Y’know what’s good? A Lego worker did a mistake but lego didn’t fire them, nor punish them, they installed new lighting to help the worker/s. “A worker’s mistake is a company mistake.” I have been a fan of lego for 8 years and this just shows true dedication to The LEGO Group and LEGO as a toy brand itself.
The one time I did call for a piece that I was missing, they sent me 2 pieces. I also later found the piece I was missing because I had misplaced it, so the set was still perfect and never was missing a piece. That is absolute quality control, assurance, and customer assistance.
Yeah, back in the 90s the boxes used to have these flip lid things to let you see "star pieces" of the set. Unfortunately, sometimes people would steal the minifigs, so I got a set like that once as a gift (gift giver didn't notice), and my mother called them and they sent the figures and also some extra stuff, I was so happy.
I will never understand why people are still buying Lego today. The quality both of stones and sets diminished massively over the last few years and yet the price of Lego went up by way way way to much. Rarely you get a decent set thats priced kinda fairly in the Lego world... most of the time its still overpriced tho.
@@nickywiggles4596 Have you read my comment? As i already said there are a few decent sets and i know of that set and think its very good and fairly priced compared to all the other lego sets. Its certainly a rarity, but then again its also a 300€ set which is designed for 18 years plus.
Maybe you’re just nostalgic because the quality of set design has increased 10x in the last 20 years. Minifigure molds and prints even more so. Lego has also pretty much stayed the same price adjusted for inflation, so again idk what your talking about.
The tolerances required to make these tiny plastic pieces fit together by friction is just mind blowing... To be able to make millions every day to these tolerances.. makes them engineering masterpieces.
If you think that’s crazy medical molds require crazy tolerances, my shop is building blocks that require .0001 of an inch so .00005 of an inch per side
the logistics have always amazed me, thousands of sets, tens of thousands of pieces in different colors and materials. all packed into different bags and it has to be PERFECT, every time.
I'm almost 18 and nothing makes me feel like my life is easier than when I get a lego kit for Christmas. I'm sad that once I turn 99 I can no longer play with them. :c Update: I’m 21, still have the same sentiments about legos. 😂
I've worked with mold injection machines very similar to those in the medical field. I was the one who did preventable maintenance and repairs on them and I can say that some of these molds can be tricky and very sensitive depending on what parts you're taking apart. Props to the workers over there at Lego or whatever company that works for them.
Wow... really? What was it like? To be surrounded by these amazing machines... Mind if I ask what company? I'm sure it had its own ups and downs. Going by what you say I think it requires a lot of precision. Thx for everything again.. 😇
I'm here now, giving my thanks to Lego. 16 years ago you started making my childhood. I loved every second of it. Now I'm 22 and bought 2 of the new star wars sets to add to my collection. Thank you Lego. You made my childhood.
My uncle was living in Germany. He returned to Vietnam, his hometown, to visit our big family. He gave his nieces a set of Lego. I was among those 5 kids who could play it, but I could never own it. It was kept in the house of my oldest cousin. Everytime I wanted to play with it, I had to ask my father to come to her house which was quite far from my house. I was around 5 or 6 yrs old at that time. After years, a lot of bricks from that set were missing. When I was 26 years old, I got job and credit card. The first thing I ordered from an international store was a set of Lego. I bought that set from Lego official website and finally I could own it. It is still completely in good conditions in my closet and no any part missing. It is my fortune. I was trying to buy it because I have been always missing the beautiful small bricks I got when I was a child. Now I can play it as much as I want to. I think Lego is the most useful invention for kids. It grows my childhood dream of being an Architect as well.
I didn't realize it the world greatest building toys required such absurd amounts science and engineering to craft. This is A lot of time and effort put into something that nearly everyone loves, that goes to show they care :) or they really like their jobs or both. I'm glad that there are people out there who work hard and know that they are bringing joy to someone in the world one brick at a time. :D
Lego is one of the best precision molders in the world. They've advanced injection molding processes and materials more than almost any other company. They have that much cloud in industry.
You're surprised that took the time to manufacture things as effectively and as quickly as possible? Any production task is extremely complex if you are to continue to optimise it.
Capitalism ho! And the best part is today with the internet it couldn't be easier and cheaper to do it, so more people can expedite their growth. One of my buddies used to do art sculpting and he made a phone accessory which is now in almost every store. He used to make it by hand, I helped him setup his factory and now he can pretty much fill all his orders while he sits at his desk coming up with new designs. The only real employees he needs are for packaging, customer service, marketing, and lawyers (because once you make money, everyone starts trying to come up with excuses so they can steal it from you, even your "friends").

Why wait? Buy them for yourself and have fun. If you get cursed enough to have kids, then you can either give them yours or you can buy them their own.
I’ve been buying and building with Lego for 8 years now and I have never seen a missing part which I thought was incredible. Now that I’ve seen the machines, this truly is amazing! Well done lego.
My son is finally old enough to start playing with “little legos” as he calls them. I’m excited to give him my old sets from my childhood. It’s amazing that forty year old sets and brand new sets are completely compatible. This is a true testament to the quality of LEGO.

I just google the instructions, look for the correct pieces in the bucket that go with the old sets, put them into small bags and give them to my kids with the instructions :) Some of the pieces need a bit of cleaning, but that's all - they stay with us forever!

I prefer a Willy Wonka competition where someone could be the new owner ;) Find one of 5 golden bricks in a set, come on a tour of the factory, and if you can refrain yourself from playing with new sets, you might become the director!
I'm a noob AFOL and have been fascinated about how LEGO bricks were made. I'm so glad that the plastic waste from the moulds is recycled. I have learned so much in such a short time. Thank you so much!
i really appreciate those regular workers who maintain the molds. it's the most mundane work, but it's so critical to all of our enjoyment bless you, critical citizens :')
I have been buying sets ever since late 2011 and like other people say, “no missing parts or misprinted/Miscolored parts”. Incredible quality for a toy that I love even thought I’m 15.
This company is unique in the world in term of process and quality. There is no other company producing plastic parts at this level of quality. Most of plastic parts around us are assembled one way with few others. In a Lego set you have hundredth to thousands of parts in multiple colors that you can assemble in millions of combinations: it ALWAYS works. Amazing!!!
You fine people, are some of the most spectacular people in existence. No matter if your job isn't as hype as others Anyone who works with Lego is a hero in my eyes
Legos were always a favorite toy of mine. When I constructed a retaining wall on the drainage ditch when our street was worked on in 2017 I laid the concrete blocks just like you would Legos.
I've got an unassembled Saturn V, at my feet. This one is #2. The first one is assembled. I'm old enough to have seen Saturn Vs launched in the late '60's GREAT video, LEGO. steve
I really, really love this toy. If there's one thing I can keep doing all day it's playing with this toy. It helps me to focus, keeps me happy, and distracts me from whatever problems I have everyday.
I just want to know how, no matter what you do, a lego is always in your walking path in the middle of the night when it's dark and you're half asleep. I mean, it's just incredible.
Now I understand why Lego sets cost as much as the do, it's amazing how much science, math, and big brains got into the little plastic toys that we loved throughout our childhood and that our parents' bare feet hated.
Pretty amazing to see all the industrial machinery, processes, and just how big the factories are to make Lego. Still and will probably always will be my favourite toy. The colorful vast assortment of bricks and infinite creation possibilities. It keeps me in the joy of feeling like a kid.
I want to say thank you for this wonderful and creative construction set, every time my mother bought me a small set, which for me was the best toy after my soft toys, thank you very much again for a kind and happy childhood, your designer still gives me the same feelings as in childhood. 👍💙
As someone who works in a very small plastic molding facility, this makes me so happy. Wouldn't it be something to work for Lego in one of their facilities one of these days...
Once complaomed about a missing piece on a big Lego Chima set, they said it would arrive in a few months but it never did. This happened around 9-10 years ago.
I always got really excited when I'd get a brick in a set that was deformed due to the mold not filling all the way. I had so many Legos over the years, and I only ever found like 3 or 4 deformed bricks. I kept them in a specific spot on my shelf, the super rare special bricks. 😂
Fascinating how much automation is going on during production. I wander how many maintenance workers are required for the molding and storage process. Looks very efficient.
one time I got a set with a large piece missing. Sent it back to the lego store and they were really surprised XD. Don't know how rare of a chance that is.
maybe they were surprised that you sent it back? they have a whole thing on their website where you can order missing parts which would have been better than returning the whole thibg
I've only seen 1 factory error for Lego in my entire life. It was in a set based on Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones. A spaceship had 2 right wing pieces instead of 1 left and 1 right. The fact that I've been playing with Lego for as long as I can remember and that is the only blunder really goes to show the quality control!
Hello, Lego Group. I'm Daniel. I've been a Lego fan all of my life. On my channel I've got lots of Lego vids from stuff I've made out of Lego to 4 Lego stop motion videos. Congratulations on Lego's success. I love to see Lego playsets of Game of Thrones as I am a fan of the series and I also would love to see Lego playsets and minifihures of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and classic Space Police mini-figures and playsets from 1992 get re-released. Thank you for bringing joy to generations of children and allowing them to be creative and use their imaginations.
I can definitely see some difference in quality in new set pieces vs the old ones, and I believe it has a lot to do with styles of pieces being introduced, especially in technic. I definitely get the fact why the prices went up however the company should understand that by making Lego sets pricier they’re opening the doors for competition and it’s what we see today. I’m more of a technic car builder, and companies like ca.da, mouldking, etc. are making pieces damn near identical, taking builder’s mocs and making a complex 1:8 car set that is 200 dollars in comparison to legos 499 dollar sets.
I am 67 years old and have been building Lego kits since i was 6 years old I don't want to EVER stop way too much fun!! NEVER a problem or malformed part or anything missing from a kit
In lego wolrd: Lego son: how we are made? Lego dad: its hard Lego son: ok just tell me Lego dad: **shows this video** Lego son: so im a plastic? Lego dad: yep Lego son: oh Lego dad: what u want more Lego son: **is destroyed like all death in all lego games**
There's a saying amongst AFOLs: "LEGO is never wrong". We mean that if you can't find a piece, 99% of the time you're just not looking in the right place. Luckily, LEGO has you covered for the 1%: the Replacement Bricks part of their site. Just punch in the set number, find the piece you're missing, enter the quantity, and complete the order. Unless the order doesn't pass there average sniff check, LEGO will send you the pieces for free. Otherwise they'll send you an email for clarification, which can benefit them as much as you. If a set was missing the small bag with 1x1 round plates and whatnot they want to know so they can make sure that machine is maintained or assembly line supervised.
Man, thinking about how many different sets they have with so many different pieces and so many decals I imagine they must have a lot of machines. How big of an area would you need to gather all the pieces for, say, the big Millennium Falcon set?
Leander Seiler Quality of plastic, accuracy of production (molds are very expensive), designing product lines, logistics to gather different parts from different factories, distribution and price premium for buying from the biggest toy manufacturer in the world. +Profit marginal to keep business going and growing. If you research other brick manufacturers products, you find their products are always lower quality than LEGO. Even if competition could charge same as LEGO, it would take over 10 years to be on same level in quality and still have limited product category. For LEGO Group, it does not make sense to sell much cheaper than now.
They are kinda expensive, but at the same time good value. They're made to a very high quality and it's also a toy that can be quite literally anything. A toy car is just a toy car, a Lego set can be anything from a toilet to a space cruiser. I have Lego bricks that are more than 20 years old and have probably been used thousands of times and they still fit snugly together, I'd call that good quality.
Production quality. Remember, bricks from a decade ago will fit with bricks from yesterday and bricks from 40 years ago. That is serious commitment to quality. Also, given the diversity in the colour range today over previously, the production has to run 24/7 and that requires a lot of electricity for the machinery and robots to carry out that task.
Mika Korhonen 1. General speaking, ABS plastic are roughly 1000usd per ton atm, considering a box of lego weights less than 2kg, the material won’t cost much. 2.mold price is based on the size and complexity of the brick, regulation bricks have simply geometry shape, so the molds are probably not as expensive as you think.

You’d have 125 million pieces
If u guess where i live, then u know IT (hint : im litteraly connected to sweden)
I prefer a Willy Wonka competition where someone could be the new owner ;)
Find one of 5 golden bricks in a set, come on a tour of the factory, and if you can refrain yourself from playing with new sets, you might become the director!

jangbricks?

John Paul Zimmerman no it's j a n g b r i c k s!
Jangbricks is my favourite
I'm a noob AFOL and have been fascinated about how LEGO bricks were made. I'm so glad that the plastic waste from the moulds is recycled. I have learned so much in such a short time. Thank you so much!
i really appreciate those regular workers who maintain the molds. it's the most mundane work, but it's so critical to all of our enjoyment
bless you, critical citizens :')
I have been buying sets ever since late 2011 and like other people say, “no missing parts or misprinted/Miscolored parts”. Incredible quality for a toy that I love even thought I’m 15.
This company is unique in the world in term of process and quality. There is no other company producing plastic parts at this level of quality. Most of plastic parts around us are assembled one way with few others. In a Lego set you have hundredth to thousands of parts in multiple colors that you can assemble in millions of combinations: it ALWAYS works. Amazing!!!

It's so interesting to see how Lego really creates the bricks that we've all known and loved for years. This is insane!
Just a thought
The most popular toy of all time and I've never once seen an advert on TV for Lego
The Lego Movie was one of the longest ads I've ever seen.
@@reynardnel6502 I actaully liked the lego movie.
Lego ads : build the ??? , HEY.
Rip lego ads
2000+ to 2016
Tf you mean? All the Lego City ads? The entire "A man has fallen into the river in Lego City" meme?
@@reynardnel6502 its a good ad tho, one of the best animated movies of the 2010s
You fine people, are some of the most spectacular people in existence. No matter if your job isn't as hype as others
Anyone who works with Lego is a hero in my eyes
When the box says 5-14 years but you eat it in 2 minutes
@Happi Doggo ahaha thats right
Yum
3 year olds be like
MY FEET HURT JUST LOOKING AT THIS
invent this SAME XD
Foot: NANI?!
Me too
Legos were always a favorite toy of mine. When I constructed a retaining wall on the drainage ditch when our street was worked on in 2017 I laid the concrete blocks just like you would Legos.
What flavor is the tooth paste. Forgot I made this a year ago thanks so much
*cRuNcHy*
Wtf
don't eat molten plastic
I imagine you building a LEGO™ toothbrush and using it...
then puking out blood...

Lego is a part of my childhood I will NEVER give up. Legos for life!
I've got an unassembled Saturn V, at my feet.
This one is #2. The first one is assembled.
I'm old enough to have seen Saturn Vs launched
in the late '60's
GREAT video, LEGO.
steve
Nice!
I saw the launch of the Discovery space shuttle back in 2011. I HAD to buy the set for this reason haha!
I really, really love this toy. If there's one thing I can keep doing all day it's playing with this toy. It helps me to focus, keeps me happy, and distracts me from whatever problems I have everyday.
I just want to know how, no matter what you do, a lego is always in your walking path in the middle of the night when it's dark and you're half asleep. I mean, it's just incredible.
Ouch. I am sure stepping on a lego hurts like hell enough to wake you up.
I work in plastic material forming industry and I can’t stop admiring how cosmically high is the level of technology and organization of this faktory
Now I understand why Lego sets cost as much as the do, it's amazing how much science, math, and big brains got into the little plastic toys that we loved throughout our childhood and that our parents' bare feet hated.
They still get super greedy with lego star wars
@@dathomirpizzagirl9686 pretty sure the film studio is the reason.
@@sadiporter2966 no but youre free to think that
Pretty amazing to see all the industrial machinery, processes, and just how big the factories are to make Lego. Still and will probably always will be my favourite toy. The colorful vast assortment of bricks and infinite creation possibilities. It keeps me in the joy of feeling like a kid.
I want to say thank you for this wonderful and creative construction set, every time my mother bought me a small set, which for me was the best toy after my soft toys, thank you very much again for a kind and happy childhood, your designer still gives me the same feelings as in childhood. 👍💙
So this is why I have to sell one of my kidneys to get a LEGO set. It’s worth it.
Nah. Other producers sell better sets cheaper. You have to sell you kidneys because LEGO knows they can get away with it

Finally I know, how the best toy is made😄
I love videos where you can get an insight into how a lego brick is made ... i love Lego❤💯
Awesome! Id love to see more of the factory and how they sort parts for each set. I love Lego even at 51!
i'm glad that modelling a lego brick is possible. nice history video!
As someone who works in a very small plastic molding facility, this makes me so happy. Wouldn't it be something to work for Lego in one of their facilities one of these days...
I'd imagine they will have replaced every human worker by then.. They even have robots replacing the boxes lol.
@@noire1001 lego still need people to test tolerances, clean and maintain molds and design sets
Building sets is so satisfying. Even hours into building a larger set I’m still enjoying it and time seems to fly by.
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen
I use the legos to make my videos too
I want to press thumbs up about 50 million times! I so love Legos!
Bennet Fox “Legos” what is that?
Anyone else love the sound of fresh bricks hitting the bin? 😮😮😎😎
eh?
Once complaomed about a missing piece on a big Lego Chima set, they said it would arrive in a few months but it never did. This happened around 9-10 years ago.
That's a decent and professional engineering!
I always got really excited when I'd get a brick in a set that was deformed due to the mold not filling all the way. I had so many Legos over the years, and I only ever found like 3 or 4 deformed bricks. I kept them in a specific spot on my shelf, the super rare special bricks. 😂
It’s crazy cause these toys shaped my life…
Now I want to play with it.
lol
Subscribe to me and I will sub to yoy
Herobrine CRAFT wtf
Martin Rocket also be safe when you step on it
Fascinating how much automation is going on during production.
I wander how many maintenance workers are required for the molding and storage process.
Looks very efficient.
What I'd do to work for Lego man. Designing sets is a dream for me and getting to play with Lego daily as a job would be a joy.
one time I got a set with a large piece missing. Sent it back to the lego store and they were really surprised XD. Don't know how rare of a chance that is.
maybe they were surprised that you sent it back? they have a whole thing on their website where you can order missing parts which would have been better than returning the whole thibg
@@Spoonable idk, was probably easier than waiting for the shipment to arrive
@@circumplex9552 bro it only takes like a week for the piece to arrive
@@BroDgamer1 I aint waiting a week it was a small set
@@BroDgamer1 Not at the moment. Took months for a part from my Lego Lamborghini set to arrive due to covid :(.
I wish they still made the 2012 Ninjago spinners.
I still have one! I think
They do at least the crowns of the 2012 spinners today and thats something ^^
Irsyad Aman me too TRIPLETS!!!
I have a couple
I've only seen 1 factory error for Lego in my entire life. It was in a set based on Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones. A spaceship had 2 right wing pieces instead of 1 left and 1 right. The fact that I've been playing with Lego for as long as I can remember and that is the only blunder really goes to show the quality control!

Box : noooooooooo you re kill me
Plastic pack : ouch
Bricks and Figure : finally we can be complete soon

Makes me wonder how they packed the Chiron

Hello, Lego Group. I'm Daniel. I've been a Lego fan all of my life. On my channel I've got lots of Lego vids from stuff I've made out of Lego to 4 Lego stop motion videos. Congratulations on Lego's success. I love to see Lego playsets of Game of Thrones as I am a fan of the series and I also would love to see Lego playsets and minifihures of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and classic Space Police mini-figures and playsets from 1992 get re-released. Thank you for bringing joy to generations of children and allowing them to be creative and use their imaginations.

I can definitely see some difference in quality in new set pieces vs the old ones, and I believe it has a lot to do with styles of pieces being introduced, especially in technic. I definitely get the fact why the prices went up however the company should understand that by making Lego sets pricier they’re opening the doors for competition and it’s what we see today. I’m more of a technic car builder, and companies like ca.da, mouldking, etc. are making pieces damn near identical, taking builder’s mocs and making a complex 1:8 car set that is 200 dollars in comparison to legos 499 dollar sets.
Wait, that’s the voice of the guy in the background of Lego ads!
So cool, can wait to make my own legos.
You mean Lego bricks
Were you supposed to say can’t
How can you wait?
The Lego System Not Lego bricks... LEGO bricks
You can 3d print lego bricks!
Lego misprints are so rare they are worth more than normal minifigures, lego has insane quality control

There must be an amazing number of counting machines, considering the variety of lego sets on market.
I am 67 years old and have been building Lego kits since i was 6 years old I don't want to EVER stop way too much fun!! NEVER a problem or malformed part or anything missing from a kit
can i work at the lego factory i always wanted to work there pls😩
Najmil GamingAndOthers new you don’t factories are very boring and repetitive
Coleman Trebor but imagine the kids that’ll play with them. Much more fun than packaging food in a can
No you don't want to but maybe you want to work at Lego land
You'd get paid close to minimum wage.
Imagine working here and getting paid in LEGO
I don’t know if I’d be mad or overjoyed
1 word: impressive.
A man has fallen into the Lego river
HEY!
In lego wolrd:
Lego son: how we are made?
Lego dad: its hard
Lego son: ok just tell me
Lego dad: **shows this video**
Lego son: so im a plastic?
Lego dad: yep
Lego son: oh
Lego dad: what u want more
Lego son: **is destroyed like all death in all lego games**
4:25 "Jesse we need to make Lego bricks Jesse"
that amazing. I can't believe how automated it is! There must be mistakes every once and a while right?
There's a saying amongst AFOLs: "LEGO is never wrong". We mean that if you can't find a piece, 99% of the time you're just not looking in the right place. Luckily, LEGO has you covered for the 1%: the Replacement Bricks part of their site. Just punch in the set number, find the piece you're missing, enter the quantity, and complete the order. Unless the order doesn't pass there average sniff check, LEGO will send you the pieces for free. Otherwise they'll send you an email for clarification, which can benefit them as much as you. If a set was missing the small bag with 1x1 round plates and whatnot they want to know so they can make sure that machine is maintained or assembly line supervised.
Dan Riehl the fuck is an afol
AFOL = Adult Fan Of Lego
I dunno, I've never had a missing lego piece in any set I've purchased, and I've only heard of error printings to be very rare
Man, thinking about how many different sets they have with so many different pieces and so many decals I imagine they must have a lot of machines. How big of an area would you need to gather all the pieces for, say, the big Millennium Falcon set?
The logistics of the Lego Group is insane.
5:48 Reminds me of the end of Harry Potter 5
haha
And why are they so expensive...
Leander Seiler Quality of plastic, accuracy of production (molds are very expensive), designing product lines, logistics to gather different parts from different factories, distribution and price premium for buying from the biggest toy manufacturer in the world. +Profit marginal to keep business going and growing. If you research other brick manufacturers products, you find their products are always lower quality than LEGO. Even if competition could charge same as LEGO, it would take over 10 years to be on same level in quality and still have limited product category. For LEGO Group, it does not make sense to sell much cheaper than now.
They are kinda expensive, but at the same time good value. They're made to a very high quality and it's also a toy that can be quite literally anything. A toy car is just a toy car, a Lego set can be anything from a toilet to a space cruiser.
I have Lego bricks that are more than 20 years old and have probably been used thousands of times and they still fit snugly together, I'd call that good quality.
Production quality. Remember, bricks from a decade ago will fit with bricks from yesterday and bricks from 40 years ago. That is serious commitment to quality.
Also, given the diversity in the colour range today over previously, the production has to run 24/7 and that requires a lot of electricity for the machinery and robots to carry out that task.
Mika Korhonen 1. General speaking, ABS plastic are roughly 1000usd per ton atm, considering a box of lego weights less than 2kg, the material won’t cost much. 2.mold price is based on the size and complexity of the brick, regulation bricks have simply geometry shape, so the molds are probably not as expensive as you think.
you pay 4 $ for the set and 16 for the name brand lego.
