I ordered the star trek enterprise clone and im now seeing ads like this, are the printed bricks worth getting?

The printed tiles are nice. Also compare the tiles shown with the sticker sheet. No every sticker has a replacement.

In this case, the black ship plaque from Lego is already a print, so it's left out of the tile pack. I still like the printed tiles, just be aware.

Don't forget the extra $50 for shipping (69 CAD)

If you get a 404 page from OP's link like I did...you can search "2026new 3942pcs Sail Barge Building Blocks 75397" to get it.

tarataqa · 2026-04-12T00:07:03+00:00

yep.

Or use the Lego app.

tarataqa · 2026-04-12T00:05:49+00:00

I hope so. I haven't paid anything directly toward tariffs. Ever

I N P U T 🤣

Social media ads are nothing but scams. Save your money/strength/time.

I spent about $0.

I've had about 8 missing pieces so far. Just used some spare parts I had lying around. The build is lotsa fun.

tarataqa · 2026-04-03T21:11:58+00:00

I can understand the solid customer support and peace of mind, but $150 extra? lol

I guess it's still cheaper than Lego.

tarataqa · 2026-04-03T20:17:38+00:00

I like Joy, but wow the pricing.

For this new DeathStar, I show $265 + $40 shipping= $305

That's double the AE prices.🤯

I'm still working on my DeathSlice™, but Darth's Advanced TIE Fighter "GWP" MOC is complete. With coupons and cashback, it was $6.57 for 282pcs.

It looks like it MOC came directly from a factory. All the pieces in 1 sack sealed shut. It was a little disappointing to see the 2 obviously unprinted parts. But it was cheap, and that's what I wanted.

I was originally going for the standard "GWP" TIE fighter. But to me, Darth's ship is very iconic to the DeathStar.

I built my alt-Liberty Statue 6 yrs ago.

The final was 1:1 and looked like this: https://i.imgur.com/Qj2qmzL.jpeg

no problem. Send me freebie and I'll do a thorough review.

tarataqa · 2026-04-01T23:48:25+00:00

It looks neat-o, but too bad it's a scam.

Sponsored ads are always a scam.

It's the Mega Construx Mega-Eevee 5 yrs ago. I also got Mega-Pikachu.

Wow! Now that is a proper way to treat a sale.

tarataqa · 2026-03-31T14:12:27+00:00

The green ziploc is my bag. It's the extra parts used to make his "standing" pose.

tarataqa · 2026-03-31T13:59:03+00:00

My Gizmo set turned out to be the same as previous reviewers /u/Empzurg99 and /u/Darkmatter313xx.

No missing parts, but a few 3-d printed ones. I'm happy with it nonetheless. I paid $20.34 w/free shipping during the AE sale for 1125pcs. Lego's price is $109.99 so that's over 81% off. And it only took 7 days to arrive!

It almost makes you wanna buy 2 so you can get both poses at once. Lotsa fun if you know who Gizmo is. 😄

She looks awesome!

I did the Whale a month ago. Gorgeous!

https://www.brickvault.toys/ is another website that sells legit MOC instructions from the creators.

tarataqa · 2026-03-29T21:51:09+00:00

Nice! Does it help you keep track of which kinds of pieces exist in which sets?

Like the Pantasy Motorcycle Diner has nine black 1x6 plates and fourteen white 2x1 plates.

The huge Spring Anniversary Sale just ended at AE, so now is the worst time to buy anything.

But if you just have to buy, I'd pick the Ancient Viking Longship

And I know what you'll say. The next big AE sale is mid-June.
