August 2, 2024Aug 2 IF that parts count is accurate, it might well be minifig scaled, and have below decks detailing.

September 7, 2024Sep 7 So it has been quiet about this set since the initial news dropped. When do the Black Friday sets usually get revealed? I don't remember how it was in previous years. Â Edit:typo

I don't remember how it was in previous years. Lego is pretty good at keeping things under wraps up until close to the release date. Look at Eldorado Fortress. I wouldn't expect Lego to release anything until a week or two in advance. Leaks are another thing entirely. Those could appear anywhere at any time.
September 29, 2024Sep 29 On 5/16/2024 at 1:20 PM, Lyichir said: What an interesting rumor! Whether it's minifigure-scale or not, this will be the first set based on an actual historical sailing ship set in many years (I would not count the Queen Anne's Revenge since the Pirates of the Caribbean version is very clearly a more fantastical take on the real vessel of that name). The original Queen Anne's Revenge was named La Concorde and it was a French slave transport ship. It was stolen by the famous pirate captain Blackbeard. He renamed the ship and made it his commanding mother ship. The ship looked very different than what we saw in the Pirate of the Caribbean movies. Bluebrixx is working on a historical Queen Anne's Revenge that should release next year. On 5/12/2024 at 10:35 PM, Captain Pirate Man said: I have mixed feelings about this set. On one hand it's a sailing ship... So that's interesting. On the other hand it's WAY too new to fit in with traditional Pirate ships. I feel like it will fit in with the Titanic better than with Pirate ships.  I'll wait for official images to decide whether it's a buy or a pass. But my initial response is pass. Yes, I feel the same way.Â
October 1, 2024Oct 1 I am excited, yet holding back since it is such an off choice for a ship I'm in the group where it may be at a smaller than minifig scale type of set. Although heres hoping I eat those words!
October 6, 2024Oct 6 I am pretty sure it's not minifig scale because the real endurance has a lot of rowboats hanging on each side.Â

Though I would also think something like the Titanic is more likely to happen.
October 19, 2024Oct 19 Author Governor On the 1st of November, National Geographic is releasing a documentary on The Endurance. Here is the trailer: Quote In a legendary feat of leadership and perseverance, polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton kept his crew of 27 men alive for over a year despite the loss of their ship in frigid pack ice. Over a century later, a team of modern-day explorers sets out to find the sunken ship. From National Geographic Documentary Films and directed by Chai Vasarhelyi, Jimmy Chin and Natalie Hewit, ENDURANCE tells the inspiring stories of these two landmark expeditions, bound by their shared grit and determination. Â Â
October 28, 2024Oct 28 Photos are out on Reddit. My initial impressions are mixed. It's not Minifigure scale, which is fair enough, but, unlike the Titanic, at this size of ship, some of the LEGO element sizes cause the scales of various parts to feel quite different, and it jars with me a bit. I suspect seeing it in more detail will help with that. Also, the masts and sails feel a bit too small, but I'm not familiar with the original ship, so it may be accurate. What say the knowledgeable sailing crew? Â
October 28, 2024Oct 28 My fear, that the ship will turn out to be a not-minifig-scale display model, came true. The model looks bland and boring. Easy pass for me.
October 28, 2024Oct 28 The rigging technique is quite decent & those sails are gonna FLY off the secondary market shelves, but that's pretty much all  EDIT: and the flag, the flag is awesome as well! Edited October 28, 2024Oct 28 by F1stzz
October 28, 2024Oct 28 If that set isnt 200 euros/Dollars as is usually the case whit these. I might just buy it for the sails alone.Â
October 28, 2024Oct 28 Not for me. I don't like these non minifigure display only sets but I love the sails and the flag.
October 28, 2024Oct 28 I mean, I guess we should have expected it to not be minifigure capatible, but it's still a bummer. The pieces are fantastic though! The sails, flag, and dark brown mast pieces! However, I am not going to buy it, it's just not worth it
October 28, 2024Oct 28 I didn't expect to buy the complete set anyway since it's not the time period I'm generally interested in, but the ship looks to me totally wrong. Either it's too long or the masts are too short... Don't know what exactly but it's unrecognizable to me. The sails are also hardly attractive - won't even bother to get them on PAB. Shame.
