Today the LEGO Group unveils the LEGO® Ideas JAWS set, a brick-built diorama commemorating the infamous 1975 blockbuster movie “JAWS,” from Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment. To celebrate the launch, the LEGO Group, in partnership with Universal Products & Experiences, has created the first ever summer “brick-buster” mini-film, “JAWS…in a Jiffy,” a playful recreation of this iconic summer blockbuster movie - told in just 90-secs. The film features all the favorite scenes, plus a surprise minifigure reveal at the end, featuring award-winning director Stephen Spielberg behind the clapperboard. Fans can watch the film here.
The LEGO Ideas JAWS set is a meticulously designed recreation of one of the most famous scenes from the movie, allowing fans to relive the suspense and excitement of Spielberg's masterpiece in brick form. Originally conceived by LEGO fan Johnny Campbell, via the LEGO Ideas community platform, the 1497-piece set captures key elements and characters from the film in LEGO minifigure form - including Police Chief Martin Brody, marine biologist Matt Hooper and sailor Sam Quint. The set also features the iconic Orca boat, with a detailed cabin with a removable roof, an adjustable boom and rigging, plus lots of recognisable accessories, such as a revolver, compass, fishing rod, harpoon, spear, and the yellow barrels that were pivotal to the movie plot.
The set can either be placed on a brick-built seawater base with the JAWS LEGO shark model attacking the Orca boat. Also attached is a printed tile with Chief Brody’s famous line (“You’re gonna need a bigger boat”) to the base to complete this nostalgic and playful centerpiece. Alternatively, the Shark can be displayed separately from the boat, on its own stand.

Gosh, that LEGO Spielberg set is possibly the most life-changing product that I have ever owned...and it wasn't even that good 🤣

I wonder if he has a room in his house just full of sets based off his movies? Billionaires have to have hobbies.
I usually roll my eyes at people pretending sequels they don't like don't exist but that is actually a really good joke about the pitiful LEGO Indiana Jones revival.
This is an absolute banger of a set and I can’t wait to add it to my collection. Especially since Jaws is one of my all time favourites. “It’s only an island if you look at it from the water” 😂

That makes a lot of sense.
Jaws was THE first blockbuster. Nice set. Great vid. Didn’t realize how much lego and Spielberg have been joined together like two bricks.🤠
Great video, always LOVE when the OG Spielberg Studios sets are brought up. And that JAWS set genuinely looks fantastic.
Surprised you didnt even briefly mention the tons of Spielberg easter eggs in the lego jurassic world game
Great video
You really did a great job creating a narrative of collaboration creating opportunities for other collaborations. Very cool video.
Great breakdown.
I think an E.T. set is almost a guarantee at this point. They already have the figure and one of the most iconic shots in cinema to make a diorama of, so it’s only a matter of time. Close Encounters of the Third Kind definitely has potential too, and it’s in the same era of Spielberg’s more family friendly classics. I think you could make an incredible set out of Minority Report, but that film isn’t quite as popular as the other Spielberg films that have gotten Lego sets based on them. Catch Me If You Can is one of Spielberg’s best movies of the 21st century, and I’d love minifigures, but I don’t know what you’d really make a set out of from that. Spielberg’s remake of West Side Story has incredible set pieces that could make great dioramas, but the subject matter of racism and gang war might be too violent, and if they were to do West Side Story, they’d probably go for nostalgia and do the 60’s film. And it goes without saying that The Color Purple, Saving Private Ryan, and especially Schindler’s List are never getting Lego sets. They’re some of his best films, especially the latter two, but I think you’re more likely to see a dog elected president than Lego officially releasing a concentration camp set. And the museum exhibit doesn’t count, that was a fan build that they accidentally endorsed in the 90’s.
So upsetting Indiana Jones got shafted by Lego. At least Jaws is finally getting the treatment and maybe if we get a Close Encounters set the classic Spielberg collection will be complete.

@@godinacape yes, but they revived the line only to make a minimal number of sets and cancel one of them. The potential was insanely high and they flubbed it.
9:14 that or the designers were nostalgic & used Dimensions to add those characters, that were not popular enough to get their own game or sets. maybe, that's part of why Dimensions failed
haha, super good video
Jaws is my FAVORITE horror movie.
Back to the Future is not a Spielberg movie 😉 (although he was one of the producers) 1:04

Indeed, Back to the Future is from Robert Zemeckis. Often mistaken for a Spielberg movie.
I like the set a lot. I'll very likely get it, but not immediately. I'll wait for a nice discount or promotion.
You didn't mention that the Steven Spielberg Movie Maker Set was based on the San Diego sequence from The Lost World: Jurassic Park.
I was almost 2 years old when Jaws came out. It was the first movie I ever saw in a theater (but I don’t remember it) I only got to go to it because my dad wanted to hide beer in the diaper bag.

Did he crush his beer can like Quint?
If we could get something from Close Encounters, that would be amazing!!
FTR, Spielberg recommended Chris Columbus for the Harry Potter films… and Columbus (wrote, gremlins, directed home alone, Mrs doubtfire, and the night at the museum movies) was a long time Spielberg protégé.
Spielberg was also tied into the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles series

Whoosh.
Spielberg was also an executive producer on 'Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny' though there were no LEGO sets tied to that film.
@5:15 The plot of Jurassic Park III is that a pair of divorced parents hire Allen Grant to help them find their son, who got lost after a boating accident on Site B. While there, Grant discovers that InGen has continued to make new dinosaurs despite publicly saying they had stopped following the events of the Lost World.
Loved this video! Honestly probably the best review we’re going to get of the _Jaws_ set - it looks like the kind of set where a more typical review is redundant, because we can see all we need to know about the build, display value, etc., just by looking at a couple good photos. But this was really informative and interesting. I knew about all of those sets, but not about some of Spielberg’s involvements in movies that don’t have his name on them. And even for the obvious ones I’d never realized just how much of TLG’s licensed sets tie back to Spielberg. Really interesting perspective.

Well, “Spielberg” is German, meaning “play mountain”. In German they typically refer to “Lego steine”, which is literally “Lego stones”, rather than “Lego bricks”. Mountains are made of stone. So I think there’s already a solid connection between “play mountain” and “Lego stones”, without needing to change his name. 😉

It's such a shame they never made an indianna jones 5 back in 2013. Any time past then harrison would have been to old to make a good star, they really missed their chance.
I just don't like that they are picking and choosing what they say it allowed and what is not. No churches or religious buildings, Notre Dame. No horror movies, Jaws.
