Lego has released a model of the Titanic with 9090 pieces.

The Titanic model is divided into three parts, with incredibly detailed interior designs, such as: a first-class grand staircase spanning six decks, a Jacobean-style restaurant, and an engine room.

With its large size, the model also allows players to creatively add some other amazing details, not just lifeboats, cargo cranes, swimming pools, or promenades on the ship; players can also operate details on the ship such as raising or lowering the anchor and adjusting the tension of the ropes between the masts.

Mike Psiaki, a design expert at Lego Group, said that the Titanic's voyage was a major inspiration for them to recreate this iconic ship from Lego bricks. "When it was launched, the Titanic was the pinnacle of maritime engineering, the largest vessel of its time."

“The design of the Lego Titanic focuses on minute details and adheres to absolute proportions and high precision, making it one of our most challenging building experiences to date. We know that Lego enthusiasts and ship lovers of all ages will love this product, they will build it and display it in their homes,” Psiaki expressed his hopes.

The Lego Titanic model, measuring over 1.3 meters in length, includes a plaque bearing the ship's name. Online ordering for this model will be available from November 1st, and it will then be available in Lego stores starting November 8th for $629.99 (over 14 million VND).

The Lego Titanic is one of the largest models the company has ever produced, with 9,090 pieces, surpassing the record held by the Lego Colosseum with 9,036 pieces. However, the Lego World Map Art set with the most pieces currently is the one with 11,695 pieces; this isn't a model but a world map measuring 105 cm long and 65 cm high, which can be hung on the wall.

Additional information

The actual Titanic, which began its voyage from Southampton (England) to New York (USA) in April 1912, was the largest, most modern, and most luxurious ship of its time, aiming to dominate the transatlantic sea route. However, on its first and only voyage, the ship struck an iceberg and sank completely within three hours, leaving more than 1,500 people on board with no chance of survival.

To this day, the ship remains a symbol of maritime history and is often known as the "Titanic disaster," becoming a source of inspiration for numerous works of literature, painting, and film around the world.
