A LEGO® brick creation of a tugboat, a vessel that tows other ships. Named “Tugger 3,” it’s designed with the backstory of having towed cargo ships and cruisers for 35 years before retiring along with its captain.

What are the chances of it becoming a product?

This is the first time the creator Konajra has advanced to the review stage.

There have been quite a few LEGO® brick products with ship themes released recently, including the LEGO® Icons Titanic, LEGO® City Arctic Exploration Ship and Dock with Cargo Ship, and LEGO® Ideas Jaws.

Especially since LEGO® Ideas Jaws has just been released, it might be difficult for the tugboat to pass the review.

LEGO® Ideas’ sister project, the BrickLink Designer Program, has already produced a large fishing vessel through its initial crowdfunding effort. The tugboat might have a better chance of being realized through the BrickLink Designer Program[1].
