TheDarkness Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Will have little to no effect. Maersk was also quite visible through the finale of Iron Man 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I think if someone where to look at the Lego Maersk Ship, they would think "that`s cool/impressive/whatever other adjective" on it`s own. It`s not really an item that you would think "oh, I wonder if Lego makes a Maersk Ship." Your regular Joe is going to think "I`d like a Lego ship for me/someone else, let`s see what they have." My point I guess is that, while the movie looks good, it is unlikely to really boost sales of the set. It would work more like this I think if someone were to see the Lego set. "Hey, that`s the one from Tom`s Hank`s movie right?" not while watching the movie thinking "Hey, that`s the real life rendition of the Lego set right?" You`ll be drawn more to the movie from the set, not to the set from seeing the movie. Something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akohns Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Looks like a good flick. Tom Hanks is my all time favorite so it's a must see for me. That man can carry a movie plot on his back alone like no other actor. I don't think it will make people buy the legos any more. But I guess there may be a few people who make the connection with the brand and might pick up a future Maersk set that they might not have noticed without that brand recognition.

Guest eightbrick Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Looks good. The Bourne movies were pretty good, so I'm hopeful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxofcorey Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 The odds of me not screwing up almost all of those stickers is so low that it will keep my from buying it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fcbarcelona101 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Just amazing! I am seriously thinking about getting one, but probably late next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Mack Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I love it. I would love to see a whole theme of different ship types. The Titantic would be awesome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justafrog Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Gorgeous! I would also love to see a whole line of ships, boats, pontoons, rafts, skiffs, canoes, and dinghies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idunno101 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I love it. I would love to see a whole theme of different ship types. The Titanic would be awesome. I've been waiting for Lego to make the Titanic for so long. I hope it finally becomes a set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcbarcelona101 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Honestly, I would LOVE a Cruiseship theme more than anything. They could try to get a license from Royal Caribbean or even Disney (probably easier) and reproduce the ships! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicblast Posted September 28, 2013 Author Share Posted September 28, 2013 I'd love to see a boat theme, a train theme and an airplane/helicopter theme. Even though TLG has done some from each category we need full themes. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eightbrick Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Beautiful! I was hoping it wouldn't be another re-release, and my wish has been granted. Now if only my wish to mysteriously happen upon 179.99 CDN dollars came true... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwilkx Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 The only thing worse than a ton of stickers is stickers across multiple pieces, which it appears this has a bunch of. I thought Lego was done with that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
