    If I had a nickel every time I watched your reviews that were longer than 5 minutes I’d almost have a dollar. I like the micro train but nothing else in the set. I appreciate all the dry humour

    Cool looking set. Got two. One to build, one to give as a gift. Looking forward to add it to my other history type sets.

    I'm glad to see you are getting more comfortable making these videos. The addition of humor is quite welcome.

      Thanks. I had been feeling they were a little dry so just trying to mix it up a bit.

    I too, have read many book covers - we should start a book club! Great review and you made me laugh. Well done!

      That sounds like my kind of book club 👍

    Pretty neat gwp, I just built Galileo and that was pretty good too

      I have that one but haven’t built it yet. But I really like the movement in that Galileo set.

    Fun review! The build looks neat and the technique for the back angle might be something to experiment with in the future. Had decided to order two more scaled up minifigs to make family macrofigs, so managed to get one of these in the process.

      Excellent! That will be fun to make the whole family. I don’t think you will disappointed with the gwp. Also I was just finishing editing the next episode of Bricking news. Your segment is great.

    You succeeded on the entertainment goal. 😂 I've never read a Jules Verne book, but I've been on the 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea ride at Disney World and I've seen Back to the Future III, so I'm pretty much an expert. 😅 I figure the train in that set must be referring to the train that pushed the DeLorean over Eastwood Ravine.

      Glad I could find another Jules Verne expert to have enlightened conversations with on his work. Maybe Eastwood ravine was at the end of the track in this build?

    I think you’re the first reviewer of this set I’ve come across who pronounced Jules Verne’s name correctly. Oh, did I just say that out loud? My bad.

    • @jasonsbricksin5
      @jasonsbricksin5  2 місяці тому +1

      Really? Now I am curious how do they pronounce it.

      @@jasonsbricksin5 Too shocking to repeat. I guess you know you’ve come to the right channel if you’re old enough to know how to pronounce Jules Verne’s name! :-)

    I dunno... Microbuilds don't 'do it' for me personally, so I have no interest in this GWP.
    Nice review though. 😁

      I understand. Not every Lego set is for everyone and that is just fine.
