Deep Sea Discovery

Deep Sea Discovery is a model of an intrepid team of marine archaeologists who brave the depths, exploring a shipwreck to uncover its secrets and collect its treasures.

I created Deep Sea Discovery initially as an entry in Series 5 of the BrickLink Designer Program. Unfortunately it was not selected, but I loved the idea, detail and playability of the model. I think given the broader audience in the LEGO Ideas program, it's a good fit. I really wanted to create an entire shipwreck scene with divers exploring it and searching for any artifacts of treasure in an environment that really feel deep, dark and menacing. I included lots of ways to pose the divers throughout.

Deep Sea Discovery is a unique blend of city and pirates at a large scale. It's a model that's both very playable and displayable that includes a lot of detail and hidden features to find. While there have been several LEGO City sets that include portions of a shipwreck, this one includes the entire ship complete with interior details for the divers to explore. I think this fits the adult 18+ audience for LEGO Ideas very and it's something I would really be excited to see on store shelves.
