“Don’t let that huge gulf between price and pieces put you off: 60368 Arctic Research Ship includes not only enormous boat hull pieces, but also a brand new LEGO orca. There’s a lot of plastic in the box as a result, and plenty of play potential for younger fans.”

“60368 Arctic Explorer Ship is a great return to form for LEGO City Arctic, and fans of the infrequent subtheme will be delighted with this gargantuan research vessel. The Explorer Ship itself is huge, and feels really significant and fun to play with because of its size. If... More you collect City Research Ships like me, this will make a great addition to your collection, or if you’re just getting started, this is a fantastic starting point as it’s got a really contemporary design, accentuated by the very attractive Medium Azure, Orange and Dark Blue color scheme.”

About City Arctic

Arctic is a City subtheme that involved arctic explorers. It was an extension of the original Arctic sets released under the Town theme in 2000. The City version of the Arctic theme had two releases, in 2014 then again in 2018. The background story behind the theme involved meteors that were falling to Earth in locations around the Arctic. The sets featured several snow vehicles and a research station.

Arctic currently consists of 23 sets that as of now has run from 2014 to 2023. As of today, 60062 Arctic Icebreaker is the most valuable Arctic set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $257.
