@@Thelegosguy yep!😁 also your videos are so good and should get way higher views try putting them into shorts it helps more people find your channel!❤️
Still buying it, I find these level of displays to be exactly what I’m looking for. For under $100 I’m getting UCS displayability for one of my favorite droid units from the clone wars and battlefront. Believe me I’d love a UCS ATAT or Venator but I have neither the budget nor the space. These sets and the diorama collection hit that sweet spot for me if the right scene/build/character comes out.
You said it's not a UCS because those are highly detailed and expensive, but you said this set is very detailed and say it's expensive? I feel like this is a very good set and isn't super expensive for what you get. Price per piece is relative to piece size as well. I don't see how the set is bare minimum. Lego Star Wars struggles when it comes to figures, lack there of and design such as helmet holes. I personally like the variety of sets, the playsets and 18+ sets create a variety. Your video is very well made though and I like your camera work and editing.
Thank you! You make great points. Yes, the set is detailed and also too expensive. I’d bet we can both agree that it’s not on UCS level though. Which has every piece dedicated to displayability. Both can be true I think. This one can’t seem to decide if it wants to be one or the other. As I said in the video, I still think it’s good though! My big issue is seeing less than 600 pieces for $65 with no mini figures, a wasted side build, and pointless plaque. When things like Indiana Jones get sets with the same amount of pieces for $40. I don’t like the inflated price tag on the Star Wars sets. It’s just personal preference. Thanks for watching though!
I really love this thing and having it in hand compared to price there definitely should have been more for the price to fill out some of the build and fix the god awful mini fig droideka but overall the references to the technique model and aim towards adult fan’s justify the product a bit more to me though ill always hope for prints on parts for things like this at this price.
As much as I am a big fan of Lego Star Wars I will agree get the prices have gotten way out of hand, but honestly a lot of Legos other lines have gotten really expensive as well. Solid points and video!
Well. That is your opinion. Each of us must choose on what we will spend our money on and decide if it is worth it. For example. I bought the Venator because I wanted Captain Rex but also I wanted the ship too. It is a magnificent ship. But some people only want Rex and they buy the set to get him. Unfortunately the same Rex will come in the Y-Wing set this summer and will only cost about $13.
I bought it (on discount) but yeaaah these things are getting way way too expensive for what they are. That goes for all of lego, but its felt even moreso in the licenced sets. Its taking away from my enjoyment. For 65 this should be better (no stickers for instance) and it should be more stuff.
Personally i love lego star wars but I agree that there aren't a lot of amazing sets but some of them are pretty cool, and a large amount of the minifigures are spectacular.
There is such thing as a $65 display model. Like I don't understand your point whatsoever. Are you saying sets can only be marketed as display models if they're above a certain price? Which if that's the case that's an absolutely ridiculous argument to make.
My issue with lego star wars is that a lot of times it's just gray plates around a technic frame to make yet another clone or imperial ship. Even as a kid, I've always enjoyed the star wars sets that weren't just some clone or empire gray spaceship a lot more, but they don't make them as much. I love the sets that are of places and scenes, or even just non empire/republic vehicles, so much more. I'm honestly surprised there's no playscale or larger munificent or lucrehulk ship, no nebulon B or MC-80's either. I've kinda moved on to Mega's halo sets and Cobi, since they've picked up the metaphorical pieces lego left behind in its pursuit of collector value items. The build construction and play features are really nice in those competitors and, at least for Cobi, the piece quality is identical. I'm a total manchild for lego and star wars, so pure display/collector sets or figures don't do much for me.
I think you missed my point friend, but I can help clarify. Yes, I said it was for 30 year olds as a joke because it is sort of a display model. That said, I personally feel that this set doesn’t pick a lane. Which is my point in the video. A lot of people can’t afford UCS so this is a nice cheaper end display model. I get that. However, since it’s also trying to be a model with play it has some ugliness that isn’t great for display. I definitely could’ve been clearer in the video but that’s my ultimate issue with this line. Lego Star Wars is not cheap no matter which way you cut it and, in this case, it’s not expensive enough to be a great display. The pod racer diorama is great! It’s under $100 and looks good on display. It picked a lane. For the most part this line doesn’t. Thanks for watching though.
Op is right. The logic in this video is just not right. It's fine to not like the prices, but to not like the sets because of the prices doesn't make sense. Wait for sales and buy the sets. Literally every Lego set goes on sale, somewhere, at some point in its life cycle.
@@MrMcSnuffyFluffy Not sure you finished watching but I can explain what you missed by not paying attention. I said the set is good! But it's overpriced for what you get, the side build is terrible, and wastes parts that should've been used on the main build. I also said it's confusing. It has play features that make the display-ability much worse but is not for kids. It's a display model that wastes room and features child friendly elements. It's confused, messy, and overpriced. Despite this, it's still solid.
I wish it had a shield for it or even just for the mini one I’m still going to get it for display
Agreed! Even if it was just a few pieces to imply that the shield is there.
@@Thelegosguy yep!😁 also your videos are so good and should get way higher views try putting them into shorts it helps more people find your channel!❤️
Good idea! Thanks😎
This set is for adults who don't want to spend half their salary on UCS sets
That’s fair.
yeah, or take up their entire shelf, for me this is the perfect size to have one of my favorite designs from the movies on a shelf
Don’t diss the prequels man all three of those movies were awesome
lol I really hate them but I won’t try and stop you from liking them 😂
OT and PT fans must work together to destroy the ST
Nah fam the phantom menace still sucks
@@brockfoose9892im a fan of both but nah, i'm not whiny like you hardcore sequel haters
phantom menace is kinda boring but it's good i guess

Bruh americans always complain about lego prices
$60 for a lego set ?! Bruh in México that shit is $100!!!
And I’ll do it again lol!
The side build is bad, but the main droideka is great. Your take is all over the place. You're constantly contradicting yourself.
You represent everything I dislike with this one lol
Why you gotta be insulting?
2:24 BROOO I LOVE THESE REFERENCES OK I SUBBED lol

Thanks! It’s true, Lego is a premium toy brand but it feels like the Star Wars seems like the worst offender.

I think the target audience is under 30 and didn't understand the controversy and just grew up always knowing the prequels were star wars.

It’s true. All Lego right now feels out of control. The licensed sets especially are bad.

God damn, hot take after hot take lmao

You called the movies terrible, instant downvote lol byyyyeeeeeee
No one can have an opinion that isn't yours, I understand.
I’m loving these videos man, short and sweet but still valuable and well edited, definitely look forward for more!
Thanks you my friend! More are on the way, I promise!

My point is that it’s expensive for what you get and doesn’t have a clear demographic.
I personally like all of the prequels and it’s your opinion to dislike them, but man come one Revenge Of The Sith is awesome.😭
i love how americans complain about pricing!
$65 for the droid set? try $90 in australia
That’s crazy!
amazing vid
Glad you enjoyed it!
This set isn't meant for kids.
I didn’t say it was. I just said it’s confusing who it’s for.
Okay, so that is understandable. Just thought it mean it, tganks for clarification@@Thelegosguy
Ngl, I'd rather go out with a guy who had a cool Droideka than a boring AT-TE
you're in luck! Here I am!
I must have missed the part where I’m supposed to care
You don’t have too, but you are here.

The repetition of some of those gray UCS models is mind numbing it’s true. At least this one doesn’t have that issue!
dude what. Insane production quality, 31 subs. 32 now.
Thanks!!
You said this set is for 30 year old men and then explained how kids can’t afford it. lego UA-camrs just like to complain smh
