    I hear the "we just got this in 2017" argument for Yoda's starfighter so frequently but that is such an entitled, selfish statement. There was a huge influx of LEGO sw fans during lockdowns in 2020 that did not have it. So many of the long time collectors have a self centered attitude that can't be bothered to look at it from anyone else's perspective but their own.

      Yeah I agree. It actually came as a bit of surprise a lot of people hate them; I remember thinking they were cool when they came out when I was still a kid. Thinking back to my kid self, I didn't care too much about "accuracy" in the figure details, and loved the ability to customize them. Given that's lego's primary audience, it only makes sense pretty much every clone has helmet holes. Still, I think things like UCS figures would benefit from not having holes since those sets are one of the few adult-oriented set categories.

    I’ve been out of the loop on Lego Star Wars for a while, but what has happened to the community? There is almost no positivity or creativity, everyone thinks like a hive mind listening to MandR guy and repeating everything he says. Lego should be used to be creative and fun and everyone seems miserable. I think part of the reason of this negativity is the price you’re forced to pay for these. The only sets with good value I’ve seen this year is the Indiana Jones ones, and if people want the prices to go down STOP BUYING THE OVERPRICED SETS. Maybe buy some alternate bricks as well to give lego some competition.

    Another great vid that I enjoyed watching, and I more or less agree with your rankings. I didn’t buy many new releases this year as I ended up concentrating on buying retired UCS sets, but I bought that Venator on day 1. It’s going to look so great with my other UCS destroyers. I have the 2012 UCS X-wing, and I really like it despite not being perfect. My display space is very limited, so I decided to skip it as I just don’t have room for duplicates. If the UCS Tie Interceptor is indeed released this spring, I’ll probably get that since it will be a definitely upgrade from the 2000 version.

    Even though I know price per piece is somewhat unpopular, I still utilize it, but I also count the minifigures at about $4-5 each. I'm only guessing when it comes to how accurate this is, but many more price points (especially stuff like Yavin) are more justified (not that LEGO isn't overpriced no matter what) this way.

    I don’t think anyone who complains about the helmet homes truly understands how inconvenient making 2 different helmet molds (one with holes for captains and specialists etc and one without them for regs) would be for Lego. Take the gunship or the 332nd battle pack for example. Why would they have a singular machine making only helmets with holes for Vaughn and Fox but tons of machines dedicated to the regs. It’s hard to explain but it’s not that hard of a concept to understand.

    Look, despite the controversy of the 322 battlepack, I found it to be one of the best sets this year, along with the 501 specialist

      It’s definitely a good set especially the build like I said in the video. Although it just doesn’t compare to the bigger ones for obvious reason imo

      Have you got anything better to spend your time complaining about? I imagine people actually like the sequels (me included) and that there are far worse things out there in the world.

      @joshslater2426 Why should you care about what I'm doing in my English class? I actually enjoy it and care about my grades, so I'm doing something I cade about. You aren't in my class, so why should you care about what I'm doing a presentation on? Don't you have better things to do with your time than complaining about people you will never meet on the Internet?
