- A bit of a side-step from what I usually do on this channel, but given my history with "Lego Titanic", I couldn't resist doing an in-depth build and analysis of these fantastic kits from HistoBrick. If you're interested, you can find them all right here:

I have to agree with the other sentiments, Tom. I remember watching your LEGO Titanic and Lusitania videos when I was 7, and they inspired me to make my own LEGO stop motion animations and furthered my interest in ships. It’s hard to believe that was so long ago but I’m grateful to see you still in this field of study.
Tom, your lego Titanic stop motion was my childhood. You got me into stop motion all these years later. Thank you.
Aww that’s nice 😊
If it was reddit, i would give you a Wholesome award right now!
Where’s the video tho. I wanted to check it out but I can’t find it
Exactly. He doesn't have adult content! Who would say that?!
@@Mobiom ?
We need to start a petition for that Lego Britannic movie. I've been waiting since I was 10, Let's see it Tom!
We need an actual good britannic movie in general not that awful one from the early 2000s
@@SoggyCroissants can hardly even call that a Britannic movie. Almost nothing about it was accurate to real events
@@Ekircher5 ikr
They probably tried to do something like James Cameron but failed miserably
@@Ekircher5 even as a rivet counter i liked it. To watch it you just have to put your enthusiast brain aside.
The Fitzgerald had 21 Cargo Hatches so, yeah. The model is accurate
Yes that is true I searched it up to

Same hear
Yea and it sunk from a wave and their were 29 or 39 people all men who died a massive wave almost a tsunami it then at Lake Superior in November in November it’s very stormy at Lake Superior it sunk from a wave at stern and went forward bow and went under ASAP then as it was going under the bow hit the bottom like Brittanic but it split when it hit the ground and all 29 or 39 men that died when the guys went to its wreck they knew all of the men died and they hit their bell from ship to honor all the men who died on that ship it was sooo tragic
Also they replaced the bell with a bell that has the name engraved on it of the people,who died it was hard cuz it was sunk due to waves but go visit the wreck and go to the museum and see the real bell
No way... that was the exact video that got me into Titanic when I was a kid, I used to watch it over and over.
I watched the Lusitania video a bunch too, I liked the concept of a survivor of Titanic being on another ship while it sank, which led me to the real story of Violet Jessop who wasn't on Lusitania, but did survive the Britannic.
My Titanic CZcams experience just came full circle, like 12 years later, I haven't even thought about that video in years.
Ironically, the Edmund Fitzgerald was also known as "The Titanic of the Great Lakes."
True
Before or after it sunk?
It's so beautiful I would buy those ships right now. Thanks for reigniting my interest in Lego again.
Ok, I nearly fell to the floor when I saw the price and you know what.
I'm buying it anyways. :)
@@FreedomLovingLoyalistOfficial it's worth it
Fun fact about the Fitz: she was longer than the place she went down in was deep. It's likely that her bow was forced down by waves, hit the bottom, broke apart at the surface, and sank like that. She lost a lot of length when she snapped as well. I personally think it was a combination of hull damage and rogue waves that did her in. She was 23 years old when she went down and I think she was in need of dry dock repairs around that time.
As for ship gender, they're referred to as female no matter what the name is. The German Navy, however, refers to their ships as males. It's just a tradition that seems to be fading just a little bit.
Same with HMHS Britannic
I wonder if some ships you have to refer to them as “they”.
@@danielplowright5701 I doubt it. So very much. Not every language has gender-neutral terms. Case is point: Spanish. Nothing but gendered terms. When looking a mix of male and female anything, they default to the male terms. Just how Spanish developed.
I live is MI
Like the sub Kursk, to think these ships were longer than the the water they sank in was deep. We don't usually get a visual example of how deep or shallow the sea is but the lengths of these vessels show that, make it seem not that much. Tragic, all of them tragic.
The Edmond Fitzgerald is my favorite ship and it looks spectacular!

Timeline of the RMS Titanic
March 31 1909- Her keel is laid down at Harland and Wolf shipyard
May 31 1911- She is launched and taken to be fitted out
March 31 1912- She is finished being fitted out and ready to sail
April 10 1912- She departs from Southampton,England for her maiden voyage the
April 14 1912- She hits an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean at 11:40pm

Love your videos
September 1 1985- She is finally found after 73 years
April 2 1912- She is put to her sea trials
Titanic was actually supposed to set sail on March 10th, but since Olympic had that collision with the HMS Hawk, Titanic had to give Olympic her propeller
I dont do anything like this anymore. I do, however, highly appreciate the times when i did, as they helped to pave the way for the maritime ship artworks of my own design for the last 26 years. They are important life skills for children and are just as good for seniors.
That titanic stop motion was my favorite thing ever when I was younger. I can’t believe that was you!
that Lego Titanic video is literally one of the first videos I saw on CZcams, still watch it every now and then for nostalgia's sake.
What was the videos name because I wanna see it if you can tell me
@@MSRT3-vr5qu czcams.com/video/krKHypMkpLA/video.htmlsi=Bswupj6tqdyrPb-F
Ok...hearing Tom say vibe with each other when talking about titanic and Carpathia is so funny
I legit had to pause the video so I could laugh lmao
3:20 I like them way more since their reusable while at LEGO you always have to fold them or something to reuse them so most people put them to waste and into the environment - thank you Histobrick :)
6:00 It wasn't goofy nor cringey, it was apart of our childhood :') and for me personally was one of my main inspirations for creating my own films!
Man when I was a kid I was a real titanic nerd. And I watched your lego titanic video again and again
Now I want to build the Titanic with Legos, thanks, Histo-Brick!
I just love anything and everything Titanic
Same
matty6ross im the same its so amazing
i like how the funnels on the titanic are done via a few technic elements. most ppl would just use cylinder pieces.
I love falling asleep to this video, it’s so calming and gives a welcoming atmosphere.
I remember being little when I discovered your titanic video. That was the main thing that introduced my love of vintage oceanliners and titanic.
I'm not gonna lie, these models look amazing and the detail is insane
“So you can put it next to the titanic so they can....vibe with each-other” lol I was laughing so hard!.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😇
Roblox
17:56 "They are at the same scale so you can put them together and they would... vIbE wItH eAcHoThEr." That had me dead instantly!
Same
Same here buster
It made me feel an emotion I can’t describe
These are some great looking Lego models for their scale!
I like your comment about kids not building plastic model kits anymore, That's all there was when I was a kid back in the 60's and 70's (no vid games) , And whether it was my carrier field in the Air Force or whatever i now do in my older age of life, I attribute my ability to easily fallow complicated instructions and paying attention to detail to all the model kits I enjoyed building in my youth. And now that I'm getting ready to retire, I'm looking forward after 30 some years in getting back into building model kits. I might even go after that big Trumpeter Titanic model.. Actually had a big Titanic kit for Christmas one year but I was way too young to do anything with it but sloppily glue it together then take it to our little plastic swimming pool and play hit the Ice Berg
Tom i am on my knees, please reupload the lego Titanic. Every day i used to religiously watch it, praying as it played on my TV. When i heard it was removed i was smashed into a deep religious depression.
Say what?
???
???
OMG Sooo! Glorious
I can't stop admiring the HMHS Britannic model
I’m jealous of your desk setup
Your Lego Titanic/Lusitania stop-motion videos are ADORABLE !!!
Hey you're The Guy from Titanic honor and glory!
Aatu Siitonen I know
Ayy lmao
This video is wholesome!! Interesting, educating and well narrated!!!
I have a whole lego city with working trains, cars, and the new lego titanic sitting at the back of the city!
I was actually going to buy one but when i saw $270 for one of these that is way to much for what your getting. I understand its an indie brand but that is just too much
Yeah they are so expensive
Evan Budrow yeah...,,
there are like 1000 pieces and lego has a policy for 80c a brick i think
Its $260... its just like "What"!?!?
It’s $250 on the histobrick website
Your voice is so smooth kinda soft spoken and relaxing
I haven't thought about that stop motion video in forever. That was one of my favorite videos back then
I've been more than active with Lego for the last 40 years and I have to say I'm quite shocked! Almost had me sold for fun kits for my son this Christmas. Then I saw the price...yikes! Purchasing a copy of the instructions and procuring the pieces on Bricklink would be a fraction of the cost. Perhaps that should be included as an option.
You better make Lego Britannic. ●___●
Yes the Edmund Fitzgerald had 21 cargo holds
They should make Queen Mary and the Mareutania class
Great video Tom, these are really cool models, will keep them in mind
Next they need to do a USS Arizona and the Bismarck. That’d be awesome!
Dang, Tom...Kabar! Now that's a knife! As someone who lives on the shores of Lake Erie, I'm tempted to purchase the Edmund Fitzgerald model. But instead, I'm heading on over to Steam to download a copy of 'Britannic: Patroness of the Mediterranean' for now. And very smooth background music, BTW.
I remember building custom LEGO Titanics as a kid. I always wanted an official LEGO Titanic set. I own the Oxford and Cobi kits do and this one definitely looks a lot more accurate.
I have the smaller of the two COBI kits, and I like it, but the bright orange funnels annoy me a little, and the fact that some of the pieces make an iceberg feels like questionable taste. (I can already hear half of the Internet's shining wits asking solicitously, "Too soon?")
Discovered today that you made thee Titanic and Lusitania stop motion films and I watched them to death as a kid and is probably why I'm a ship nerd today.
Thank you for the video Tom!
Watched the whole thing, very enjoyable.
Now you need to remake your lego animation with this kit, the meaning behind the backpack was a great mystery for my childhood.
YAAAAS! Especially since he has major knowledge of all the interiors and exteriors so he can make something really accurate
This is just so sick! I really enjoyed your video Tom! :)
Thanks to this video I now change my way of building thank you!
I am really fascinated about you seeing assemble these hundreds of small tiny pieces in place to build a ship, you are an expert meanwhile! I have a hobby too, which my colleagues call crazy, Diamond Painting, where you have to put hundreds and thousands of little pearls on a canvas, but it's intrigiung to me to see you handle like this, I think I would be lost even with the description in the booklets. Great!!!! I would love to see more of these. 👏
I Like your Lego Builds The Titanic, Britannic, Carpathia, Edmund Fitzgerald!
I have the Britannic on Steam! Runs a bit rough on my Mac but glad to have it. Great video. Thank you!
Just watched your documentary on the SS Atlantic....now lego builds ...you rock dude
Yay! Histobrick fixed everything you said they got wrong!
This is so nostalgic.
I loved this video so much lol
with the size of the edmund fitzgerald it looks like the seawise giant, great kits, I can't imagine sorting those out so that each kit has all the pieces
What a beautiful and awesome looking kits! I think i will get myself the Titanic and the Carpathia, like you said, the passengers need to be saved :)
Awesome!!!
I enjoyed watching you create these great ships from Lego!🚢⛴
That was you? I recall watching that LEGO Titanic video and the Lusitania video over and over! Heck, I remember trying to recreate scenes with my own LEGO bricks back in the day! Talk about small world..
Also, when he pulled out the knife i thought “OH GOSH HES GONNA DO A PHIL SWIFT!!!!!! AAAAAHHHHH”
I SAWED THIS BOAT IN HALF
Oh XD
Really wish your lego Titanic mini movie was still on CZcams.
Teachers can relax this guy is the new history teacher
There all $260 and one is $110
this is a must have for my none existing collection
I’ve seen your Lego Titanic movie when I was probably ten. It was really great, maybe one day you might recreate it with new Titanic model. Not only that, I also seen Lego Lusitania.
As for the videos being flagged, I bet the people who flagged them were jealous
Oh my god, I remember that Lego stop motion. Wow that’s so crazy
Tom= next LEGO CZcamsr??
They had me at ‘pieces come in a zip lock bag’!
Hopefully the reason these sets cost so much is to properly fund Histobricks until it becomes a larger business, because I know LEGO, and sets that have a piece count of around 700 tend to cost around $60-$80, not $260. I hope these can become more affordable, because I really think these models are excellent. But for $260, I could get the four sets from LEGO I really want and spare $40.
This is my favourite ship the Edmund Fitzgerald and I was looking it up. It does have 21 watertight, cargo hatches.
Y
Histobrick is now making minifig scale ship essentials (boilers, etc.)
Love your channel. You have an good voice and demeaner, which make it perfect for communicating information. You deserve way more than 22k subs.
Thank you!
another theory haw she sank is maybe cause of the three sisters. the three sisters are 3 massive wave that are very hard to maneuver out of the way. the three sisters are also possible to have sank the “Bannockburn”, a ghost ship that sank on the great lakes long ago.
I love history keep on going!
Keep up the great work!
Love the music used
26:02 that’s what I was thinking
Nice! Cool Legos!
Thank you so much!
I like the whole historical lego thing. Even at 37, I would totally still do it if it wasn't in the hundreds of fucking dollars to do. Like holy shit guy are they fucking serious with these numbers?
Wait, that LEGO Titanic stop motion was YOU?!?! "Hello I'm your cabin neighbor"
When he said "Great for kids,ship enthusiasts and lego enthusiasts i was like i fit the three catagories
It's not just kids who like LEGO. LEGO now has an adult art line. There are portraits (ie. The Beatles) and houseplants (ie. the Bird of Paradise.)
As of now, Histobrick has offered 4 Cunard liners, those being:
Lusitania
Mauretania (with black hull)
Carpathia
Queen Mary
thanks for building that
I’ve always wanted one
Edmund Fitzgerald's three central cargo holds were loaded through 21 watertight cargo hatches, each 11 by 48 feet (3.4 by 14.6 m) of 5⁄16-inch-thick (7.9 mm) steel. Originally coal-fired, her boilers were converted to burn oil during the 1971-72 winter layup.
Very cool
So Calming listened to this while making my model on fusion
These are so cool! Make a new Lego Titanic short using this ;)
Good job building the legos I love them
i like bricks the red ones especially
I love this
I remember that Lego Titanic movie you made.
“Hello I’m your cabin neighbor!”-Alec
Could you do a commentary on the titanic film you made 15 years ago ? Its nostalgic for me and a lot of other people
"now we have a plethora of plates to place in place...That sentence made sense you know" hahahahaha that gave me a good laugh. I had absolutely no idea that companies were allowed to take pieces of Lego, build their own kits, and then sell them. I'm sure they have agreements and contracts and all that jazz, but that is SO cool! I'm only 13 minutes in, I'm so stoked to see what the SS Edmund Fitzgerald looks like! when I was young my dad would play me the Edmund Fitzgerald song by Girdon Lightfoot all the time and tell me the story of what happened. I miss that. RIP dad, I love you. on a lighter note, this is a bad ass channel dude!
omg Titanic honor and glory and Lego? today is a good day!
