Do you dare to go back into the water when this brand new LEGO Jaws set has been unleashed, let’s explore this 1497-piece set!
To celebrate the release of the set LEGO Group has created a 90-second short film called JAWS…in a Jiffy which tells the story of the iconic movie in LEGO brick form.
The film features all the favourite scenes, plus a surprise minifigure reveal at the end, featuring award-winning director Steven Spielberg behind the clapperboard. Fans can watch the film below:
This diorama commemorates the 1975 movie from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment.
The LEGO Ideas JAWS set is a meticulously designed recreation of one of the most famous scenes from the movie, allowing fans to relive the suspense and excitement of Spielberg’s masterpiece in brick form.
Minifigures include Police Chief Martin Brody, marine biologist Matt Hooper and sailor Sam Quint.
The set also features the iconic Orca boat, with a detailed cabin with a removable roof, an adjustable boom and rigging, plus lots of recognisable accessories, such as a revolver, compass, fishing rod, harpoon, spear, and the yellow barrels that were pivotal to the movie plot.
A nostalgic and quite wonderful LEGO set that has my nerd brain exploding with excitement, fan designer Johnny Campbell spoke about the set:
JAWS is my favourite movie of all-time, so I really wanted to recreate it in LEGO bricks. LEGO building has always been a part of my life in some shape or form but in order to get all of the finer details, I actually freeze-framed JAWS as I watched it so that I could catch a glimpse of the finer details taking notes as I went along.
It is just mind-blowing that my design is now an official LEGO set. I can’t wait to stand in a LEGO shop looking at the shelves and seeing a set that I have been involved with and watching someone buying it. It’s every LEGO fan’s dream!”
The LEGO® Idea JAWS set is available for LEGO Insiders from 3rd August 2024 and for all from 6th August 2024 priced at €149.99 / £129.99/ $149.99 from www.LEGO.com/Jaws and LEGO Stores.
