- This is the AliExpress version of Legos Titanic. I go through the build and review it afterwards with my genuine thoughts on whether this kit is worth paying £120 for

Great to see you back with a new video.
Great to see you back with a new video.
I loved it, great content, great commentary. I could see just how much pleasure, this project brought to you.
Thank you for sharing and bringing joy to us.
Ps. Hope the thumb is better.
Paul.
Hi Paul, thanks. This was great fun, quite relaxing too. Problem is, I dont know what to do next...
Hey, Great to see you back! We've missed you over here in New England. We've followed you through a couple of car restorations, your apartment refurb and even the clock episode. So, I can hardly wait to watch this latest adventure.
Hi Albert, thank you.
Ive been feeling guilty about not uploading anything for such a long time 😄
Hello Johnny,
That looks great fun... I like the idea of tinkering away to build it, thanks for sharing.
Take care.
Paul,,
I think people like us, who are mechanically minded, particularly enjoy these build videos.
I came to this video for the Aliexpress Titanic, but I stayed for the charming commentary and review. Your editing isn't bad at all! Great video, keep it up man.
Oh wow! I woke up to this lovely comment this morning 😃 Thank you.
I'm in the middle of doing an Ali Express version of the Ferrari Daytona. That should be uploaded in the next week or so.
Johnny
Looked absolutely amazing today, your a genius mate, there is nothing your mind and hands can't do.
Thank Lee
Absolutely brilliant
Nice review! Thanks a lot!
Glad you liked it.
Thank you
Thank you for the detailed review of this set. I'm no lego enthusiast but I want to start building some of these as a hobby. You sold me on this one. Thank you!
I know a few people have bought this kit and thoroughly enjoyed it. you will too
Great video! I was considering getting this set, and now I’m really strongly considering it.
You will love it!
Thank you for the video. I’ve just completed the AliExpress Titanic (not predicated on this video) and like you, found the experience to be excellent. The package arrived in about a week. It had 23 large numbered bags in it, which matched the 23 major stages in the instruction booklet. Everything went together well and there were no missing parts. You are right about the instructions though - the copy version, being much condensed, makes distinguishing some small parts really difficult. The PDF would have been better, although I reverted to using the Lego App as all the parts and colours were in the pack I got were pretty much identical. So, following initial concerns (about whether it would be delivered, whether there would be problems - all of which were unfounded), I have no regrets and am delighted with the end result. Like you, I’m looking for the next now. Thanks again…
There was always that anticipation with AliExpress that either the goods might not turn up or they might be faulty. I have ordered so many things from there now and not once had a problem. Since building the Titanic, I have built a Ferrari Daytona (also posted on my channel) and now am in the middle of putting together the Grand Piano, 21323. Trouble is, all these things are so large, I dont know where to put them all 😄
Great video, I ordered this based on your great review. Thanks!
You won't be disappointed. You'll enjoy many hours putting it together.
Johnny
how did it turn out for you?
Thanks for making this video I’ll be picking one from AliExpress and I’m glad you enjoyed building it I hope I get mine in less time then u had to wait lol take care.
Fantastic video, very informative and entertaining. And with the challenge of a thumb injury. 👍 thanks
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thumb better now 😁
Very interesting, I might get one myself.
Take a look on Ali Express, theres some really good car and motorbike kits on there too
Yeah I had a look

Literally finished my genuine Lego titanic last night other than getting it in the Lego box in the 3 stages makes me wonder what I spent that extra £500 on!? I can’t see much difference to yours at all it’s so identical! Only thing I did notice is the random white brick on the rudder but other than that brilliant it’s a joy to build! Already got the light kit to go in now too!
Its a shame that Lego dont reduce the price of their kits to make them more affordable. I've just finished the Ferrari Daytona SP3 kit from AliExpress (uploaded vid) again, its a fantastic piece of kit which only cost me £60 delivered compared to £320 in the shops here.
Aside from that, isnt it an amazing satisfying hobby? The lights are really going to set it off.
Just found your channel! Loved the video, you should have a look at Cobi sets as well, they do all sorts of ships and boats in this scale too and cheaper than lego.
I just took a look at Cobi's website. Theyve got some unusual things. Quite interesting
Brilliant Job Johnny. Hope the thumb is better.
Thanks Rob, the thumb is doing well although a little mishapened 😆
Great review, has given me a good heads up. I have just received mine, only has an instruction booklet. I don’t suppose you have a link to a PDF?
HI, Let me have your email address and I will send you a copy
Great video! In case anyone is planning on buying one of these kits, they are so accurate to the ‘original’ you can actually follow the Lego instructions on their video.
That is such a good point. Thank you
honestly mate I been considering getting the AliExpress version for my girlfriend when I visit her as she loves the titanic, and it would be fun to build together, I had some doubts that it wouldn't be too great quality but after watching this I'm honestly surprised, definitely going to gift it to her.
You really wont regret it. I'm at a loss since I finished mine. So much so, that I'm thinking of ordering a the lambo kit from Ali Express. I truly believe these are original kits that have been debadged.
This video is so good, that I watched it 6 times. (^_^) keep it up dude.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. I also put together a Ferrari kit too. Heres the link.

Just saw it, my favorite part was the seats!
I'm glad that your Titanic turned out all right. There could've easily been pieces missing, the wrong pieces included or pieces in the wrong colours,
but it seems to have worked out for you. However, that's not to say that buying a fake Titanic is always a safe option.
There's a lot of luck involved.
Both me and my brother built the Titanic from Ali express and both were fine. As you said, maybe that's just lucky. They're great kits
Great video do you think you'll do another kit?
Coincidently, I ordered a Ferrari kit a couple of days ago. I'll put a video together for that when it arrives
Hello. Can you send me link to the manual pdf? Will appreciate
Just got ours today and looking forward to building it 🙌🏻. Any chance please of getting the link to the pdf building file 👍🏻
sure, just email me and ill send one over to you
Thank you but I cannot find your email address 🤦🏼♂️
Link da compra, por favor?
I have just received mine, only has an instruction booklet. I don’t suppose you have a link to a PDF?
Sure, let me have your email address and I'll forward it on to you
I got one from Temu, got the actual box but unfortunately, I got 3 massive bags with more bags in them. Tha KS to you I understand the numbers on them
Oh well done. I hope you have fun putting it all together
I would love to buy one for my self but theres alot of duplicates on aliexpress could you possibly give me a link to the listing he got it from?
I'm afraid I dont have the link as my brother bought it for me as a gift. However, he did say that the one he ordered for me wasnt from the same seller as his one. So I think you should be ok with whichever one you order.
@@treetopspider ah alright ill just hope for the best lol thanks for the reply:)
@@joscious. Hi, I’m the person that bought that from Ali, I also bought another from a different seller and another two sets. Much like EBay if you look at the sellers ratings you pretty much can’t go wrong, make sure the piece amount and dimensions tally and you will be ok. Ali express are strict on who can sell and if you pay by PayPal and are not happy you will get a full refund. The second kit was a few days late and I messages the seller, he was prompt on reply and assured me it was on its way, two days later it arrived.
@@keithyianni7389 okay thats very helpful thanks :)
Hi there, mine has come with a paper booklet and its a liitle small. Dont suppose you could send me a link to the PDF file
Hi,
Email me at treetopspidr@gmail.com
and I'll send a copy over to you
I bought it to but where can i get the pdf ?
Apparently Ive been told in the comments that it can be downloaded from the Lego website somewhere. I havent checked for that though
Im looking on aliexpress and there are so many different ones. The same seller has one up for £120 and one for £105 but its the same exact description and product? I dont get it.
There could be two reasons. It could be that for £120 you get a hard copy instruction booklet as opposed to a pdf. The other reason could be £105 is plus shipping which would bring it up to £120
@@treetopspider Theyre both free shipping. One says pdf manual and the other says nothing, so it could potentially be the instructions but it doesn’t specify.
Im trying to do as much research as possible before i go ahead and buy one. Dont want to make a mistake and buy from a dodgy seller.
Its weird because i see some have a lot of products sold but their reviews arent shown, so im not sure who’s best to go with. Might just have to take the chance at this point.
I found one for £140 that seems to have the best reviews and customer service whereas the others have some negative reviews about delivery, missing pieces and piece quality. I might have to go with the more expensive one as it seems less of a gamble.
where can i get the PDF ? do you have a link?
I have been told you can download it directly from the Lego website
now put the lighting and sound kit on it. it will change the whole thing for you :)
Organise bricks by colour and get bigger shallower sorting trays and your life will be a lot easier
That sounds like a good tip from a seasoned lego builder. Thank you
Can you send me the link please, I'm thinking of buying it
My brother bought this for me but if you just go to Ali Express and type in 'Lego Titanic 9090pcs' a page will come up with several sellers. I'd personally choose a seller that has had more sales even if its slightly more expensive.
@@treetopspider ok But can you send the link
Ali Express had the opportunity to fix Lego’s biggest mistake with the design: making it modular.
What’s wrong with the official one being modular?
