@@terminal9660 I mean, there'd be nothing wrong with a male Alex having a relationship with Steve either, just would mean that Alex wouldn't be his girlfriend... Also, canonically, Alex is gender neutral, as is Steve apparently, who was only accidentally Male according to Mojang. The name choice of Alex was due to wanting a gender neutral name so that both guys and girls could relate easily, Steve was mostly just a placeholder that stuck around.
I just checked my copy; it's not any thinner. It does actually have a small chip in it, likely from how I've torn down and rebuilt the set a few times. I think for a set that's meant for display, like the Saturn V, it's acceptable as you won't be messing with it too much. But for a set meant for play, it would be unacceptable as the brick could get damaged over time (or just would constantly get knocked out, as it's not all that secure).
The wedging of a plate vertically between studs is actually an encouraged practice in the Lego Architecture set (which is where I learned of this technique). Surprising then that it's considered "banned" since it was explicitly called out in the Architecture set which is all about encouraging people to expand their thinking and explore new techniques of building Lego models.
Sometimes they specially make pieces to fit in-between the studs like that too. For instance the tombstone in the haunted house set. They specially made that pice slightly thinner to not stress it. It’s feasible they did the same for the flag in the Saturn rocket as it’s such an expensive set designed to showcase the best LEGO has to offer
Tiles are allowed to be stuck between 2 studs in this way, but plates are not. That's because most tiles have a small indentation at the bottom to allow for the connection, while plates do not.
My Saturn V supposed to have 2 pre-printed pieces with “UNITED” and 2 with “STATES” on them. Instead, I received 3 “UNITED” an 1 “STATES”. Lego send the missing piece without asking any questions and without cost. Great service!
Wedging flat pieces between studs is still considered illegal, since the flat pieces are larger than the distance between studs, causing stress in the parts. However, they have begun producing pieces specifically meant to be wedged into studs which are thinner and that don't cause physical stress to the plastic. The moon lander flag is likely one of those.
@@shibasurfing what are you comparing it to? Regular piece might imply a 1x2 plate, a 1x2 jumper, or a 1x2 tile (which may or may not have a groove in the bottom)
@@TrolledBy yeah, i have calipers that measure down to hundredths of a millimeter and all the pieces I measured were consistently within a couple hundredths.
14:50 really reminds me of how surprisingly brittle those ball-socket pieces are (or were, I don't know if they've improved over the years). I remember having a number of Bionicle sets that had cracked or even broken ball-socket pieces as a result of using them a lot (though I remember some breaking just from a few uses) In all of my years of building lego sets, those ball-sockets are the only Lego pieces I have ever seen physically crack or break.
5:00 I remember doing this and being thrown off by the instructions too..I was like “is that legal” and Lego was like “I will make it legal”. They do that with a couple pieces around the bridge on the Lego Titanic I noticed too
That technique's legal when it's a tile, because they're marginally thinner than plates and don't have studs. It shows up in a good number of modern sets.
The only time guns are mentioned is just to show how clueless the wizard world is about them. Shame that there could be a lot of potential with how you would magic them to be way more effective at combat than wands.

A stick or a gun? And yes they can just take the gun off them with the powers of the wand but you just need a good trigger finger
I bought a lego set and when it came it was in shambles. All the pieces were broken apart and in bags. I don't know if this was a scam, but I was very disappointed to receive a box of pieces rather than the complete structure which I paid for. Lego I demand a refund.
When it comes to the Lego Lord Voldemort and his robes, I actually learnt that during the Deathly Hallows movies, the robes worn by Voldemort got lighter as the two movies progressed, signifying his downfall, the lighter/green robes could be a reference to that fact, as during the last part of the battle of Hogwarts, his robes are much paler and a green shade compared to previous appearances. Might be a mistake but it could just be a well placed ‘in-joke’/reference made during development.
That one with the police helicopter and the 'extra' minifigure isn't a mistake. It's actually quite common and is found in a few sets. The minifig that's standing on the darker blue background of the image is supposed to be observing the build in the rest of the image. It's a very subliminal thing that I guess some adults wouldn't pick up on. However, a child would totally pick up on it, as to a child the minifig isn't just a piece, it's a character that you interact with during play. This crossover is highlighted in the Lego Movie genre with the characters Benny and Emet.
15:07 Notice how the pieces are completely clean and lack any sort of fingerprints or scratches? That makes me think that they messed up the render. That ball-joint and socket may just be clipping into each other.
I once got a Lego advent calendar, and it had a mini train for the first box. Didn't seem like a problem until it was Christmas Eve and I opened the 24th box. Guess what it had inside. Another train.
For the "tile wedged between studs" thing, the banned technique is only for regular plates, tiles are fine when they're by themselves. This distinction was in the "illegal techniques" pdf as well iirc. Regular bricks can't do that because the studs get in each others way, whereas that isn't a problem with tiles.
On the Winter Village Station set featured in the catalogue, along with the missing roof piece, the clock is also incorrectly rotated 90 degrees, quite similar to the Hogwarts Clock Tower mess up.
Seeing that 'Yellow Castle' set front cover really hit me with a wave of nostalgia, that's a set my *dad* gave to me like, 15 years ago when i was growing up!
I've always wondered what's going on with that image of 4842... Voldemort's robes aren't the only mistake there; Dumbledore has an older face print, Snape has a wrong torso, Filch has a wrong hairpiece, torso and face and the dementors and the cat do not have faces at all.
There's more. McGonagall is missing her cape, Dumbledore has white hair (instead of light grey), and the dementors have a different, less tattered looking, cloak piece.
11:23 if you look at the clock, the image with the missing roof also has a mistake, it's turned where the 12 is at the 3 and so on XD seems LEGO has an issue with clocks
Im pretty sure the green robes for voldemort were just a color printing error because as you know when ink gets low on a printer and it trues to print black, it comes out fairly green ish, same thing would happen with the cape, it looks white but thats just an effect from the shading bot getting printed correctly so it appears white when it should be grey
And I think, they just messed up the white balance for this one minifigure. The head is completely white which says to me that they took white balance sample from the head color and this made the black into green.
it should be noted that the creases on his robes are black on the green robes and green on the black robes. if it is a printing mistake, then the creases should've likewise been a brighter shade of green, or invisible; definitely not black. so it might've actually just been a prototype figure
I actually had the imperial gunner minifigure in my hand as you showed the harry potter advent calendar mistake. Looks like Hogwarts serves the empire. Lol
I remember getting a space shuttle set where the very first brick that formed the belly of the shuttle was mis-sized. At first I thought it was a problem with the manual itself, as it showed an uneven amount of studs and was something like 13 or 15 studs in length. But all the other pages showed the same thing. I decided to go ahead and try to make it, but it legitimately could not be built properly without that extra stud in length.
5:11 the big lunar landers (separate lego set) flag is also kinda weird, because the flag is inside a flat 1 x 1 Lego piece with a hole and if the flag accidentally breaks of from the plate with the Lego piece and you try to connect it again by pushing on the pole, the flat Lego piece will simply slide up the flags pole, which means you have to put the flat piece on the plate first and then the flag in it. Also the small lunar lander gives me anxiety, because the rocket fell and broke several times (Even though the pieces landed on carpet I could fully repair the rocket without building instructions) and the flag and astronauts are the smallest pieces.
@@Ieat10batteryacid_1 I can very much confirm that your hypothesis was very much incorrect and I would like to display a large amount of discipline to you.
5:17 the tile is not an illegal building technique because tiles have notches on the bottom to easily take them off of a brick or something bc of this it does not put stress on the plate
There seems to be another error at 13:04. At step 82 it wants you to use a 1x1 round tile and 2 1x2 clear panels. However, if you look closely at step 81, you can see those exact pieces are already added in the set.
re: chima the camera can looses focus with larger figures, or maybe the pose wasn't working with the arm, so you take 2 pictures, the compose them into a larger one. for some reason the compositing got mixed up in box print
11:11 there's another mistake. Look at the clock face piece. On the left, the clock is in the right position, 12 on top, 3 on the right, 6 on the bottom, and 9 on the left. Its a little hard to see, but the one on the catalog is rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Literally the same mistake from the harry potter one.
There's actually another interesting error with the Hogwarts Clock Tower set: the "4" is not the correct Roman numeral. It should be "IV" but in the set it's "IIII". I checked and it's not like this in the movie, which has the correct "IV".
@@Onyx_TheyThem The screenshot I looked at was from the third movie (Prisoner of Azkaban), but I looked at some other screenshots from the movies, and I think there IS actually a clock that has the wrong roman numeral in the movies (which one it is and what movie it's from I can't say), but it is NOT the Hogwarts clock tower. So I think Lego probably based it on the wrong one.
IIII is actually not a mistake, it is used on real clocks This is because IV was also used to represent the Roman god Jupiter, so they didn't want to use it on their clocks (it was seen as disrespectful). Therefore they created and used IIII instead.
15:02 The ball socket clasp element is actually fully there but it’s actually underneath the ball joint so the arm apparently seems to be a separate image that wasn’t edited in correctly! :)
The fireplace piece has two red arrows. You can see the red arrow on the right is partly obscured by a grey brick to the right. This indicates the piece needs to go next to the grey brick, not on top of the flame.
Bro, if I got the Star Wars minifigure in the Harry Potter advent calendar, as soon as I saw it, I would have absolutely died laughing for like 5 minutes.
My Lego Star Wars advent calendar was missing two builds, and instead they both contained the same one: a speeder from earlier in the calendar! But Lego is good about these kinds of things, and they always make it right :)
Thank you, this video just took me on a trip down the memory lane to trying to remember the set for a rescue helicopter I was gifted for my 5th or 6th birthday. Turned out to be the 2003 coast guard helicopter set 7044. Unfortunately after I built it I tore it down for parts as I did with pretty much every set that got into my hands. The longest lasting pieces of it were the top rotor blades.
When I was younger, LEGO club members got sent set catalogues with all the latest sets.[they don’t do it anymore coz there are too many people] and a lot of the time, the names on the character lists were confused. For example, Kai might be called Garmadon and Garmadon would be called Kai
The only real mistake I have is the misprinted Flux Capacitor tile from the Lego Back to the Future Delorean (21103) where they misspelled shield as 'sheild'
For the Saturn V Rocket it could just be paying an homage to their old sets being that the Saturn V rocket was flown from the late 60s to the early 70s
Tiles are thinner than plates, they have been using tiles in between studs for ages but they don't like using them because the connection sucks and they chip if you knock into them by mistake.
What makes it strange is that the green robes for Voldemort isn’t even inaccurate. As the movies progress and more Horcrux’s were destroyed, his robes faded in color, going from a dark black to a faded black with a greenish tint. Makes you wonder
13:27 "You can't even follow really what's happening here." Unless you were trained from a young age to read those instructions. We never found them confusing. I owned this specific set as a kid, BTW.
I remember when I was younger, there where these little sets with some small cars or something, often where only 10 or 20 steps instructions included which obviously skiped some parts or just seem unreadlable, but they where somehow clear and I never had problems with it.
13:26 I don't think this is confusing. This is how instructions were back then. When LEGO encouraged their customers to use the brain during building and when instructions were booklets and not whole books. Yes we had to manage to add more than just 2 bricks each building step.
Something interesting about the green robes Voldemort: in the book “lego Harry Potter building the magical world” on a page about the set, it actually says that the set comes with an exclusive green Voldemort. So maybe there were plans to release the green one that never happened? Who knows

its more that for kids they don't really support it, its true that it "stresses" but it used to be used quite a bit
For some pieces that weren't made for it they still fit but they'll put stress on the pieces that could lead to breaking.
I think there's some confusion because the studded flat pieces do cause stress- but the plates without the studs are totally fine
Sometimes they specially make pieces to fit in-between the studs like that too. For instance the tombstone in the haunted house set. They specially made that pice slightly thinner to not stress it.

9:17 did anyone else notice that he “ skipped one year back” from 2018 to 2007
One of my lego instructions had several of the pages in reverse order. I was still able to complete the set by flipping backwards through the manual.

Speaking of mistakes:
9:05 "2018"
9:17 "2007"

I remember getting a space shuttle set where the very first brick that formed the belly of the shuttle was mis-sized. At first I thought it was a problem with the manual itself, as it showed an uneven amount of studs and was something like 13 or 15 studs in length. But all the other pages showed the same thing. I decided to go ahead and try to make it, but it legitimately could not be built properly without that extra stud in length.

I once got an Infinity War set, but instead of Star Lord's hair piece, it was a random brown brick...
13:48 why does it look like you just photoshopped the arrows out and than at the last second put them back on?
Uh oh. That looks pretty suspicious. :/
Oof
or maybe those arrows are added above the picture to show how it should be done
Last second? Idk about that, he could’ve just showed the arrows a little bit before the fade out to make it more clear
It doesn’t look like that.
The first one may or may not be an accident. That would give true fans some insight to lego spaces and their ways
11:29 did anyone else notice that on the winter wonderland set in the catalog picture the clock is rotated 90 degrees to the right???
yep, came to the comments for this.
yes, same here. Was going to comment on it but you beat me to it.
lol
5:11 the big lunar landers (separate lego set) flag is also kinda weird, because the flag is inside a flat 1 x 1 Lego piece with a hole and if the flag accidentally breaks of from the plate with the Lego piece and you try to connect it again by pushing on the pole, the flat Lego piece will simply slide up the flags pole, which means you have to put the flat piece on the plate first and then the flag in it.
Also the small lunar lander gives me anxiety, because the rocket fell and broke several times (Even though the pieces landed on carpet I could fully repair the rocket without building instructions) and the flag and astronauts are the smallest pieces.

This mainly tells me that Lego doesn't make many mistakes. 😄
“Mistakes that we’re never intended to be discovered by consumers or lego fans”
Consumers... were we supposed to be eating the sets all along?
Mhm..
🤣
@@Ieat10batteryacid_1 I can very much confirm that your hypothesis was very much incorrect and I would like to display a large amount of discipline to you.
Consumers is a term used for people who purchase goods and services for personal use. Lego is a good.

I love how there’s nothing wrong with the thumbnail and if you actually took 5 seconds to look at it you’d realize that too.

I feel like that clock tower error might have happened because the designer didn't understand roman numerals
For real, that could be an honest mistake lol
Considering they used 'IIII' instead of 'IV' for the number 4 might actually confirm that
@@elijahblondin |||| isn't a terrible choice for 4 it used to be a thing but then again it's redundant.
5:17 the tile is not an illegal building technique because tiles have notches on the bottom to easily take them off of a brick or something bc of this it does not put stress on the plate
There seems to be another error at 13:04.
At step 82 it wants you to use a 1x1 round tile and 2 1x2 clear panels. However, if you look closely at step 81, you can see those exact pieces are already added in the set.
re: chima
the camera can looses focus with larger figures, or maybe the pose wasn't working with the arm, so you take 2 pictures, the compose them into a larger one. for some reason the compositing got mixed up in box print
13:46 looks like LEGO aren't the only ones making editing errors ;)
;)
5:11 that is ok, when it has a little "wedge" under it(if you don't place it like that)
11:11 there's another mistake. Look at the clock face piece. On the left, the clock is in the right position, 12 on top, 3 on the right, 6 on the bottom, and 9 on the left. Its a little hard to see, but the one on the catalog is rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Literally the same mistake from the harry potter one.
Its cuz the clock can be twisted the hands are in the same position but the 1 clock on the box i think is is correct but the built one is twisted
@@vortop1017 no cause theres also xii and ix ... on the clock so it is indeed a mistake
Anyone else catch the glimpse of the script at 13:17?
"Steam Cargo Train set - 1985 terrible instructions end up building 2 legs - unclear."
Lol yea
lol
11:24 the clock is turned sideways again
image on the right clock is turn 1/4 turn to the right
Just reviewed one clock to miss the next clock that were both clocked wrong.
So that is how the time turners work...
I've also noticed that the clock is positioned differently in the set and catalog with the Winter Village Station.
There's actually another interesting error with the Hogwarts Clock Tower set: the "4" is not the correct Roman numeral. It should be "IV" but in the set it's "IIII". I checked and it's not like this in the movie, which has the correct "IV".
@@Onyx_TheyThem The screenshot I looked at was from the third movie (Prisoner of Azkaban), but I looked at some other screenshots from the movies, and I think there IS actually a clock that has the wrong roman numeral in the movies (which one it is and what movie it's from I can't say), but it is NOT the Hogwarts clock tower. So I think Lego probably based it on the wrong one.
Classically, It is cómmon for clocks to represent the 4 as IIII. I dont know why though
@@hajaranka9093 right, bioshock infinite has it too
IIII is actually not a mistake, it is used on real clocks This is because IV was also used to represent the Roman god Jupiter, so they didn't want to use it on their clocks (it was seen as disrespectful). Therefore they created and used IIII instead.
15:02
The ball socket clasp element is actually fully there but it’s actually underneath the ball joint so the arm apparently seems to be a separate image that wasn’t edited in correctly! :)
ah yes, my favorite part in harry potter, when everyone realized professor McGonagall was just a star wars imperial gunner in disguise
I'm literally 17 and I still have my lego to this day and I still enjoy vids that are all about lego even the video games of lego
The fireplace piece has two red arrows. You can see the red arrow on the right is partly obscured by a grey brick to the right. This indicates the piece needs to go next to the grey brick, not on top of the flame.
Still, could have done with a small panel with another angle, just to make it abundantly clear.
2:46 maybe the crook was flying the helicopter

Bro, if I got the Star Wars minifigure in the Harry Potter advent calendar, as soon as I saw it, I would have absolutely died laughing for like 5 minutes.
My Lego Star Wars advent calendar was missing two builds, and instead they both contained the same one: a speeder from earlier in the calendar! But Lego is good about these kinds of things, and they always make it right :)
Thank you, this video just took me on a trip down the memory lane to trying to remember the set for a rescue helicopter I was gifted for my 5th or 6th birthday. Turned out to be the 2003 coast guard helicopter set 7044. Unfortunately after I built it I tore it down for parts as I did with pretty much every set that got into my hands.
The longest lasting pieces of it were the top rotor blades.

In addition to the missing roof piece, the clock face is not aligned correctly.
Tbh it would be kinda funny if they "missed" a part on the building in the catalog each year. Just a little inside joke to search for

When I was younger, LEGO club members got sent set catalogues with all the latest sets.[they don’t do it anymore coz there are too many people] and a lot of the time, the names on the character lists were confused. For example, Kai might be called Garmadon and Garmadon would be called Kai
Set catologues still exist, in my country you can easily get them free in shops where you can also buy Lego
@@Job_Tube do you live in sweden? Because there's lego catologues in sweden.
@@GresOsten No, but it is in europe
He meant the lego club magazine not the lego catalogue books
Yeah the magazines were the pages are just nothing but the latest sets. They still make them but you have to pick them up at the store

The only real mistake I have is the misprinted Flux Capacitor tile from the Lego Back to the Future Delorean (21103) where they misspelled shield as 'sheild'
For the Saturn V Rocket it could just be paying an homage to their old sets being that the Saturn V rocket was flown from the late 60s to the early 70s
Tiles are thinner than plates, they have been using tiles in between studs for ages but they don't like using them because the connection sucks and they chip if you knock into them by mistake.

What makes it strange is that the green robes for Voldemort isn’t even inaccurate. As the movies progress and more Horcrux’s were destroyed, his robes faded in color, going from a dark black to a faded black with a greenish tint. Makes you wonder
13:27 "You can't even follow really what's happening here."
Unless you were trained from a young age to read those instructions. We never found them confusing. I owned this specific set as a kid, BTW.
I remember when I was younger, there where these little sets with some small cars or something, often where only 10 or 20 steps instructions included which obviously skiped some parts or just seem unreadlable, but they where somehow clear and I never had problems with it.
13:26 I don't think this is confusing. This is how instructions were back then. When LEGO encouraged their customers to use the brain during building and when instructions were booklets and not whole books. Yes we had to manage to add more than just 2 bricks each building step.
Something interesting about the green robes Voldemort: in the book “lego Harry Potter building the magical world” on a page about the set, it actually says that the set comes with an exclusive green Voldemort. So maybe there were plans to release the green one that never happened? Who knows
5:14 you see, when you say "Break the rules" this is more of what i expect
Lego: You can build anything with lego.
