Maersk Line Triple-E Reviews
Brickset
“Although a fine looking model when complete, if you are not a big fan of stickers, this set may not be for you. The many stickers that overlap bricks when applied makes it near impossible to dismantle without causing damage.”

“All in all, this is a good showpiece. It’s a great size, and has lots of really nice details. With rare colours and loads of special pieces, it’s a must for any collection. The stickers are a shame, but sometimes we have to live with stickers – after all, it’s worth it once... More they’re applied! This one gets 7.5 containers out of 10.”

They look more like inflatable rescue boats rather than the enclosed life boats they represent. Lego have used the mini-figure ice skates as two radar scanners. These can be constructed so that... More the scanners are at slightly different heights which is how they would be in the real ship so when they are both transmitting they do not interfere with each other.”
