Would make sense, this is a great $60 set and then add another skiff for an extra $20. Defiantly could've seen it especially because this is accompanying a $500+ set, but no lets just include a $30 skiff and an apparently $50 sarlacc pit.
I mean MandR, you’re not wrong, if this set was going to remain $80, at least another desert skiff and a few of Jabba’s guards would have justified the price and I guess the boba fett minifigure could have use his cape and a slightly different arm printing

How so? 6 mini figures with accessories and 1 of which is a brand new first ever in Lego min figure, not to mention 2 great looking builds. I do agree it’s slightly overpriced, should’ve been $70, but once again people are complaining and overreacting
@@thegreatpiginthesky3904 $50? It should have been a 23 dollar set, I mean if you can do the set once a decade ago for 12 you can surely do the set now for 23.
Boba not having a cloth pauldron is the perfect example of the slippery slope - people defend the printed kamas, so lego figures it's fine to remove cloth from other minifigs too. How long until lego starts cutting corners with the actual builds?
I wouldn’t say people defend them. I think everyone thinks they look bad. The problem is, is that Lego knows that we’ll buy the sets no matter what. The way to get Lego to change things is to not buy the sets where the inaccuracies bother you
@@Darnley_10thats why the biggest way for lego to notice that the fans dont want printed kamas is to vote with our wallet. If we don’t like it just don’t buy it.
What are you talking about?😂 I agree that 80$ is insanely overpriced, but 40$ is asking WAY too much. Considering 558 pieces and 6 minifigs, I would say 60$ would be reasonable, and 50$ would’ve been great
While it isn't shown as an official play feature, the stands on the Skiff and the exposed studs at the rear of the Sarlacc Pit allow you to perch the Skiff upon the edge of the pit, raising the Skiff to an appropriate height and combining both builds into a single diorama-esque display.
I think if it was $85 and came with another Skiff and like 2 more minifigures, this could have been one of the best sets of the year. But $80 for one Skiff is absurd
But how many people actually want two skiffs? Easy solution is $40 Skiff with small Sarlacc like the last one ($10 more because inflation). Then the people who want two can get two, and kids can actually afford it.

Yeah this set is like the Justified from the 2022 summer wave. Great build, WAY OVERPRICED. Definitely gonna wait for it to go on rollback at Walmart or something
For $80 dollars they could have included 3-4 more minifigures Like an update Pagetti Rook or Kithaba, Vedian the skiff pilot, and Velken Tezeri. Note: Pagetti Rook was the Weequay guard released in the 2013 Sail Barge for some reason. Could have included another skiff, I mean there are some lego sets with more pieces for the same price. Lego Star Wars is such a big mess. Edit: Would really love to get a Skiff Guard Battle packs.
The scene doesn’t make sense without Weequay. The whole point was that the heroes are outnumbered in this scene… other than fett, makes no sense for Luke to be in danger
flaws: if rewatch this scene, luke's hair flip always to the opposit side (left, not right). And no yellow stripes on Han's trousers. And no skiff guard ..
Han’s shirt is printed in reverse too. In the movie it looks like they reversed some frames and Lego worked from these, and not the later shots (over the Sarlacc pit) where the frames are correctly used. Compare the figure in this set with a Bespin Freezing Chamber Han Solo and you can see the difference…
"You can recreate from the book of boba fett. Well, i guess it's the wrong boba fett minifigure to be recreating it. " Don't worry, that's the Lego standard.
Not getting this or Battle on Peridea until they are on sale. Anyone complaining about the price but still buying it at full price is part of the problem.
I’ve got the 2017 and the new 2024 skiff and I gotta say that there is much more space in the new one, before all the figures were packed in but now it looks much better on display
Thanks for the review Ryan! Very good set, especially for all us OST fans... AMAZING exclusive minifigure... but TOO EXPENSIVE! Even more in Greece (84.99€)!!! INSANE!!!
Really awesome set, maybe they could’ve made up some of that cost by throwing in a couple skiff guards. That’s my biggest complaint that wasn’t mentioned in this video, I kinda wish the set had a couple generic jabba goons to fight instead of JUST boba Fett. Small thing thoufh
The thing I don't understand is that the Boba Fett figure could have just been made a Return of the Jedi one originally. Like the Mech didn't have to be Empire themed and the figure hasn't been used in any other Empire sets. Just make the mech RotJ and then it would have been accurate in both sets. Just seems like really poor planning.
I have one kislux bag I got in 2019, it's the LV white catogram speedy. It's counter quality and it has a nice honey patina now, so the leather is real. I think whatever makes you happy go for it. I've seen LV with plastic leather and blood red glaze...
Lego has you by the balls on this one , you are a captive audience , most who get the Skiff are getting the Sail barge . Its a complete set 2 months apart . I have been anticipating the Barge since Haslab released their version , as soon as i seen it i thought Lego better get off their rears and give us one too , better late then never . And by judging by the size of the Skiff we know how big the Barge isnt . Top review Ryan .
I just hope that people won't buy the sets that are overpriced with inaccurate figs. I see a lot of reddit posts where people buy things on day one and then complain about the price. Totally valid complaint sometimes, but then don't buy it full price
I feel like this $80 set is the definition of modern Lego Star Wars inflation with many small problems for the set and being overpriced when this is more like $60
Makes me sick that it will cost probably $100 here in Canada. I could never justify that price for so little. Which is sad because my sons(7,4) love the set and will be devastated when we don’t get it. It’s becoming very hard to be a Lego Star Wars fan these days. Love the review Ryan.
Overpriced yes but as an adult that has just started getting into legos, this is on my list to buy. Thank you so much for your reviews. I always wait to buy and see what you say and how you feel about it before making the jump to buy.
I thought this would be a $40 set. Then I saw it was $80 which was insane. After seeing the scale of the sarlacc, you could argue $50 maybe $55 possibly even $60. But $80?!
I hate how much lego has to charge for Lego products licensed from Disney. All of their Disney branded products are so much more expensive than they need to be
I saved $300 to buy discount lego today... I walked away with a $15 base plate.. I can't even justify buying them at discount price.. still way to expensive
Most of the sets recently have been defendable in terms of price but every single set past the June wave is indefensibly expensive and disappointing even without considering price
These sets are probably so high because of the 25th anniversary figures. Lego know a lot of people want to complete the line up, so they're raising prices ridiculously high because they know the sets will sell
Other issues not mentioned: The ugly 2x4 brick sticking out. Boba Fett's face is his Book of Boba Fett face, with sarlacc scarfs. Boba Fett wasnt on the skiff, he was on the Sail Barge. Pilot is missing. Skiff should be hoovering higher above the pit. Luke Skywalker has hair from Book of Boba Fett / Mandalorian Luke.
At least those can make sense for play to represent him getting out of the pit I guess. Makes me wonder. Did they also use the wrong armor in Book of boba fett's sarlaac pit flashback. That would explain a lot. Considering how toy manufacturing works. This ism't the first time a starwars toy follows too closely the reference material they are sent in. But this one has to be one of the funniest.
Even if the bigger Sarlacc was worth the extra $50 (which it definitely isn’t), it would still be a bad set. The Skiffs used to be one of those cheap little sets that kids could afford. What kid is gonna appreciate the pile of added tan bricks if it means it costs over twice as much as the last one. If the Sarlaac needed to be bigger to coincide with the UCS Sail barge, then they shouldn’t pretend that this is a 9+ set.
I can't wait to get this on bricklink for cheap minus the Nien Numb figure. The same thing happened for the new R2d2 with Malak. You can get the r2d2 for about $35!
I'm glad I have one of the earlier desert skiff sets. If I didn't this would be a must have, but that price point would make it difficult,so a pass for me.
Feel like the sail barge should’ve came first and the sarlac after like thr no way home set and sandman as like a dlc. I would’ve liked dual molded legs for han
Agreed with your takes. What’s cool though is the nein numb torso can be used as a purist rebel friend torso Edit: yooooo someone beat me to pointing that out lol
For reference when this set was first rumored to be $80, I assumed it would have TWO Desert Skiffs & a Sarlacc Pit...
only the best is good enough. now give us 80 bucks

You're right about the Fett figure. Wild price for the wrong fig!

That Luke Skywalker figure is amazing! Need to pick this up on sale
Would I look cheap if I give the lego employees less than $100? There's taxes and then I should round up for a tip.
I'm glad I have one of the earlier desert skiff sets. If I didn't this would be a must have, but that price point would make it difficult,so a pass for me.
Feed Me, Seymour!!
MNR, Lego sets the price before they design the set, the designers build to the budget.
I would love to hear how Lego chose the price for this set. Like what specifically in this set made it worth $80 to them?
$80 for a flying canoe and a sandbox 😂
Paying 80 dollars for a build that's 50% sand
Feel like the sail barge should’ve came first and the sarlac after like thr no way home set and sandman as like a dlc. I would’ve liked dual molded legs for han
Agreed with your takes. What’s cool though is the nein numb torso can be used as a purist rebel friend torso
Edit: yooooo someone beat me to pointing that out lol
I want it real bad honestly, but it’s got to be on sale. Price is absurd
Cool review 🙏
I juste made an Alternate Build of this set, an AAT 😃
And the instructions are my Rebrickable 🙏
(Same pseudo)
Set is already discounted to 60€ in some retailers
