The river steamboat played a crucial role in America's technological advancement during the early 19th century. It was first popularized in the early 1800s, as steamboats would go on to revolutionize transportation by allowing goods and passengers to travel upstream with unprecedented efficiency. The history of the River Steamboat now comes to life in brick form, as LEGO has revealed its newest LEGO Ideas set. Coming in at 4,090 pieces, this beautifully crafted set measures 27.5" long and 15.5" tall.
LEGO included authentic detail throughout the ship's design, including a pilot house, crew cabin, music star, restaurant, and even a boiler deck. Things do go a step further as master builders and boat enthusiasts can turn the ship's wheel to activate the rubber, raise the boarding stages, and even drop the anchor. This is a truly remarkable LEGO Ideas set that captures an iconic part of American history and will come in at $329.99. Pre-orders are not live for this set just yet, but it is expected to be released on April 11, 2025, online and at LEGO Stores.
