Haha, thats funny...the first maersk ship, looks just like the actual lego one but well its the first one..Good idea to whoever made that! and I guess he bought a lot of vikings for those round things on the side, unless they can be found in other sets?

Wow why post this in three different forums?

Cos it's two themes merged into one (Vikings and Town). I wanted fans of both themes to see it. And since not everyone checks every forum I posted it in the respective forums for everyone to see and here on "neutral ground" for everyone to discuss. I just can't close the other threads...

Nice ship, but Light Blue will forever be "typecasted" as Maersk blue, regardless of the MOC.

Of their 2004 sets, I bought 22 sets when they came out. To really put the icing on the cake(....until the 2005 edition came out) I got my hands on the LAST Maersk from Lego(separate order/separate invoice). To me that means a lot. I love ships and ship building.

The viking/Maersk integration is excellent!

Oh, you're one of "those" why I didn't get one anymore...

Did you build a mini-fig scale ship with this many?

Hope so, because it would be a waste of money if you didn't!

Anyhow, talk about superior delivery. With the amount of weaponry on that boat, I'm sure your cargo will be just fine. Amazing. Just amazing.
