Perfect timing! My dad was an electrical engineer on Concorde and has just gotten into Lego since he doesn't have the dexterity for Airfix anymore
Seen two of them he did a good job
Thats awesome dude!
That’s awesome! Your dad sounds like a really cool dude
🧢
You dad sounds awesome!!!!
Kinda sad that young people don't know about Concorde. My Dad took me to the airport in Auckland in 1986 to see it - never forget it. Sadly a poorly maintained 1970's aircraft (a DC10) that dropped debris on the runway and caused a fatal accident that killed a lot of very rich people (and thus a lot of legal suits), plus the horrific fuel costs of running it brought it to an end.
Pretty sure this guy is an exception for his age.
Concord is a nice little town in California
There’s a huge air and space museum right next to where Brickfair VA is every year that has a Concorde…
The less known about that Cold War era pterodactyl the better!🙄
@@teamgeist3328 whoops, corrected thanks for pointing it out.
The concept of someone not knowing what the concorde was insane to me until this video
I thought it was pretty standard knowledge, I'm 23, but I think I remember learning about it in school or from an aviation book.
@@RealTonyMontanaI'm 19 and knew about the Concorde. I swear schools are failing some of these people.
Just american things
why would you ever learn about concorde at school? this is a parenting issue, people are not being taught by their parents at an early age to be intrigued by the world that came before them @@user-ur3xm2db7m
@@RealTonyMontanaI've got 3 year old girl (and maybe this will have changed by the time she's interested and learning about things like aviation) and I can wait to feel how surreal it will be, telling her about Concorde. Like we USED to be able to cross the Atlantic in 3 hours. Now we can't. Like we went backwards or something. I know it's not quite that simple but still. For an aircraft designed in the 60s with pencils and slide rules to be our aviation magnum opus! Wild
its really crazy how far lego has come with model designs I would love them to redo the 787 Dreamliner or the 747
Yeah that 787 looks horrible the whole thing is just studs
@@njez7563I think it looks really cool actually. Something about how it looks so “Lego” I guess.
@@noaho0862 I can where you're coming from
A380!!
this is like a UCS set almost, love it, even the price is very good! Nice to see Lego not money grabbing on this like some other sets lately. Landing gear is cool, and being able to manipulate it and move it around and it hold together is huge too, means itll be easy to hang from fishing line and not worry. The stand is also a huge step up for Lego and very nice
Hearing how you never heard of the Concorde, David, it hurt a little
How did you not know what Concorde was??? 😳😳😳
I do wish they'd included the pieces to have an option of having the undercarriage hidden if you're displaying it in flight.
I'm 43 (so it was operating when I was a kid) but I am surprised to hear there are younger people who don't know what the Concorde was.
@@jirskyrjenkins1959 I'm 23, and I was fascinated by Concorde as a kid, also little disappointed I would never see one fly. I was surprised to hear David didn't know what Concorde was.
I've seen pictures but I've never really looked into in until this video. I'm 22
I had a great time building this as well. This is the first set I've seen with orange "scaffolding" elements to help with keeping the build stable during construction. Also, having a length 8 axle sticking out of the back of this build for 200 straight steps until you remove it to put the tail on blew my mind. Lots of really great Lego engineering going on here, and the final result is just beautiful.
You feel old when people don't know what the Concorde is
Hah, that's exactly what I was thinking. As a kid I used to see them pass over Windsor to land at London Heathrow.
@@mattylamb658 did you ever get to ride in it? Really wish I had the opportunity to fly in one.
@@user-op8fg3ny3j Never to fly unfortunately. I did see around one of the test prototypes in a museum, it was fascinating. Very cramped inside!
I honestly never thought that lego would make something this large at a cheaper price if this set was given a bigger budget it would be humongous
200 dollars! That's so cheap for how big it is
@@reazyy9667 guys this is crazy expensive...
@@JohnJonnyBerry not at all, 200 usd isn't that expensive, we have all those huge sets for 500,600 dollars, but 300 dollars for something so big? Crazy
@@reazyy9667 and then have a look to the asian brands (or other european like Cobi) where you literally get 6000 parts for 200€
Calling the Concorde cheap is just stupid
@@RealThorebut cobi’s quality is worse than lego. And by asian what do you mean? Those fake lego sets that are terrible?
Absolutely LOVE this set! Im into my aviation as much as Aaron, so this is a dream set for me. I can't get over how large this set is for the price... it's mind boggling! Great review David! ♥
Waiting for a review on this, my uncle was an engineer on it so i really wanted to see this.
So was my dad! And he's just gotten into Lego in the last few weeks
If yall are cousins just say that 😅
@SkyKid002 hahaha, maybe I'll have to check with my uncle then
I really hope that the Concord does well. I bought the Shuttle and love it. I'd love to see them release a SR-71 Blackbird at somepoint.
😒They won't because it's a military plane. Lego is strictly against war-related stuff which sucks bc those are the coolest builds.
I had the F-18 Blue Angels Lego set a while ago. They could do the NASA SR-71 variant.
also about the speed of concorde, like you mentioned, because it was faster than the earth's rotation, you could watch the sunset in london, fly to new york and watch the sunset again there.
As an airplane snob and a huge Lego fan. I’m not exaggerating when I say this may be my favorite set of all time.
Props to David for doing his homework here ❤
Airplane enthusiasts are going to make this a top seller. LEGO knew exactly what they were doing. Hopefully an updated Wright Flyer comes soon too.
I truly hope this begins an Icons sub-series with aircraft. Imagine a 747 in Lego form and the quality of this set.
Cool thing about the Space Shuttle size comparison is that the two Lego sets are very close to scale with each other.
I'm getting this set soon. I'm glad Lego to doing Real Commercial planes. I plan to make a personal LEGO plane museum in my house to fill these sets with.
It's nice to see you bring your high-quality reviewing skills to non-SW related sets. Keep it up!
One of my favourite childhood memories was looking up and seeing Concorde fly overhead after it had taken off from Heathrow... and to top it off, I was at Legoland!
2:14 whoa there David!
Hope lego release more aircraft from a380 to b777-300ER to b747 or s330 or a320
Funny randomly generated codes.
In 1999 I was one of the kids that paraded through Edinburgh to celebrate the opening of the Scottish Parliament. The highlight was having Concorde fly overhead at 1k ft flanked by the Red Arrows. Of course, in the days before camera phones so I didn’t get a video.
I always have found memories of it on what seemed to be every Sunday at about 4pm taking off from Heathrow Airport and it then flying over my parents house.
My grandfather was an electronics engineer and part of the team that created the fly by wire system on the Concorde prototype. That and the TSR2. Both now sit next to eachother at Duxford Air Museum near London. He liked lego and he would have definitely liked this.
yesss i’ve been waiting for your review (i’m an avgeek so i’m definitely picking this up, possibly even 2)
Awesome review, I love this set! Definitely going to pick it up this Christmas!
5:42 holy crap, that's one huge set. Didn't have a good impression until I saw that side by side.
2:13
You are wild… I’m clipping that part so hard
it is a MAMMOTH
I love how you did some real research about the plane prior to making the video it makes me super happy as an avgeek myself to see lego making one of the most iconic and one of my favorite planes.
The Lego Concord was so popular that it was running behind demand. Defo gonna get one soon it's absolutely beautiful. Thank you for this amazing review you have a new subscriber ❤
When I was young I loved plane’s especially unconventional ones like the Concorde and this set really takes me back
I’ve seen three static Concorde exhibits. Two prototype liveries in Yeovilton, Duxford & a BA Corcorde in Filton U.K. without doubt an incredible aeroplane. Just so beautiful. Well done Lego for going with the prototype livery. 👌🏻
This looks like a MOC. It’s so clean and smooth.
My grandad was a director at Manchester airport(at the time the ringway). When the Concorde flew there his office had the perfect view from where the Concorde pulled up. Can’t wait to get this.
What a fantastic set! Can not wait till next week when this set gets released as this is the one I've been waiting for in '23!
So stoked about this model, my only complaint is that it doesn’t allow you to have the classic British Airways or Air France liveries on it!
Recently, instructions for a British Airways livery was published online
@@gemini8project LINK!!!
Yes. I agree. The classic BA livery would have sealed the deal for me.
I’m so very glad you did your research on the Concorde and weren’t lazy like other you tubers. This vid is certified aviation enthusiast approved
Absolute gorgeous! I'm saving up for this set 🙌
Can't wait to have that set. Only thing is now. We need a red arrow stunt jet to have them in formation on the shelf 😅
As a Concorde pilot in training I love it! great set! There will never be another one like it! ---- NO Bumps NO Bangs Concorde!
Can’t wait to watch this one! Bet it’s gonna be 🔥
I usually don’t like how high Lego sets have been (though their design quality has certainly improved in the past year or two) but this is a set I’d definitely pick up for its price this is close to the type of detail you’d get from an actual plastic model but built in Lego I do wish it can with a a pilot and co pilot mini figure just for display
"Until I did a little bit of research" AKA Aaron fangirling all over this thing 😂😊 Great review David!!
Having been on, in, and around two separate concord planes, this model is so beautiful, and very very accurate
My grandparents flew on a Concorde. They were sad to see it go. I showed my grandma the lego set, and she was amazed about how it looked so much like it.
been waiting for a quality aircraft build! will definitely get this one!
Awesome!
Love this set and it’s huge
This is the second lego set I'm going to buy. (since I don't really care about mini figs, play sets, etc...) The first was the Titanic. They both feel to me like they have that presence when you walk into a room and they're there. Love it.
Defo buying this thanks 🙏
duuude this is so cool!
They really need to do more iconic large scale planes
Salivating until I get mine when it's released in Australia!! (great review btw) 👍
Dude, no offense, but flying from New York to Paris takes between 7.5 and 8 hours with a conventional airplane, not 6. That's what made the Concorde so appealing, because it cut the trip down to less than half the flying time, and helped you avoid jet lag
Why would he take offence? When he said it I thought ‘that’s not much of a difference’
@@rogerhalt3991 I just wanted to make sure he didn't think I was being a dick.
Thank you for the video.
I love this model. Can’t wait.
I can't unsee the missing cockpit window, especially when they managed to model the protruding section of the fuselage underneath the windows so well.
Man, Concorde is one of my favourite airplanes of all time, I admired it ever since i was little. I remember being sad that they no longer fly
Very nice set
It baffles me that every lego American utuber who has reviewed this set doesn't know what the concorde is wow
Can't wait to get this set!
Woah! Beautiful
Fun fact:
Phil Collins took the Concorde from London to Philadelphia so he could perform at both Live Aid concerts within the same day in July 1985
Yo what a Concorde set?! Its so sick
The yellowing of the white pieces is not really an issue of sunlight, it is more an issue with temperature coming with sunlight. The UV-radiation helps to counter the yellowing. It is even more effective when bathing the pieces in hydrogen peroxide (keep the stuff far, far away from children und always wear protective gear when using hydrogen peroxide!!!) and using UV-radiation.
Superb set😊
My favourite bit is the toilet in the deatiled intertior area.
I remeber going to rhe Boeing museum of flight with my dad and every time we go we have to check out the Concorde they have. What a magnificent aircraft
Man I can’t wait to get this one ❤
Id love to see them take on other jets like the 747, a340, a350 etc
I grew up on Long Island in the 80s, and I remember that often during the summers, among the other planes flying over on their way from europe to JFK or LaGuardia, you would occasionally see a Concorde flying over. :D
I love both aviation and lego so much, this is like the best combo yet. Though i’d love an a330 or a380 lego the concorde is more than sufficient
A LEGO Concorde is something that I dreamed of, It's now finally come to reality.
God I can't wait for this set. I learned about the Concorde watching airplane accident videos. It was fraught with issues that eventually lead to it being fazed out. Only a few are left in Britain last i checked. But it's still a sick looking airplane
I think it looks amazing. Almost 100% smooth. Only thing that I’m turned off by is the cockpit area. Just a little lacking compared to the rest of the jet. Would have upgraded this to perfection with a custom molded piece that would have fit better. That’s a knit picking. Not big into planes but could see myself buying it.
Magnifique !
this looks good....next on my list!!!!!
Sooooo cool and looks like the real thing. I have seen it fly before and actuly been inside the plane
Same. Those were the days at the CDG Paris airport working with AF, sigh. Pilots were always hyper excited to fly this thing, understandably so.
You know it's a good day when Solid Brix Studios uploads a new video
2:14 “you feel every bit of those 40 inches” oh boy… 😂🤣
Already preordered!
I’m my opinion, this is perfect value for money!
My order coming tomorrow 😍
I will be receiving this set soon and hope that LEGO produces a SR-71 in a similar form factor.
I have been excited about this set since it was announced, can’t wait for it to be released. I have been in the aviation industry for 36 years and remember the last flight….
My only complaints with the set is the landing gear not having the covers and the drupe snoop glass not being able to be removed or retract but there’s only so much you can do with legos. It’s really an incredible set
Great video and when is the live builds will start me and my kids miss those videos always looking for new videos 👍👍
Just finished mine today! Now to find a shelf for it...
I love my Concorde Lego I will always love aviation,concorde is the best Lego icons thank you for reviewing this I love mine to thanks for reviewing this Lego build
Who doesn’t/wouldn’t know what Concorde is? This defo on my wanted list. Going to wait for double VIP on the lead up to Christmas and get it then as an early Christmas gift to one’s self.
“You might be looking at this airplane and wondering what the heck is the Concorde?”
No, YOU’RE old!
The thing is, this set was somethig you would expect from bricklink or brickmania, not from the LEGO grup
Sad that it's so unknown. My father was fortunate enough to fly in one, he said he would never forget it. Unfortunately, due to fatal accidents and fuel costs, it was shut down. Such a cool plane, never gonna forget watching my dad take off in one.
A fatal accident* from what i remember there was only one crash on take off that was catastrophic and even that had nothing to do with the actual plane.. something got stuck in the landing gear which ignited and the flames spread to the fuselage which caused it to explode, if i remember correctly, i was a huge concord nerd but like 20 something years ago
@@matijakokovic2681Yup. It crashed into a French restaurant I think. I'm not sure that that's the reason they stopped flying it though, more likely it just wasn't profitable enough.
@@laupoke Crashed into a hotel just after takeoff in 2000. Among the things I remember from news of the crash is a photo of the flaming Concorde just after liftoff, and the footage shot by a man driving down a parallel road seeing its doomed flight. That was the only fatal accident it had, though there were numerous incidents involving burst tires for decades beforehand.
That was one of the straws that broke the camel's back; the other big one was 9/11, because many of the victims also would've flown on the Concorde regularly. The last one was simply higher fuel prices, and improvements in business and telecommunications made it obsolete.
@@matijakokovic2681 it was a strip of metal from the engine of a Continental DC-10 that somehow ended up on the runway. The tire ran it over, instantly puncturing it and causing a sizable chunk to impact the wing, igniting the fuel due to the shock of the hit.
This is probably one of those sets that I learn history from. I never knew what the concorde was until I saw the set.
I loved planes growing up, and would make countless paper airplanes (I even made 100 for a class project alone!). This certainly looks like something I might gift myself this Christmas. Lego's art designers did a wonderful time capturing its silhouette, and the engineers on this project did a perfect time taking the artists' work and making a beautiful and solid brick build.
Amazing set , can’t wait to buy … Viking village , need to look into that also loll
"you feel every bit of those 40 inches in length" 😜
That’s what she said. 😂😂😂
Lol
I knew someone else would think the same thing 😂
My jaw dropped when I saw this set, dont get very many lego sets I might have to get this one
The drop snoots!
I still remember how it was like to ride concordes. Let's just say it wasn't pleasant but definitely a life-saver at times.
