About LEGO Ferries
These are LEGO models of real ferries and cruise ships, made for the shipping lines that sailed them and sold on board and in their shops. Most come from the Nordic routes. The earliest are from 1977, the Finnjet and a Silja Line ferry, and models followed for Viking Line, Stena Line, Color Line and the Danish Kronprins Frederik. Each was built in the colours and logos of the real ship. In 2016 and 2019 the idea moved to cruise ships, with models made for MSC Cruises.
1990 LEGO Sets
1990 was a creative high point, expanding LEGO’s thematic depth. Pirates, launched in 1989, continued to thrive with new ships and island adventures, pioneering expressive minifigure faces. The new Model Team line targeted older builders with detailed, functional vehicles emphasizing realism. LEGO Space introduced M:Tron, a red-and-black rescue faction featuring magnetic crane elements and transport vehicles, establishing a new civilian layer within the Space universe.
