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.
1998 LEGO Sets
1998 marked LEGO’s leap into programmable play with the launch of LEGO Mindstorms, combining motors, sensors, and code for user-built robots. LEGO also entered digital entertainment with games like LEGO Creator, LEGO Loco, and LEGO Chess. New themes included Adventurers, following Johnny Thunder’s global expeditions, and Insectoids, a sci-fi successor to Exploriens. LEGO Castle revisited classic factions such as Crusaders and Dragon Masters, reconnecting with its medieval roots while bridging into modern set design.
