What do you think of the LEGO 75251 Darth Vader’s Castle?
Buy it on Amazon: amzn.to/2DNzjtZ
Apparently I said this "wasn't in the movies". I definitely meant it wasn't based off the movies since it was in Rogue One and I mention Director Krennic as what could've been a nice additional minigure. Oops!
Its based on the comics as well
The "meeting area" references the platform where Vader & Krennic met in Rogue One!
@@zachivan7557 yes! Presently the Vader comic issues 21-22 are about how this castle was designed. How Sidius gives Vader Momin's helmet. Enough said . No spoilers 😏 Really awesome story.
@@jeangael57 ah yeah! Good one 👍
Great Review Ryan! I missed the charging station for the mouse bot 😆 I will add a lights for the lava and each of the floors. I think you have the top of Vader's meditation chamber upside-down. The black piece in step 180 is at the top. Check page 137.
I’m still waiting for jedi bobs castle but this is okay
You're such an underrated character. IT'S NOT FAIR.
I think the “pre-leak” that Jangbricks did is a pre-leak of Jedi Bob’s castle....we can all hope
Can’t wait
The chossen one is here Jedi Bob
All hail the king
I disagree Ryan- without the arrows I probably wouldn’t be able to open the box😕
Me to
Carson CarCar same
Honestly tho
Yup
I just rip it up like it’s a Christmas present
"Not in the movies". First ever appearance in Rogue One but ya know
The Jedi With No Name it's based on the vr!! If it was rogue one it would have krennic but instead it has the blue pilot from the vr ride
Sorry if I said that. I definitely referenced it was in Rogue One so quite a contradictory statement I made there!
Actually the first ever appearance was in the comic books during the creation of the castle
@@nickdonalds6546 actually those were made in 2017
@@legoroan9866 and it also appeared in the Darth Vader comics
Lego fans: Remake the venator
Lego: makes triangle
Ooh, it’s a black triangle.
It's okay, we still have space for a UCS Venator or Star Destroyer still... Fingers crossed lads 😥
Lego remakes sets from 2014!
the venator is from 2009! Where is the remake!?
@16 Bit Bricks is that where they do reveal?
It's a... Step in the right direction. Baby steps.
"a nice high-quality cardboard box" pretty accurate description of my house.
A nice chuckle I recieved
Oh self burn.Those are rare
High quality cardboard? You are living good 😳
U live in a cardboard box but u still have a phone
@@babygrootstudios7246 whoosh
The background is familiair
Ooo i remember
Obi wan kenobi Wanna be obi
You knockoff.
Obi wan kenobi No you don’t dumb kid.
The high ground
General Kenobi! You are a bold one.
Not to be that type of guy but I’m pretty sure on top of the Sith Shrine it is a Sith Holocron
That is rigth
I have found a fellow Star Wars nerd
I was going to say something but yeah and great use of the nexo knight pyramid piece for the holocron
Dark Shadow He meant the kyber crustal in the roch on the other side 11:33
Actually, in the Darth Vader comic, the shrine is a way to talk to the dead. The castle was build by an ancient Sith who possessed a mask, and he told Vader that it would be a way to talk to Padmé. However, the Sith used it to resurrect himself, and Vader killed him
In the Darth Vader comic series (which is canon), the Emperor’s Royal Guards actually watch Vader and make sure he doesn’t betray Palpatine. For the Sith, they have to kill their masters as Palpatine mentioned in Revenge of the Sith with Darth Plaegus. The Royal Guards don’t protect him. Just a little Star Wars lore your you guys. Have a good day.
Ryan Studios I know that but, they are also there to protect him as well.
Cooper Fisher they didn’t really. They made sure nothing went wrong, but hardly protected him.
Oh, that's actually pretty interesting! I didn't know that! How are the comics - are they good? I might have to check them out!
Brick Bakery they’re ok. They are canon and Vader tries to revive Padmé.
@@RyanStudios50166 sounds cool - I'll check them out if I find them! Thanks :-)
This is from Rogue One tho! Great review
I know I know. I think I meant to say it wasn’t based off the movies because I know it was in RO. 😭
It makes an appearance in Rogue One buT is based off of the VR experience
DTinaglia Studios im going to be
a “spelling nazi” and say its though
not tho.
Thomas Marrocco Did you even watch the movie? The castle is on Mustafar not Scarrif. There is more than one planet in the movie
@@LoganE It's actually based off the comics. The castle is used to bring back the dead.
Gotta aim upwards to be able to shoot Obi-Wan. I didn't know that Ryan is embracing the meme.
There won't be a meme to embrace if article 13 is passed #saveyourinternet
You were supposed to kill trolls not join them D:
You will never beat him he has the high ground
You underestimate my power!
@@lilypie3587 *weird jump spin move
I can just imagine Ryan just sitting on the floor holding an x-wing and a tie-fighter and swooshing them around.
“Pew pew pew”
“Vrooooom”
*explosion noises*
I think the top meeting area is where Director Krennic gets choked by Vader
You are not the only one who thinks that
Dave Nation BE CAREFUL NOT TO CHOKE ON YOUR ASPIRATIONS, DIRECTOR.
I think you’re right.
It looks just like that
can we just get another arc-170 already....
Defo my favourite ship
Please
I think venator needs it first
Fr
I thought that Darth Vader's Castle was first featured in Rogue One, then shown more later on in the Darth Vader comic series?
Check out Vader's comic issues 21 and 22. It is a cool , dark story of the design of the castle. Really recomend it.
Yeah the sith shrine is from the comics!
Actually, it showed up originally in an older comic series and a book.
@@Zilis_ different planet though
"Bacta" Darth Vader looks incredible, a great one along with "Bacta" Luke from 75203 and Anakin from 75183, it's pretty cool to see official minifigs which have nothing to envy to custom ones...
I hope Lego will continue to release unique ones like this.
Wasn’t a fan of this set when it was announced but after seeing all the playability and features it has I actually think this is a pretty well rounded set. Add in your Director Krenic fig and you’ve got a badass scene straight out of Rogue One 😎
Indeed - I'm wondering why they'd not include Krennic! Even if it's based on the VR-thing there's sure going to be more people recognizing it with Krennic in there!?
One of the best Star Wars sets in a while! seeing the pictures I just wasn't impressed, but seeing it in this review, it's just really good! I still think $130 is a bit too much! maybe 100-$110 would be better
I checked and I now think it is about 120
@@Neotheidiot it's 105 on Amazon now
I'm 90% sure the pilot figure is supposed to be an imperial 501st trooper since Darth Vader owned the 501st even after 66 and the 501st was transformed into a stormtroopers legion
16:23 I think they were referring to where Vader met Krennic in R1
You should do a worst to first on LEGO Star Wars advent calendars
Cooper Stephens yeah! Great idea!
Scrap Baby how??
Isaiah Coulanges lets do it
I'm relatively new to your channel but just wanted to say I love your screen presence, analysis and delivery of the info!
Because of you I got the Razor crest and I have no regrets 😁
When the mouse droid has more reiterations than commander Cody
As well as every other named clone
Dagn, great set, I just wish they released it after Rogue One was released in movie theaters
That would have been cool! But it would have been more expensive.
Didn't have the idea
Man i saw your animation on this it was si fucking great !!Keep up the good work
@@cav6558 you are right! I checked out his channel and it is awesome. I subscribed.
Yeah, it would have gotten way more many sales with the hype for Rogue One
"Ya can flip it around, and have a good time"

15:38 That's for putting the lightsaber on.
Ah! Good one👍
@@makitagut2472 Yep
Ryan’s biggest complaint:
*the box is absolutely aweful even though the art is cool*
Lol love your videos Ryan! Keep it up!
Ryan: it’s not based off any movies or anything
Rogue one: am I a joke to you
Ryan: Yes
He literally mentioned krennic and Rogue one.🙄
Although it was seen in the VR, it’s focus has been in the latest Vader comics. If you’re interested in the set I’d recommend checking out the comics as they are really well written.
Totally agree. Issues 21 -23 cover the design of the castle and I cant wait for issue 24!!
Cool - I might have to check those out! Do you know if there are TPBs of them yet?
Brick Bakery tpb’s?
Isaac F sorry - trade paperbacks. I’m curious if they are only available as single issues or if they’ve been published as collections too :-)
Brick Bakery I’m not sure. I have the marvel app that allows you to read them on your phone but I’m sure they make physics copies
I'm holding out for $75 which means I will probably never own this set lol
brickitect Ha, same!
Same
Possibly buy a like new condition used set? Or even the set without some figures I guess if you aren't too stressed over them? How do you guys get newer sets cheaper other than waiting for a sale? I'm keen on the AT-AP in jan
Amazon will put it on sale for $90 next Black Friday and you'll buy it. Placing my bet now.
Hi
I think this is definitely my next set. It’s bigger than I expected way bigger, I love how it looks, very menacing. I LOVE all the details they put for example on the sides the little compartments for the studs and the all the stuff going on inside the castle the meditation chamber and it’s so cool it includes a little tie fighter. Awesome set it’s Perfect.
Obi wan: you've become the one thing you swore to destroy
Anakin is now a sandcastle
Of corse the Meeting Area is a Veranda! The Emperor comes in his Impirial-Springbreak tou visit Lord Vader! Drinking Dark-Side-Tee and talking about the good old Days, when Vader choced his Whive and Palpatine rescute him. Sweet Memorys before the dark times of Disney 😄
Ps. sorry for the bad englisch and hallo from Germany
Haaaaa-hahahaha! I think you are completely right - I can see it now! Great stuff :-D
Moin
Darth Vader's Castle actually has its origins with the Empire Strikes Back. When pitching story ideas for what was then going as "Star Wars II" George and Leigh Brackett pitched the idea of Vader having headquarters inside a castle on a volcanic planet, which never got past those meetings, but made a lasting impression with fans as those ideas were published in various making of books over the decades and ended up finally canon in Marvel Comics and the Disney Rogue One film which led to the lego set.
I had no idea that this was a Amazon exclusive! It might have been a little odd to get out but I like that LEGO actually tried to do something to preserve the instructions - any anti-curl initiative is cool :-D The set looks cool I think - I like the hangar and the sith shrine! Very cool! The bacta tank is also pretty cool! I like this set overall I think! I'd love to have seen a couple of Stormtroopers and maybe an imperial officer too. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work :-)

Another episode was sponsored by the word "rough"
*In star wars VR Experience*
Vader Immortal: am i a joke to you?
In secrets of the empire (the vr game ryan showed early in the video) the blue hovering pilot is one of the main characters
Great Review!
I think it is great that LEGO has finally utilized having two sides of a box, and eliminated the worry for crushed, wrinkled, or torn instructions! I would have loved this five years ago!
- side note, the app portion of the instructions was released when the set was.
Alternate title: Ryan shows off his Hovertank Pilot
Palpatine: Really cool castle you have here Vader.
Darth Vader: I'm pleased that you approve my master...
Palpatine: You know, this reminds me of the story of Darth Plagueis the....
Darth Vader: NooooooooOooooooo!
You mean the tragedy of darth
When Ryan looks for the instructions online: ‘impossible, perhaps the archives are incomplete’
Ryan: *points stud shooter directly at camera*
Literally every government agent ever: "Are you challenging me?"
Would’ve been really cool if Lego included Krennic and Grand Moff Tarkin
The meeting area represents the platform where Darth Vader talks to Director Krennic in Rogue One
In the word of jar jar "messa love it"
That's because he's a sith lord
This is already one of my favourite sets but because of your awesome review I love it even more!
Loved watching the live stream of you building this
I like that Vader's personal pilot has 501st colours.
This set is great but the inside is a bit small for me .
The bacta tank design for Vader is actually based on the Marvel Star Wars comics that were released for Vader. That "tech" that's inside his skin is part of his suit's life support, it's a little relay for his modulator thing that amplified his voice, and gave his lungs direct access to air because they were so scarred and destroyed.
Actually Vader’s Castle was in Rogue One.
This is what a play set should be: recognizeable and fun
I’ve been browsing amazon, and somehow found a Lepin Darth Vader’s castle, nice job amazon.
Looks great! Love the fact that it is like the LOTR Isengard set in which it actually appears like the edifice in the film from most angles/views. I agree that we should have gotten Krennic with the set though.
I wonder if Vader walks all the way to the top and says “it’s over obi wan I have the high ground!”
Before watching the video I got an ad for an offbrand "Johny Johny" video
I love that they includedthe Sith shrine from the Vader comics!
The "Meeting Area" on the forth floor is i think where Director Krennic met Darth Vader in Rogue One
I think you are right! I'd love to have seen a Krennic fig in this set!
LOL 😂 “Obi Wan Kenobi Coming from the high ground.” Best line in this video!
I think the meeting area is supposed to be the place that Vader talks with Krennic in rogue one
The piece in the meditation room is for his lightsaber
Vader has the high ground now. This is why obi wan lost to vader, regardless where he was.
Lego:Let’s upgrade the hover tank pilot.
Lego designers:lets make it blue
Lego: BRILLIANT
Thanks you for the review
The "Meeting Area" is probably inspired by the scene from Rogue One where he... Meets with Krennic. As for the placement, it's probably just the only place they had left for it, and as opposed to the rest of the rooms this one didn't necessarily have to be "inside" as it was a more open area anyway
Such a beautiful set can't wait to build it tomorrow :D
15:44 for those curious; that’s storage for vaders lightsaber
Bought this set during the Cyber Monday sales on Amazon, it’s gonna look great in my room no doubt.
Me too!!
I think the handlebar on the meditation level is for his lightsaber bearing in mind that this is a play set after all
I stumbled onto the VR experience. I just knew it was Star Wars then I saw the blue trooper and i now understood where the set came from and what I was in. I highly recommend the experience it’s really cool, don’t shoot your friends they’ll shoot back and it stings, and when you see Vader there’s no where to run all you can do is scream as he approaches. 😂
RIP Lieutenant Athex he died a hero
I did the VR at a movie theater in Texas. It is incredible. You can feel the heat of the lava and it’s just amazing.
Does this set have good swooshability?
@Orange Jello for science? 🤔 You hear that Ryan? the people have spoken and they want more sets like the colosseum chucked into oblivion
Nobody:
Ryan:rants about how he knows to open it from the top and when he picks it up it shows he opened it from the bottom
I like the set
This set is almost $200 now on Amazon. is that worth it?
15:37 you can place darth Vaders lightsaber on top of it, thats what its meant for
I only get to see my dad once or twice a year and I got to see him for February vacation and he got the Darth Vader castle for us to build
I want this set just for the blue pilot
Actually, he is a character from the VR game secrets of the empire. His name is lieutenant Athex.
@@joeyk107 makes me want him even more now lol
8:52
MandR is pleased with the size of it
I’m pretty sure this appears in Rogue One.
And in legends
I really like the little mouse drones charging house
Nice! I was at the stream yesterday!
Same here!
I really like the Transport Pilot figure! It’s cool that Lego is making more variants of stormtroopers.
8:53 this set is surprisingly tall
16:53 obi wan on the high ground
Obi wan must have a very good high ground dealer
You think he’s friends with Nepal or Kilimanjaro?
He might have been dealing a few death sticks from this other guy in the bar. Maybe that’s how he got in to dealing and met this high ground dealer.
Hey Ryan I wanted to thank you because this video inspired me to get this set for my birthday on February 10th so please wish me a happy birthday and have a good life
I really what this set!!!!

At the beginning of the vid he says the QR code didn’t work and the app said the instructions didn’t exist it reminds me of star wars ep 2 where the librarian says “the system you are looking for doesn’t exist”.
I could’ve been first but it was too busy watching the video
I think it makes sence that you can qr scan it because its an exclusive and lego does not want people to just scan and buiild with what they have for a cheeper price.
Vader castle was in rouge one
Oh my gosh this set came out for the Vader immortal VR experience which it was in and not rogue one even though it was in it
Yes and the Vader comic as well.
@@makitagut2472 I know that I've read those comics
@@TaunTaunTundra4477 awesome! I cant wait to get issue 24!!
@@makitagut2472 yeah can't wait to see what Vader does to momin
I really hope they eventually release a even bigger full size version of this
It's a SITH HOLOCRON, NOT a jewel.
I think the arrows aren’t part of the box design, it was probably applied the wrong way when the box was flipped upside down, and the employee/machine put applied it incorrectly
Im gonna buy this set only for 501st trooper who cares about whole or Vader's I WANNA THAT TROOPER
BoomBler just buy the trooper then
It's not a 501st trooper. It's a rebel spy named Athex from the game Secrets of the Empire.
The handles they are probably so you can put Darth Vader‘s light saber
For some one who buys Lego Star Wars...you don't know anything bout Star Wars.
I picked it up for 90 bucks. That 40 dollar price difference really makes up for the wait. Great review. I watched this while building the set.
Ngl. Watching any of these review videos be so harsh. He complains about EVERYTHING. Nitpicking things that shouldn’t really matter as much. Grown man complained about the box art and how to open it properly like??? It’s for kids bro. Enjoy Lego for doing it and making it.
Exactly
