    When the arms fell off at 07:33 it's actually because they weren't connected all the way. You can see it in the previous 30 seconds. The gray elbow pieces aren't supposed to be visible like that. Look at the official set images

      Yeah I think you can actually see the bare axle not fully pushed into the connector right before. I wonder if his rush to upload might cause him to rush the build process a little too much. Maybe with being kicked out of LAN and everything he should stop worrying as much about being the first reviewer and lean fully into taking his time to be the most thorough and honest reviewer? Idk, but most people buying the set will be taking their time on the build, and a fun build process is a big part of how much a set is worth to me personally, so I'd love to see him going back to mentioning that.

    The only two things I don't like about this build (besides the stickers) are the eyes (as usual) and the bloody silver leg.
    I just wished LEGO would STOP making his leg silver. It was never silver in the films. His right leg was brass, not silver. So for this to be accurate LEGO should have either used their drum lacquered gold (which I know they wouldn't 'cause it'd cost them) or just use tan.

    I don’t mind that the ucs C-3PO is in this set because it’s another premium display set literally about C-3PO. However he doesn’t belong in cheaper sets like people are clamoring for because he is meant to provide some exclusivity value for the people who buy it. Not to resell or anything but just to own something cool and exclusive that they paid a premium for.

    Personally i like the mix of different gold colors, it gives him a nice old and weathered look. Not to mention that he would likely have dozens of replacement parts after his long "life", which likely would have a different color aswell.
    What really bothers me is lego refusing to recolor the joint pieces for some reason

    I gotta think currently at this point Lego knows the droids are really the only feasable and liked buildable star wars sets outside of maybe grogu or yoda. I would love to see them tap into droids more with K2 and IG-88, both would be quite popular and succesful sets. Also with a droideka out its possible we get a battle droid and super battle droid. Hell maybe even a dark trooper from Mando or if they really want to make me happy they could do HK-47 from KotoR, a market they have yet tap into outside of the Revan and Malik minifigs. I would also like to see them bring back the buildable troopers on the level of C-3PO and Chewy as well. I think stormtroopers and clone troopers in that style would be incredibly popular especially for MOC

    I bought R2 mainly because of the rumored 3PO but also because I’ve never gotten one of the buildable character sets, glad R2 and 3PO scale well together. To me 3PO’s eyes aren’t scary, but something is off. Maybe it’s because the face should be flat then sink in for the eyes but the radar dishes first curve out away from the head before curving back in where the trans-yellow studs go for the eyes. Either way, like the set and will get it once it gets a discount.

    Overall, I think C-3PO looks great. I also agree about the "problem" of 'different' silver & gold pieces being used...they could have molded pieces for this set from a single silver, and a single gold. As for the eyes, I don't think them "creepy"...but, they are definitely NOT 'right' - the diameter is to big.
    I plan on "fixing" that problem when I get my C-3PO...but, I'll admit, I have to first figure out 'how' I'm going to fix it. Finally, as for putting C-3PO & R2-D2 together, I've already been at work on a MOC stand that will allow them to be placed side-by-side, while simultaneously retaining the base C-3PO is attached to.

    when the arms came off, it's like the small millenium falcon and the cockpit bridge deck arm... that comes off easily too. I think that, for the price, it's not worth it.
    The stickers are basic
    The arms falling off
    The head
    Other than that it's ok, but not for the price - i think they're getting sloppy.
    Most excellent review though, very detailed. Subbed!

    The fact that they used actual shiny gold for the infinity gauntlet for Marvel and they didnt do it here shows how much less Lego respect us as SW Fans. They know most people would just buy anything they throw at us without complaining. The ridiculous price increase on the next wave its just them testing us, and sadly it will work....
    I have to say I buy most sets at sale a few months after release, and I hope people realize, that if more people just wait for sales, there will be more sales, since the price of the Lego sets its based on what people are willing to pay and not on the actual value of the materials and production.
    The set is really nice, and I wouldve defintely bought it, if it had actual shiny gold pieces, since it looks so good next to R2-D2, prolly will get it anyway at a sale.

    Think it would look good with the big r2?
