Maersk is a theme first released in 1974 focusing on cargo transportation. It includes eight sets so far, all based on a container-carrying vehicle. It is based upon the real world company, Maersk, which was established in 1904, and is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Details[edit | edit source]
The first Maersk set was released in 1974. It was a blue mini-scale container ship, which, because of its small size, did not include any minifigures. Since then, three trucks, three more ships, and a train have been made, with the newest set being a ship, 10241 Maersk Line Triple-E, which is released on January 1 2014. All of the sets have included light grey cargo containers. All three of the trucks have included a minifigure, although they varied greatly in their appearance. The train includes three minifigures, all of which have identical uniforms.
