Has Michael crossed the threshold into Lego? Did Indiana Jones pull him in with the new 2023 Lego sets? Or was it just a specific minifig? Find out! - Komedie
“So why did you change your mind on the legos?”
Micheal: “the gloves…” 😂
Michael: "Lego is a slippery slope, I need to keep an eye on my..."
eBay: Purchases Successful!
Michael: ... dammit...
the fact that the hands of the minifig make it for you specifically gets you my respect as a Lego fan.
Must admit. Saw a Red Dwarf LEGO set someone did and were it to receive mass production, I'd cave. Wonderful production as usual, Michael.
If it's the same one I've seen, it's a nice prototype. I think it was on Lego Ideas, but didn't quite make the cut. Unless this is a new attempt?
@@DoctorInk20 Nope. Same one. Wasn't it amazing?
I’d be all over that!! ❤️❤️
Red Dwarf really is super under-represented for collectors. It still puzzles me why a company like Character Options hasn't made figures.
@@banzaibobA7V Ohhhhh MAN! Yes! They'd have field day with the Rimmer variants. Cat, too. I'd get two of Cat in the zebra trenchcoat to recreate the "Damn my vanity!" bit.
To any "fans" reading this thread, get on "doing the best work" on this property, PLEASE!
Setting strict parameters around a collection is a great way from going way overboard in any collection. I love Indiana Jones for the first three films. I couldn't pass on any Last Crusade sets. I wish they would do a tank from the third movie and his horse along with the vehicle carrying soldiers for that whole chase scene. I am planning on getting him and his dad and the plane. I hope at some point they do release another wave which includes the second film. I loved Short Round as a kid and I want him in the collection of top Indy characters.
Agreed re: parameters for a collection!
@@Luke101 that is really cool news. I so wanted to be like his character in The Goonies. All of his cool gadgets and stuff. I am happy he is finding new roles. He was so great in both movies.
please someone find away to drag him farther down the Lego Indiana jones rabbit hole, I beg of you!
As a huge LEGO Indiana Jones fanatic, I'm happily mindblown that you've made a video about it! Love it.
This is making me want to replay Lego Indiana Jones on my Xbox 360.
Great video Michael! Have fun with your Indiana Jones lego sets!
Awesome vid! Your attention to detail and noticing little things like the belt are are one of the reasons I continue to enjoy your channel.
LEGO HQ-“I told you we would hook him!”Love that you jumped on these sets!
Michael: *Buys a few Indian Jones Lego sets*
Me: "One of us! One of us! One of us!"
Always watchable AND informative.
LEGO Star Wars, Batman, and Indiana Jones were my Kenner lines if you will.
Building the Temple of the Golden Idol right now. The original is one I’ve always wanted.
Lego has naming problems, Boba Fett's ship is one that springs to mind.
That's sadly not just a Lego thing, that's now the entire standard for Slave-1 toys.
I heard that mandate came straight from disney. Plus it was always called slave 1 in every earlier lego set unlike the well of souls
I kinda wish Hasbro made 4 inch scale figures like they did back in 2008. I am curious how those 6 inch scale figures look.
I love your videos, this one for some reason made me laugh, great review, thanks for your hard work Micheal, and here's wishing you a great year in 2023
This is definitely a better version of the lego set than the 1st time around
I'd like to imagine someone at Lego saw your video(s) or was directed to it and thought "yeah.. we can do better"
At 1:48, kind of funny how Michael describes Lego in the same way drugs are described, I thought it was pretty funny
My son had the Last Crusade boat chase set, was a great toy with the exploding boat
I think it's awesome you're doing more Lego stuff.
You’re the first one I thought of when I saw how all the Indys from these sets were directly based on the Indys in the exact scenes they were depicting. Gloves on the Well of Souls Indy, a long tie on the Crusade plane chase Indy, etc.
Welcome to the AFOL Club Michael :) Love your work always and especially when you cover Lego now and then.
I was a part of your 11,000 membership subscription increase. I enjoy hearing your thoughts on toys and the community that comes with it.
Mr. Retro Blasting. The “Retroblasting Productions” special effects is AMAZING! It makes me excited for the new video, and toy collecting! GREAT WORK! 👍🏼🙏👏🏼💪🏼🥋
I am not a lego person myself and don't own any, and the only ones I had were from the late 70s and long gone and very basic legos, but I have to agree that they are doing much better work on Indy than Hasbro has shown in recent years..great video.
I know how you feel about the LEGO rabbit hole. I just finished the Horizon Tall Neck set, the Optimus Prime set, and the Jurassic Park 30th Anniversary sets are coming in June.
I really hope they release that Temple of Doom set
This whole 2023 line is great not only in terms of indy spirit but as a lego theme. You can get all 3 sets for 150 on sale and the design is awesome
I've been a fan of Lego for years and I recently watched the Indiana Jones trilogy and now I'm a huge fan and made a almost completely screen accurate German car with turret from the movie.
By staggering coincidence, I just replayed the _Lego Indy video game_ today.
One detail that bothers me about the new sets is that Lego have gone to all the trouble of making all the Indy minifigs individual, but Henry Jones, Sr. is still wearing the pith helmet he had in 2008.
In the game, he's got the proper grey tweed bucket hat from the film, so I don't know why they couldn't have tooled that for the new line. Otherwise, it unavoidably makes him look like *Dr. Kilroy* from the old _Lego Adventurers_ line - which, incidentally, was inspired by *Indiana Jones.* 😂 Oh, the circles we draw.
Well articulated. Good call on buying 2 sets of the well of souls. Show us the set up when built
lego videos can be turn into a really dangerous drinking game: Take a shot whenever someone says "minifigure".
the LEGO Sets were my first contact with Indiana Jones, and the videogame. The new sets look interesting
Welcome my friend. Youve taken your first step into a larger world. Once you get curious and purchase a Star Wars set... yea its over.
I've been on the lookout for that Well of Souls. You actually did what I plan to do. I really just want a complete Well of Souls display.
Cool new intro!
Great video, I'm also tempted by the Indiana Jones Lego theme. I plan on picking up these sets later this year, and I really appreciate the details you shared comparing the new mini figures to what was released years ago. I hope if they make more sets, we will see at least the same level of love and detail.
Great video - part of me regrets not expanding my collection into Indiana Jones items. With that said I'm really looking forward to Michael and others analysis of Dial of Destiny when it comes out! Moreso than the actual movie 😂
If you do purchase the Race for the Stolen Treasure set. You should try and acquire the motorbike and side car from the Motorcycle Chase set, along with two versions of the German figure of that one came with it. The lot would then stand in for the one we see escorting the Ark, before Indy runs it off the road.
Great video 🎉
Great video! If LEGO ever made a Raiders Indy in the 12 inch buildable technic style, I can only imagine the scrutiny it would receive from you, which would be very entertaining. With an increased scale there would be no excuse for error on the small details.
LOL I just got the lost souls set and definitely thought of you when I saw the gloves.
Nice. In 2008 I had the temple run set. It was great, it tried to add all the features of that scene. Hopefully the upgrade set will be all that it was and more. I hope you have fun building it.
5:05 the band is actually not painted, but the same plastic as the hair! Within the last decade or so lego more and more frequently has made pieces that are dual-molded with two separate colors of plastic. This allows pieces to have greater detail, and of course, unlike paint there's no risk of it being scratched off over time!
Loving the indecisive yet onboard kinda-sorta on the sets you gave. 😆😆😆
We know you collect but it's always nice to see other collectors get into that conundrum it makes you feel that you're not alone!
😆😆😆😆😆😆❤️💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
I personally love the 2008 Well of Souls set more. So much playability and a ton of snakes!
All the Lego snakes you could ever ask for! well, expect for snake people...
One never knows when the "Lego-mania" will strike, but it will strike. Stay strong!
I had the idol ruin set. Also got all 13 crystal skulls. They're spare parts now.
They do sell custom printed Lego minifigure pieces, I use them a lot to boost the accuracy on my stuff.
the Lego sycophants finally get some fresh blood lol. Good luck on your adventure Michael, whether you skirt the rabbit hole or plummet into it head first. Great vid and some amazing detail on some of those figs and sets!
If you combine the original 08 indy trousers with the crusade tie torso, you have even more screen accurate indy. The trouser belt is correct for crusade!
Cool callback to the wayback machine of Mr. Peabody and the Rocky and Bullwinkle show.
"Too bad you don't speak Lego... uh, I mean, Hovitos, Dr. Jones."
"Yeah, but I guarantee you I speak better Indiana Jones than you do, Brick Jockey."
@@retroblasting Sorry Michael, that wasn't meant to be a mean, snarky comment. I was just trying to think of something funny Belloq might say. Sorry about the phrasing of that. I love your content, and tip my fedora to your knowledge of Henry Jones, Jr.
Michael! Happy to see you dive into the Indy sets. I would try and be patient though! I know once you catch the Lego bug it’s easy to wanna get everything, but I would try and wait.
Lego will most likely continue the line next year with more remade and new sets.
Once you walk the lego path forever will it effect your collecting destiny
Brickmania did a Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark truck chase and it sold out it had both accurate truck and car with both the guns and figures
One of us! One of us! One of us!
I might have to get some of the sets. I had the flying wing back in the day.
I’ve been getting Lego sets since 2008, I’m 18 now and you’re definitely right about Lego being a lifestyle. I’ve only ever really collected Star Wars but I’ve gotten a couple sets from other themes ( I only had 1 of the Indiana jones sets) and now I really want to get other sets from other themes but there is just soooo much stuff I want to buy now. From Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and now Indiana Jones makes a comeback, and then I first started watching Retroblasting about a year ago and all the Star Wars follies and I’ve been slowly buying some old vintage Kenner Star Wars stuff( My dad had Kenner as a kid and he thinks it’s really cool to see some of the stuff he didn’t even know existed like the micro collection) One day I’m just gonna need a room in my house to just keep all of my Lego and action figures.
Heh, welcome to the Lego Indy club. I collected the whole line back in the day, and started customizing my own versions of characters who never got actual figs. Was so much fun.
"And take back one kadam to honour the Lego god whose toy this is." ;)
I'm getting the plane chase set. I missed out on the original version and it's easily one of my favorite scenes from one of my favorite movies.
Man, I was hoping you would finally talk about Lego Indy!
now i have to get this because it has a bionicle refrince
I hope you do a video on your moc. Also i've never heard of scene printing. I've only heard of pad printing.
Good Grief! Michael has fallen down a rabbit hole!
I guess you could say “hats off to new Lego Indy”
The temple of doom wasn't "officially" cancelled so there's hope we'll see it this summer!
Harrison Ford came into my restaurant last night. My friend waited on him in a section we share. Never been so jealous of a coworker before.
Cool!
Oh god, they got him!
Welcome to the cult of LEGO, Michael! There’s no way out now! (But that’s a good thing!)
For me it's the classic Castle sets, circa Black Knights. My first castle Lego set was the Black Knight horse and minifigure micro set with weapons. So, when I saw a creator set with the Black Falcons, I had the blessing to pick up two on clearance just as my Wal-Mart was pulling them from the shelves. And, then there was the minifigure collection that had a knight in the old Cheese Castle livery. And, more recently a figure set that not only came with orks/trolls but a Black Falcon lady falconer, with falcon.
My other love is Space in and around the first run of space police. I kinda miss my Futuron sets. Combining those with my uncles vintage Space Legos has an appeal for me.
But, I get the reluctance. I don't quite have the shelf/table space for them. And, my focus is largely on wargaming scale figurines for scifi games (specifically BattleTech). So, I can't really justify filling in with 3.5 or 4 inch action figure lines, even though I have a love for those and GI Joe, either. I get more use out of the gaming figures than anything else. Lego Castle is at least compatible with Role-playing to some degree.
The new Lego Indy looks a bit like you making a puzzled look on his alternate face from Well of Souls
I hope Lego makes that tank from Last Crusade
Inadvertently buying Lego is indeed a slippery slope
I really love these sets. I am a collector of lego and other toy lines such as Gi Joe and Kenner Star Wars and I definitely think there can be a balance between collecting legos and other lines but it does get in the way of getting other things since I am more involved in lego than other toy lines. Just to give you my two cents on that.
I'm wondering 2 things about this line
1. Will lego be allowed to acknowledge crystal skull
2. I wonder if we'll get any temple of doom stuff before they flood the line with dial of destiny sets
“Once you start down the Lego path forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will…” Lego Yoda
Lego is like Plastic Meth if you're not careful you'll end up with a $800 AT-AT walker.
I didn't notice the legs I saw them on the new figure i thought nothing of it until you said something and it's slightly jarring to look at so I might switch them out when I can get my hands on these sets
I gotta say though, if you are getting the first two sets, you might as well get the third Last Crusade set. There will be no more LEGO Indiana Jones sets after this wave. (at least according to a reliable source) You could get a VIP discount (if you have a vip program and enough points) or wait for it to go on sale.
Please do reviews of the sets!
Hey Michael, I don't know if you have seen it, but if you want an incredibly detailed screen accurate lego raiders ark truck, you definitely need to look into brickmanias Saturday matinee set. It is above and beyond the 2008 set
I’d love to see you review the other sets seeing your a huge Indiana jones fan it would be awesome to hear your thoughts verses someone just doing it for the money
Come to the dark side, Michael. We have bricks.
Lego does what Hasbron’t. I know not as catchy as Genesis does what Nintendon’t, but real accurate.
Cool production Michael
Was not a Lego person myself, until my sister dumped her kids 40g tube of Lego on my doorstep.
Now I buy set time to time and enjoy putting them together.
Keep up the awesome video
When i got back into Lego I said I was going to only do Batman sets only and now I collect almost every theme they have except friends and city
I wonder if the reason for why they gave him the leather belt came from old concept art from raiders. If you look up the pictures, Indiana Jones is distinctly wearing 2 leather belt in them. Now, it may not make much sense as to why they would do this as they have the perfect reference material from the movies, but it might just give us the answer for this reason. Idk that's what I think happened. Feel free to discuss
There's a reason I'm a Lego Start Wars fan mate. I'm all in for this Indy stuff, and I missed out on the 2008 stuff (why? I have no idea). Anyway, I love Lego Mini Figs and their attempts at film and TV set pieces... and all the Star Wars ships 😅
my nitpick would be the whip, its always in that curled position when they could have given a bunch of hinge pieces to make the whip , or an alternate whip piece
Ah the draw of the plastic crack is strong with this one. Pick and choose what you like Mike . I have .
The new Indy gloved figure is very good - but I just wish the gloves were the yellow moleskin US GI style that were in the film , they would look MUCH better !
good luck i was only going to collect lego pirate sets then it became lego batman then modular sets then star wars. any theme is a gateway drug into full blown lego addiction.
If you were to get the old temple of doom do it now as it’s going up in price because the new set was “cancelled”
Not that this video wasn’t already fantastic, but any time you include that “son of a b..” clip, I always laugh my @ss off!
Yes. All true about the Lego thing. I keep a toe in the water of the lego pool. Cool stuff but OMG those prices😮. As you have said a few times for the prices these days of new you could by vintage. Was looking forward to a video on the Indiana Jones retro figs. Seemed like that would be right up your alley.
I have my figure collection and a separate Lego room. With figures I hunt for them and display them, but there's not much else to do. Lego is the toy I can actually spend time with. Plus my kids are Lego obsessed, so it's family time. What I'm saying is you can do both.
