Product Overview
This LEGO Creator 3 in 1 set builds into a 1,074-piece pirate ship, complete with a moving anchor, posable sails, 2 cannons, a sea monster with posable tentacles, a cabin with a desk and chair, and a moving ship's wheel. Five minifigures join the adventure: 4 pirates and a skeleton. Using the same pieces, builders can rebuild the model into a castle or twin pirate ships, so the set never has to stay in just one form. The finished ship stands over 12 in. (30 cm) high and measures 15.5 in. (39 cm) long/wide, making it a large model worth displaying once complete.
- 1,074 pieces build into a detailed pirate ship with a moving anchor, posable sails, 2 cannons, and a moving ship's wheel
- Sea monster feature includes posable tentacles, all brick-built rather than pre-molded
- 3 different builds from one set: the main pirate ship, a castle, or twin pirate ships
- Includes 5 minifigures: 4 pirates and 1 skeleton
- Built for ages 9 and up; the LEGO Builder app offers a digital building guide
