A new series of Lego Yellow Submarine Beatles set is being released soon.
The popular yellow bricks will now embody George Harrison, John Lennon, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney. They will be released on November 1 and will retail for $60, allowing parents to share their love for the world’s most successful band of all time with their children.
The Lego Yellow Submarine set will feature the actual marine vessel, as well as mini figurines of each of the Beatles stars. Lego contributor Kevin Szeto designed the figures, which includes more than 550 pieces.
He had to get a total of at least 10,000 signatures on a website for Lego to even consider bringing the Yellow Submarine to life. He succeeded at this, and Lego green-lit the project sometime last year.
Now, it is finally being released and it will mark one of the hottest products with the yellow bricks of all time, along with superheroes such as Batman, Star Wars, Superman and more.
The concept of the Lego Yellow Submarine was borrowed from the famous — or infamous to some — 1968 film that starred the four Beatles as themselves in a movie that came at the height of their success.
The film was directed by George Dunning and it has a 7.4/10 rating on IMDB, making it a critical success. The film was quite colorful, coming out in a time when the Beatles were fascinated by bright pastel colors.
