    I love how the set celebrates the ship design itself, not the tragedy. It doesn’t have a break point in half gimmick or come with an iceberg or something. It’s all about this ship’s beauty.

      Actually this set appears to separate at the same location as the expansion joints on the titanic, and the ship separated at the rear expansion joint just behind the third funnel. If you look at the sterns wreckage you will see the massive engines still standing and this model separates at that point. However the small section just under the third funnel was ripped to shreds during separation so you'd have to disassemble this model a little to make it at that point during the sinking. However I completely agree that showing her in all her beauty prior to the sinking is fantastic. I've wanted this set for 30 years and can't wait to get started.

      @@kurdtray Titanic snapped between the 2nd and 3rd funnel, specifically in front of the 3rd, nearly exactly in half and well before the engine blocks. Remember that the stern wreckage had the shell plating sheared off at crush depth and doesn’t accurately represent the break. If the break was internal technically from the rear expansion joints behind the 3rd funnel (I’m not sure that’s exactly where they were but I take your word for it), then there must have been at least 100 feet of shell plating ahead of the break since the visual break was much closer to center ship.
      It seems Lego went out of their way to avoid the exact breaking point by splitting into thirds. I wouldn’t have a particular objection if they did, but I think it’s pretty classy that they didn’t. I think we’ve all made or dreamt of Lego Titanic Mocs and it’s still amazing it exists now 👌

    • @belfast4893
      @belfast4893 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@pietrooliani3251 Actually it would be the other way around.
      The 1/200 Titanic base kit is cheaper than the lego Titanic (around 400 usd vs 629 usd)
      However, like any decent modeller would do, the Pontos set / MK1 / KA detail up set (250-500 usd) will be required. One of those detail up sets alone is already the price of the kit itself.
      So in the end, excluding paint and tools (since it’s 1/200, expect paint cost to be hefty) the price of an accurate trumpeter titanic would far exceed the lego titanic which requires nothing extra.

  • @kentslocum
    @kentslocum 3 ปีที่แล้ว +126

    I think comparing this set to the "LEGO set with the most pieces" is the wrong way to judge the size of the Titanic. Nearly all of the World Map pieces are just tiny 1x1 round tiles, and not all of them are used in the build, since some are reserved for an alternate build. I think weight should be the real indicator of a set's size, since a set like the Titanic has fewer (but much larger) pieces, which easily outweigh a set like the World Map.

      @@22wabbit So what you are telling me is that the first thing I should know about lego is they are inaccurate and charge ridiculous price for it ? Lego technic sets seems to a much better investment…
      I’ve seen people done scratch-builds with lego of ocean liners at a SIMILaR scale to this Titanic. Let’s just say the scratch builds ones are much more accurate than this official set. The lifeboats davits look much better, the bottom hull is in a kids more accuracy’s shape. Same material, but result is day and night…
      But you are right about one thing, if you plan on buying this set just for the sake of
      cannibalizing parts to do you own scratch build model, then it might be worth it. Otherwise, in my perspective, it would be a waste of money to get a inaccurate looking model.

    This has to be my new favorite lego set. With the ucs falcon and ISD as second and 3rd followed by the 1989 batmobile. Honestly excited about the AT-AT also and been waiting for the ucs version for years. However I habe always loved the titanic and dreamed of it being a lego set. This ship and a Nimitz class air craft carrier, which lego will probably never make.

  • @legiontheatregroup

    Great review. I believe the reciprocating steam motors not driving the center propellor is accurate; the center propellor was driven by a steam turbine I seem to recall.

    • @ruffnut1
      @ruffnut1 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Correct. The turbine used the exhaust steam from the main engines.
      But it only worked in forward gear, as no reversing gearbox was fitted.
      So, when the ship went to full astern, after the Iceberg was sighted, only the two outer propellers were actually providing power.

  • @maxedison8259

    LEGO models of the past (1960's/70's) have always been rather blocky, rather like pixelated images so, the bigger the model, the less blocky it looks. However, today's 'specialist tiles', which allow smooth surfaces, curves and more complex structures to be achieved, have elevated LEGO from a toy aimed at children, to stimulate their minds and encourage imaginative development and building skills, into something far more permanent. Those first basic brick sets we had, as kids, were purely for 'make a break', and that is the heart of LEGO. Now though, we make a set, and tend to keep it made, unless forced to dismantle it for a specific reason, and no wonder. What a stunning model this is and, even though the Millienium Falcon is also astounding, the Titanic gives us the fact versus the fiction. I'm thinking of buying this next year, but keeping it in its box as I do not have the space for it at present, which is the same reason I haven't built my Star Wars Destroyer yet. I was recently thrilled to receive the Saturn V model, and it nows sits on my window sill (shelf), as its footprint is minimal, but you cannot tell it's a LEGO model, unless you look at it carefully. I'm definitely getting the Lunar Model set soon. Having grown up in the exciting rush of the space age, I would love to see a LEGO Vostok, or Soyuz rocket set, but I won't get greedy. Ok, time to start saving up for my Titanic model in the New Year. I can't wait to get my hands on this gorgeous LEGO set!

Still waiting to build...gonna be my (and my daughter's) Christmas present. It's funny how the booklet shows the Statue of Liberty and notes it's the same scale. Very compelling to purchase also....... However, I didn't commit until I saw the mod for the face using available pieces.....very cool indeed as a pair. My daughter asked why I wanted the statue too and I explained that it was the original destination of the ship and that gives it more significance. Awesome TC, Thankyou for the ultimate design!

    Titanic's 4th Funnel was for steam not smoke it also went to show how powerful the ship was because people back then equated the number of Stacks with the power of the ship. Also Titanic only sailed from England the company that owned The White Star Line was an American company. The 2 English Flags show were it sailed from the US flag showed who owned her.

    • @ruffnut1

      I’m going to add onto this to explain it to people who are confused: Yes, the US had 48 states at the time of the disaster, but because of the Flag Act of 1818, (Which kept thirteen stripes for the original colonies and stars for each state) the flag only officially gets new stars on July 4, which has caused the flag to jump up by as many as five stars at a time.

It would be one massive undertaking for advanced LEGO builders and a challenge, too.
