Comment your hot take below!
Blue bricks are the ONLY colour that taste good.
My hot take is that Lego should make sets more accessible to people with giant Hands like me I find it quite hard to get my hands inside the set to move the minifigure when I am making stop motion
Yes
Edna mode’s head is not as cursed or scary as 2008-2010 chancellor palpatine. He still gives me nightmares
Ninjago is only good before they changed art stile
My hot take is that people need to stop complaining about repetitive build experience of sets; there is no way Lego could fix it, and besides you only have to do it once in your life and then the set is permanently assembled and you never need to do it again. Nothing infuriates me more than seeing people treat something unavoidable like an objective flaw of a set
I can agree with this 😌👍
Maybe they need to stop buying so many legos
This is true
Nah, if something isn't fun it isn't fun. If the process is more important to the person than the end result, your argument fails apart.
@@NB-is6pb I'd like you to suggest one way in which Lego could do anything to fix this. Also just because some people have that mindset doesn't mean everyone does, and if a set makes at least 1 person happy it deserves to exist.
Hot Take: Lego should make more unlicensed sets and more themes of their own.
More knights
I agree. They should really lean into the historical time periods. Aztecs & Mayans, Three Kingdoms, Shogunate Japan (just think of the ‘wood’ working opportunities!), Ancient Mediterranean, and the age of exploration to name a few. I think a tall ship navigating the northwest passage would be cool; or a cargo sledge with polar bear hunting party. Pirates and Knights show that there is lots of potential love for unlicensed historical stuff.
A lot of people think that, so I’m not sure if it’s a hot take.
A
A
Another take: Modern Lego instructions have too many steps with too few bricks added in each step.
Agreed!
Yeah, although conversely I would say the older sets didn't have enough.
I kinda like it like that since I'm not overwhelmed with finding tons of pieces to use for one step
They can feel a bit silly to me, but I think that it probably helps accessibility for some, and I think that benefit outweighs any con.
I have definitely found myself saying "they made an entire step for that?!" a few times but I don't think I would prefer adding a half pound of bricks every step either.
Hot take: lego should remaster more sets. Not only 1980s-1999. But also the early 2000s.
Well they have Vikings had a remake, Tahu did too the Stealth hunter is also getting a stealth remake. We get regular support for them in cmfs just as well as anything from the 80s.
Might be a bit of a cold take, but I think Lego needs to focus less of licensed themes and give us more new and old themes of their own design.
Yes but what is a cold take
@@Adthereccomendationsguyan opinion that most people won’t be upset about
@@Forgotten-Lilly oh ok thank you
molten hot take: lego needs to re-release retired lego sets, they dont even have to update them but if they re-released one or 2 sets a year it would fix the rampant resell market, and i can get a decent clone wars set for under 300 dollars :/
Y E S
It's a win-win. Besides remaking lost piece molds, it takes no effort on Lego's end because the set is already designed, so they get money from the thousands of consumers who want exact old sets. It's an obvious win for the consumers because they won't have to pay exorbitant prices for something that they want.
The only issues are that:
1. Lego has so many beloved themes that just one or two per year wouldn't cut it. I wouldn't trust Lego to rerelease what we actually want. If I were Lego I would make a vote for the fans to pick one set from each Lego original theme to be rereleased in its original form. There's just too many LEGO sets out there for them to rerelease every set from any line.
2. They most likely wouldn't re-release sets EXACTLY how they were (no matter how much we want them to). I didn't like the Ninjago Legacy series for that reason. I don't want a new version of the set, I want THE set.
3. It would be difficult to make profitable since they would most likely have to remake many now-destroyed piece molds.
4. Sorry to Lego Star Wars fans, but there are simply too many sets for the specific one you want to be rereleased.
Sadly, I think exact set rereleases are gonna have to stay in my dreams.
I REALLY want that police command set 60139 again
My hot take is that Lego is way to focused on the collectors anymore and going along with that, ITS WAY TOO DAMN EXPENSIVE
i feel you bro
YES!!! Almost every cool good set now is hundreds of dollars.
Not a hot take. Bro be spitting facts
That it not a hot take it’s a cold take.
@@bricksterstudios1015it’s actually hysterical how many people have 0 clue what a hot take means. They’ll say “HOT TAKE:” only to give the most universally agreed upon opinion of all time
9:57 Honestly, i have to agree with jason. I mean, they do hurt, but its like getting a shot. It only hurts for a second, and then the pain is over
I agree
It only hurts when the piece breaks from being stepped on, because now you can't use that piece anymore.
I’ve literally never even felt it. But then again, I stepped on a nail facing straight up one time, and it didn’t go through my foot, so I guess the bottoms of my feet are just made of steel.
I think the reason the City theme is struggling is because it's too vehicle-focused. If we got more sets like, say 60380 Downtown, it might be doing better.
Also, I agree with the last take wholeheartedly. I really wanted that Medieval Blacksmith set that came out in 2021, but it's already been retired. It's not fair.
Also the characters, I doubt kids want named minifigs for Lego City. i remember as a kid playing with the cops and crooks, they all looked the same and I would swap faces and bodies to create my own stories…
@@Comuzzy Yeah, a lot of the fun of LEGO sets is coming up with your own characters.
Not a hot take but... Lego Space should be its own seperate theme again. Not bound to Lego City and Lego Star Wars. I miss Ice Planet, Space Police and Blacktron.
My hottest take is that Bionicle doesn't need to come back. I say this as a huge Bionicle fan and collector, but it had a good run and I don't know that they can ever recapture that lightning in a bottle again.
I think we can all agree that we want the REAL backgrounded box arts again.
Agreed. Solid black background was fun for a while but it’s pretty stale now and lacks excitement.
@@ChrisTwoFourbut isn’t the solid black only for the adult focused sets in order to indicate them?
@vast9467, you're right. It helps indicate the 18+ range. However, I bought the creator expert mustang and it was just more exciting to see it with box art then the box of the icons Porsche. A minor issue I know, but enjoyment of lego starts from the time I see it in the store and have to save up for it😁 still fair point you made
A cold take
I have a potentially hot take: Creator 3-in-1 sets are the best value for your money. It's literally 3 toys in one box and (usually) the alternate models are pretty good. I have the white rabbit set but right now it's in the cockatiel build sitting on my pc monitor. I just live the variety of sets that come out every year and the options in each set. I have a few of the dragons and cars myself and I love them a lot.
They're also some of the few Lego sets today that actually live up to the premise of the whole system, rebuilding a toy into a different toy. The modern uber expensive replicas of random items in a house are much lamer in comparison, and I genuinely wonder why anyone would prefer them over say, a model kit, which would both be cheaper and more fun, as you get to paint the model after you build it, giving it your own touch, unlike Lego sets, which are actually somehow a very dystopian concept of everyone building an exact same art piece to display, with no original touch or creativity, just plastic fake radios as far as eye can see.
Creator is the most LEGO of all LEGO themes. Everything LEGO is all about at its core, wrapped up in one theme. I actually kinda miss when Creator was the only theme that specifically never included minifigures, because that was like an identity statement to tell you Creator is all about actually building something. Too much of LEGO culture is just people obsessing over minifigures now, which makes Creator sets feel like a refreshing reminder of what LEGO is really for.
I disagree it always makes me want to buy three and go over budget to get all the builds
No, it just steals from original themes. “Oh, you want pirate ships, castle, space and more? Oh ok well put it is one theme where it gets one set per 5 years and there extremely expensive” -modern Lego
Also, there are usually a lot more Creator 3-in-1 MOCs on Rebrickable than other themes. Probably because it strongly encourages creativity, and all the pieces for them mesh well. They also use a lot more flat colors, and a lot less printing and stickers.
my hot take is that the lego molded dinosaurs are actually good, they allow for lego to actually focus on the brick built parts, instead of having to make a weird not-quite-right looking lego dino and a lazy looking lego car
besides, molded parts on lego dinosaurs have been a thing since the beginning of lego dinosaurs, the first lego dinosaur line, "dinosaur" used primarily unique molded sets, and they have always looked off, so you can't say "lego therizinosaurus bad" and also praise the lego dimetrodon, which looks nothing like a dimetrodon whatsoever
also maybe not as much of a hot take, but when are we getting a new lego dinosaur theme like a lego caveman theme or lego walking with line?
(also yet another time wondering where proper lego portal sets are)
The adventures stego and trex
It truly isn’t that painful to step on any lego piece, not even spiked, or sharp ones
A
not even the Lego lighter?
Man, it's much more painful it SHOULD be!
That's true. Sure, it's not nice, but they're really not that awful. I wonder what the Lego haters do when they get to a beach that isn't just perfect sand.
It’s not horrible but I would say it’s a little worse than stubbing your toe
Lego needs to stop making so many huge expensive sets, there should only be a few a year, or one a theme
There should be more cheaper affordable sets
I agree with GWP problem and retiring sets too quickly
Ninjago destroyed not only so many subthemes and themes, but also flatout stole Bionicle's thunder alongside Star Wars.
The latter theme also ending Constraction thanks to the abysmal Solo movie-themes sets.
Ninjago has gone on for too damn long and needs to either stop or have a break for a few years in order to let other themes breathe.
Ninjago should’ve ended with rise of the oni. Ever since they added Sora and Arin the show has been ruined.
Hot take: Lego Speed Champions set designers need to be in charge of building Star Wars sets. Speed Champions cars have such amazing builds, and Star Wars could benefit from that.
Hot Take: Voldemort being the only LEGO minifig to have a nose, despite famously NOT having one is the most cursed design idea LEGO has ever come up with.
U FORGOT SQUIDWARD
gollum had a nose print too
The cowboy outlaw had a nose
What about Pinocchio?
That's neither true nor a hot take
9:03 - Hey thats me! Lol
You‘re right
Lol 5 year old
@@TFSM_studios
Anybody: *Enjoys something*
Random person in youtube comments:
"This is unacceptable"
@@ShinyShinyIsAlwaysBeingSerious I'm saying 5 year old because those kids eat that now unless you are an adult then act like one
I lowkey want lego space police to come back the minifigures were so creative and the sets itself were designed well and very much detailed
Yesssss Space Police 4: Space Precinct 🤩
Hot Take: Lego Store is one of the worst places to buy Lego. I can with almost 100% certainty buy every set with a 30-50% discount.
I hate dusting legos. I’ll just disassemble and rebuild the whole thing, wiping anything that needs it along the way rather than dust it still assembled.
I use a variety of make up brushes, different sizes for different details.
It takes time but can be fun.
I hate the licensed sets taking over everything like a cancer - Lego should be Lego
There need to be more historical sets like knights , vikings , gladiators
We need a fully fledged ancient Egypt theme that's NOT focused on 19th century Indiana Jones proxies.
Here’s my hot take: LEGO doesn’t have *A* golden age, cuz they’ve been throwing out bangers for decades!
9:58 Jason Is Right, Stepping on Lego barely feels like anything
your too powerful to be left alive.
My hot take is that Lego speed champions is one of the best themes for what you pay for. Although they’re starting to get pricy they’re so worth it. An 8 stud wide car with a figure is so worth it for the prices
I won't say that any one time was Lego's golden age, but I am miffed that they no longer have many of their own themes. Space, Castle, Pirates, Western, Aquazone, etc were all really good themes, but all seem to have been dropped by the wayside, in favour of licensed themes
My hot take is lego should lower prices
Not very hot, though; I think everyone thinks that! Lego has gone crazy with pricing.
Always wait for a sale. ✌️
Agreed.
Completely glacial take
@@moonshoes11 But it seems like most of the sets I want never go on sale... Either that or I just never catch them
I like Lego mixels and wish they would bring it back
i have only a below 0 take.
Hero Factory should have its parts renewed so people can make MOCs with them rather than spending admittingly far too much on the 3rd market for pieces that were only available in years people didnt have an interest in until recently.
genuinely just want hero factory pieces to be back in stock lmao.
The lack of a King K. Rool figure really brings down the entire Lego Donkey Kong line.
GWD _does_ suck. I bought the D&D set within hours of launch, while the mimic dice box was still being actively advertised, and still didn't get one because they ran out.
Elves retired too soon and I want my girl Naida back :(
Hot Take: Taking apart Sets with a Brick Seperator is unbelievably satisfying.
Wait until you try the MEGABlocks separator
I think this is more of a cold take as all of us agree😭
Hot take: Lego should make more ideas sets that come through
My hot take comes via Duckbricks’ tour of a LEGO workshop and discovering firstly LEGO have a humungous stash of long retired super rare elements. But more distressing they keep a humungous stash of current parts in unreleased colours - from mixel joints in every colour imaginable to the larger plates and bricks in trans colours. That’s cheating, LEGO!
Hot take: Lego should focus more on the CITY theme and less on or get rid of licensed themes. Lego CITY sets nowadays are super underwhelming and there aren't many options to choose front. Lego is even considering monster truck sets as Lego CITY, like what?
Agree but we probably should focus on all the other original themes
My hot take kinda aligns with yours. They should make more actual city sets, but I want them to make stuff that could actually help you build a city, like skyscrapers, and cranes, and cargo boats, and somewhat decent planes.
My hot take is that Lego bags shouldn’t have become what they are today. A
4000 piece Lego set in 2016 had like 5-7 bag numbers, but modern ones have over 30. There would be no need for Lego to make eco friendly bags if they just filled up the bags like they used to and also made less like you used to.
Better yet, use eco-friendly bags AND fill them up properly.
Or better yet, don't use bags at all. Have people dig through everything for what they need.
@@VestedUTuber the paper bags are way worse. I don’t think a little plastic bag is going to change much when the whole toy literally is made out of plastic
@@Comuzzy
Except you're not immediately disposing of LEGO elements like you are with the bags. The bags are single-use.
@@Comuzzy I honestly prefer the paper bags. It’s sturdy enough and much easier to dispose of.
Bro, I never step on Legos, I’ve had them for my whole life, but I basically never step on them. I don’t get why people make such a big deal about this.
My hot take: Lego should make more Simpson sets and or with collab with futurama
lego family guy would be a big hit with collectors I think
Hot take: a parts pack filled with new recolors would've been a better way to send Bionicle off than Stars ever was
Rock Raiders FTW!
Recently I built a lot of older sets and then came back to a newer set and found myself forgetting the box in the corner with the step pieces existed.
Hot take:
Chima and Nexo knights way cooler than Lego Star Wars
Bro tbh nexo nights was soo epic
@@mayonnaise42069 i want it back so much 😭
Nexo Knights was great
@@QalOrt it really was!
Chima is on the same level but Nexo knights might be the best lego series ever besides Ninjago.
7:09
I think we may have slightly offended him...
Lego Ninjago and it's popularity killed Lego's ability to create unique new themes.
I have never agreed more with something that I whole-heartedly hate.
What about Dreamzzz?
But they keep making new themes, and they do alright but cant survive for very long, Bionicle didnt prevent Ninjago, Ninjago didnt prevent Monkie Kid, they are just rare examples of extremely successful lines
I hate that you are right
@@joeunknown7601 only right if you don't look at legos history
Although I do not think Galidor should be revisited. The figures were very high quality and way better than they are given credit for. People always show the wonky crappy burger toys. But the real figures were brilliant! Lots of proper action figure manufacturers can learn a thing or two from Lego on how to make high quality figures.
I really enjoyed the Jack Stone theme back in the days.
Honestly me too
The absolute peak of Lego was when I could buy Lego from a toystore near me by weight. Just go in there scoop up random pieces you like into a bag from a huge bucket and weight them. Lego is at its best when you have random parts and you just build what ever you want.
I forgot about galidor
ALL FOOLS!!!! It’s the radioactive coloured ones that taste the best. Oh and one more thing CONSTRICTAI ARE THE BEST SERPENTINE
Nah the fangpire is the best tribe
hot take: Lego should re-release Bionicle gen 1. no changes to the sets beyond using newer versions of some of the pieces. Make movies for each arc, accounting for retcons.
I don't think it would be a good idea. Bionicle G1 was always lacking in articulation and often had generic and repetitive builds. The main characters were McDonald's toys and gear functions loose. Lots of the retcons explained away the mystery the most core part of early bionicle and what people in.
@@n_ex13 never thought I'd encounter someone with the wrong opinion on bionicle's story
but here we are
@@Monkchelle_Kongbama well maybe I should correct myself.
Most retcons (aside from a couple very late in the game) were good
The problem is all that mystery is gone if you re-lease it it's just the already spoiled.
Early bionicle is fundamentally built on the mystery and well without that it's hard drawing in new fans.
@@n_ex13 sometimes I slather myself in oil and pretend I'm a slug
@@Monkchelle_Kongbama great to know
When Space added yellow minifigs, THIS was the truly golden age of LEGO. Not the minifig itself, just that era.. but yeah, the hype when a YELLOW (and blue) minifig was added was earth-shattering!
FABULAND was equally as monumental.
Hot take: Lego should make a set with no instructions and the first person to build it correctly gets a tour of the Lego factory by its eccentric owner Lego Lonka
Lol I build all my LEGO sets without instructions 😂
My hot take is that LEGO should make Technic pins available in all colors instead of color locking them, at least for the TFOL/AFOL sets!
2:46 ah yes my favriote series. the "Orient Express"
Johnny Lightning is my favorite LEGO character too.
Not sure how hot this take is but LEGO need to slow down on releasing so many new pieces. So many new pieces can be made with existing bricks and don't provide and extra stability. Would also reduce people complaining about low piece counts are!
Any piece that can be built from other pieces, I call that a “cheat piece”. I just today built a classic boat dock piece 2617 out of smaller grey bricks and tiles.
Stepping on legos doesn't hurt enough
You made me realize that my hot take is this: Time Cruisers is one of the best and THE most underrated theme ever.
IDK if it's a hot take, but in my experience the worst piece to step on by far is an upside-down CCBS armor piece. That's the only time I've ever had a Lego piece draw blood
the Quatro line should get more specific grab-bags, like a mountain grab-bag or farm grab-bag
10:34 President Business, is that you?
My hot take:
Short Version: Lego needs to stop making new shows and start making new themes
Long Version: Every new lego original theme since Chima has tried to emulate the success of Ninjago. It seems like every single Lego theme has to have a show to explain why every set is the way it is. But now, those shows aren’t even of broadcast TV, so they aren’t giving NEW exposure, the shows are only being seen by the people who decide to seek them out. I think if Lego released a new theme, and used only tradicional advertising, the money saved from not producing an accompanying series could actually make the line more profitable in the long run. Maybe if a line proves successful, then they can start a show to give it more exposure.
Looking at it
You do have a point but well the reason why they make shows has changed for one you can't really gain anymore exposure through ads than they already have.
Secondly Lego is just much much bigger than in the two thousands, a success than would be a failure or at best average now. The cost of a show cuts much less into the profits of any given theme.
Thirdly it serves not to make people aware but to attach fans to it. Create loyalty to the theme
@@n_ex13 Firstly, I agree, Lego probably can’t get any new exposure from ads at this point is its life. Where I live at least, you’d have to live under a rock to not know what Lego is. I mean, no other toy gets whole isles to itself as consistently as Lego does. That being said, the goal of advertising isn’t always new exposure, it’s often exposure of things like new products (say perhaps, a new Lego theme) or literally just a reminder that the product exists. You know what Coke is, but they hope that by showing you an ad for it, you’ll want to buy a coke.
I agree that the space has definitely changed. That’s why they keep working with the Ninjago model, because it brought them success. That being said, risks often are what lead to the biggest successes. Bioncle was something completely different from anything Lego had done before when it came out. It wound up being one of the things that saved Lego from collapsing back then. Did that sprit of risk have its flaws? Yes! Stuff like Znap and Glalidor came out about the same time. But that was when Lego was at its lowest, and they tried anything, everything, to save themselves. Now, they’re bigger than ever, and they take less risks than ever when they can afford the most hits.
Finally, yeah, tv shows ARE great for creating loyalty to a theme. I agree with that statement entirely. I just personally wish Lego would make smaller, more disposable, themes that you don’t need to convince people to come back and buy again year in and year out, although that is 100% personal preference on my part.
Hot take, my favorite themes are more recent, I have a lot of Architecture and Botanical.
The idea sets are amazing I would love to add the Titanic set but ya know it’s VERY EXPENSIVE.
Both add so much color and an interesting visual to a room.
I have the skylines, multiple flower sets, Bonsai Tree, and my current crown jewel the Himeji Castle.
My hot take is that Ninjago needs to take a few steps back and use some time and assets to work on other original lego themes, its been going on for a long time and seems kinda repetitive to me, even know i love the new wave
1. Galidor is only bad if you didn’t play Galidor Quest
2. Lego City would be much better if they could connect with the modulars or in a similar way without customization. (Also needs less cops)
3. Lego Friends has some cool looking sets but they should just use regular minifigs - it’s a big reason I don’t buy any of the sets.
Agreed about the figs! And Lego City could do delivery vehicles, moving vans, and I’d like to see Post Office or News Studio.
Agreed
can you do a video on LEGO stopmotion youtubers? and techniques?
Hello there! I second that!
@@BrickStopmotions hello!
I prefer a sets playability and gimmicks over its accuracy or detail
Yeah same
It's true: stepping on LEGO actually feels nice. Just like walking barefoot on gravel. Those 2x2 tiles with technic pins are some of the nicest feeling ones.
Hot take: It is hard to find a set with a lot of classic bricks in these days and not pay for it a great amount of money.
Have you ever looked into Lego classics and pick a brick might be interesting
@@n_ex13 Lego Classic is the best in these days, but try to compare the amount of these pieces to the older boxes of bricks from like 2006. And yes, Pick a Brick exists, but only on lego website, so there's no way to pick it up personally. As a child, I got 2 boxes of basic pieces, each one was about 1000 pieces, that's impossible to buy now.
5:37 that would be the Caribbean Clipper!! It did not come out in the 90's, it came out in 1989 as part of the first wave of Lego Pirates. That hull piece did not come with it, it's bow section piece was one color. And at age 46 I still have this set from when I was 13. and it is 100% complete. as are all of my First wave of Lego Pirates sets.
And those pirate ships sure like to collect dust, don’t they? They’re shaped like a bowl, everything gets down in there…
Ok I gotta say it. Rock Raiders is better than Power Miners. PM is a weird neon mess and RR has a spot on excavation design and color palette. And the game!
The 1990s pirates theme is one of the greatest Lego themes of all time
Orient Expedition is so nostalgic for me. Bring it back. 😎
Hot take: Stepping on Lego isn’t that deep
Hot Take: The theme Lego MIXELS did not deserve to get butchered. It was mishandled, and could've been a success like Bionicle.
Hot take: bionicle should not have been a success
Hot take, Lego friends is one of the most detailed and underrated themes
my hot take: Lego nowadays has way to much themes
11:05 I also do that. I rarely look at the little square which leads to sometimes making mistakes. But nowadays it us pretty easy to do it.
My favourites are Legoland Town and Model Team, with growing up in that era of Lego.
Hot take: lego only hurts to step on if its an accident also blue bricks do taste better than red bricks red bricks just taste like micro plastics
Aah the Pirates line! Even though I had maybe 2 or 3 small sets, for some reason they feel the most nostalgic to me. I loved that Captain figure, the parrots, monkeys and the gold coins.
The dude talking about looking at only the picture is exactly how Ive been building for years
4:06 I agree with Ayden, tho it may be nostalgia kicking in.
1. 80s-90s
2. now
3. else
Stepping on a Lego brick only hurts if you don't expect it to be honest
I feel like Time Cruisers theme is now the Dreamz theme.
I do agree that Lego retires sets a bit too quickly, I understand they make a lot of sets and need room in stores to sell the things but as a new fan it´s pretty annoying to find a set I want only to learn it costs 300+ bucks because it´s not available anymore
I remember my mom asking me if I've ever heard of a Lego set called Galidor. I replied, "Yeah, it's crap."
Every Lego I build is spot the difference. Even big ones like titanic. Not for the detailed sections with small parts with their own instructions but for everything else yes and it’s never failed.
Discovered you today and watched a few of your video, they brough back nice memories, but i disagrees with jack stone being bad, guess i have a hot take.
Jack stone series was really interesting and good.
My first lego was the 4668 crane truck, which i was so proud of because i made it 100% without the manual as a kid.
My dad bough the Jack stone VHS video i had played so much time.
This VHS was one of the first historical 3D movies at Lego attempt and was really nice for that time.
Hot take: There is no greatest year for Lego, they’re all fantastic
Adventurers was probably my favorite LEGO line of all time. I loved them as a kid and still remember them very fondly.
Hot take, I think a lot of collectors are way too obsessed with minifigures to the point of missing the forest for the trees, ignoring sets with BANGER builds solely because of a lack of exclusive minifigures
Also, a hot take of mine is that you can still use broken pieces for detailing, if you can think of a certain detail to use them for.
my weird hot take is that city has always been over hyped. Creators always make videos like "hey check out my $10,000 lego city!" But to me at least, the sets always seem too similar and just completely forgettable.
hot take: most clone brands are just as good as lego and just as fun to build
Lego should have better ways of getting your hands on retired sets maybe poll for rereleasing sets and collections
I personally am missing the tie fighter helmet set from my collection and the only way to get it now is the second hand market
