Description

Scrap-metal colours

The palette fits MetalBeard's patchwork, salvaged aesthetic well: black and the two greys form the hull and structural framework, while flat silver stands in for scavenged metal plating and mechanical parts bolted onto the build. At 412 pieces, the set is mid-size for the 2014 Movie wave, enough to build a small vessel with some distinct silhouette and moving elements, while staying compact enough to build in a single sitting on a quiet afternoon.

164 unique parts in a smaller set

164 unique parts out of 412 pieces is a high ratio for a set this size, pointing to a good number of specialised elements rather than plain repeated bricks, fitting for a ramshackle, patched-together pirate vessel where every panel looks slightly different. That variety also makes the set a useful source of flat silver and dark bluish grey detail pieces for other builds once taken apart. The parts list above breaks down all 164 elements by shape and colour.

Three minifigures for a face-off

With 3 minifigures, the set supports a small confrontation scene rather than a large crew, consistent with a duel-focused build centred on MetalBeard and one or two opposing characters. That figure count is typical for Movie sets from 2014 at this piece range, where most of the budget goes into the vessel itself rather than a full cast, which suits a single, clearly told scene rather than a sprawling one.

A recognisable Movie character set

70807 released alongside the first LEGO Movie film in 2014 and focuses on one of its more visually distinctive characters, MetalBeard, whose scrap-metal design lends the set a rougher, more textured look than a standard pirate ship set. Because much of the build uses generic grey, black and silver pieces rather than heavily printed parts, most elements remain reusable in other pirate or sci-fi builds. Compare the piece count, part variety and colours above with your existing collection.
