MeiFong Posted July 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Because of a link Beamafar gave on the Meraviglia thread I learned that a LEGO version of the still being build Meraviglia exists. After some googling I found out that the LEGO box is only available for sale on the MSC ships. Some reports mention that it is sold on the Preziosa and the Fantasia, other links mention the box is sold on all ships. Has anybody seen this box, LEGO set 40227 - MSC Meraviglia, being sold on the ships? And if so what is the price? Thanks for any replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for any replies. there is one available for sale on this web site but it is very expensive £121.34 http://www.brickowl.com/catalog/lego-msc-meraviglia-set-40227 and this wb site has a number of sellers of the product , some of which are damaged or in damaged boxes https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=40227-1#T=S&O={} it is also on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/191918480911?clk_rvr_id=1063614179043&item=191918480911&lgeo=1&vectorid=229508&rmvSB=true http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/items/?_nkw=LEGO+40227&_sacat=&_ex_kw=&_mPrRngCbx=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_sop=&_fpos=&_fspt=1&_sadis=&LH_CAds=&clk_rvr_id=1063608782679&satitle=LEGO+40227&rmvSB=true Pete Edited July 18, 2016 by Skier52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeiFong Posted July 18, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Thanks Pete, I had found the brickowl link as well and that prize seemed ridiculously high to me. The other links you provided have some better prizes, but still expensive. Of course I do realise it is a limited edition and it's real LEGO so it is always going to come at a prize. Knowing if they are indeed sold on the ships and at what prize would help in deciding if I really want to buy one (either on board or online).

Rare All-ready2cruise Posted July 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) I would love to get a Lego Meraviglia. Spent many happy hours with my kids playing with Lego and this would be the Icing on the cake... prices start as low as $50 USD so may just place a bid. Fingers crossed :p Geez, where are my manors.... sorry, thanks for the info Pete ;) and good luck ojeepost, hope you find what you're looking for.

riclop Posted July 19, 2016 #5 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Get it for Xmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunterri Posted July 19, 2016 #6 Share Posted July 19, 2016 It's an awesome little model, we have one, got it on the Preziosa. Can't remember the cost, maybe around the 30Euros mark? Not sure I'll have to hunt down the bill. And as we live in the most expensive part of the world for Lego (costs us three times as much here as it does in other countries!) we got a LOT of Lego on the ship.

Rare Beamafar Posted July 19, 2016 #7 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Knowing if they are indeed sold on the ships and at what prize would help in deciding if I really want to buy one (either on board or online). I can check it out on my upcoming cruise and report back, if nobody else does beforehand. However, I'm sailing on Sinfonia which is a small ship (comparatively speaking) so they may not stock it.

1fifthavenue Posted July 19, 2016 #10 Share Posted July 19, 2016 They had it on the Armonia but it didn't have the price on, I'm going to buy one on Splendida in September I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeiFong Posted July 20, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted July 20, 2016 According to the rules and regulations of the MSC USA promotion the LEGO ship has a value of approx. 20 dollars. But I imagine they sell it for more on board. I just hope they keep selling them for a while since I had to cancel my upcoming cruise in September and the next one isn't scheduled for another year. In the meantime I'll just keep an eye on eBay and hope prizes go down. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikita4 Posted July 21, 2016 #12 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I'm on the Preziosa this week and the lego model of the Meraviglia costs 10.80 Euros. Its not a big model it is much smaller than the carton model of the ship. I've buy one lego model on the Fantasia in May also for 10.80 Euros.

grandebarca Posted December 24, 2016 #13 Share Posted December 24, 2016 It's an old thread but I'll post anyway. I just bought this on the MSC Divina (sailing out of Miami to Caribbean) for USD$11.90. After seeing these sell on ebay for $40-80 each I wish I bought every single one in the store (and they had plenty - probably 2 dozen on the shelf). Now I'm conflicted - do my kids unwrap this "toy" tomorrow for Christmas and probably lose half the pieces or do I make a quick $50 profit on ebay? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suron Posted December 26, 2016 #14 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Just finished cruise on MSC Fantasia 17th Dec from Dubai and the Lego model of Mergavilia was available in the Duty Free Shop priced at around Euros12. It was not on display and we had to ask for it. We had seen the model made up in the Logo Shop and were told where to buy it! Hope you find stocks still available Suzanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeiFong Posted December 29, 2016 Author #16 Share Posted December 29, 2016 (edited) Glad to read that there are still plenty of Lego models available on board and for a reasonable price, thanks for the info. I hope they will also sell them on the Meraviglia itself this summer. I was just planning to buy one as a souvenir, but with the prices on Ebay it almost seems like a worthwhile investment. ;):) Edited December 29, 2016 by ojeepost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
