LEGO TITANIC 2.0 - Histobrick's Revised Titanic Kit

After the first version of Lego Titanic, we had some suggestions - some mentioned in my video, and some brought up by you fine folks in the comments. Histobrick paid attention, fixed what they could, and refined the model for even further detail. I think she's gorgeous!

This kit is not endorsed by LEGO, but it does use genuine LEGO parts sourced from third party vendors. This isn't associated with the MASSIVE and office LEGO Titanic kit just released. I may eventually do a review for that, but certain things need to line up for that to happen.

Can't wait for a 9000 piece time lapse of Tom fumbling around with a Titanic kit lol. Maybe we'll see more of his old kbar too.

Tom, you HAVE to get the official set. I remember being like 7-8 years old and watching your stop motion short film and thinking “man I wish lego made a titanic set”. Its probably been over ten years since I watched your movie and now it would be like things came full circle for me. DO

After watching the video I do have some tips if you do end up getting the official lego titanic (which I highly recommend you do it looks brilliant). Please do not put all the bags in one pile it makes hunting for pieces needlessly difficult. Try using small containers or at least put them in separate piles. Also, do not simply attach pieces to the model when it states to do subassemblies first. This makes it easy to miss parts. The new set has been called a "masterclass in lego engineering" and is widely regarded as one of the best sets of all time because of its complexity and clever building methods (a lot more complex than any of these builds). For this reason, don't skip ahead or rush the process. Take your time and do it in multiple sittings.

That was so pleasant. The discussion, the review, the information, the music. All of it is so wonderful.

I mean these models look great don't get me wrong but the price is just unreal. I saw a set on the histobrick site with about 1600 lego pieces priced at $650. For comparison, the new lego titanic model is over 4 feet long, has 9090 pieces (many of which are large and more expensive), and is priced at $630. That's a price to part ratio of about 40 cents compared to 7 cents. Like i love the idea but the cost is just not justifiable for what you're getting.

What about upcoming LEGO TITANIC 10294 ? Its a bit pricey but looks amazing. Are you planing to adding it in your collection?

[NorseNerdleMeister]

Not only is the kit awesome, the packaging makes it extra special!

[NauticalStudy]

This is ASMR for the Titanic fandom. Awesome as always!

[historyarmyproductions]

Showing those Britannic clips and talking through it would be absolutely amazing. Great video as always, Tom! This kit is a huge improvement.

[robloxdude]

Please review the giant titanic! You could point out the innacuracies, and also the INTERIOR!

[DKrueger]

Histobrick really upped their game when it comes to these models. I got myself the Britannic, Edmund Fitzgerald, SS Nomadic, and the Carpathia, currently got the SS Arthur M. Anderson on preorder at the moment. Might go back just to get the Titanic and the Lusitania. Also, the wooden boxes makes great storage for small stuff. Currently have one up on a shelf containing the lifeboats, another one for old baseball cards, and third for instructions.

[Jiskpirate]

Yes! Would very much like to see. The Titanic and Lusitania videos are very nostalgic to me. Inspired me to make my own back in 2012! They are not that good, but have the same enthusiasm!

Lol that thumbnail 😂 (and congrats on 20K my fellow nor'easter!)

Tom definitely did a far better job on Titanic than before: far more detailed and accurate. As I've said elsewhere, I've stopped collecting Legos a long time ago and don't foresee myself getting back into it. But if I did, and I wanted some Lego ships, Histobrick would be the place I'd go. There's something oddly satisfying about building Legos, and I think that's part of their enduring appeal.

Before I go, just a quick question. So I'm currently working on a rendition of the cancelled Story Mode for THG. I initially plan on publishing it on my online writing accounts when complete, and should I do a good enough job on it, I'm also considering making it a film here on YouTube. I was wondering if my doing this is ok with you, and I promise to give you credit for the original idea. I asked this back on Reddit and James said I should bring this question to you, since it was your idea.

(also just one more thing: are you ever going to reupload the SS Titan vs RMS Titanic video here? I quite liked that one)

[MilosGameplaysYT]

Going back to this video for that barrel thing part at 31:15. I believe it could represent that overhang of the aft boat deck.

[denoftheth]

Yo I'm wondering does hictobrick have the carl d Bradley in lego if so can you please do a review my great great uncle was frank mays

[annettefindlay]

A really beautiful model of the Titanic!🚢

[somethinginnocuousindahouse]

I really appreciate your dog's sense of humour.

[EpicJoshua]

Great video Tom! I was a huge lego fan back when I was a kid... especially Lego Agents. I do remember watching your stop motion video when it came out in 2007.

Is there any new information about the Lusitania experience? I am really looking forward to it and can't wait!

[AmmyWulf]

I'm surprised this guy doesnt have more views and subscribers. I find his Lego Kit Building videos quite comforting, and I think more people should know about this amazing channel!

[AndyHappyGuy]

Can’t wait for the 9000 piece version!
