Fortunately, were I to cave, and assuming I could find it shipping from somewhere closer than the UK, the Jekca Colosseum is only about a foot across and 6" tall:

Footprint is definitely a concern for me, as our house is very small - only about 900 square feet.

Looking at the two Colosseums, I have to say that Jekca looks more like Lego than Lego.
Ave, Jekca, morituri te salutant!

Six feet…a little over half way there!•• Bill's cryptic reference is to my recent interest in finding out what it might cost to commission a full sized replica of the original 11 foot model.
