“It's also worth mentioning that this is part of the larger Sea Exploration City sub-theme that carries the National Geographic license. These sets are designed to create excitement and interest in the natural world.”

“Without a doubt, the LEGO City Ocean Exploration Ship is a play set. It’s not a particularly nice model to look at, display wise. Sadly, we don’t think that LEGO City Ocean Exploration Ship offers great value for money. It’s one of the more expensive LEGO City sets out... More there. And at 745 pieces, it lacks the detail that we’d expect to see in a set of this price point. Sure, it’s huge, and it has some nice features, like the working crane and the huge shark, but it’s a lot of money for a playset.”
