I love how instead of reviewing the new Gringotts like everyone else does, you do a whole video on the history of Lego Gringotts. These video have so much charm and care put into them I feel like other Lego UA-camrs don't have. Definitely one of the best Lego UA-camrs!
Not sure why but the lack of technic holding the whole set together was such a shock to me. I guess the mysterious aspect of the set holding together fits the magical Wizarding world 😅
@@CheeseyStudios I would love to display it connected to my Diagon Alley set on a 2 tiered shelf with a section cut out of the top shelf. So the modular buildings are connected and the railroad track extends through the top shelf's hole, and sits on the lower shelf.
the one thing I don't like about the new Gringotts is how you can't display it in the 'Alley' configuration with the buildings right in front of eachother and the cobblestones forming the street itself. You need to place Gringotts at an angle which doesn't connect the alley itself anymore
I really love it when even the bigger sets have fun play features like this one. I feel like they have also become more common recently, which makes me pretty happy.
Definitely agree. Between this and Temple of the Golden Idol, 18+ sets are on the right track. Now, if they could only make the box art more interesting...
i love the deep references to the earlier sets. it good to see a how much playability set has. hopefully lego will continue these trends in the near future
I really appreciate how Cheesey approaches modern set reviews. Always at an angle or with a unique central thesis. Make them stand out in the sea of modern lego reviews.
The John Williams soundtrack is amazing, isn't it! He absolutely rocks. Great review as always, and the set looks very nice too. The only problem becomes - space! Thanks Caleb!
Thank you! And I couldn't agree more. He brought so much to Harry Potter - a perfect magical whimsy. I have no idea where I'm going to store this either 🤣
@@CheeseyStudios For a while now I've been thinking that Lego should seriously consider getting into nice display cabinet business - because once us fans run out of display space, it's a game over :-)
I have never seen any of the Gringotts sets until now, and wow, any of them is great! The most recent one is beyond impressive, from the minecart able to stop at each vault, the Lestrange vault cup gimmick, the irregularity of the main building, and THOSE dragon's wings! They are so posable and seem so natural, organic, I've never seen a dragon with that kind of gimmick in the wings. Do you have still Diagon Alley? Would you make a short video with these two sets together in order to see how well they combine? It would be awesome to see the somewhat full Diagon Alley on display!
I love how the built the stand to give some breathing room for the baseplate instead of making it completely flat. Very weird but interesting to see a baseplate not on the ground but in the middle in an official lego set
missing: the chandelier…. will need 2 of these sets to make the lobby bigger ;) It looks like lego was thinking about this with the dual character minifig heads
The new one really does look great but I wish the top and bottom were sold separately so you could just buy the bank to connect to diagon alley. It would be a lot easier to stomach a ~$200 set as an add on vs a $430 one.
As good as the older coin pieces looked, you have to admit, using 1x1 round tiles for coins makes more sense, since it means the minifigs can actually hold them.
For the light bluish gray mini ball joints that hold the cloth wings on the dragon, is that a ball with a bar at the end or does it have a pin at the end? (Either way, I think its a new color for whichever piece it is)
Definitely - I suppose it's not much of a contest in the history of Gringotts sets. 🤣 Curious to hear if you think it's the best D2C from the theme though!
Whenever I thought of LEGO currency, especially for my own imagination and play time, I always used the same used in the LEGO video games: Silver, Gold, Blue, and Purple.
Managed to find the original Gringotts set the other day in a sort of charity shop as well as the 2010 Burrow. Think I might sell the Gringotts set, as while it's nice, it's the only original HP set I have and I think someone else could appreciate it more. Seems like it's only missing one or two golden coins and the trans blue 1x2. Tricky thing is working out the value of the set, the tiles are in good condition as are the minifigs.
Even though for obvious reasons i have issues personally reconciling with buying HP sets anymore (personal choice no judgement on those that do! love what you love!) i am absolutely blown away by Gringotts, this is easily one of Lego's best licensed sets in a long time and definetly one of the best of the reboot HP sets, the designers deserve so much kudos, a genuine work of art and i'm so envious of people the who can afford it!
It's really great to see how much passion the designers have put into this set. They made this really special, and I definitely agree that this sets a new standard for large licensed sets. I hope this energy carries over into other themes too!
They really did a great job with the new gringotts Thanks for showcasing this set as i would really love to purchase it but it doesn’t fit my power miners… I mean lego budget but I think you showcased it perfectly as is expected at Cheesey studios. I also loved seeing the older two as I haven’t visited them In many years so that was great. Wonderful job Cheesey
That bit where you were moving the whole structure around to prove its sturdiness was really something else 😂 I was on the edge of my seat and nervous beyond belief especially at the end lmao
First it's always so fun to see how Lego sets keep updating and expanding upon their older counterparts and such but also seeing what changes, what stays the same and what the different issues and benefits each of them have, be it horrible but charming goblins or rubbish printing, not that I mind the idea that even the magical world has a problem with part of their signs falling off, TS BANK is definitely where I want to keep all my valuable items! Secondly screw you for freaking me out with the display of how sturdy the new set but also thank you, I do adore knowing that nothing short of a heavy impact, repeated smaller shakings or simply a slip off the display area itself will be enough to destroy the set. Thirdly I have a soft spot for that tiny building but I'm disappointed that it doesn't have a Cat or something given it's name.
The best video I have seen of this set yet. I was not originally all that struck on this set but I think will now need to review that. It is stunning and has a lot to 💖. Thank you.
My sister has that 2010 diagon alley set. After we saw it in a book of all the then currently existing Harry Potter sets, she bought that one. Must've been like 2014 or so. We got it sealed, and she's had it ever since. Clearly its a good thing we got it then and not now XD I helped her put that set together, since at that time and basically ever since, it was her first lego set. I've always remained the lego person, but her, not so much. Some fun memories doing that. I'll probably never get another Harry Potter set, but the one we have was a good choice to get
I have to say I’m not a fan of the new roller coaster rail’s taking over for the older small rail system. It’s only really good at portraying roller coasters and only allows specific carts to roll on them as apposed to anything with the right wheels.
Even so, the fact that the carts are locked on is really nice. It's all just so much more secure, and the new rails do work very well! I think the designers pulled the look off here quite convincingly
The new set is excellent 🤩 I would have liked to see how the gift set is attached to the rails of the original set. I look forward to seeing more of all the cuteness you have.
@@CheeseyStudios I am suprised by fact that one Goblin has so much diffrent expressions on one head! One side has red eyebrows other has dark. It probably never happened in LEGO history before!
Has anyone had issues recently with large lego sets being unstable? Yes. The daily bugle will absolutely shatter if you apply pressure the wrong way. Most of that build is just 1x2 towers that like 6 inches between horizontal supports. Glad Gringotts holds up though
I think its fun. But maybe its more fun for elder kids and adolts. Theire is not much rum to pose figures and play around and all vaults are so smal. It would be cool to se a set with lage space to play around with. With that aside is a gorgeous set.
Yeah! It was introduced in 2012. I do believe this is the first time it's been printed though, and the print in this set is definitely new and exclusive!
It’s almost as expensive as the Diagon Alley Direct Consumer set no (yet so much smaller)? I want this set so badly but as an 18-year-old… I lack funds haha.
Yeah... I'm glad I have adult money now. Being a teenager wasn't easy when I wanted all these big sets too. Hopefully this will remain available for a few years though!
Thankfully they are easy to separate - just not easy to buy separately. There's been quite a few comments wishing they were different sets, which I can certainly understand.
Hearing you talk about the old Goblins being better in Tan reminded me of 2003 when Jabba's Palace (and Jabba's Message and Jabba's Prize, you had to get all 3 to reenact scenes) was first made in LEGO Star Wars. Bib Fortuna is also Tan instead of being Yellow despite his Twi'lek skin just being any normal flesh tone, it's not like a blue or green as Twi'leks are most often depicted, however it worked because it kind of gave him this eerie pale complexion compared to Luke and Leia. He looked malnourished and creepy, which he kind of is anyway in Return of the Jedi. Then the 2012 reboot was made and he was just plane old Light Flesh. BAH! They ruined him! Even the fat version of him from 2022 was Light Flesh. Look how they massacred my boy...
Awesome video dude, I have that original 2002 Gringott's bank and thinking how amazing it was at the time haha but wow, that latest one really is something else absolutely incredible amount of detail compared to the first one! All the till though I would imagine 😂
@@CheeseyStudios most definitely, and it saddens me to say this but it's one of the only things out there in recent times that's changed for the better!
If I want to display it with the diagon alley I don’t need the underground! Why can’t they make it 2 sets or something why do they have to make it a 400€ set??
Thanks for showing us how good the Gringotts sticker sign looks with some modification! Love: All the Easter eggs the designers included, Bellatrix’s vault, the printed Hermione’s purple beaded bag (THANK YOU designers), the number of goblins and how great they look, Bogrod’s alternate face Thanks for showing us all 3 sets. I don’t own the 2011 set, but after seeing all of them together, 2023 is superior! But 2011 is great for its time and I prefer the exterior columns on 2011 more than 2023. I wonder why they didn’t use the red infinity stone as the philosophers stone instead, which would look more accurate imo. Is that piece exclusive to Marvel? Maybe that’s why. Loved your review! The effort and hard work put into this is evident. Quality.
Yeah! It's built on a rollercoaster car. You get your best view of it around 6:27. Sorry for not featuring it more, but I was actually missing a piece of track so I didn't focus too much on the roller coaster bit D,:

@@CheeseyStudios hard to really put a finger on it, but is that sort of chaotic whimsy in your reviews that elevate them over the others.

I wish I had kept my Diagon Alley set intact to experiment with the configuration a bit more, but I can definitely see what you mean
At a guess, they took inspiration from Universal Studios and have the alley diagonal to the bank. Start wide and slowly work inwards to the bank.
I really love it when even the bigger sets have fun play features like this one. I feel like they have also become more common recently, which makes me pretty happy.
Definitely agree. Between this and Temple of the Golden Idol, 18+ sets are on the right track. Now, if they could only make the box art more interesting...

I audibly gasped when you yanked that large set around. Great build. Great video!
Thank you! The designers definitely did their homework - it's a sturdy, sturdy model!
I'm surprised Lego didn't advertise the Lestrange vault play feature. It looks amazing!

You will not find a better review on Gringotts. Cheesey Studios is the GOAT!
Appreciate it
It's like you can see the income of the fanbase go from "Mom, can I have this?!" to "Sweetie, I bought something stupid..."
it reminds me of the rancor pit and jabbas palace combo. maybe they could have made it 2 separate sets honestly.
yeah then we all could effort it but nah Lego likes money
Two separate sets would have been ideal, yeah. But they do just be wanting all our money 😬

I remember having the old 2002 gringotts set, I think I still have that print 1x8 somewhere
It's iconic! I do love those printed bricks.
I couldn’t hold myself after you shed the light on the reference of the mine car on the tile. The love for the original series is awesome!
It's so great that the designers love the old sets that much too. They know their target audience, that's for sure - nerdy adults 🤣
if you showed me this i wouldve thought its a moc like I would've never guessed its a set, lego has really leveled up

For the light bluish gray mini ball joints that hold the cloth wings on the dragon, is that a ball with a bar at the end or does it have a pin at the end? (Either way, I think its a new color for whichever piece it is)

Thank you! Well worth the bit of extra effort
this guy looks like the dude from ghostbusters. Egon he was called right?
Thanks for showing us how good the Gringotts sticker sign looks with some modification!
Love: All the Easter eggs the designers included, Bellatrix’s vault, the printed Hermione’s purple beaded bag (THANK YOU designers), the number of goblins and how great they look, Bogrod’s alternate face
Thanks for showing us all 3 sets. I don’t own the 2011 set, but after seeing all of them together, 2023 is superior! But 2011 is great for its time and I prefer the exterior columns on 2011 more than 2023.
I wonder why they didn’t use the red infinity stone as the philosophers stone instead, which would look more accurate imo. Is that piece exclusive to Marvel? Maybe that’s why.
Loved your review! The effort and hard work put into this is evident. Quality.
Really appreciate it!
Could it be the gift with purchase number
It looks like it's not 😪 The GWP is 40598 I think
Does the 2023 set come with a cart for the vault?
Yeah! It's built on a rollercoaster car. You get your best view of it around 6:27. Sorry for not featuring it more, but I was actually missing a piece of track so I didn't focus too much on the roller coaster bit D,:
I was never interested in harry potter sets but somehow you make me feel the opposite
I just purchased the original gringotts bank from my local thrift store and will never buy another
It's got a charm that will forever remain unmatched!
Omg I remember getting the first version for christmas as a child and I remember it being massive 😂😂. The new one is insane!!
Right??? It absolutely dwarfs the others. LEGO sets these days are wild
Oooh Lego... Now that I have the Diagon Alley set I must have this... Why do you hurt my wallet so!
Ikr , 🤣
