Ahoy, brick builders! After a 12-year voyage across the studs, LEGO® Maersk is finally dropping anchor back in our collections. Get ready to welcome 40955 Maersk Dual-Fuel Container Vessel when it launches March 1, 2026!
This 1,516-piece beauty brings back one of LEGO's most nostalgic partnerships. Remember when two of Denmark's biggest companies (LEGO and Maersk) joined forces back in the 1970s? Well, the collab that brought us legendary sets like the 2014 Creator Expert Triple-E is back, and it's sailing in with serious sustainable credentials.
You'll be building the Ane Maersk, a real-world container ship that runs on green methanol. That's right, it's one of the most environmentally friendly ships cutting through ocean waves today, powered by a dual-fuel engine that can actually use green methanol.
Here's the stacking situation: This set will be exclusive to LEGO.com and official LEGO Stores. The price tag sits at €149.99 / $149.99 USD / $249.99 AUD / £139.99 / 1,050 DKK / 1,650 SEK / 630 PLN / 875 BRL. Is it steep for a mid-sized vessel? Maybe. But considering you're getting over 1,500 pieces of Danish shipping history mixed with LEGO heritage, that value proposition starts looking more seaworthy. The prices for Maersk employees are, however, more welcome with a 37% discount off the original price.
Now, longtime fans might be wondering: will we get that iconic Maersk Blue back? Sadly, no. The classic color isn't making a comeback with this release. The modern Maersk fleet updated their color, and LEGO stayed true to the contemporary look. A bit of a bummer for purists who remember those beautiful blue containers, but authenticity matters.
What makes this release extra special? The connection between LEGO and Maersk goes deep. Both companies are family-owned Danish powerhouses. Board members even sit on each other's teams! When you build this set, you're connecting decades of Danish innovation, from shipping containers to those satisfying clicks when pieces snap together.
Will you be adding this green-fueled giant to your fleet?
Your Burning Questions About LEGO® 40955 Maersk, Answered
Q: Where can I buy the LEGO® 40955 Maersk Dual-Fuel Container Vessel? This set is exclusive to LEGO.com and official LEGO Stores worldwide. You won't find it on supermarket shelves or third-party retailers, so your best bet is heading straight to the source when it launches March 1, 2026.
Q: Do Maersk employees get a discount on the LEGO® 40955 Maersk set? Great question, and the answer is yes, like the model Triple-E, Maersk employees are able to buy these sets with a discount, according to our sources the discount is around 37% in the HQ shop in Denmark.
Q: Is this the same Maersk Blue color from older LEGO® sets? Sadly, no. The beloved classic Maersk Blue that fans remember from sets dating back to the 1970s is not making a return here. LEGO® stayed true to the modern Maersk branding for the Ane Maersk vessel, so the color palette reflects the contemporary fleet rather than the nostalgic shade collectors love.
Q: How does this set compare to the 2014 LEGO® Maersk Triple-E? The 2014 Creator Expert 10241 Maersk Line Triple-E was a 1,518-piece flagship that became a grail set for ship lovers and AFOL collectors alike. The new 40955 Dual-Fuel Container Vessel comes in at 1,516 pieces, making it almost identical in size. The big difference this time is the real-world story behind the build, celebrating green methanol power and sustainable shipping, giving this one an extra layer of meaning beyond just looking great on a shelf.
