The set was designed by screenprinter Jake Sadovich of Garden City, Idaho, US. Jake reached 10K votes on the LEGO Idea site in only 48 days back in late 2016 and the project was selected to be created.

The Ship in a Bottle LEGO set features a detailed ship with the captain’s quarters, cannons, masts, crow’s nest, flag and sail elements and is placed inside the LEGO brick-built bottle with a buildable cork, wax seal element and water-style elements. The LEGO showcase stand features the ship’s ‘Leviathan’ nameplate.

A new Ship in a Bottle sells for around $150 today, after averaging 11.8% growth a year since retirement. Give it five years and our forecast has it near $198.

Collector and Investor Standing
A ship sealed inside a brick built bottle gives this Ideas set its appeal, right down to the Leviathan nameplate on the stand. The fan designed build suits the adult collectors who favor the line, and its narrower store reach adds to the interest. Plenty of members own or want it, and it trades often.

“A transparent bottle is an ambitious build considering the medium of LEGO bricks has its limitations, but even with all the compromises, the finished model is an impressive show of potential. The set introduces a fair amount of new parts and colours, but none that play a... More crucial role in the set’s execution.”

“LEGO Ideas has provided us with a great array of sets, each vastly different from each other, but the Ship in a Bottle is by far one of the most unique and visually impressive. It’s also fun to build with some great techniques and elements used.”

Brick Fanatics
“I love that 21313 Ship in a Bottle is a stand alone model, rather than being based on a nostalgia driven license. In the end, fans' first impressions of this set will pretty much tell them whether or not to buy as this is a set that contains no hidden surprises. If you saw... More this model and loved the look of it, it will disappoint as it is so well executed. If you would love to have a well executed little ship to display on a shelf or the desk at work, and can stomach the price, then snap up 21313 Ship in a Bottle.”

His creation reached the qualifying 10,000 votes with LEGO Ideas.

Bottle features a detailed, buildable cork with new-for-February 2018 wax-seal-style element and over 280 translucent-blue, water-style elements inside. Display stand features the ship’s ‘Leviathan’ nameplate, a built-in ‘compass’ (non-functioning) with detailed compass rose and spinning gold-colored needle, 2 globe elements and gold-colored detailing.
