LEGO Ideas 21317 Disney Steamboat Willie Building Kit (751 Pieces)

I thought it would be bigger for the price. Wish it could have had more extra pieces in case you loose some. This is for my son and he lost a piece right away and that messed us up. Other than that it’s really cute and my son loved it.

Gave this to my grandson for Christmas. He was so happy

Neat set. My son loves it.

Fun to put together. Have to follow diagrams in book carefully.

Excellent my kids love it

It kinda blew my mind once I started assembling.

Nice piece to add to your collection.

This set is adorable!

My wife is a Disney mega-fan, and, over the last couple of years, developed an affinity for all things Lego. This Steamboat Willie kit was, therefore, a winner way before it ever came out of the box. In fact, the box itself looks so collectible, that I’m quite convinced that my wife may have been satisfied to set the unopened box up on a shelf to admire. Thankfully, for myself and two young boys, she decided to crack the seal and let us help build this wonderful set. Although it is not a super complicated, set, there are enough moving parts to achieve a near perfect challenge to fun ratio. When completed, sliding the boat forward spins its paddle wheel and moves the steam pipes up in down in alternating sequence, as seen in the original Steamboat Willie cartoon. The striking black and white styling of this set makes it ideal for long-term display in home or office. I think this will end up being a desirable collector set I in future years. The two included minifigs are great. There is just something about them that provides a different vibe than any other minifigs I’ve seen previously. The same is true of the whole set, really. I don’t want to spoil the excitement that my family was able to share when we opened the box, but I will say that this set packs some surprises, making it even more fun in person than what is captured by the product listing pictures. This is a very fun and attractive set that I cannot imagine that any fan of Disney and Lego will regret picking up. We love it!

I am absolutely thrilled that this is not all black and white! The colorful bricks used for the inner workings of the steam boat really made it fun! I wish you could have seen my smile when I opened the box! The build is not difficult, but has some areas that are a little trickier than others. The step by step instructions were easy enough for a 9 year old to follow. It took him approximately 4 hours or so. He had one smokestack get stuck, but we found a fix to help us. Simply pick up the one smoke stack and gently put it down. I know some others had to rebuild theirs by removing one piece. We did not need to do that. Your finished steamboat is aproximately 10”x5” and features moving smokestacks, and moving paddlewheel! It comes with both Mickey and Minnie! I love knowing all the cheerful colors fill the interior of our Steamboat!
