Hey man thanks for joining and getting our input on the lego mario discord, it was a pleasure having you there. Even if our segment didn't make it in the video, i think i, and the rest of the people there, are glad to have a part in this video's making, even if we didn't make it in. Great video!
I think he may have forgotten that part of the bad design is for the electronics. Also, he can get Lego to sell this, but he needs to upload it to their website and have it get voted on.
what sucks is showing up in the store with a fake set, asking customers which one to get, then probably leaving them to try to find the set you asked them about, only for them to not be able to find it.
I remember getting a small lego technik mariokart set that had mario, his cart, luigi and his cart and it was pretty much the exact design you chose for them so big up on doing things right
Speaking as someone who grew up with Wii era Mario, classic Mario always fascinated me. Getting to progressively play it all felt so rewarding. It helps that my first game actually was Mario 1 on some 118 in 1 plug n play thing
Two more ideas for why the official Mario line sells well: 1) Resignation. It's just what's available. "Better than nothing" logic. 2) Parts. It's not uncommon for sets to be bought just to get access to certain parts.
Long time LEGO fan, slightly less but still pretty long time Blender user, and more recently custom LEGO minifigure designer. I've got some thoughts on this. While I think that overall this is pretty damn good, there are some areas that could be fixed up. Mario - While not bad for a minifigure Mario, there's still a bit off about him. The main thing I notice is the torso print. The print isn't necessarily bad, just VERY rough. The sharp angles on the print just aren't very LEGO, especially the small triangle below the neck. The buttons are alright, but could probably use an outline, maybe in orange. They also look just a bit too close to the straps which themselves could afford to be a bit wider. The top red areas on the front print also cut off at a weird 45 degree angle, while LEGO's figures are smooth and rounded in the corners. The red shirt parts on the front also don't extend to the edge properly, instead tapering in weirdly as it goes down. The blue outline around it also for some reason comes to a rounded point instead of cutting off like it should. The legs are the second thing that really stand out to me. While dual molded legs are a good choice, Mario is a portly fellow, and would more likely use Mid Legs, though I don't believe those have been given the dual molded treatment yet, so it's a toss up either way. The face is something else though. I think that the light blue shine should be removed, the white shine should be bigger, and MAYBE make it more elliptical than circular. The eyes should also have selective black outlines to them, similar to what you'd see on the Looney Tunes CMF figures. It's also odd to me that his sideburns are modeled and not his mustache since the head would already have brown molded into it from the hair, but that's less important overall I feel. The Set - I don't really have any major complaints with the overall design of this one. The ONLY big thing I'd say is that the UI elements would likely be on the same color plates as the sky and not transparent clear, since transparent clear plates are a lot less common, and it would help more with legibility. As far as the accessories go, LEGO already HAS an existing mushroom cap piece from a recent CMF, so there's no real reason for them to mold a new one for Mario, especially since your version is proportionally awkward with the minifigure head, and LEGO would already be using a HUGE chunk of their parts budget for the newly molded Mario head and all of the unique prints. The Goomba is almost there, just needed to dual mold it so the stem? is light nougat instead of reddish brown. it looks more... phallic when it's the same color. The coins are another issue too. Again, a LOT of the parts budget is already being used up here, and the custom coin mold just isn't that reusable for LEGO to justify it existing. They'd more than likely just reuse the existing coin print from the NES set, especially since that could nicely fit into the hand of a minifigure. The Box - Mostly unproblematic for me. The main thing is the top. I feel like it's just WAY too cluttered up there. Either remove the additional image of all of the accessories laid out, or change it to be Mario, a Goomba, and a Mushroom, just to keep things clean. Gotta say though, love the small touch with the set number that literally nobody else but me would be stupid enough to look up. Overall, this wasn't terrible, just a bit off in some places. I definetly think you're getting there though, and next time I'm hoping to see something that really knocks it out of the park.
If I had to give a theory based off observations, I would say Nintendo asked them to put interactive elements in to appeal to kids more honestly, given how things were with the Mario Movie and how hands on they were with that.
Your version is what us Lego fans are really craving❤❤❤✨ It's gotten so bad that we have used Pinocchios face with a cap to create a makeshift Mario. Some parents are buying the current terrible terrible Mario sets to their small kids, because there are no alternatives. Most of them end up trying to sell them online later, because the kids don't really like them once they get them. I have seen them in stores which are struggling to give them away on ridiculous offers at this point! 😮
The kids want yours because it has a mini-figure 😂 tbh I always got sets that had more mini-figures and I don't think I'd ever buy one that didn't have any
I’m younger and I would choose the Nostalgia set no matter what. I’m not a kid but I’m also not old enough to have ever played older Mario. And I honestly just think that your version is better and I would buy it.
9:19 cuz it's iconic and people below the age of 52 know about the original mario game. plus the design is more familiar to actual lego and it's also smaller so it's easier to build.
Fun fact, upper is not the only one who has those little tab. Closers chrome has had it for a while actually but I would use opera because it’s just got more customizability
There are tons of people that want at least the minifigures. (The whole thing was awesome tho!) You actually should at least sell the minifigures. I have been wanting solid Sonic characters for a while now with solid prints. The official ones don't disappoint, but I was hoping for more characters in the same style. You should totally build an Iblis build and include Silver and Blaze as minifigs! Nice work!

Mario looks really creepy like he is waiting for for downfall
im convinced you're just using this channel as a resume for your lego job application
I mean at this point they should just hire him. His sets are better than their own😭😭

So much Lego is going on here

Hey Mario looks human enough that you should’ve use the normal mini fig head
Oops accidentally clicked this comment and replied ignore me
that lego mario set looked really like a official lego product
As a rebuilder: Your diorama fits my Lego style a bit more, as it's not 99% massive parts

They don’t allow custom molds on Lego Ideas and Mario is probably one of the blacklisted brands on there since they’ve already made sets for it
Im pretty sure he knows that but not everyone wants sets for the 10 minuts they will Play with them before going on their phone again
@Manik034 well they do and they don't.
@@Manik034they don’t allow custom molds… yet. Wait until they see this video, there is always a way

Lego board meeting:
“What if we made it like Minecraft?”

“You’re a genius!”
Meanwhile Lego Minecraft looks like all other Lego sets as you'd expect from Mario
The Skylanders at 6:27 made my day
Mario should have been a skylander.

Bro I looked and he got the green bottoms and their all intact, he’s a real one
Same here brooooo I went straight to the coments like
Lego needs to hire u so we can get better sets again
Amazing set… seriously. Well executed. 👏🏻
Even the man himself Tiago liked it very much to full score, i genuinely wasn’t expecting that! 🎉
No joke man this is one of the best Mario minifig concepts I have ever seen, you should totally try and 3d print the head and make him real
Skylanders is fucking amazing and I’m happy to see someone who had skylanders in their childhood too

YOOOOO SKYLANDERS glad to see I'm not the only one that kept them.
I sold all mine man

what sucks is showing up in the store with a fake set, asking customers which one to get, then probably leaving them to try to find the set you asked them about, only for them to not be able to find it.
But I think after they answer, he said that was his creation
Someone probably asked did he take the set and he explained
Did you watch 2 seconds further in the vid?
I loved the customer comment, "And it has people!" That was so sweet!!! ❤
5:26 I love your custom LEGO Mario Minifigure set that you made, and it would look good as a future D2C set aside from course building. 👍
Sick work, Daniel! I genuinely want that set now, man
Please more Lego Videos
Just too entertaining fr
I absolutely adore they way Lego Mario works. I think its such a Nintendo move to take the idea of a simple lego set and gamifying it.
2:16 Bro they made it Lego, heard you and made it playable!
I remember getting a small lego technik mariokart set that had mario, his cart, luigi and his cart and it was pretty much the exact design you chose for them so big up on doing things right
This is so epik, u actually saved this creepy mario
Speaking as someone who grew up with Wii era Mario, classic Mario always fascinated me. Getting to progressively play it all felt so rewarding.
It helps that my first game actually was Mario 1 on some 118 in 1 plug n play thing
“And it has people!” THAT WAS SO WHOLESOME
1. The set is awesome. And I loved the idea of going to ordinary passers-by to rate it

What a great video, I definitely watched it all.
I'd buy your lego mario set... WE NEED IT!

wtf is that pfp
tbh the legs on your version of Mario should probably be those half size legs that are poseable
My theory is that the younger kids like the normal looking guys that work with normal minifigures
You know it’s a good decade when Daniel uploads
Really accurate
But I personally think it would be a normal minifig head with a molded nose, similarly to Pinocchio
If I were to make this, I’d make the mustache moulded and not printed to be even more faithful in the mould
Can't wait for Lego to hire this man.
Daniel gave us what Lego never tried. Thank you.

AMAZING VIDEO! exactly what Nintendo and Lego should release!
I love this, best custom set that you must convince the Lego company on making
I wish this guy would upload more, these videos are amazing.
yk it’s a good day when daniel kraft uploads
DANIEL KRAFFT PLAYED SKYLANDERS AS A KID LETS GOOOOOOOO
it would be so amazing if you made a video about them
That remake of Mario was dfire, incluso paso como si fuera verdadero en la tienda lego 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
6:25 SKYLANDEEEERS YEEEEEEEEEEEES
I guarantee Nintendo was beyond most of the uh questionable decisions made with Lego Mario
For those of you wondering what the song is at 0:30, it's called 'Box 15' from Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc
I was very excited to see this video after seeing you appear in the server. Very cool video!
Dude you absolutely nailed that minifigure design! I think a classic Angry Birds set might be super cool tho!
No pressure obviously btw :]

Still frustrated that they never made proper LEGO Mario sets. Even a Mario minifigure series. It would sell so well!

So youre saying...youll make Lego a Playbutton?
You have outdone yourself again daniel but i miss the longer videos with more jokes :D
