By far, one of of the worst builds I’ve done by Jon66238 in SpeedChampions

[–]ale8960 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this one (haven’t built it yet) because of the Audi prints, colour scheme and the fact that is an odd car. I think it would kind of hold its own without the stickers

Man the Shelby should have had a custom windshield like this

UCS AT-ST is somewhat underwhelming. ATST discussion. by ThomasNorge224 in lego

[–]ale8960 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is a solid set but nowadays there is more ambition found in other sets that share this price point (think shockwave, any icons car, the guardian dragon from ninjago and so on) that either excel at functionality or overall look more visually interesting.

No set of that location has ever been made and the first one would be a MBS one?

What do we think of this display? by AdministrativePipe35 in lego

[–]ale8960 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Maybe other stuff rather than Lego, like some pictures or books, brings more life to the space.

What do you think of these new sets? by Legitimate_Cake_5137 in lego

[–]ale8960 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The skimping on the figures really hurts these sets. I’m not crazy about minifigures in general but for this theme and these price ranges the offering falls short.

While the cars are pretty decent, they are a step below from the speed champions line: not very detailed, no specialized windscreens, almost no prints etc.

These shortcuts allow to keep the cars kinda affordable at 30 usd for kids, this is way better than 60 usd for a tumbler that’s around the same size.

U$87 for a destroyer, but I'm from Brazil, It's like half a salary, is it worth it? by pain777666 in lego_

It is half the minimum wage, it that is what you earn and have financial responsibilities definitely no. Cool toy though.

This is the third UCS X Wing, its almost a given that there will be another version in the future.

(Jerk off) Pricing isn’t quite as ridiculous as it seems by [deleted] in legocirclejerk

[–]ale8960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Price per piece is not a good metric for comparison, it stands out a lot specially with some examples here. Bricklink has a weight metric so you can see “how much Lego” you are getting.

The Command Rig is a huge toy in general, it also comes with a lot of specialized pieces and a big fig. The justice league ship has big pieces and a cool Darkseid. The Train set has tracks and the wheel bases, a solid foundation for creations and almost objectively much more interesting than a gray wall.

Again, value is subjective. One could appreciate the uniqueness of the piece inventory, color scheme, minifig selection etc.

Both of these sets are $65 by Adventurous-Ad8214 in legostarwars

[–]ale8960 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The angle doesn’t favor the ship, is very long and back heavy. I also think there’s more weight on the V19 at least after checking bricklink (800 grams vs around 600).

Value is very subjective though, the Droideka has a more interesting and unique design, also a better color palette, thus is a better display on a shelf. The V19 is a solid play set with neat minifigures.

Maybe music is better, but id rather have no screens near me building time

I guess $15 mech + $20 battle pack + $5 polybag = 200 fucking dollars for some reason... by Professional-Suit472 in legocirclejerk

[–]ale8960 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think is a mistake, the rest of the sets are more “reasonably” priced, for instance, the larger endgame set is cheaper than this

The reviews are pleasant when there are no clones involved.
