  • LEGO Announces World?s Largest Ship in Kit Form: The Maersk Line Triple-E

    If you've never heard of the Maersk Line Triple-E, it's currently the World's Largest Ship. The vessel measures over 1300-feet-long and 193 feet-wide, and


    What is it with Maersk and lego that's the second lego Maersk container ship. Is it some sort of Danish solidarity?

                fat chance. At the induction we had a game of killer pool with the opportunity to buy original maersk lego ship at retail price as the prize. It normally sells at 2-3x that on ebay

                  It saddens me somewhat to think that there are probably less than 5 people on here who will know where that comes from. :-)

                    Saw this the other day, it's not proper Lego, but it is incredibley cool.

                    Might add it to this years pay negotiation requirements :-)

                    No I do not report things from here to them as they are quite able to come and read this stuff for themselves.

                        Nope, Violet Elizabeth - Bonnie Langford played her very well. Violet Elizabeth also said things like, I'll cry if you don't play with me, and used to get William to play fairies etc. If she didn't get her own way, she would threaten to cry, or the famous I' ll scweam and scweam until you do phrase. So it's from Just William.

                          I actually am tempted to buy one of these! It is pretty impressive. However I suspect my son would disassemble it the minute my back was turned.

                              In what sense? It is made with (mostly) standard Lego parts. It isn't in the "minifigure" scale where you can put a bloke on the bridge, but neither were earlier Lego Maersk models.
