LEGO Creator Expert 10294 Titanic is probably the most ambitious set of all time - but will it leave you with a sinking feeling or, like Celine Dion’s heart, will it go on and on?A ship as infamous, historic and well-known as the RMS Titanic needs no introduction, but here’s one anyway: it was a seemingly unsinkable ship that did in fact sink after hitting an iceberg on its maiden voyage. On that fateful night of April 14, 1912, it plunged into the depths of the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean and into the history books forever.Documentaries, books and of course an Oscar-winning film have all since detailed exactly what happened during the tragedy, and now the LEGO Group has paid its own respects to the historic vessel with the release of the largest LEGO set ever produced. To clarify, 10294 Titanic is the largest LEGO model by scale at a ludicrous 135cm long, and the second-largest set by piece count (the crown still goes to 31203 World Map), coming in at a whopping 9,090 pieces.A set of this size is a feat of extraordinary LEGO engineering and design, so to even attempt something like this in the first place should be applauded - but the fact the designers have managed to successfully execute a LEGO model that looks highly authentic and, dare we say, utterly gorgeous should be commended. However, with one eye on that enormous scale - and with a source material whose own design is fundamentally uniform throughout - will the build experience be a monotonous exercise in patience and repetition, or have the designers managed to make the construction process as entertaining as the final model is accurate?Join us as we climb aboard to find out…

What a great review! I couldn't agree with your assessment of how good the build experience is. It is one of the only sets I have built that I am seriously considering taking apart and redoing! Thanks!

My favorite LEGO build behind the UCS Millennium Falcon and the '89 Batmobile. Such an incredible set!

Excellent review although I must advise that you reduce the tension in the rigging. The amount of bend in that aft mast is making me incredibly nervous 😬 Either that or some of your string bits are too short.
