If it's any consolation, my wallet also hates me

@@mattmakesthings Our wallets can be internet buddies!

I’m honored you think so, thanks for watching!

@@mattmakesthings No, thank YOU for the amazing content

I agree that Lego sometimes pulls some shenanigans like claiming that Rex was going to be exclusive or including a really desirable minifig behind an expensive paywall of a set. For me that was the case with Darth Maul's Infiltrator. But to me, this R2 is a far better buy than the more expensive version so for anyone who likes this droid but didn't want the bigger model I think this is a great set--especially if you get it on sale or at Costco. I don't care so much about Malak, but for those that do, I feel for you because wow he's expensive on Bricklink.

Thanks so much, I appreciate it! I’m usually the same way and mostly feel like the low views are warranted, so it’s really great to hear you enjoyed this one. Hoping for higher views eventually!

@mattmakesthings something else I thought I should say. Low views isn't a bad thing. Larger creators have gone on to say that they missed how personal it felt to be streaming for just 7 viewers, or uploading for only a few hundred. Shoot for the stars, but never feel lesser just because your views are lesser. You'd miss the forest for trees doing things that way.

Thanks man!

Yeah I think the ship is not bad but I really love the minifigs

@@mattmakesthings FR

Okay so-I think this shoots so meh because the rounds are flat round tiles instead of the thicker round plates that usually come with these shooters. Maybe because it’s intended for younger kids with a refined taste in minifigs?

i love micro fighters and i buy 2 of each micro to collect

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Everyone who loves Minecraft is welcome and cool

Also the text “you are the player” is probably a reference to a line in the end poem

Totally forgot about that poem! I’m not sure why the throwback makes it 18+, but I definitely think you’re right about the connection, and glad they made it like that.

@@mattmakesthings yeah saying 18+ is a bit odd but it makes sense that its a collectors set

25 grams of light roast coffee brewed with 450 grams of water in a Kalita wave, with 17 grams of sugar and some half and half. Who has time to measure half and half.

Well that’s possible, though it could be 13+ or similar.

Can’t trust tiny pieces to a teenager lol

I salute you

I don’t remember being critical of MandR, just feeling like he was inflating the non-level stance and ending up agreeing with him. Qui-Gon’s leg printing is just objectively bad.

Thank you!

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Yeah if I didn’t review them I’d probably leave the stickers off almost every time

I finished this set, it was a bit of a challenge but the end result looks great. The stickers are not a problem for me and look great. I don’t understand the big deal over the stickers unless you have fat fingers.

Thanks I appreciate it!

Thank you!

Thanks!

I did have to use something to really push the short end in, maybe that’s what yours needs? Good luck!

Yeah I’m sure there are exceptions but to me this feels like it’s for the person who doesn’t necessarily collect Lego but likes cool things to display around the house and this might be the one said they buy or are given as a gift.

Making it a Bluetooth speaker would have been awesome

They missed a huge opportunity, I watched till the end, expecting to hear it play. Seriously who would take it this far without taking all the way.

Sorry for the confusion! Just reacting to the photos that were released, but open to calling these react videos something different if it would be more clear.

@@mattmakesthings its ok

I agree! Definitely glad I picked this one up.

I’d love to build it, a little too much $$$ for me!

I feel you

I look forward to your review of the ISD when it releases!

I’m maybe being a little too hard on it. The minifigs are good enough if you don’t have them, especially Saw. And a nice printed piece. I’m getting a little tired of the bad prints on dark colors though!

No box is safe

Thanks for watching! I really wanted Saw, but definitely skippable if you don’t.

I have an allergic reaction when I see minidolls, but…maybe. There have been some great friends sets to come out in the last couple years!

Great to see the love for Lego Space!

@@mattmakesthings same here! My wallet will be suffering though…

I like that idea a lot, maybe sometime when I can afford a permanent overhead camera!

I think it looks amazing as a whole, but yeah I hope there are a few or stickers than it appears right now, that NASA one is especially unfortunate.

I was probably going to get the Artemis rocket instead of the Interceptor, so maybe with that one?

That’s pretty cool! Do you have a most and least favorite?

@@mattmakesthings my favorite would either be the saturn V or the space shuttle and my least favorite is the iss

Unfortunately I think it probably will not. The Saturn rocket didn’t come with minifigs, only a couple tiny astronauts that are smaller than minifig scale. It looks like the moon lander set is still available for now, so that could be a good one to pick up if you want more authentic looking astronauts?

Thanks for watching! The jazz quartet is a cool set, among many. The designers now are so good.

You should try lego friends beach amusement park!

I’m glad you watched, thanks! This is the kind of info I need so I can sound knowledgeable during the review lol

Thanks for watching! I hope this one is worth the price, and the space required.

As long as it’s more fun to build than the Mars rover!

I almost solely buy their NASA sets, their last space shuttle and Hubble set was a blast, and is a beautiful piece. I have the Saturn V set as well and love it. I'm excited for this one to release

That’s fair, $260 is not a small amount of money. It’s a good value in Lego’s lineup, but would I rather have this than Eldorado Fortress? Maybe not? We’ll see when it’s on the table.

If that’s the price that’s a great price

It has 3000+ pieces, they could easily set its price at 350+ dollars.

@@rustyshackleford234 While you are correct, I remember being hit by the ugly-tree, but I've yet to have luck being hit by the money-tree...
