The fact that Donny kept this to only about 7k pieces is amazing. The amount of gold metallic pieces would certainly bump up the price, but if offered as a retail set I would jump at this.
insane that it is so big for only 7k pieces. Without a license Lego could literally sell this for like $550 retail. MAD
Let’s see what other brick companies think of this.
@@LizZard1988more like 7-800 would be my guess
@@herrbanane you can be sure some shitty chinese farm is already ripping the design off, selling the set soon with sub par pieces and bad clutch power
@@LizZard1988 Yup and then people can buy it without getting scammed by overpriced lego markups
This isn't even a LEGO build anymore...
It's straight up ART! Seriously, this thing is just incredible, and the techniques to pull this off are both simple yet genius in their design. This is museum quality stuff right here.
So lego builds aren't artistic.
It's craft, not art.
@@liberatumplox625 It's both. And you must be really fun at parties.
@@AngelusNielson I think you missed the point
@@ARDIZsq Do I care? Especially when you don't care to educate me rather than stick your nose up?
I went to Brickvention and saw this in person. Me and my friend were amazed by how flawlessly it was done.
same!
I had the privilege of seeing it at Brickvention, and it was even better in person. He deserves a lot of kudos for it.
I need this on my shelf... please this needs to be a lego set
Don't think it's ever going to happen. Way too difficult to build. Way too many variables when placing the parts. Maybe Cobi or whatever dare to release it, but I am sure, Lego won't.
@@kABUSE1 Maybe as a 36+ set? :P
I mean this would be the most expensive set ever… probs like 3k or so
If that happens, it will cost 8.000 EUR/$
all the unique bricks on the head - the egg, the dome inside, the plant beard- and he didn’t mention the golden bananas!!!
this is BEAUTIFUL i love it,,,,
Some of the facial features are actually used in some of LEGO's modern dragon sets. For example the LEGO ninjago movie robot dragon set uses the same plant pieces for the whisters, the bananas around the eyes. And uses a similar technique with the bowl but with a lego mini fig head inside instead of an egg
What's so great is that it is very elegant, not necessarily in the way that it looks, which is obviously elegant as well, but how the structure is engineered. It just makes sense!
that is how chinese dragons are depicted in their art for thousands of years. Their dragon isnt the dragon of power and destruction like western dragon. Their dragon signify authority power and wisdom and is revered as king amongst living creatures not feared.
WOW this dragon looks AMAZING!
Best MOC of 2024, 11 more months to see if anyone can raise the bar even higher
THIS IS ON ANOTHER LEVEL 😮
There aren't enough builders of this caliber, using Technic to its full potential. Just amazing.
So glad someone showed how this beautiful creation was made. I had zero clue when I first saw this on Reddit how it was even possible to pull off. What an impressive moc
I don't get how the rest of the interior works though. How did Donny Chen get the curves in the middle, and how did he join them to the rest of the interior.
I was waiting for this video from the moment I saw this fantastic MOC online! I'm glad you got the chance to see it in person and make a video of it.
What in the actual fuq.....I'm seeing it and yet my brain cannot comprehend how is this a real moc🤯
It's the most beautiful Lego creation bar none, and I know my Legos, I could type for day just the big technic sets I have in possession and I'm gen 84' so that's a 35y old hobby of mine. Dude....amazing build, I'm in love🥰
What an incredible build!! Thanks for showing us the internals, it’s super inspiring!!
I can never really justify much of a purchase from either BrickLink or Bricks and Pieces because I generally just don't know what I'd want to buy beyond something just to say that I have a few of them and maybe they'll be useful some time in the future, but with something like this, they definitely pay off. Everyone went hog wild on all the metallic gold parts on Bricks and Pieces when Monkie Kid first dropped and I laughed them all off as crazy, and if I saw that someone bought a few hundred of those Harry Potter rings and 2x4 rounded gold tiles, I'd also laugh them off as crazy, but clearly Donny Chen knows what's up. You'd have to do the same thing with all the clips and brackets, too, but I feel like those could reliably have been Pick-a-Brick Wall purchases (and a better price per part ratio) since they're smaller and less niche; certainly better than all the olive cheese people bought up 10 years ago (sheesh, it's already been 10 years?) that I'm sure still fill a whole bin of their collections and don't know what to do with.
I look at a MOC like this and that’s the part I can’t even wrap my head around: sourcing. Like I can at least start to comprehend the incredible design and engineering Donny brought to this, but when it comes to tracking down this many specialized pieces over what must have been many months on BrickLink… the logistics are just insane.
@@mortenjorck Bricks and Pieces from LEGO's website is a good way to get bulk parts for better prices than even BrickLink at times, certainly much more convenient than having a bunch of different prices across multiple stores (and international ones at that, which makes it worse) and at varying levels of condition. It may take some time to arrive, but if he had the basic design already done digitally, Danny can parse out what's going to be the best way to go about acquiring the parts, and I think Bricks and Pieces makes the most sense for the rings and tiles because nobody just buying sets for their inventory on BrickLink would ever have something like this unless they were also going to Bricks and Pieces.
Simply put, this is gorgeous
An incredibly beautiful build and a beautifully reverent video 👍👍
Gorgeous and educational
Amazing build, great to see it in person
Great insight into it! The person who built this must be extremely lucky to even have the pieces to be able to do this, the listed parts list would be insane for this build I'm guessing.
The amazing part to me is that from the outside perspective you are able to visually check which pieces are being used, its not some sort of weird half-piece sticking out amalgamation that is causing the finished and refined look.
Wow, that thumbnail was not a click bait... it looks AMAZING!
I'd pay $1,000 if LEGO decided to produce it.
its about 7000 pieces. looking at legos priecing curve i would guess its not been sold for less then 3k.
@@jg113 UCS Venator (5374 pieces) sells for 650€.
I'd say 1k for the metallic pieces is about right. Maybe a bit less.
it would cost roughly $1500-2000
@@jg113 The Lego Eiffel tower model (10001 pieces) can be found here for €630. Now price per piece isn't constant, the eiffel tower is a lot of small pieces, compared to for instance the liebherr crawler crane with only 2883 pieces, and still setting you back €680 euro (although it can be found for much less, it has been sold for €410).
If they'd produce this, I'd expect it to be in the ~€800 ballpark as its piece variation is significantly higher, but they're still a lot of small pieces.
Absolutely incredible. Can’t wait to see what this inspires!
I have no words… just wow
What a great start of the year of the Dragon!
I would buy this set! Phenomenal!
By far the most impressive lego creation I have ever seen
Amazing, astonishing, mind-blowing, crazy, terrific, .... i'm lost for words. Take my money.
This man is truly a pioneer!!
That’s remarkable!
ohh maaa gawdddd so beautiful
Absolutely beautiful and even more clever! Almost a shame that all that beautiful scale work is completely covering the sheer amount of ingenuity of the inner frame
Stunning.
I'm curious how the middle sections curve was achieved, it looks almost like the front and back thirds are solid and anchored, and the middle third uses ball joints to connect the two.
Like a slinky dog toy almost.
happy year of the dragon ! and if I understood what I just read, this year stands especially for the azure dragon Qinglong
I love this design and the really amazing design is the inner workings. I think this MOC would look even better with the ovoid shield. There are now large amounts of them because of some plant sets. However, they are not pearl gold.
I would love to see this reskinned with them instead of the oblong tile. I think it would be much tighter and sleeker.
This is an amazing craft, I didnt even know 80% of the pieces and colors
That’s absolutely incredible. I’ve never seen anything like that in Lego
My jaw actually dropped when I saw this, insanely impressive!
Dang. I hope they make this available😮
This is incredible
I need this right now
Wow that's the best!
Honestly its Beutiful!
Would love to see this as a set
On first impressions I was like "It doesn't even look like it's made out of lego." Then after watching the video I realised that it really is :O
特别好！春节快乐！
Can't wait for the first 'instructions please' post
That dragon is awesome... my only critique is that it would look a little better if it had a different color for the eyes. Other than that, it's perfection!
I want that so bad it looks awesome
Will there be a part list and instructions?
Just absolutely incredible. Wow. New subscriber ✌🏻
I want this so! 😍
Freaking Amazing!!!
i want this set
Thats some of the things i wanna build with lego
This is beyond incredible, astonishing.. truly... wonder if he'll make a design with longer tail tho..
That’s absolutely insane!!!!!!
😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
absolutely the best
Love Donny's Dragon and your video was great. New sub 👍
I was able to see this build in person at brickvention
Lego needs to make this a set. I want one.
I was so privileged to see this at Brickvention
Its a very good creation.
wow that is insane! MANY people would buy this as a set, but I must say adding all the scales would probably get boring haha. Beautiful sculpture that would display so well
Damn... Yeah... he's on a whole other level
I thought Donny hit his peak with his lego piano but this is a real treat and really cements his status as a lego artist
I look at this and the official Lego dragon in the store... seriously difference between heaven and earth
I saw this in person at the Melbourne lego show!
I know it will never happen, but I wish this was a buyable set
If I can only tell that it's lego if I look real close, then that's a fire set.
This is fire
As a person with zero creative skills, I found the dragon very impressive, thank you for sharing this build.
dayum it's *brick* taking
And all we need now, is to convince LEGO or some other Companie to bring this as a Set, maybe with different Colortyps, i would love a combi with Jade Green or Azure Blue Main color and Gold belly
Love the fact that @RansomFern 's ironman is in the background
Just wow
Do you have a parts list or instruction or anything? My dad really loves this one!
This would be such an incredible Ideas set! Intricate and challenging with really unique building techniques (I might feel a little bad for whoever has to write the instruction manual though, lol)
Wow.👌
very nice!
For real how did I miss this gem, was this made like yesterday?
Imagine this a set.
The downside is that the circles are (currently) very limited in size options right? So you can build a "tube" of a specific size and thats about it?
Epic!
I dont like hyperbole but this is hands down the greatest lego build I've ever seen and it's not close. Breathtaking
I need this
Hot damn, this is one of the few sculpture sets I'd actually spend hundreds of dollars on, maybe more.
Impressive.
I want one.
This curvy design would be the perfect fit for rayquaza
Awesooome
The ability to create a new creation is most impressive.
WOW
I like how when someone like myself sees this they would think "oh, that dragon looks really cool". but if the hardcore look at it they're minds are blown
I am not a Lego guy but even I would be tempted to buy this if it was a set.
Donny, please take my money! Must have one.
what an incredibly constructed build. All I can think about though is how much money they spent just to make it, like jeezo
also do I sense a #1 place on the best MOCS of the year? It's early but also I think it will be the one
Will the plan for the MOC be sold?
Is there also a Bricklink list of parts?
The tail is reminiscent of the dried flower arrangement
i had to squint to even tell it was made out of lego. excellent build.
