Aqua Raiders was such an underrated theme. I loved it just as much as Power Miners and Mars Mission. Space Police III, Atlantis, Castle (fantasy era), Pirates, Pharaoh's Quest, Vikings, Alpha Team, Racers, Dino Attack, Agents, Ultra Agents, and probably a couple more I'm not thinking of were all peak as well. However, Bionicle will always be, by far, my number 1. And Exo-Force will always be, by far, my number 2.
Great and cohesive video man! Definitely a nostalgic trip through all these awesome themes. Power Miners will always have a special place in my heart - that drill vehicle was a phenomenal design ^^
I still have the 8960 driller & box. Tore the instructions when I was a kid though and some pieces need to be replaced but I’d love a Lego throwback year for these sets :(
This video goes crazy, honored to see some of my power miners coverage here. I would really like this to move towards LEGO bringing back Power Miners and other very short end themes from the 2000’s. The life blood of LEGO to me was Bionicle, Space Police, Agents, Hero Factory, Atlantis, Exo Force, and of course Power Miners.
Great video! This is a topic i have often thought about, glad you were able to put it into words. I agree there is plenty of space to include more original Lego themes into today lineups.
Thanks for this video! I feel the same way and I greatly miss these original themes. Another thing you mentioned but had me thinking was how these themes would usually have exclusive villains for each set, making it so I wanted more of the sets! Versus today I feel like they put the same villain in every set and I feel discouraged to get many sets from a theme or any because i feel the characters included are not special. Versus space police where one set has Brick Daddy for example, I feel that makes the set much more special
Lego has been part of my life ever since I was 6. With my first being Indiana Jones. I sure do miss the days of original Lego themes. Ninjago is great and I've enjoy ever since 2011 but I would be cool to have new themes. Like Power Miners Agents Space Police and many more.
I rebuilt the Mammoth stomper chima set and I could already see the difference, sure the set is pretty skeletal looking and not as detailed as modern sets, but it’s play features are amazing and gives it some charm that I feel like is missing from modern lego
I like power miner's too although i was too young for lego at the time to get any of the sets. But one theme everyone overlooked is galaxy squad that theme was also amazing and should've hung around 😔
I think original sets have to compete with a lot. Back in the day, Lego only had tv and video games to compete with and it was pretty easy to get lost in creativity with legos. Now, every kid has a phone or an incredibly immersive video game or rpg to play. Kids don’t want to be creative, they want the creativity to be already taken care of for them. Kids just don’t want to be creative with Lego anymore, they just want to play with their Star Wars ships and Jurassic park dinosaurs. Also, adults are the reason Lego is so obsessed with IPs now
I’m really curious if there were themes like this on the shelves if I would purchase them now. That being said, there’s blatantly way more creativity from this era than now, and I wish we could get some of that back
I think if they brought back original themes they should undercut their prices on them. If you're getting a set for a kid to build and play with I would buy the one with play features that is cheaper than a recognized ip cause I'm buying it for a kid to play with. So if I got to the store looking for a mech and had to choose between the avatar mech vs a lego original and one's 20 bucks cheaper but has the same features I'll go with the cheaper one
Amazing VIDEO! ............................. Is it possible that you make your TOP-10 LEGO themes list. 1 theme 1 video. For example (Scooby-Doo, Monster Fighters, Pharaoh's Quest, Indiana Jones, Atlantis) and so on...
I WANTED ALL THE ATLANTI'S SET'S!!!!!!!!!!!! I Had The Submarine Base BUT MY BROTHER PUT ALL THE PIECES IN A BIG BIN WHEN I WAS REBUILIND!!!! 6:07 THAT'S THE SET I HAD!!!!
I am more a fan of the 90s themes, but these went in the same directions. I would have loved to have a continuation of the old Aquazone / space / castle series. Not sure why they avoid doing that (ot at least they avoided doing it until recently with the castle and the Galaxy explorer, but it just feels "not enough" for me honestly). That being said, I like the new LEGO themes well enough (Nexo Knights was what brought me back into lego - knights and space all in 1 theme - ninjago is a good replacement for that, however I do wish they would have put all this effort they have put into ninjago in nexo knoghts) and I think I love the Dreamzzz series even more (didn't get all the sets - 2023-2024 was a really full year for me - vikings, castles, space , even Harry and LOTR potter had some nice sets I had to nab and I usually avoid franchise sets) . Maybe they will continue with NEXO knights crossover after they finish the year with RAS - we just need clay and monstrox and some of the Nexo Knights DNA to make the ninja series a bit more knightly with some fancy old castles and knight mechs
First! 😯 Great video bro. I never really got into any of the non-IP themes as a kid since I only wanted to collect Star Wars, but there really were some great sets.
My hot take or whatever is that I only really like Lego dragons with brick built heads, Firstborne is a prime example and dragon head molds never come close to the unique and awesome look built ones have
I buy Lego 0 times to twice a year now that they've abandoned creativity. I just buy the Castle sets. And I mean Castle, not Castle-adjacent like LotR and DnD. Although I would if I could afford them.
I wish that there would be a lot more original themes, I can't get into Ninjago or dreams because with Ninjago I'm not going to watch ten seasons of a show just so I can play with toys and dreams is in a similar situation where I think the sets are cool but I don't care about the plot and I don't want to watch a tv show
I lose interest when somepne uses "literally" for the opposite. I know that language evolves, but using a word that has a pretty specific meaning to express the opposite is stupid.
I wish they had cooler original sets without having to worry about diversity or some crap like that Look I like diversity but when you make your characters which are supposed to be fictional toys Reflect the real world too much, it’s just boring
Bruh what the flip😭 “P-Squiddy”
P-squiddy 😭
That’s wilddd
and P-Squiddy is also a criminal too
really aged badly
Join the squiddy party!
That is hilarious

The bad thing about their original sets now besides not having many original series they are just too expensive
Power Miners to start me day, It might not happen often but when it does I say a whoorah
same here
Great and cohesive video man! Definitely a nostalgic trip through all these awesome themes. Power Miners will always have a special place in my heart - that drill vehicle was a phenomenal design ^^
And alien conquest
love that one
@@brickmasterharriand… Pharaohs Quest
8:16 worst trade since Russia sold Alaska
The power miners set is expensive af
not really when you consider we will never see Power Miners again but Lego is always recreating Star Wars vehicles
I'm so glad we had Power Miners, pure nostalgia🙌🏻
I love power miners! It was one of the first Lego themes I got into!
they're the best! I can't imagine how cool it would be if we got a remake with all our new pieces 🔥
My brother just bought the whole first line of power miners again after he sold his old sets. He’s working on a big moc for them 🔥
Grew up with Atlantis and power miners. Good times 👌👌
These sets are too underrated!!!! I remember seeing adds of the miners. But that Atlantis Neptune Carrier set is *AWESOME!!!!!!*
2:23 with that logic you can apply to all theme even the old one
Agents, Mars, et al were fantastic.
I still have the 8960 driller & box. Tore the instructions when I was a kid though and some pieces need to be replaced but I’d love a Lego throwback year for these sets :(

Lego trying to care a lick for anything that isn’t Star Wars or Ninjago for two seconds (impossible)
Lego barely cares about star wars as of late with their poor quality and community interactions

rock raiders, ice planet, and aquazone aquanaughts & aquasharks
Great video! Need a power miners / rock raiders come back
Ain't no party like a squiddy party
I do love the older sets. I’m starting to invest in those a little bit more as I come across them.
I think they'll only get more expensive as more people join the hobby!
I Alway's Wanted The Space Police set's Especially Squidman
Loved this space police theme
I like power miner's too although i was too young for lego at the time to get any of the sets. But one theme everyone overlooked is galaxy squad that theme was also amazing and should've hung around 😔
There ain’t no party like a squiddy party!
I keep seeing more and more Power Miners..... I need it.
WE NEED MINER MECHS
the theme i miss most is g1 bionicle

Themes are part of the lego sets I regret selling. But i needed the space and money.

and lego agents??? 😭 Am I the only one who remembers it????? 😭

Space Police 😭😭
the BEST
Anyone remember rock raiders?
So that collectors edition Star Wars set is only worth 300$?
Never heard of it actually
Big facts
Bro has so much money for Lego but can’t afford a new shelf.
Im an A-lister at the P squiddy party
broooo nooooooo😭😭

Reflect the real world too much, it’s just boring
Heh you saw the Reddit post didn’t you?
which one?
@@brickmasterharri the one that got like 10k upvotes about how Lego should go back to making actual Lego again instead of just other IP’s
🔥 🔥
I can’t wrap my mind around why your face is cut in half by a Mic?
I know!! totally didn't check to see what angle I was filming at before pressing record. I need to get better with my production haha
Time cruisers and the space sets from 96 to 98 were my favorites as a kid.
The royalty free trap music in the background is making your content hard to watch.
thats good feedback! is it too loud or is it just the genre you're not a fan of?
Power miners NEEDS to come back. It’s the most unique theme Lego ever made, and the play features are incredible
Under 10 minutes 👇
my guy🔥
Now we know Space Police AINT coming back cuz P. Squiddy🫡
So new lego sucks and old lego was better ok got it
