- The LEGO Group has revealed an authentic replica of the most famous ship of all time, the RMS Titanic. For the first time, fans can now recreate the luxury liner in detailed LEGO® brick form, 110 years since it was launched in Belfast in 1911.
The LEGO Titanic is one of the longest and largest LEGO models to date, made up of 9,090 pieces, making it a truly immersive building challenge for LEGO fans and budding historians alike.
As well as its sheer size, the Titanic was known for its unrivalled grandeur, which has been faithfully captured in the set. Beneath the unmistakable exterior of the LEGO Titanic, there are several interior rooms to explore including the First-Class grand staircase which spans six decks and the Jacobean-style dining saloon which was located on the ship’s D deck.

The "Titanic ended is disaster, this set is tempting fate" schtick is only mildy funny the first time. Repeating it for 5 minutes is just dull..
Cheers for watching the whole five minutes though!
Thank you. I’ll heed to your warnings. I’m obsessed with both Lego and Titanic. So I’ll be careful to where I display it as well as making sure it doesn’t break.
Put it in a display case...that will take care of the dust problem as well as any prying fingers. With an investment like this, it deserves a proper case just like any other decent ship model.
same
Ahoy
It looks stunning! Not something I can see myself purchasing. But, I can see its appeal to fans of bigger builds and of ships too!
The designer has done a cracking job and I like how the ship breaks apart to reveal the lower decks and engines.
Just wait till people start making stop motion films with this set
You could always convert it to her sister ship the RMS Olympic “old reliable” which survived a war and never sank to help with the anxiety 😸✌️. I’m hoping to see people change the colour of the bricks to white to also represent the HMHS Britannic (which as you know also sank, but was struck by a German mine). But good points. I’m such a Titanic and ocean liner fanatic in general that if I were to skip this set I think I’d regret it for the rest of my life 🙊. I’m gonna have to get a glass cabinet specifically to display this set so that guests and cats can’t destroy it too easily haha. This is just an insanely accurate and good looking set that most guests would probably not even realize it’s lego at first. I was planning on building a more conventional model of the Titanic or Olympic but I’ll get this instead. Expensive but such a dream come true that to me it’s well worth it. They even cared enough to get B deck’s windows looking like the Titanic’s specific pattern, they looked different on the Olympic and Britannic. I only wish that they had included a white star line flag as well. But that’s not difficult to add.
I thought about that idea of modifying the Titanic set to create the Olympic and Britannic, but it would be so darn expensive though.
@@nicholashunt4472 yeah especially the Britannic would be expensive. But it could be something you do little by little. For the Olympic you could make the important changes first, the A deck and B deck windows. I’ll keep mine as the Titanic though. You’re right, the set is so massive that it’s expensive to make these changes. Could also be a mission to do with friends collectively for a CZcams video. I’d like to see if I could just make a minor change to the B Deck at the bow end. The A deck windows there have the iconic curved bit but lego decided against it on the B deck, probably because they wanted to have that part appear as if it had railing or whatever you call it. But that’s always been my favorite part of the Titanic’s look, that the Britannic shared. They had the double curvy bits at the end of the A deck and B deck windows. At least that mod would be cheap to do but not sure how to do it. And to add a white star line flag. Maybe there’ll be some CZcamsr with a great solution for that 🤔 sorry if I described that poorly
@@lassesuurmunne8340 You described everything well. I used to be obsessed with the Titanic, and haven’t studied it in years, but I know exactly what you’re talking about. I definitely agree that it would be a fun project to do over time. The Britannic will definitely be the most tricky, since I would have to incorporate the green stripe and Red Cross patterns. That being said, I know it’s not impossible to do. The first thing I would need to do, however, is study the Titanic set itself, and see how those modifications would work. I did the same thing with my Lego 10030 UCS Star Destroyer.
Since the nameplate is just keys from the typewriter set, you could easily get it to say OLYMPIC or BRITANNIC
The idea of Britannic sinking in WWI terrifies me. Imagine being an injured soldier thinking you’re being taken to safety, only to be slightly concerned that the medical ship looks exactly like that famous ship that sank, and then it DOES
0:56 RMS Olympic: I was first!! 😭
The set itself is huge, I have the Cobi set, to which it was really huge, few missing things on board like the yellow line that runs between the black hull and the white superstructure.
Other than that, it's really amazing. Both the LEGO and the Cobi companies did a real good job replicating the ill-fated liner, and the finished product is definitely worth the reward. I don't let anyone touch it or let my two adorable black cats anywhere near the liner without me near it. It's even a great conversation piece as well
i also have the cobi set
I wouldn’t say Titanic was an engineering hubris issue. Olympic had a marvelous career and Britannic was felled by war. Titanic was Murphy’s Law at its finest.
I recognise that The Ice Castle picture 😂 Great video, well done!
3:20 well I don’t think so it was a pleasure and easy build for me
I plan of getting this, would be epic if they also made lego olympic and britannic,
Literally the only thing this video tells you is this:
“The set shows you how the designers would want it to be remembered” I guess that’s a bad thing?
It might break and it’d be hard to put back together.
Otherwise it’s super repetitive and doesn’t make a point.
I wish lego make more historical set
use a light set and its perfect and more complicaTED
I wonder how long it will take for someone to MOC it in its sinking and breaking in half phase since the ship comes apart around where it split
Or if someone will MOC it in its sunken version with the two parts torn apart, flattened, and destroyed phase
Thinking about getting it. I’m not really into Lego, but I have loved the Titanic since I first learned about it as a kid. (And not so much because it struck an iceberg and sank on its maiden voyage; I’d be interested in a model of the Queen Mary, too.) The Cameron movie? Sure, I enjoyed it (mostly because it brought this historical fact “to life”), but why anyone would assume this model has anything to do with the film is beyond me. This is Titanic, the 1912 ship - not Titanic, the 1997 movie.
I dropped the bow with lightened 😩
The only thing LEGO omitted is the iceberg!
Place an ice cube in front of the ship (until it melts).
Well, you could just break it up into the 3 sections if you need to move it.
That would be the best way to do it!
i was putting the stands on and it just broke so i’m trying to fix it rn
I share your anxiety. Because Lego are a respectful company, they did not include an iceberg, nor design the ship to split down the middle. In fact, they actively avoid any reference to What Happened to the Titanic, presenting it as nothing more than a model of a beautiful ship.
And yet, it is only BECAUSE she sank that the Lego model exists in the first place. There would be no demand, or at least significantly less demand, for this model if it hadn’t been at the centre of one of the greatest tragedies in history. This set owes its existence to that tragedy, but will not acknowledge it out of respect. A weird paradox.
Well the ship broke between the 3rd en 4th funnel so the 3rd section of the build is on the breaking point of the actual ship
I've often thought this. Had the ship sailed through a normal career for 30 approx years, very few of us would have any idea of it's existence.
Also, if they had rammed that berg head on, they would likely have stayed afloat, due to the bulkhead design. But of course the instinct was to try and miss. I think we would probably all try and do that.
Buying this set and keeping it in the box, would probably increase its value. Another difficult thing to do!
Sorry about being a Titanic nerd. But the Titanic was never actually down right said to be unsinkable by the company who built her white star lines. Instead it was changed similar to Chinese whispers by rumour about a line that white star did say which was that the Titanic was as unsinkable as possible for the time. Not down right unsinkable.
didnt they say that the titanic was a lifeboat herself?
👍🏻
Idc. Im a big Titanic enthousiats. And i am gonna be getting it one way or another
i finished it. only to take it down because of a lack of space to put it. cause that set is humongous
Ima about to get my own room with a lockable door so no one can touch it
Wow that was talking for the sake of talking
If only it allowed you to break the set in thirds so you van easily transport it and if it falls wont be as hard to fix.
It does split in to 3. Has 3 lockable sections. Just turn the locking rods and bingo. Suppose to be a real sturdy well designed model 👌
@@07989074102 yea I was using sarcasm haha. He said somewhere in the vid how it is impossible to move it once its fully built so I was poking fun as his cristim so it does have ways to break it apart and move it
@@GoodAtStuf ah, ok. 😃 I watched TC’s review of it. Just made me want it even more 👍
@@07989074102 haha yeah if only I wasn't broke 😂
@@GoodAtStuf same here, but I will find a way 😂😂
Dislike ratio makes me feel good to know I’m not the only one
This video did nothing other than reveal the titanic
What's that red thing on his forehead
Please have in mind that maybe in some years the darkred pieces and the reddish brown pieces could get brittle. Ans then the titanic isn’t that great any more. Please show us your model in some years again.
I'd love to have this set but it's too big, too expensive, I have a child in my house, I always have a beagle
What's next? The Lego Hindenburg
That would actually be an amazing set, it's been a while since we've had a good airship/zeppelin!
All I want is a Led Zeppelin mosaic like the Beatles one.
Brick Fanatics hard to imagine given it was made as an act of nazi propaganda and had swastikas engraved into it. Would create a lot of controversy
150$$ from China. Identical brick for brick (without the Lego logo). Why?
Quite simply because it's a counterfeit. The Chinese manufacturer has not paid the costs of design, promotion, distribution, packaging...
What's more, there's generally not the same level of quality control, whether in terms of the precision of the parts (which can be felt on disassembly and reassembly), or the quality of the plastic (aging).
Don't pretend to be naive. Those who buy these pirate copies know perfectly well that they are stealing from Lego. But for them, stealing becomes morally acceptable as soon as it can be done without risk...
yawn@@alainvillesuzanne8613
iceberg not included
Are you complaining just to complain…?
I will not be able to buy this 😞
me two
There’s something missing, the iceberg!
Yay I was the 100th person to dislike the video Also ps I think you have something on your forehead.
Naff video
Oh lord this is bad - you have to try REALLY hard to get more dislikes than likes.
I probably won't buy it because of it's countless inaccuracies.
It irks me that you can't spell "inaccuracies" ... and I did buy it.
