LEGO Titanic REVIEW | Set 10294

[@vartanpapazian8342]

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.

[@wiseman171]

It would look good displayed under a lego ocean tho

[@jehugz]

[@umbrellaoli]

No one would remember the Titanic if it hadn't sunk.

[@kurdtray]

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.

[@vartanpapazian8342]

@@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 👌

Maybe whats really sad is this amazing set will be out of the price range of many people who love Titanic. Imagine that sinking feeling when you see the price.

[@ltmexico91]

Haha sinking.

[@pietrooliani3251]

I mean there is the trumpeter 1/200 model kit that with all the extra details and paints will cost you around half the price, problem is that thing is out of the skill level of most people

[@belfast4893]

@@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.

[@schrungy5757]

Lol ya know you say that but it's really not. Like it's out of the price range I can just impulsively spend but I'll save for a few months and have it by Easter. Like seriously be an adult and learn to spend ur money right. 90%of poor people are poor because they spend money poorly. Get a better job learn money management. Become an adult.

[@SilentBill1987]

Compared to the amount of pieces this price is great

[@thatoneidiotnathan]

Everything about this set is insane, the piece count, the size, the detail, the price!

[@Nander3]

Well, the price. The colleseum was 550 while this is 630. The colleseum had 54 less pieces. Either way it is a great price. I’m just saying it doesn’t completely line up with the colleseum price

[@goldfing5995]

Imagine Caldon Hockley in the movie saying: "Everything about this ship is insane, the number of rivets, the size, the luxury, the costs." :-) (Actually he said something similar, namely Titanic be longer than Mauretania and much more luxurious.)

[@belfast4893]

The detail is least impressive. For almost a 1/200 scale model, I’d says this is quite embarrassing, considering the price it charges. At a scale of this size, every mistake they make is greatly magnified and cannot be neglected.

[@randomrazr]

how long would it take to build

[@belfast4893]

@@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.

[@kentslocum]

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.

[@lukiejewitt3402]

I totally agree dude, the map Shouldn’t be classified as the largest set, the titanic should

[@Jambobist]

People get way too hung up on the largest set thing anyway, it doesn't matter at all, literally just a number.

[@HolyCrusader5]

Agreed. Size and amount of lego pieces don’t go together

[@goldfing5995]

@@lukiejewitt3402 Remarkably, this also holds for the original Titanic, which had the same length but more weight than the Olympic, so Titanic was judged the largest ship in the world.

[@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!

LEGO itself considers the Titanic their biggest set ever. So that means things like LEGO Art doesn't count as a proper LEGO set.

[@burnt_toast_astro7180]

I think they are reffering to size

[@noahdiluca9857]

By weight makes more sense anyway cause it’s not only the number but the size of the pieces that determines the size of the build

[@rompowertube]

7:22 That's because that's how the original Ship was designed! The third (or middle-) propeller ran directly from a turbine, driven by the excess steam coming from the two reciprocating engines. This is actually very accurate (except the central propeller had 4 blades).

[@cowerdnerddespacito9518]

The fact it can be separated to see the interior is exactly what I expected Also the fact the stern splits at the fake smoke stack is also cool since when the ship sank it split in between the 3rd and 4th funnel I have a feeling someone is gonna make a MOC of it splitting may those who perished aboard the ship Rest In Peace Wait no it broke in front of the 3rd smoke stack not the 4th sorry my bad

One detail I love is that they used the correct amount of stars (46) for the U.S. flag at the time.

[@Daniel_Huffman]

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.

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]

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.

[@femmefuntime]

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]

Though the White Star Line was funded by JP Morgan, the company was a British Registered Company. Hence Liverpool being the Port of Registration. (Though Titanic never actually visited Liverpool…) The fourth funnel was a ventilation stack….

[@astrodude87]

I learned recently that the flag on the forward mast was for the intended destination. Titanic was US-bound, hence the Stars & Stripes. Its sister Olympic was UK-bound when it received Titanic’s distress calls, and thus would have been flying the Union Jack on its own forward mast.

This is a must have for us collecters

[@randomcreature7507]

I only have one thing to say: It is amazing!

[@lostcosmonaut1000]

I have been waiting for this set since 2nd grade, in a junior now

[@darthgrundle2349]

Love the details. I love how LEGO included the GOLD stripe around the hull. I think that touch was only done on OLYMPIC class Ocean Liners. Ordering mine as soon as I can afford it...Great review, thank you Sir.

[@Battleshipfan]

The fact that it splits exactly where the movie did is stunning and very useful for stop motion movies

[@Battleshipfan]

@SomeoneOnlyWeKnow i am aware of that lad the specific movie where the split location is , is the 1996 miniseries that predated the 1997 movie

[@Battleshipfan]

@SomeoneOnlyWeKnow because im just nitpicky about it , and that something unintentional lead to something a bit awesome but it can be modified by someone to split exactly in the real area of the breakup would be interesting people who achieve that are true masterbuilders , so ill just cap it off at that

[@ianjestico1588]

Can you measure the distance between the two end supports to see if it will sit on a cabinet and overhang either end

[@Basketcase_02]

An insane detail I noticed, the US flag actually has 46 stars on it making it historically Accurate!

[@masonpyle5929]

That’s not true.The titanic took sail April 10th 1912. The 47th state New Mexico, joined the US January 6th, 1912 and the 48th state Arizona joined the US February 14th, 1912.

[@Basketcase_02]

@@masonpyle5929 technically you are correct however the flag depicting 48 stars was not put into use until July 4 1912. The Titanic set sail in April meaning it was still flying the 46 star flag

[@Jambobist]

You noticed when it was pointed out in another review you mean...

[@Basketcase_02]

@@Jambobist no, I actually am just a massive Titanic nerd! so as soon as the first leaked images were showcased I quickly zoomed in on the flag to see how many stars it had😁

[@priscilalee5484]

Thank you for your videos. Love all of your attention to showing all of the details.

[@Sonic101YT]

One thing I like about this model (besides everything)it the break away point in between the 3rd and 4th funnels is right where the ship broke in real life

[@Delirious_Imperius]

That's only for the 1997 movie, as recent research indicates it split in front of the 3rd funnel

[@JACCO20082012]

Imagine your full time job being to build cool things with Legos and determine what pieces you need to make something amazing.

[@masonpyle5929]

This looks unbreakable and cool. I bet building it makes you feel like the king of the world after finishing.

[@ShizuruNakatsu]

She is unbreakable. God himself could not break this ship.

[@joshsimpson1648]

Saw this in person today. I'm now planning on upgrading to it from my saturn V

[@nickhowes5348]

Lego and Titanic nut since 1981. Mind is blown.

[@Dylan_B23]

It's always wild to me how fast some people build Lego. When you say it would be 12-14 hours "taking your time" ... lol. I usually build 1 bag a night, while watching a movie or tv show, and spend about an hour+ on that one bag. So for me, this is like a 50 hour build

[@treedom5938]

I’ve waited for this moment for 9 years, ever since I was 8

[@skinnyj123]

My lego pirates have a worthy opponent now

[@gieselats]

Please show us this set in four years again. It would be interesting to see how the tiles and bricks look like. Maybe there is a tendency that they could get brittle. Nevertheless an awesome set. If I had the money, I would build it for myself to keep it and enjoy it. Keep up the good work.

[@kilekson]

The titanic model is massive but if you ever visit the HMS queen mary in sandiego they have a giant lego model of the ship in the promenade

[@arnoldrimmer9161]

Great review and I'll definitely be getting this beautiful set asap. Got me thinking as to when a lego set will breach the £1000 mark and what model it will actually be, lego have definitely realised the huge market for adults with deep pockets! Hi from the UK!

[@ohcrikey9560]

I'm in the middle of building this thing and I'm loving it!

[@cowerdnerddespacito9518]

That quick! I wasn’t expecting a review for another month!
