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

My son LOVES Legos and Adores Steam Boat Willie. We couldnt pass this up for Christmas. He was so excited to receive it. I did price compare and Amazon had the best price around. All the pieces were there and it arrived in the time frame stated. Bonus points for moving pieces! The smoke stacks go up and down when you roll the boat across the floor!

This is the perfect gift for the Disney Lover! We have not finished putting it together yet, but it seems like it will be awesome when it will be finished!

Got it on amazon. I wanted it at Disney years ago.

Loved it!

Received the Legos and it was missing one of the packages of the LEGO pieces so it couldn’t be assembled

This was a gift and went over very well! It was easy to assemble.

Love the Item. Quick Delivery, exactly what I was looking for

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!

This is a beautiful set that I had the honor of buying during an exclusive sale to VIP members of Legos shoppers club. That got me early access and delivery of my order a few months before the set was finally released to the general public through all retailers and not just the manufacturers own e-tail system. I didnt have the time to immediately assemble that set, but I did get it done as soon as I could find a little time. From the number of pieces in the set, I didnt think it would take that long, but there are some complicated workings inside that help to give this set more motion and in turn more reminders of the material this set was created to honor. Once assembled, the steamboat will roll along on a fairly smooth surface with the paddle wheels turning but not just with that motion - as a bonus the smoke stacks also move up and down in a piston type motion, just like you may have seen in the original Steamboat Willie short film. I really, really, really like this set. It may not be my absolute favorite Lego set, but it ranks up there highly. I was really happy to get one here. Ive still got youngsters in the family that like to build Lego sets, and they too were excited at getting to assemble this set (under my supervision). With the set I had preordered already assembled, they had a full scale model to look at and figure out all the more how it should wind up, though the instructions that were included with this set are crystal clear and the set itself comes very well organized and fairly easy to work through. In the end, my concerns about assembly come more from the mechanics of the model and not from the assembly itself, or the instructions. It isnt that complicated, but it does leave you marveling and somewhat awestruck at how these plastic pieces come together and offer a working mechanism that will work for some time to come (if you dont take the model apart and build something else instead). Easily 5 stars from me and my family.

Giftable.
