LEGO® City Deep Sea Exploration Vessel 60095 Review

Costing $119.99, the Deep Sea Exploration Vessel is the most expensive deep sea set. However, it doesn't have the most pieces as it only has 717 making it about 16.7 cents per piece which is far too expensive. It comes with 2 large builds and three smaller ones as well as a variety of figures. The minifigures included are 4 scuba divers, 2 crew member and a deep sea diver and the accessories included are a walky-talky, a welder, a life preserver, 2 mugs, 2 boxes and 16 gold bars. There is also 2 grey sharks, a white shark, a swordfish and an octopus included. One of the mini builds is a remote sub that measures 5X2X9cm and has a single arm and an aerial. I thing this doesn't look very good and has a bit of a weird design. Another small build is a scuba scooter with spinning propellers, lights and clips for a crowbar. It measures 9X4X3cm and looks really good. The final of the mini builds is a  submarine that has an opening canopy, spinning propellers, jointed arms and space for a minifigure. This looks nice except for the fact the shape of the roof doesn't really match the shape of the windscreen. One of the larger builds is a shipwreck that is covered in seaweed. It looks really nice and measures 28X15X13cm. There is some space in the middle to put the crates and the gold bricks on the side can be pulled out to collapse the bridge of the ship. I think this is a nice size with nice features and good looks. The final, main build is the vessel itself. It has a unique shaped blue hull and measures 31X18X19cm. It has some good looking buoys that hang from the sides and some nice looking engine detail. Inside the bridge is some nice detail and under the bridge is a cabin area with beds and tables. At the front there is space for the life boat that measures 7X5X3cm and looks really nice, at the back, there is a crane to lower the shark cage at the back. This measures 5X3X8cm and has an opening front to allow you to put a minifigure in. In conclusion, I think the big builds of this set are absolutely fantastic and look great but the smaller ones need a bit of work. The minifigures are good but the price is far too high. For that reason, I would recommend buying the Deep Sea Operations base as it's cheaper but has more pieces.
