    Wow. This video was a masterpiece. I thought this was going to just be another fun video from my favorite lego youtuber, but it really made me think. I remember how ecstatic I used to get for each and every lego set I bought, and even though I still love lego, it's just not as exciting. It goes to show how as we become obsessed with collecting everything that we lose sight of what makes lego great in the first place. I miss when buying a twenty-dollar lego set was the best feeling in the world. Genuinely, thank you generic stud for reminding me to be greatful for what I have.

      As a child I was always told I had too many toys. I always declined that I had enough and would get so excited even for a 10 dollar set. I always loved it and appreciated it because it was such a great feeling. Now though,I truly realize I had so much as a child. And I didn't need much more. I had everything I could want. I had all I could ask my parents for. I am currently just, in tears.

    @brickloverbrad Před rokem +20

    The video really took a different turn there at the end... really left me thinking. Totally agree with you, buying & building so many more LEGO sets now as an AFOL really has taken the novelty away that I used to get as a kid. The sets aren't any less special, but now I can spend a few hundred a month on sets when before I had to wait for special occasions or holidays..
    What a masterpiece 👏 Great work!

    Dude, I didn’t expect this. This was actually really touching, as I, like you, am in this phase of collecting old sets I’d always wanted. But you really hit the nail on the head in the end about why LEGO meant so much back then. The fact that why it doesn’t feel like it used to isn’t just bc of the company’s integrity, but rather us as more mature buyers, really hit home.
    Amazing editing, funny as usual, but also really heartfelt. Thank you for that!

    This video reminds me of all the Lego sets from the past I've always wanted or have bought second hand. I feel bad that I didn't get into Lego properly until age 9. I can relate to that nostalgic feeling.

    This is a reminder of the fleeting nature of childhood passion. It's like we're witnessing the gradual distancing of oneself from a shiny object losing its luster and the inevitable consequence of growing up. Great video, @Generic Stud. Looking forward to what the future holds for you next!

  • @realbiggestlegofanconnor7007

    I actually had a weird Lego dream like years and years ago and it was the ultimate edition of the fire vs ice Chima set which had loads of sets in 1 box which I believe only 2 were made for the final magazine’s competition and the dream was basically about me ordering 1 out of the 2 quantity and then saying “this will make up for the Chima sets I missed” and then building it but then was disappointed when I thought it really happened when it was just a dream

  • @mandalorian8906
    @mandalorian8906 Před rokem +1

    I think this made us all appreciate lego so much more than we have before. Honestly, it kind of made me sad, realizing that we don't have time to appreciate sets, because were so busy collecting. Were not making the most out of what we have. You know it's a good video when it makes you think.

    Wow, didn't expect the video to go that way. But yes, I recognise this. As a kid, when you have a new set, you spend so much time playing with it. And of course you always wanted the next one, but you just spend soooo much more time with your new stuff... And your old stuff as well!!! I remember just having one ninjago figure (Zane ZX from set 9440) and it was the coolest figure I had. Every time I played with my Lego, he was the big hero. Now he's just one of all of those figures...
