LEGO Star Wars 75365 YAVIN IV REBEL BASE Review! (2023)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- LEGO Star Wars has long abstained from releasing a YAVIN 4 Rebel Base playset but that has finally changed! Set 75365 is the massive LEGO YAVIN IV set we've been waiting for... or is it? While it has an incredible 12 Minifigures, many LEGO Star Wars fans have pointed out the build looks too simplistic for $170. My review should help you see if this set is worth spending your money on!

This is the best 4+ line set so far.
Exactly what I was thinking
frfr
Yeah
And the best price for a 4+ set
😂😂
I think that Lucas didn’t give chewy a medal because it would have been an inconvenience for Lego to add it to the minifigure.
He thought of every, damn he really is a genius
Bravo Vince!
haha
Shouldve been a print on chewie imo
Lucas always thinks ahead bro💯🤣💀
This set is fine but to me it's just an upscaled 4+ set, the temple is very basic in shaping and not very appealing and the tree looks like it was taken directly from a juniors set. I like the chibi y-wing but the chibi slave one and tie advanced from previous years were much more effective in comparison. The figs are solid and the actual pieces for medals is an amazing inclusion. 7/10 imo
But which one you prefer this one or the old canceled version that appears in the book
Yeah
I mean it is labeled 8+
Exactly, it looks just like a giant 4 plus set
I'd say 6 out of 10. This isn't a appealing set to display & that means 90% of adults will buy this only for the mini figs & the miniature Y wing which is dissapointing
It’s a cool set since it was a once scrapped idea to see it become official. I would just say that tree for the outlook post could’ve definitely used more detail like maybe a tree you build with smaller pieces than those big parts. Other than that, I’m glad LEGO brought a new Original Trilogy set to the table.
For $170 the gunship or ghost is a much better option. My main issue is that there r a ton of sets releasing for more than $100 this year. Too much imo
yeah the LEGO inflation is pretty wild nowadays
@@THEODSTKING117*Inflation in general, Lego is just following the crowd sadly.
I can't buy lego anymore way too expensive
@@thunderspark1536 unfortunately lego was too much before inflation
@thunderspark1536 while inflation is bad I really would love to see a specific breakdown of where the $170 goes. The $300 sets for example, or even the $500 ones....are they seriously worth the cost of a Nintendo Switch or PS5? Is plastic worth that much? Doesn't make sense
do you ever think we'll get an R2 unit with a dome that spins? Seems like its an easy transition. A body with 1 peg instead of 4 would be a good start.
YES! And I have a design for rollable BB8 as well, not that anyone is clamoring for another BB8 fig. Love your idea!
@@garbagearchiveWould love to see a rollable BB8 tbh.
You just need to place a 2x2 round jumper on top of the body and bam, rotating head. Aspect ratio does change a bit though, so..
This could have been the Mos Eisley replacement set if they had approached Yavin as a master builder series. The location aimed at an adult audience. Especially as this timeline for Yavin is from original film. A more complex, larger build. More detail. More vehicles. More minifigs to add volume to the scenes. Perfect accompaniment to Mos Eisley. Next a new reimagining MBS of the Death Star and you have the three main locations of the film covered.
I am so glad that we _finally_ got Garven Dreis in minifigure form. We've had Jon Vander since the early 2000s, but Dreis never showed up until now.
Great job with the super consistent uploads! Great review as always, keep it up!
20!! Thank you :)
Since we now have Yavin and Vader's Castle, we need the Citadel Tower from Rogue One in 2024!
For those of you getting this as a gift for a kid, the 4+ A Wing set that retired not too long ago goes EXTREMELY well with this set. The A Wing scales well with the Y Wing, and the A Wing looks really good to boot for what it is. It also comes with a green Rebel pilot to help round out the different type of characters you can have at Yavin. The A-Wing even comes with a Yavin side build. It's just a great way to make it look like you have a fleet to go with this base. The A Wing should fit through the hangar doors as well.
Any kid would love to get these two sets together. Luckily, that retired A Wing is still not too pricey. If they have the Darth Vader's castle, they can attack this base with Vader's tie and some stormies. Or vice versa.
This is what Star Wars has been missing; big playsets like the Battle of Endor, Darth Vader's Castle, and this.
Saying that a 4+ set goes well with a $170 set is hilarious
@@Oscar-ek2jx Yavin is a kid’s set. Which is great.
@somethingawesome9547 just funny that a kids set is as expensive as a UCS set
@@Oscar-ek2jx Nintendo Switch is $300-$350. Nintendo says their product is for kids. Sorry but if anything, LEGO needs to dial back Star Wars adults sets. Shit is getting ridiculous.
Don’t worry no one here is buying it for their kid 🤣
The y-wing is SO GOOD! Especially in that smaller scale. Its much better then i expected
I love The minifig scale vehicles and starships and they are cheaper
And they fit better to the scale of star destroyers
Let me just say this: of all the diorama sets Lego has released from A New Hope. How in the force did they not make a diorama set for the medal ceremony? Is Yavin iconic? Yes. However I think we all remember it best for the ceremony at the end of A New Hope.
LEGO: take notes
The figures are really really good, but I can’t help but be disappointed by the build. Seeing how Yavin is one of the most hyped locations for a set cause we have literally never gotten it before. Definitely wait for a discount to pick it up.
Ryan: reviews whole set, and gets upset a several things
Also Ryan: the troop cart is amazingly accurate and I love it
Ryan: gives honest review and says it how it is for each thing in a set?
I don’t get it…
@@MandRproductionsRyan: My nephew can’t get a 501st battle pack
Also Ryan: buys 500 of them
@@Jordan61112 damn that sucks
9:09 In reference books some cross section of yavin 4 temple show a observation and communications room at the top with a satellite dish in it. Some other cross sections just keep that area covered and don't show what's there.
Imagine getting two sets and combining it. It would make it a near perfect set.
For 350$
Possible video?
This is exactly my plan! Hopefully an alternative build comes out soon!
It has some cool features that are overly watered down by areas that feel incomplete.
When the crew cart is the highlight, I think I'll pass on this one.😂
Dear Ryan (if you ever see this lol): There is a mistake (At least in my version) on page 8 of the first instruction booklet, the first step calls for 1 white 1x2 plate, but if you follow the instruction you actually need 2
I wanted this set to be great and I was pumped up for it and then it came out.
I think they should have gone for a $400 master builder set with this one like the Cantina.
I would love to see you expand the jungle around the base using all the Endor trees you have.
truth be told, i really do admire this set
i agree. i understand why people dislike the set but that doesn't make it any less amazing
I find it odd that Lego used Han’s face from Solo for this set instead of his normal face
The view finder on the y wing actually has an Easter egg and it points out the year the first movie came out 1977
Look honestly besides the mini figures and the Y-Wing, the build itself looks like something anyone could easily make from their own set of legos. Not saying that this is inertially a bad thing, it’s just that i can confidently say that people could make something look as good or better pretty easily. Now if this set was $80 than that’s different, but $170 is insane. Can people seriously say they’d pay $30 more than At Te for thisv
You should combine 4 and make a better one, I think that you could do an amazing job.👍
I saw a Russian dub of Star Wars when I was a kid, but the part where Red Leader says "Cut the chatter, Red 2," and "I'm going to cut across the axis and try to draw their fire" were kept 100% in English and the John Williams horn section silent then exploding in was amazing. So yeah anyway it sucks he died in the movie but I'm glad to honor him in minifig form and in my head canon he survived and was dancing on Endor in Jedi with the Ewoks.
i feel like this set is going to experience something similar to the justifier where it comes down to around £100 on amazon after a bit
also great video again keep up the good work
I wanna get some 4+ x-wing, tie fighter, and A-wing sets to go along with this one, so I can build a 4+ end of new hope scene lol
Now all we need is the Jedi temple from episode III as a 18+ set.
This is Darth Vader’s castle but like when you need to copy your friend’s homework, but have to change it up so the teacher doesn’t notice
Fun build but I wish it had more detail for the hefty price. The mini-figures are definitely a plus and worth it in the end for me. You still can’t beat having the Yavin 4 base and recreating the classic throne room scene.
🔥 this is a great set!! Thank you for sharing always!!
I’m gonna get this set definitely
I kinda wish they had left the droid duo out and had two more regular rebel fleet figures. They feel very integral to the location
That Leia is amazing
Hands down the best August 2023 set! 🙌 Thanks for all the content Ryan!
I agree
Personally disagree. Nothing from August was really that good, the only one I'm playing with the idea of picking up is the battle pack.
@@crazydog1750 agreed
Ummm well technically you’re probably right and I hate that you are lol
@@MandRproductions Just watched your Spider Tank review and I've changed my mind. That one is a Day 1 pickup for me.
To me, the design looks like a mirror to darth vaders castle set. It has the mini y wing like the mini tie advanced, a opening in the middle, and has the little room on top to place minifigs
Underrated set fr
Love how you used a blue saber blade instead of the included white pointer stick. Very nice.
But seriously, What are these lego prices I'm sure they are accounting for both inflation and people that buy them on discount.
Those are minifigures I wish I could get but not with this price. No bricklink in my area either, mexico has very little variety when it comes to shops and buying international... might as well pay the full price of the set at that point. So discount it is.
Definitely worth the price of admission for the number figures alone.
Could we get a celebration minifigures' comparison video?
This gave me an idea that Lego could possibly create the scene on Crait from the last Jedi with the big blast door and a few ski speeders at a smaller scale
It's a nice set up for a set. I'd buy it for a playset not display. I'd use the mini figs tho for my own mocs
The weird thing with the Han face, which I believe they've done at least once before iirc, is that it's using the Young Han Solo face instead of the regular Han Solo face. The expression is good, but less facial lines to show that he's younger sticks out like a sore thumb when you realize it
It’s always a good day when MandR uploads
I think I'm going to buy this set and then get another one off bricklink with no figs and combine them. I really do like this set but the interior is just so cramped and bland and I think getting a second one and beefing it up will make it look awesome
i really like your reviews, they elevate you. all your videos and social media is really salty and than you can switch and create objective reviews. that is an honorable ability.
Is this a candidate for a future Moc video? 2-3 of these sets seems like it could scale up well for a much more complete/adult build.
This is actually a good set in my opinion now the tree on the side is bad but with the mini figs your getting in this set I think is good 7.4/10
I have to give LEGO props, I thought Gold Leaders helmet print looked familiar. Set 7658 comes with a Gold Leader with the same front helmet print, just the newer fig is more detailed and colored. Thought it was a nice touch
I was expecting so much more from it thoe
I think what this set really needs is a baseplate. + some minifigure more acsesories would be nice 😊
I think the radar dish is so easily removable so it can be place on the crew cart and transported around :)
this set needs to be rebuilt with 3 of these sets to make it bigger and better XD
That audio though. 👌It’s like Ryan is reviewing a Lego set on NPR
The most appealing part in my prospective view is the down scaled Y-Wing Starfighter, since we haven’t had a Y-Wing in a while, it makes it a little exciting.
Me too I love the Y wing it looks so cool
The most appealing part of a $170 set is the $20 mini build Y wing? We need to raise our standards. 😂
@@mynala110yes lol
Looks like lego
cuz it is
Now that I think about it it kinda does. Mega blocks has really improving in quality.
UCS 4+ from 2005, nice! 😉
Interesting that they used the solo head for Han
Love this set! So cool!
I want to see what two of them look like when placed together!
Should have made something closer to Vaders Castle, especially since it had more or less the same piece count.
Thanks for the review! I don’t think this set has enough pluses for me to drop 170 on, minus the mini fig selections it’s just not a lot for that much money
I might wait on this one, probably going to get the Asoka sets first.
“I don’t remember Luke’s head coming off in episode IV” had me rolling. Y-wing makes the set.
If you take 2 of them and mash them together you'll have the perfect yavin rebel base
despite there are cons against this set, like the price and some details as described in the video, still, this is a great one. Looking forward to getting it :)
Proper review, as always, thank you! 👌🏻
Honestly i think lego should make standalone ship sets at that y-wing scale. Maybe make some 2 packs with dofferent ships. It'd be a good way to get some good builds for like $20-$30 instead of paying $60+ for rebel ships and tie fighters.
Between the simplistic build and giving us only 1 rebel fleet trooper, this set came out kinda disappointing. Only reason I don’t think it’s absurdly overpriced is because Star Wars sets never get a lot of minifigs, but they’re doing majority of the heavy lifting in this set. 6.5/10 (just give us more MBS sets please)
Just picked it up at walmart for $100. Definitely worth it if you can find it on sale.
Are you going to do a wave review for all the summer sets? Love the vids
Clearance is in this sets future.
The medals are cool
4:14
Rebel Crew Member: “I’m more than just rebel crew member of the week”
This is a great set for the foundations of a MOC for adult fans like me who ain't the best with MOCs I like the open spaces to add stuff
Here me out, Kashyyyk with a small venator with mini scale turbo tanks with a tree.
They appear to have given Leia the same face they used on Jyn Erso :/
I never did understand why Chewie never got a medal at the end of A New Hope! ✌️❤👍
it's nice to see my favorite star wars bomber in such a scale
Where are your rebel friends now! -sid
Wow, it does not feel like 2 years ago when you made the concept model. I actually didn’t believe you and looked it up, convinced it was sooner than that. Man the time flies!
NY I ❤️ yoda in the back is a W
This set isn't as bad as everyone says. It has flaws, but im happy it exists
Cool set but a little basic
U first 🎉
Definitely should of been a MBS/UCS set for me, on a cantina/bespin scale…but a great play set for kids so good from Lego but a bit pricey
Those 4+ kids will enjoy those minifigure especially the tree😂
I was planning around with my 2005 clone turbo tank while watching this
Wish we could have gotten red leaders astromech
I was really excited for it then I saw this video, less excited now more informed. Do think the y wing looks cool though, I probably will still buy it
Pretty cool y-wing
If i were 8, this would be at the top of my wishlist.
It may not be the best collector's item. But I think lots of children will absolutely adore it.
I want this set really bad but I’m going to have to wait until it’s on sale
Shows great confidence in your rebellion when you start casting victory medals.
Yk people complain about us complaining about inaccurate detail...but when lego can do this much detail with OT sets, you can see why we would get upset about inaccurate detail
Never been this early to a video before. I wish it could’ve been priced higher but for a better build. But honestly overall solid build will be picking it up
If you compare this to the prices of 4+ sets, this is actually quite well-priced.
I'm buying this now. Thanks for the review.
Hope you enjoy it!
@@MandRproductions yeah I ordered it online a little while ago. It's going to be a Christmas present to myself.
