    I wish Lego would reissue the Medieval Village for those of us who weren't even collecting Lego 15 years ago. But I realize that it's very rare for Lego to re-release sets with some few exceptions like the Saturn V Rocket.

  • @charlietrumpet96

    My issue with Lego at the moment is the sheer amount of expensive sets being released each year! Used to be only a few but now there’s loads and there’s no way of collecting them or catching up. A smaller castle range would be better or even split that set into three and sell them separate I’m sure a wider market could be reached that way

      Big globalist corporations are in a stage of maximizing wealth and assets before those psychos in 10k suits and reeking of hugo boss bankers / satanists push Red Buttons/ engineer Events that usher in their global one world government / "aka "New world order" . Any day now it seems sometimes.

    • @HollyOnFilm
      @HollyOnFilm  Před 4 měsíci +7

      I’m with you, it’s wild to me that the Village and Cottage are releasing the same month. Stuff like that would be every few months not two every month. I am VERY selective with large sets now as a result cause it could get out of hand easily. What they’re making is often fantastic, but because there’s so many, even if I love it I pass on it. A great displayable playset will always be my favourite

    I think that staying away from LEGO Technic in general is a very smart decision. it's getting worse and worse with the years and the real highlights are few and far between. I've always been a big fan of the system and I'm general pretty brand-loyal to LEGO but the Technic system sets other brands are putting out are just so much better on so many levels, it's not even funny anymore. they are making giant leaps ahead while LEGO is walking backwards.

  • @___David__
    @___David__ Před 4 měsíci +3

    It's definitely a strong March wave. To me I only care about Castle, Harry Potter and the G-canon Star Wars sets.
    Will I buy anything on day 1? Probably not. I would normally get the entire Harry Potter wave, but this wave is so weak that I rather wait for Amazon to put them all on discounts.
    As for Star Wars, I'm leaving those for the May 4th promotions.
    So I will *maybe* get the Medieval Market on day 1. Maybe. I agree that it's a bit underwhelming considering the 230€ price tag.
    As for the Snow White cottage...I'm leaving that to promotions elsewhere. I don't really want to encourage LEGO's new tactic of stealing designs from fans who submitted it on Ideas, releasing virtually the same set but cutting out the fan designer.

    • @joevictor53
      @joevictor53 Před 4 měsíci +2

      I have to agree about Snow White. It's totally disgusting what Lego did. With previous cases like the Ghostbuster Firehouse and the Jurassic Park Gate set, I gave them a pass. The firehouse was already an existing IP thanks to the first Ideas set and they did give the fan designer a free copy of the set. The JP gate designer had already made a T-Rex MOC years ago and just moved it over to Jurassic Park. This time, there's no excuse. Lego straight up stole Snow White from that fan. They said they would consider it, cancelled it and then made it themselves. If they'd rejected it straight away, maybe you could argue that it was in production but the fact that they considered it shows that they weren't planning on making it before the fan submission

    We're getting ripped in aus dollars on some of these sets. Target and kmart like 20% off a lot of the time. We all have some we buy of release but 50% we always wait for. I'll be buying the medieval village on the day but waiting for snow white cottage. Stitch brickheadz is a must on the day though.

  • @stevegallo8483
    @stevegallo8483 Před 4 měsíci

    I agree about the March wave of Star Wars sets. I'm not a an of the midi scale ships. A second buildable R2 on the shelves doesn't make sense to me either, even though the new one comes with a 25th anniversary figure (first ever Darth Revan). Will get the Boarding the Tantive IV set. Definitely interested in the Harry Potter sets. It looks like the new forbidden forest set will connect to the new Hagrid's Hut.

    Als a propper lego fanboy I'm totally fed up with the high prices and close to switching to Mould King instead. They have a couple of brilliant sets as wel. and... for a fraction of the price. Lego is making a capital mistake and risk losing a huge fanbase just because of corporate greed.

    I feel foolish for buying the Hogwart castle sets 2021-2023 as the new wave looks epic and I'm not gonna rush out and spend like I had done. I wonder how much the total cost for new Hogwarts will be $700-$750?

  • @joevictor53
    @joevictor53 Před 4 měsíci

    That's awesome that your grandpa worked for McLaren. I used to be a casual fan of F1 as a kid and that's the only set of the whole F1 line up that interests me. It's not perfect but I love the idea of getting Senna's car and one that will go with the Lego Icons vehicles.
    I'm so excited for the midiscale ships. I want to have ships on display but I'm definitely not spending UCS amounts for them nor do I have the space. Right now I have a few playscale ships but these are much better for me. I'll definitely be waiting until they go on sale though. Totally agree about R2-D2. They either should've waited until the previous one retired or skipped that one for now and just released this one.
    Looking forward to Snow White but I'm hoping it goes on sale

    • @HollyOnFilm
      @HollyOnFilm  Před 4 měsíci +1

      I hope Snow White becomes one of the icons sets that goes to third party retailers so it can get discounted too. There’s a small part of me that would love two to combine them but at that price I could never justify it

      @@HollyOnFilm same. I live in the UK and it's £190 here. If it comes down to £160-170, I think that would be great. If not, I might have to cash in some points.
      I'd love for you to do a video on Lego sets that came through Ideas but we're made as non-Ideas sets. Like the Ghostbusters Firehouse, the Jurassic Park gate and this Snow White set. The first 2 were a bit more okay because they already had the license but this one does seem a bit dodgy due to them considering it through Ideas first before rejecting it and releasing this

  • @arghjayem
    @arghjayem Před 4 měsíci

    06:20 I get the thinking in some ways….after all it’s not the only time a design of a thing has been done at multiple price points at the same time. I mean there was a time when there were I think 3 different versions of the Millennium Falcon on the shelves simultaneously- the UCS one, the Playscale one, the microfighter. Same with the x wing (ucs and playscale) hell even the Harry Potter Hogwarts express had two different versions on at the same time (ucs and playscale).
    Personally I think the new smaller R2 looks way batter than the UCS version. Price is nicer too. I just wish they’d have differentiated by say doing another astromech droid like C2-B5 or R2-Q5 (obscure droids I know so probably wouldn’t have made it). Or how about an R5-D4.
    Or thinking about it another way LEGO could have built a whole new line or set idea around astromech droids. Either doing different droids in a helmet series style line (but given the relative obscurity of most droids they probably wouldn’t have gone for it) or go the “build a lightsaber” style way with a set where you could build your own astromech design by swapping out parts and colours. Kinda like what the did with the Ideas Z28 Camaro set which you can customise to suit!

    • @HollyOnFilm
