Toy company LEGO revealed an authentic replica of the most famous ship of all time, the RMS Titanic.

LEGO officially designed these gigantic pieces for the fans to recreate the luxury liner in detailed LEGO brick form, 110 years since it was launched in Belfast in 1911.

The new Titanic set from Lego shows the ocean liner before it encountered an iceberg and sank on its first voyage in 1912, killing over 1,500 people. The new setting allows you to construct the ship in its entirety.

It will be the centerpiece of Lego’s newest set, a scale replica of the ship. The recreation of the tragic cruise liner is “the largest official Lego set ever created,” according to the Danish toy manufacturer, with 9,090 pieces and a length of 135 cm.

Mike Psiaki, design master at the LEGO Group stated on their official website, “At the time of its launch the Titanic was the pinnacle of nautical engineering, the largest moving vehicle ever created. It has been an incredible journey to recreate this iconic vessel from LEGO bricks, using blueprints created over a century ago.”

“Designing the LEGO Titanic with such a focus on immense detail and scale, but also accuracy has allowed us to create one of the most challenging building experiences to date.

We know brick builders and ship enthusiasts of all ages will love building the set and displaying it in their homes,” she added.

Although there are no Lego icebergs or small people included, you do receive a beautifully detailed ship with cross-sections of interior rooms like the grand staircase, dining saloon, and engine room.

Surprisingly, the set is somehow expensive at PHP 31,873, but that won’t stop it from being a global bestseller.

According to LEGO, it will be released on November 8th, and people can pre-order it now on the Lego website.
