5:45 LEGO has made "jellyfish" in the past from other parts. I want to see some purpose-designed modern ones like they've been doing so many other animals... and to include them in modern underwater themed sets where they'd be perfect. Dual-molded and/or marbled trans-_____ with trans-clear & everything.
I’d love to see a squid, specifically in the orange colour from the front of the recent landspeeders, if the mold was made well it could use existing parts as tentacles as well, considering how many sea creatures we’ve gotten the squid is becoming more and more plainly absent.
Compared to the 1997 underwater base which I own(6441). Which has a small boat with crane, an entire base and a large submarine which is also sold as a single set. Much more play value. For about the same price. I really loved the underwater exploration theme back in the day, and actually bought the 3 smallest sets of this year. The 2 subs are okay and the pollybag is descent. Don't know if I get this base. The ship yes.
The poblem is that Lego seems to have put a lot focus on the "technical" aspects of the set, it's a quality build and looks good on display. But where it's lacking is its core play aspect. It's not thought out or set up for kids (or adults) to interact and play with fully. I mean you'd want to be able to walk the figs around the set, play out different scenarios, etc...But it's not possible in this case because each segment is done as an independant module, the "connecting" aspect fails because it's merely replacing modules for the sake of switching up the "look", it doesn't however aid or add anything for the sake play. Another thing is the intricacy, building quality, and inclusion of details in the set are supposed to work FOR play, it needs to have a basis in a possible story for kids to go off of on, and mot merely just for looks. Like something simple as adding a skeleton or a hidden trap or object to be revealed in the cave would add to the play aspect whereby you could make up your own scenarios for the divers, but an empty space gives you nothing to go off of.
This is true, I find that lego isnt a very big fan when it comes to making fleshed out interiors. It seems most of their sets do not have much room to play in in terms of posing minifigures within a build. Maybe with the exception of the creator city sets.
Yeah. And sets like this are so expensive. I'm surprised about this one, since it's not a Licensed Property (like Star Wars). It's Lego's own thing. No need for inflated prices.
Why does it seem like LEGO keeps innovating with these new designs and styles of peices, but then squander opportunities to use them? Its the same story regarding play space...
@@Lordodragonss Yes and the parts from those 90s sets were full of great parts. If you put these new sets side by side with the 90s stuff I think the kids would choose the 90s stuff.
@@Lordodragonss Popping out 3 underpieces 3 top lids and 3 transparent window bowls and they are basically done constructing the core of this set. While the bubble window pieces cover only 4x4 top, still needing the bottom pieces and each window piece is 1 plastic piece + a transparent window. It costs money to make. This is more cost-efficient.
I personally don't like this set. It really doesn't feel like LEGO, instead more of a doll house. I also think this is just a way to get new pieces like the stingray or the helmet.
"Slightly happy clone"... Jang, I noticed that you finaly admitted that you have indeed been cloning yourself. I for one am *very* proud of you for coming clean! I wish you the best in your future cloning endeavours! 😊
Lego needs to reconsider using those enormous specialized pieces so much. I feel like we're rapidly reverting back to the dark days of lego where almost all they made were vehicles consisting entirely of just 5 or 7 massive parts.
Jang I just wanna say I love your videos and I’ve been watching since you started reviewing hero factory and I just wanna say thank you for being you and shaping my childhood
Yeh it’s pretty cheap..the US price for the big one is $150, that converts to about $179 Australian, which is the rrp at the LEGO shop.. but we have a Kmart here and they have great prices..some cheaper than U.S. somehow..Star Wars prices here are a pretty steep hike though, for sure 👍
This new Ocean Exploration theme is a letdown for me. It had so much potential. Lego used to make a set for everyone. Now they make city for younger kids, because the 18+ line caters for adults. They don't add that extra level of LEGONESS, that these newer sets need.
I love the old music it’s extremely nostalgic. I remember all those years ago when I got into Jang’s channel, those were some of the best days of my life
I really like this new wave of sea exploration but I really want a dinosaurs series of this where you get to find prehistoric sharks and underwater monsters
Hey Jang,I bought 4 of these sets and customised one of the base plates so that there is now a hatch in the bottom with several modules attached, allowing for an office, crew quarters, lab, WC and shower, sickbay, storage and a docking bay for a mini sub. I’ve also ordered set 60096 and intend to create a sub pen for my 60092 sub. still work in progress. I love your video reviews of Lego sets as an AFOL in the UK.
LEGO has come a long way in designing modular buildings, but they still haven't caught on to the idea that people are more likely to buy a set like this in 3-4 pieces with each having higher play value than a combined set with minimal play value. Take for example the crew quarters. Use the parts from the other three modules to create one large module with four bunks (maybe using slabs and hinges to retract the lower bunks against the wall and reveal storage underneath). The module comes with its support struts, some personal effects, a bit of seabed, and 1-2 figures. Sell it for around $30. Do the same sort of size increase for the lab and command centre. For the hub, increase its size to make it octagonal and include "airlock" walls where you can attach up to eight modules and have a wet bay for the mini sub and skip the crane. Give the hub one diver and 1-2 sea creatures and market it for about $50. Fans of this series can purchase multiple modules and link them to create larger rooms or even add additional hubs to create a sprawling base. Best of all, the ability to sequence the modules means a financially strapped family can buy modules and link them without the hub to provide their children with the best possible play value for their budget. Seriously, LEGO, you're dropping the ball on some very easy profits by sacrificing quality and quantity when you could get both for roughly the same price! I would rather buy three modules for $90 total than this one barely playable set for $80.
I would have been Ok with these parts, IF they were wider and more like "baseplates" to create a module in, with more decoration and options on the inside. This is way more miniaturized. Also, the "detachable" sub is laziness. The white base back in the day had its own designated sub + a small boat. And came with 5 mini figs & 5 fish! This base is smaller, comes with no real sub unless you pull off that part of the base, 5 mini figs only 2 fish. And basically no real underwater world. The boat and the sub gave the old set way more play value, also the way it folds open giving you access and play value inside is much better, compared to this where it is simply a bunch of enlarged cockpits.
Also if you have to detach stuff and have huge arrows on the art work to "enlarge" the set for its value you are doing something wrong. Compared to that old set where they have to crop it all together to fit it in an image...
This is actually one of my favourites from this wave, it just looks cool and just works, also, if you get multiple of these you can make a your base bigger and bigger.
I really enjoy how you put the person into the actually play action, painting a picture of how to optimize the play experience. The Bob Ross of LEGO, for sure:)
Here’s my issues. They use these huge un-lego like pieces and that makes the price go up. But if they used actual pieces and bricks and built up those same structures it would also make the price go up. So if they insist on raising the price year after year after year the least they can do is give us actual useful parts, not huge specialized pieces that aren’t even playable to begin with. Literally no holes to access into the main hub or into the submarine. To me the set looks incredible and reminds me a lot of Atlantis or Aquanauts but just fails to capture the same play value.
I agree with some of the things you said, but your not taking into account that this is a 5+ set. It has to be easy to build for the lowest end of the target market range.
I never realized that Legos had such a big adult following. Its such a cool and interesting hobby to have. Sadly legos are kinda expensive so I’m gonna stick to bowling.
As a diver, the bottle and bike are the most realistic accessories to me haha! If they wanted to make it even more immersive they should've added a shopping cart
I guess you´re right. All these Modules are much to small to play. And the fact that these modules are all just one peace gives you no chance to make them bigger. At least the hub should be big, like double or tripple of it´s size and there schould be the central, the T.O.C. as it were.
I feel like they should have used the trapdoor piece to create a moonpool access point in the open section. Being able to open the back of the modules (hinged up, perhaps) would have been far more fun/accessible for play. Bulkhead doors would have made for fun play options too, especially docking the submarine. Seems like a lot of missed opportunities :S Really curious what the fan on top is supposed to represent too.
I think you're spot on with your review. There's nothing to play with in the interiors. They need to be bigger with things like a lab, a kitchen and bigger sleeping quarters. That middle section is a complete waste of what could have been a recreational area. I wanted this when I first saw pictures of it but now it's a definite pass. Too bad.
5:43 Lego did make jellyfish in the Spongebob sets (using a chef's hat in transparent pink and blue) also not to mention the builds for the Jellyfish in some of the Bionicle play sets in 2007( though I'm not sure if they are jellyfish or are a creature that resembles them). Edit: I forgot that they also used the chef's hate in clear to also represent a jellyfish.
The modular sections are ok for certain uses, but I wish that the living quarters and other room had been brick built instead to allow for more room inside. It wouldn’t be hard to MOC, just a bit of a pain to have to do. The central hub design is good to back up maybe two of them pretty easily for one larger room. I have to wait for a discount, but I’ll get this.

I imagine Marlin saying JELLYFISH
View of the Brick AHM 05 me too
JANGBRiCKS there was the single jellyfish piece in the spongebob sets, I don’t think it was used in other sets.
Jang, this looks like a remake of the underwater set that brought you out of your dark ages
Anything closer to an Atlantis reboot makes me happy
Why must you hurt me so
I faintly remember Atlantis
The only atlantis set I had was the giant black and yellow shark, but I loved it. I want a reboot, too.
Or Aquazone with it's fancy designs
I loved the Atlantis theme, but I only ever managed to get one of the sets. Would absolutely love a reboot of it.
Once looked closely at it, it is a suprisingly disappointing set. Especially in comparison to the space station.
ikr
This theme is so basic and is missing the fun of the 90s under water theme.

I never thought of it that way before, but you’re absolutely right!
The big pieces that they reused need to be replaced with regular parts. The set needs to be expanded.
Long story short, it's missing the fun and imagination of the 90s sub theme.
I think this would be more successful if it had a back wall. Without it the set isn't very displayable from the back
And if the submarine wasn't part of the base.
No it actualy needs LESS walls to be more accesible. Those tiny rooms are horrible.
The 90s under water theme was far better then this imo. This is not to bad but it's a bit basic.
This isn't a display piece it's a toy. A back wall would make play impossible. Not to say there's much play value in this dud to begin with...
Why does it seem like LEGO keeps innovating with these new designs and styles of peices, but then squander opportunities to use them?
Its the same story regarding play space...
I dont understand why they stopped using those amazing panels with bubble window. They look way more Underwater themed than these

The 90s under water themes beat this hands down.
@@legobrickabrac Aggree
This line of sets reminds me of subnautica especially the coral it looks like blood kelp
And the base looking like the modular base building in subnautica
Lego subnautica pls
Lego subnautica would be awesome!!
An £80 Reaper (giant red and white big thing)

Those were terrible. The 80s and 90s had that one theme I ant think of where all the buildings were about 30 pieces.
Ever since the stupid LEGO city show, the ages for building city sets has gone down. Making everything very VERY simple. City is really going downhill
Fluffnose338 the show is actually good but the sets aren't really that good
Basically they making main Lego into Duplo

Those new stingrays make me smile, they are my favorite animals!
DOLPHINS ARE WAY BETTER!!!!!!!! ( sry i just like dolphins more than stingrays.)
@@benthebookboy1068 stingrays have poison tho!
The set gives me major Subnautica base-building flashbacks. That's a good thing.
I love it when jang goes off
This and the big ocean ship are insanely cheap in Australia, this was $89 and the big ship was $139!
that’s not that cheap
The big ocean ship is about 190 australian dollars in Switzerland...

If you convert U.S. prices into Aus prices , we do get ot cheap is Australia!
Kmart just added new stock online, AT AT nearly 20% off, Assembly Square 25% off! Technic Volvo nearly 25% off!
It kinda looks and builds like juniors set
It's only big pieces, not good.
It's 5+ which is only one step up from what used to be known as the Juniors theme. Hence the big pieces as JANG stated in the vid.

Just go buy older ones.
those divers be heading down to the depths of the ocean to get those infinity stones XD

Love the "!?" and "!" after the US and UK prices.

Always appreciate the honesty and multi viewpoints provided by your reviews. Thank you!
The fact that it’s 80 quid in the US and £55 here in the uk is hilarious 😂
It’s been years sense I have picked up a lego piece but I love to come back to this channel once and a while! Love your content bro!

Watching LEGO make all these new parts makes me worry that they will repeat their history.
This is actually one of my favourites from this wave, it just looks cool and just works, also, if you get multiple of these you can make a your base bigger and bigger.
I literally guessed that only one minifig would be able to fit into the crew quarters. Lego never fails to be lazy.

Looks like the atlantis sets
This set is not that expensive compared to something such as Grevious’s star-fighter.
oh god let's not talk about that.
80 seems fine to me

Wonderful to see that the comments are back!

oh yeah
I like the little underwater rover too.
Yeah this is a down grade from the space station from last year
they are completely different things
I guess you´re right.

T-60 power armour helmets 😁
Blech.
This is one of those sets that feels like I'd need to get 3-4 of them to put together something decent.
🤷♂️
Jangbricks: stung by jellyfish or something
Me: da stingray
haha
I agree jang not enough fun for mini figures
Nice set but I still rank the Atlantis series as one of the top underwater themes.
its really interesting to me that they released a bike mold without the wheels in an official set.
With lots of parts from the old ones from 2015 it would be fun to customise this set in particular the sea floor with lots more coral and plants
I am adding a Underwater scene to my city... But won’t be building this set! Too expensive
I planing get this set (+lego Ninjago legacy Destiny Bounty) for myself on christmas :-D
Can’t wait to get the new Lego city sets 👍🏼
Lego did make jellyfish in the past, the Spongebob line used transparent dark pink chef hats for them iirc
Glad to see that the comment section is back!
Has anyone considered price-to-mass ratio? Seems more convenient and precise than price-to-volume.
They could bring back the jellyfish from the spongebob theme.
The hammerhead looks awesome!
Hammerhead & sting ray are super cool! Xx
looks like a ok set. i like sea exploring theme sets in general like this. like the stingray. could use some modifications.
That valve piece just stuck right onto the plate is straight out of the '90s
I feel like they should have used the trapdoor piece to create a moonpool access point in the open section. Being able to open the back of the modules (hinged up, perhaps) would have been far more fun/accessible for play. Bulkhead doors would have made for fun play options too, especially docking the submarine. Seems like a lot of missed opportunities :S Really curious what the fan on top is supposed to represent too.
This is an attractive set that can overcome its play value deficiencies with some creative customization.
I’m thinking an additional boat would have justified this set. I’m diggin’ those new diver helmets though.
I was really looking forward to this set I missed out on the other underwater stuff because it was during my dark age still may get it and mod it
Reminds me of the old Lego Town Divers sets
My family is a big fan of you
Cool,yet sad for my minfigures,if I would to put them inside the ocean exploration base.
I would prefer a Lego city sub marine than a pretty bad base

This remades me of Subnautica game :DDdd.
Not a bad looking set. I think I want it.
The US price makes me sad. Lego saving me lots of money with the high prices.
I’m paying those prices else where I’d rather spend 80 bucks on a retired set tbh
the way the base is built reminds me of subnautica, kinda wish there were more to the set.
5:43 Lego did make jellyfish in the Spongebob sets (using a chef's hat in transparent pink and blue)
also not to mention the builds for the Jellyfish in some of the Bionicle play sets in 2007( though I'm not sure if they are jellyfish or are a creature that resembles them).

If they slapped the subnautica logo on the box this would've sold really well
If you look at it the stingray is a heavily modified 1x2 dark tand brick
Thanks Jang I like the Hammerhead. Better treasure in this set than the big ship set u just reviewed .🤠
That transclear dome / canopy is superscratched @4:01 ... are these 'out of the box scratches'? o.O
In *depth* review hehe
i actually like this set😀
10:07 that fig to the far right has the face print from the Janitor from the Hidden side J.B’s Ghost lab set
no its not
I remember when we could get a decent LEGO set for $15
It kinda feels more like a glorified parts pack that you need to buy at least twice in order to build something usable.
Looks like ive got some new modules for my lego space station
I believe the spongebob theme had an official jelly fish
I actually kind of like this set and the fact it's not another ship or a submarine :)
Think I prefer the sub in 41378, which had a similar final look but didn't rely on a single large hull piece.
I- EIGHTY DOLLARS? Hoo boy!
Dang, thats awesome
Good review.
I combined 3 of those sets, to create a multi-level deepsea station
