Our take on the LEGO Ideas Sea Serpent 241-Piece Medieval Ship Building Set

The LEGO Ideas Sea Serpent is a 241-piece adult building set that reboots the 1992 Sea Serpent ship. It won the LEGO Ideas 'A Twist of Nostalgia' design competition. The model has a fabric sail, moving rudders and a cargo hold, plus two knight minifigures. It suits adult fans who grew up with classic LEGO castle and pirate sets, and collectors of small display models. Against larger ship sets it is compact and quick to build, trading size and minifigure count for a nostalgic design and a low piece count.
