Parts review: 10335 Endurance from LEGO® Icons

Posted by Kevin J. Walter

Various loose lego pieces including some printed with "The Endurance" text

Set sail and head towards the South Pole with LEGO® Icons 10335 Endurance. After the massive Titanic LEGO set in 2021, this is the next historical ship to release on a Black Friday. While significantly smaller and with fewer parts than its predecessor, it is a worthy contender for LEGO set of the year. In this first article, we are investigating the parts from which the Endurance is made.

Lego Icons 10335 The Endurance Ship

 

New parts

There are no new moulded elements in the set, but the LEGO Endurance offers a lot of great new elements of other kinds.

Fabric

The highlight has got to be the 10 (!) new cloth sails in this set. They are come in 8 different shapes and sizes, in a neutral tan colour and without any print or logo. This set provides us also with a new flag piece, so let's start with this before examining the sails more closely.

Conclusion

The Endurance LEGO set contains a lot of great parts. The absolute highlight are definitely the ten new cloth sails, which will be very useful for LEGO ship model builders, because they cover various ranges and shapes that are useful for all kind of different vessels.
 
The recolours are also a fine addition to the part palette, be it the parts introduced by this set or the vast amount of recolours from other sets in 2024.
 
loose parts from the endurance lego set, clevely laid out in the form of the ship without being connected

Stay on course and wait for our next article, to see if the building process and model itself can hold up to this already great foundation.

  1. Wow, that's a lot of neat parts! I especially love the picture of them knolled at the end, approximating the shape of the ship itself!

    The titanium metallic anchor is a great recolor, especially for this set (since the traditional black anchor would be hard to discern against the black hull of the ship).

  2. Those tile 1x1 round with porthole print will be perfect for lots of uses/greebles !
