LEGO Shackton's Lifeboat GWP (40729) leaked

Set name: Shackton's Lifeboat

Set number: 40729

Price: GWP

Pieces: 232

Available: 29th November 2024

Another new LEGO set has been leaked today and this time it's the Shackton's Lifeboat set which will be a free GWP when you purchase the new Endurance Ship set which is due to be released on Black Friday (29th November 2024).

The set is based on the lifeboat (named James Caird) that the captain of The Endurance, Sir Ernest Shackleton, used to obtain rescue for him and crew of The Endurance.

I feel like LEGO has really taken its GWP's to a new level recently and this will definitely entice people to buy The Endurance Ship when it's released. Shackton's Lifeboat is made up of 232 pieces and comes with 2 minifigures, one being Sir Ernest Shackleton and the other being a member of the crew. I was thinking when The Endurance was leaked that it would have been nice if it included Shackleton, so I feel like this set is a must have just for that minifigure.

It's not clear how long this GWP promotion will run for, probably just while stocks last. Once we have an official reveal from LEGO we'll post more details and better images.
