Description

A vehicle with a story

Hidden Side was LEGO's augmented-reality ghost-hunting theme, pairing physical builds with a companion app, and this submarine fits that world with a moody, technical look. Three minifigures come along, giving the model a crew rather than just an empty hull. At 224 pieces it sits firmly in the smaller vehicle-set category, quick enough to finish in a single sitting while still leaving room for a few build steps that make it feel like more than a toy. The set works fine as a standalone build even without the app.

Colour palette

Black and the two greys, Light Bluish Gray and Dark Bluish Gray, form the base of the hull, giving the submarine a hard, industrial edge. Bright Light Orange breaks that up in targeted spots, likely on hatches, equipment or warning markings, which keeps the model readable from a distance. It's a classic pairing for vehicle sets: neutral tones doing the structural work, with one accent colour carrying the visual punch. Every part and its exact colour is broken out on this page's parts list.

Piece count and build time

224 pieces and 108 unique parts put this set at the smaller end of the Hidden Side range, which suits anyone after a shorter build rather than a weekend project. The minifigures bring their own small accessories, adding play value once the hull is finished. Builders who enjoy sorting by colour or part type will find the mix varied enough to stay interesting without becoming overwhelming, and the moderate part count also makes it a reasonable pick for less experienced builders working alongside someone more confident.

Reusing the parts

The dark grey and black elements in this set are common LEGO colours, so anything left over slots easily into other vehicle or building projects, especially ones with a technical or nautical feel. The orange pieces stand out enough to work as accent colours elsewhere too. Check the parts list on this page before starting a MOC (a custom build) to see exactly which pieces, in which colours and quantities, this set can supply.
