You’re gonna need a bigger boat
Chief Brody
This is the famous line inscribed on a printed tile on the display for the new LEGO Jaws 21350 set, that is coming this August 2024. Not only do you get a highly detailed ship (the Orca) made out of LEGO, and 3 original minifigures of the main crew, but you also get the shark JAWS, in a great brick built model that resembles the actual size of the shark in LEGO scale.
Let’s start this with a 90 second movie “Jaws in a Jiffy” that LEGO released when this set was announced. Be sure to turn your sound ON to get the full experience. Be sure to look out for a cameo of Steven Spielberg as a minifigure!
