When a sea monster and a fisherman tangle it’s up to The Beatles to come to the rescue in their #LEGO Yellow Submarine! — LEGO (@LEGO_Group) 12 October 2016 The idea behind the toy came from Lego enthusiast, Kevin Szeto. He said: “As an amateur musician and songwriter, I have always been drawn to the music of The Beatles. The creation of the Yellow Submarine model was really my way of showing my affection for The Beatles, as well as trying to pay a small tribute to The Beatles phenomenon. The Yellow Submarine is bright, fun, and colourful, which also made it a good subject to translate into LEGO form” The set contains figures which represent John, Paul, George and Ringo as well as Jeremy, who is a fictional character from the film The set will cost £49.00 and will be available in stores worldwide Ringo Star and Paul McCartney, who are the only two remaining Beatles members alive, at a film premiere in September Lego designer, Justin Ramsden, said: “I watched the film when I was younger and was really inspired by how it oozed so much imagination, comparable to how I view LEGO elements.

Released in 1968, “Yellow Submarine” is an animated musical fantasy film inspired by the music of the Beatles, arguably the greatest rock band of all time.
This model is inspired by the iconic submarine from which the film (and associated soundtrack album) gets its title. Dimensions: Length 26 cm x Width 5.5 cm x Height (w/stand) 16 cm Number of Pieces: 409 This model was built using LEGO Digital Designer (LDD). It features a functioning propeller and rudder, as well as a set of periscopes that can rotate to different angular positions. Perhaps the funnest part of this model, however, is that the top cover of the chassis is removable to reveal a cockpit that fits all four minifig Beatles members. Note that Technic blocks with holes and transparent round 1x1 plates were used for the windows. It is difficult to tell from the digital renders, but through the windows you can see whether the vessel is occupied or not. Though the submarine fits the minifigs nicely, I made the submarine much smaller than it would otherwise be if it were “true” minifig scale. In “true” minifig scale, the submarine would be considerably larger and would require many more pieces.
At the current size and piece count, this is a very manageable sized model for play as well as display. The custom minifigs of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr were based on their respective likenesses featured on the film poster / soundtrack cover. A few exceptions were made by necessity or by choice. For example, some colours were altered and colour schemes simplified due to limitations of LDD. George's longer hair reflects him during a different phase of the Beatles, but was used here to help distinguish him from the other three members. Comments, questions, and constructive feedback of this model is greatly appreciated.
