LEGO Ideas 21317 Disney Steamboat Willie Building Kit (751 Pieces)

Its cute. I love it.

Wife loved it

Something to put together on Christmas.

Wov this is a beautiful Lego set. Its a collectible, and is now occupying a proud display piece area in our living room. moving steam pipes, rotating paddles, black and white, so beautiful. The steam pipes moving is a bit tricky, but be patient - it works. I am not sure how its all falling apart from some reviewers, for us it worked perfectly fine. This is a one of a kind lego set - collect it before it becomes a rarity to find and is sold for 4x its price.

Just when you think LEGO has done it all, they come out with something else so cool. Who would have thought a black and white Steamboat Willie kit would be created. Mickey Mouse... Disney... this one has a lot of nostalgic history combined with modern LEGO bricks. It makes for a fun and unique LEGO build. 751 pieces to make for a single or multi-day challenge. It appeals to all age ranges 10 and up. I think it may be safe to say 7 and up. Whimsical, Fantasy, Nostalgia, Cute... They all come to mind. A prime Collectors set If youre into that. 5 stars!

This was a fun build that took a few hours. I noticed quite a few comments complaining that the smoke stacks would get stuck. I had that issue mid build when one particular step pressed 2 lego pieces too close to the moving gears or something as i was testing the movement with every new step. I found that pulling on the stacks upwards helped jiggle them into proper place so they could move again. This is one of those builds thats not easy to pull back apart if you miss a step because many of the pieces are snapped flat against each other. I ended up realizing I forgot a piece 10 pages later. Sure it was on the inside of the ship and didnt affect functionality, but still a silly mistake.

Four days of attempts.. four days of it falling apart... the pieces simply wouldnt stay together. Almost threw it in the trash. OR returned it. It was easier building the huge Ferris Wheel! I dont know why the bricks wouldnt stay together but I would almost have it done and one attempt to add a piece and several pieces would come undone. Hopefully this is not a sign that other sets will be as bad. I have an entire room full of Lego creations.. I hate to think of the money Ive spent over the years. NEVER have I been so frustrated with a set. Called it quits and while it works? There are many pieces that werent used so where I went wrong? I have NO clue but will NOT tear it apart again. it will have to do. First time Ive been terribly disappointed.

If youre a Disney fan, then youre gonna love this little set. Its super cute and fairly easy to put together. However the $90 price tag is absolutely ridiculous. Yes, the paddles spin and the smokestacks go up and down, but I believe a $50-$60 price-point is much more realistic. Youre pretty much paying for the Disney name and the nostalgic aspect.

I grew up with Mickey and Minnie. And Grandma and I am absolutely delighted to be able to pass this wonderous tradition on to yet another generation. Blessings to all.

This is a really fun LEGO set! This was a gift for my husband, who is a big movie and Disney fan and has also assembled the Aston Martin LEGO set. Steamboat Willie took around 2-3 hours to put together, and like all LEGO sets had excellent instructions and packaging. The set also has good detail. I love how it has the black and white look of the cartoon. It also moves, which is fun. The paddle wheel turns and the stacks move up and down as you push the boat along the table. We did have an issue with one of the stacks getting stuck in the upright position, but my husband was able to easily re-engineer the set so that that didn’t happen. The finished piece will be a nice display.
