New Lego Icons set announced: Ernest Shackleton's Endurance
8/11/2024
Translation: machine translated
The name Endurance is particularly familiar to history buffs: the 44-metre-long three-masted ship became famous during the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1914-1917) under the command of Sir Ernest Shackleton. Lego is launching the detailed model of the Endurance on Black Friday. With 3011 pieces, the ship, which broke up in the ice of the Antarctic in 1915, can be faithfully recreated.
The ship comes with a presentation stand. There are no mini-figures of the crew included. But that is probably intentional for a ship that is primarily intended as decoration.
The Lego Endurance is 47 centimetres high, 80 centimetres long and 24 centimetres wide. The set is intended for fans aged 18 and over.
About the Endurance
Lego Black Friday
The set will be released on 29 November 2024 and will initially be available exclusively on the Lego website. This is "Lego Black Friday", when Lego announces a major set every year. The toy company has set the price at 269.99 euros or 289 francs. We will probably get it in our shop too, but I can't tell you exactly when yet.
