4cm, D: 38.4cm)


Because of all the features I wanted to include, to make it more accurate to the New York Sanctum of the MCU movies, I had to build it on a 48 x 48 baseplate. This allowed me to design a custom main lobby and giant staircase that's more similar to the one from the Doctor Strange movies (and Spider-Man's No Way Home). While also leaving enough room for minifigure accessibility.
Unlike the original set, this MOC consists of 4 seperate floors, which are all connected by proper staircases.

Ground Floor:


The ground floor has an extra hallway, which was inspired by the layout of the New York Sanctum from the movies, the left section leads to a false door which is supposed to lead to Kamar-Taj. The right section of the hallway leads to the side entrance and to the kitchen. The main entrance leads to the main hall with the iconic giant staircase. The top section of the staircase is removable and allows for more accessibility of the kitchen and the removable toilet.



First Floor:

The giant staircase continues on to the first floor with the same type of banisters on the balcony on both sides. I incorporated the portal door from the original set and modified it to make it visually more pleasing by hiding the side walls of the tan and white panels when you view the different portals. If you continue on to the balcony you will reach the library, with a custom removable wall, which works with the other removable walls from the original set. In the back there are 2 rooms, the one on the right can be used as storage for minifigure accessories or to store another removable wall. The room on the left has a staircase which leads up to the second floor.



Second Floor:

For the second floor there are 2 options in the instruction manual which you can follow. I have also included different XML parts list for bricklink including and excluding the optional second floor interior.
Option A is an empty room, which can be decorated however the builder wants. Option B has instructions to build a fully decorated living room, 2 bedrooms and a bathroom.
912 of the additional 3561 parts (if you own 2 official sets) are used for Option B. The stairs in the center of the room lead to the attic.



Attic:

The attic has enough space to display almost all of the accessories (relics) from the original set, the left corner of the attic/roof couldn't be mirrored because one of the parts never has been produced in the Sand Green colour, that's why I replaced it with different bricks to try and mimic the right corner. The roof is similar to the original design, with the exception of the doorway leading to the attic.
