THE SET...
I really wanted to create a historical event or scene that is not that known to most people in lego, so I decided I'd try this... The Easter Island Voyage! It is a recreation of the first Europeans, the Dutch, being the first to discover Easter Island in 1722. Later, others soon explored Easter Island, Such as the Spanish, Captain Cook of England, and the French. And of course, what most astounded these explorers were the giant Easter Island Head monoliths, also known as Moai. The Islands original inhabitants, the Pacific islanders of polynesia, built these mysterious Moai heads.
While the Dutch called it Easter Island, the islands native inhabitants named it Rapa Nui.
The set idea includes shore line, the coastal waters, and a display border.

Each image links to the submission page on LEGO Ideas.

However, the reason there isn't any prominent linking is because the submission has expired.

Probably should make a note of that in the first post.
