"The Ocean Mini-Submarine earns a modest BrickScore of 62.1 — the hammerhead shark mold is a genuine highlight and the best reason to buy, but both reviewers agree the set feels overpriced and underbuilt, making a sale price the smarter entry point."
Both reviewers land in "mixed" territory on the Ocean Mini-Submarine, giving it a middling BrickScore of 62.1. The set is universally praised for its minifigure quality and for including the new 2020 hammerhead shark mold — widely noted as the cheapest way to acquire it — but it is consistently criticized for poor cost-per-piece value, an extremely short and unengaging build, and a submarine design that feels unfinished. Both reviewers recommend waiting rather than buying at full price.
Where they split: True North Bricks scores the minifigure at a perfect 100 and is more enthusiastic about its universal kid appeal, while Bouwsteentjes is more tempered (65 on minifigs) and focuses more on the submarine's structural shortcomings. The overall gap in verdict (71 vs. 55) reflects True North Bricks' greater weight on the hammerhead shark's uniqueness.
"The resulting cost-per-brick is $0.34, which is the most expensive I have ever seen for a City set."
