Description

Where it comes from

Promotional sets were made on commission for a company rather than sold as ordinary toys. This one represents Stena Line, the shipping company whose ferries cross busy routes in northern Europe. The model shows a multi-deck passenger ferry, and that link to a real business is what draws collectors to it. If you enjoy boats and vehicles in brick form, it is a neat piece of corporate history that sits comfortably next to other promotional models from the nineties.

A hull in four colours

White, black, blue and light grey make up the main palette, which suits a ship's hull very well. White covers the superstructure, black and blue add contrast along the hull, and light grey handles the technical surfaces. Of the 197 pieces, 54 are different parts, so many bricks repeat, especially the larger surfaces. That keeps the build calm and easy to follow, even for newcomers. The parts list on this page shows every colour and quantity, so you can see at a glance what the box holds.

Build it, display it, rebuild it

A ship of this size comes together in an evening and then stands ready as a compact shelf model. The lone minifigure gives it a sense of scale and works for small harbour scenes. Since white, blue and black are among the most common colours, the bricks are easy to reuse later for your own ships, buildings or vehicles. That is what the "What can I build?" tool is for: it shows which other sets you could make from the parts you already own.

Who it suits

Collectors of promotional sets, ship enthusiasts and anyone completing a run of 1998 models will find a solid piece here. If you buy second-hand, check the parts list against the box, because small elements tend to go missing. With 197 pieces and one minifigure the effort is modest, and the clear colour scheme means the result looks good without extra lighting or accessories. This page helps you compare and plan your own variations.
