Pchan1983 Posted July 4, 2020 Here is my review on 60266 Ocean Exploration Ship: THE GOOD: The ship does look massive. Love the new sting ray. Glad the Great White is back. Interesting new diving gears. Great use of stickers to make the aquariums. Great lab area. THE NOT SO GOOD: The scale of the main hall is a bit off. Look even a bit small for minifigure to stand in top level. Not indication on how minifigures can get to the lab. The pirate shipwreck's steering is a bit too modern. This set by no means is bad, it has it great parts and its own flaws. I particularly like its size when view from the size, the minifigures, the marine animals and the research lab. And I really like the use of stickers this time round. However, I really feel disappointed when there is no implication on how the minifigures are going to get to the lab. The scale is a bit off. This is indeed an expensive set but I'm glad I bought it 25% off which was a good deal. I will only recommend if you desperately need the great white or never own a lego boat before, otherwise wait for a clearance later this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Merlict Posted July 4, 2020 Eh can't say I love this one. There's not much to do underwater and the boat looks a bit weird, like the superstructure is too small Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Brick Boss Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) A little too big for my town. But it's good for display purposes. Looks amazing! Edited July 4, 2020 by Brandon Pea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TeriXeri Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) Looks like a cool set to somehow motorize and use in something like a garden swimming pool, to make use of the floating hulls. Also a nice set or template for a seaport layout, could turn in to 2 ships as well. Personally I'd rather get the 2020 underwater base, and use the 2019 Diving Yacht as I don't have a large layout, and there are some nice Pirate Ship options with the 2020 Barracuda Bay and Creator sets.
