I used to order airplane books from mail-order companies back in the later eighties, and every time I ordered a book in a foreign language, the company would include a letter declaring the book is in a language other than English. I know what I'm looking at...so a translation isn't necessary.😂😂
@@chriscummings4206LoL 🤣 true. Yeah would hate to get a Lego set from a cuntry. That not have the. Words in non English if only know English. At lest the instruction are just pic s than. Words.
40:40 my friend switched from tee spring to Vista print and the quality is infinitely better. who woulda thunk it AFOOLs talking about vintage LEGO. that should be every episode but it isn't. I got my job back and I'm under contract so when it expires I'll let Joey know and I'll reorganise to come onto the podcast
For those videos I made for LEGO, they said I could use as many of my own pieces as I wanted. In fact, I don't think they even cared if I didn't use pieces from the sets they sent me. Just as long as I used Technic pieces to "make it work". There was no way on earth I was gonna make a drawbridge from a McLaren. Sorry to disappoint you, Jaabo.
Great show, guys! Enjoy listening to you guys on Friday afternoon to start the weekend. I might have to check out that other podcast that did the sponsor video sometime. 🤣
On almost every Bricktsar video I watch I get yummyland doll ads. I don't have any children of that age, don't watch any toy content other than Lego so I don't know why I'd get that type of ad. Other channels I watch I am constantly bombarded with ads for my workplace. I'm there 45+ hours a week. I surely don't want to be bombarded with ads for it on my own time. It makes me not want to take my phone to work anymore. Also I never understood why, if I buy something from any online retailer why I get ads pushed to me for the same item. I already bought it! I don't need convincing to buy another, unless it's Lego of course. Anyway great job once again guys. Love watching the Afools!
a.k.a. Joe Bowling - Found Jaabo in the corner garage video at the... . . . . . . . . . 1:22 mark. It took me 4 times through the video so now I know way more about that corner garage than I ever thought I would. 😅
Those giant bricks Jaabo is making are amazing. That totally makes me want to challenge myself to do it. Unfortunately I’ve developed a waiting list of upcoming MOCs, lol. I love those giant pieces. The headlight brick looks like a boombox from the future.
Yeah, I’ve bought about 10 bricktober magnets to get a modern black spaceman and took my Dremel tool and cut the magnets and bottoms of the legs off and replaced the legs. I also bought about 10 minifigure presentation box sets for the modern blue spaceman too but boy it gets expensive! I think LEGO loves watching us Classic Space fans repeatedly jump through hoops to get these spacemen completed. I wonder what would happen if LEGO started doing that with Storm Troopers? 😂
31:38 Earl and co make a good point in the box size reduction and money saving. Reminds me of my Dad who worked at a weekly newspaper in Canada and he decided to reduce the broadsheet size by an inch off the top and along the side and that would save the newspaper $90,000 a year in paper usage alone. Of course the printer has to reset the massive print machine or buy the rolls of newsprint in correct size. Ultimately it was another indication of the downfall of print media and community newspapers.
Feel I need to explain my comment on the last episode. Jaabo said he thought the last ideas sets he got were Winnie the Pooh and Sesame street and those came out years ago, long before the sets I mentioned. I just thought it was strange. But I may have missunderstood what y'all were talking about. 😁 Great episode as always!
Great episode as always! I think you could do 3 hours if you really tried. Are any of you watching Agatha All Along? Great show, Marvel is back, 2025 is going to be a great year for movies and hopefully some new sets/minifigs (Fantastic 4, Thunderbolts, etc.).
1:47:00 In my case that's Winter village Bakery from 2010 (set no. 10216) I bought for a "Julekveld" build but forgot about it... I still have it sealed for some reason.
You're right, I would go bonkers for Formula 1 CMFs. I get that F1 is nowhere near as popular in the States like it is in Europe or Asia. Just like the DnD CMFs, they will appeal to a specific audience.
Lego can make SPACE in their production planning by stop production on yet another super mario set... My oldest sealed, still to build set is the CAT bulldozer. My parents found a year ago a new (plastic window came loose, so not sealed anymore) box of 7745. We had 9V and they had bought a wrong train. They put it away and forgot about it... Maybe we should sell that set... Grtz, SG from Belgium 🇧🇪
I have an insectoids set 6919 from 1998 that I bought in stores and have not yet opened. But that's not the oldest. I was mailing two Wild West/Western sets to myself in 1997 when they got lost, so I bought them again, but never opened them. The sets are from 1996, 6712 and 6716, which are still unopened. Never opened them because about 3 months after I bought these sets, the sets that I sent to myself finally arrived. These were, of course, the days before tracking.
I'm sure you've seen by now, but I saw the X-Mansion next to the Natural History Museum and the X-Mansion looks really small. If I were to ever get a Marvel modular, I'd get the Daily Bugle for only $20 more than the X-Mansion.
@BrickTsar, I don't understand why you would have to buy the Avengers tower if you bought the X-mansion. Why not just buy the mansion, but not the tower?
Jaabo, you were talking about somebody leaving you all kinds of angry replies on Instagram because you did not respond quickly enough. That sounds like that episode of Seinfeld where George left all the angry messages on his girlfriend's answering machine
2:02:08 The only ad I get on BrickTsar's channel over and over again is for Yummy Land candy lip gloss for girls. The song drives me nuts I think they are trying to get me to pay for UA-cam premium with no ads.
It's funny(maybe tragic) how Brickitect got denied to be in the LAN because they thought his content seemed too directed towards kids and now they're actually asking Alex and other LAN members to make videos for kids!?!
1:00:01 Jaabo was trying to identify HIPSTERS as the ones who drink craft beer now who would have collected X-men back in the day, not Yuppies or intellectuals. We call them hipster-douches.
For jabo s big police car build. Insted of trying toy you .brick s 1 x1 s to do the. Police word. He should just. Get two police word. Stickers printed .unless thay printed brick. So he whant to try make. The police writing.yousing plates an bricks.
I almost choked on my drink when Earl told Joey to "pull yours out from under the desk".
A great show again. Earl boosts commerce, Joey gives security tips and Jaabo shows how to make your basement 6 times bigger!

In what video one Lego did .?? Or

Joey clearly doesn’t know how the sponsor videos work. They go at the end of the podcast
@@jasonsbricksin5 🤣
@@BrickTrainsyou only added one name in this reply. You forgot to add five more names lol
Joey absolutely miffing the one liner jokes that open this podcast are the content I want and deserve.
You guys should do a segment where you do reactions to Jason's Bricks in 5 or Alex Nunes videos like they do with BrickTsar.

I agree with Joey, the airtanks are probably the same size as the studs, so like what Earl said, it's the neck piece that will be the issue.

1:09:22 I HAVE THEM ALL!! MOHAHAHA!! But in all seriousness, I love the classic Legoland sets an it's the box that makes them special.
14:10 886 My fav. classic space set :D ( think I mentioned that a few times before 😅).

1:16:29 I like @pastajensen videos too! Short and funny videos full of vintage sets!
LEGO could probably make 100,000 BDP Castle sets and they’ll probably still sell out.
@BrickTsar, I don't understand why you would have to buy the Avengers tower if you bought the X-mansion. Why not just buy the mansion, but not the tower?

what is up with Earl's mic? Sounds like he was inhaling helium :)
