My best friend had this growing up!! We used to build some serious past present and future empires with this train set being 1 of like 20 centerpieces!! He and his family had a lot of money, and always took him and I to Toysrus and they wouldnt only buy him toys, they let me pick out toys, buy them for me to take home! But this set bought back sooo many memories!! 100s-1000s of sleep overs for weekends over the years!!
Nice score, glad you got more than you thought. Why LEGO thinks trains won't sell and do cool things like that now is beyond me. I don't know if they could make one handle their curves, but I would love a big boy.
There's nothing wrong with the City box. If you're looking at the front of the box (as displayed on a shelf) the top (ie, top-side panel) is going to show the train from bottom to top. This is so the train will appear as it should when the customer is looking at the box on the store shelf (a big set like this would be on the bottom shelf, so it reasons the top of the box would be visible and so must show the train right-side-up from both the front and top panel of the box).
I like the tank engine version of the large locomotive and would have enjoyed seeing it running. I wish the Lego Express had come with the extra parts needed to build that version. I feel your pain on the box having upside-down sides. The boxes for Titans Return Trypticon and Fortress Maximus do the same damn thing!
The ending of this video was mind-bending :D I didn't know if up was up or down was down...(I need to check some of my LEGO boxes now!) :D Excellent LEGO Train & stuff in that box to :P
Those 1x1 modified bricks in blue are super expensive, ask me how I know 😅. The only seller I saw that had 12 of them were selling them for $3 each 😬. Also nice trick for getting quadruple watch time, you used the same clip at 10:35 and 11:27 so I watched them back again to make sure I wasn't crazy 😂
I’m glad I didn’t have but those - didn’t realize how expensive they were. As far as the clip - oops. Lol! Members only perk. Trying to edited it out now
@@Mardigrasman23 This is a special version of My own trains sold in 2004, exclusively in North America. There is a even rarer version- 65536 which is limited to only 2000 copies few people know.
Now we have to wait 3 weeks for the next BrickTsar video because he's just going to go through every box in the collection and check the orientation of the side panels....
So I had no clue, but I actually have a bunch of the pieces to this set from a bulk bin that I purchased a couple years ago. I recognize the stickers and I was trying to figure out which train set it was, now I know.
Super cool pick up. These are the kinda hauls that are just astonishing to me, and get me in such a good mood just because it is so awesome to me to see a rare set end up with someone who will truly appreciate it.
LOL tenderly! How did you find an eBay seller who puts MORE stuff in a lot instead of less? And I’m dying to know how much this cost… Will you keep the track or put it in your store? I’m thinking of doing the loco in more recent colors.
I got a bunch of my own trains from clearance at Toys R Us back in the day. There all in my storage locker up on Long Island. Someday my 9 volt will be in Florida
When you was checking to see when the guy originally bought the set and said it was 2004 I thought that’s not too long ago, then I thought about it’s bit more and realised it is almost 20 years ago. Lol I think the problem I have is since the year 2000 there hasn’t been a satisfactory way of defining the separate decades. Before you had the 70s, 80s and 90s and now we will probably use the 20s for this decade but between we had two decades without a clear definition.
I was just talking with my family the other day about how the early 2000s don’t seem that long ago - like we are still in that era. But when you think about 1977 been as close to 2000 as today - I’m wondering where the time went. Definitely see the changes in styles and homes and trends between decades until the 90s. I don’t know what the trend is the last 23 years. Maybe people glued to their phone watching Bricktsar videos - lol
I would like to have only 1 lego train in my collection, any recommendations? I was thinking to wait till polar express because for now I don't see nothing interesting...
That’s a tough one. Pick whatever is your favorite - cargo train or passenger train. They make one about every four years. The classics that are discontinued are probably too expensive now
@@destinvole3188 I just heard a mentioning of it, I didn't see it in the video. They just brought up the existence of it during a live haul for a big store in which a similar, but less rare train set, OIB, came in. I just wasn't aware there were train sets you could buy individual cars for. Then I think they mentioned your train set, I think, but perhaps I was wrong. Either way, nice score!
Looking forward to seeing that train running. Also, if you put the box upright like your lego pirate and look at ghe top, the train is printed correctly. After typing this out I'm thinking this could be a rare red brick moment of you I got to late...
Hey Jaabo I’ve come to the conclusion that LEGO are dumb. People like trains. People like LEGO. Combine both and you’ve got happy customers. It’s not difficult and it’s certainly not rocket science! Unfortunately, TLG don’t seem to be bothered about keeping loyal customers and seem more content with targeting the 18+, Adults Only market and releasing sets none of us can afford. I was fortunate to have been invited to a preview of a new LEGO store built in the iconic Battersea Power Station, London. It’s just down from where the new USA Embassy is based. Apartments in the area start at $1 million for a 1 bedroom home. The “mall” itself is chock packed with high end premium brands… when I asked the LEGO PR representative about why they opened a toy store in such a pricey location, she told me that LEGO was also a premium brand! That about sums up how the hobby has gone!

That sounds like a nice childhood! That makes me happy

If they made eider radius curves - it would sell. And the big boy too

Oh man, that Lego 375 set ❤
Hey Jaabo! That's a lot of cool stuff, trains track and all. Nice one man. Keep up the good work!!!!!
Thanks Jude!
BrickTsar is the best
Soooooo Jealous!
Very hard to get something you don’t have - lol
@@BrickTsar But you always have to want something or it would be boring.
Great train 🚂 set jaabo have great rest of your week 👍
Anyone else have dejavu watching some of this?
I think I found the extra clip. Will see if I can edit it out
Cool! Congratulations on the new addition to you collection. Yay!
That was a great auction. Unused sticker and all the track. Wow
I’m very happy with it.

Quintessential Jaabo quote "I need another Lego box".
Keep up the good work!
I remember seeing this listing on eBay and considered buying it because I'd never seen that set box before.
It was listed as 650$, sold on 5/22. But since I already have 2 65537, one MISB one second hand, I let it go 😅
i wish Lego would bring back selling the individual train cars
The realization of the tops being "upside down" in the end was a great close 😆
Oh wow, great find. That's what I get for not paying attention to ebay that much this year. 😂
I’m always bogging against you or @leggomyjameso
Joey how bout this set for the vault set. I didn’t know this version existed
It's a great excuse to build a LEGO train layout....😂😂😂

Great video!

Nice train mr bricktraintzar
Weird coincidence; saw these on a different channel about two hours ago!
Really? I’ve not seen that yet. I was hoping to be the first. Somebody. Beat me too it
@@BrickTsar it was merely mentioned during a video. Learned a lot more from you!
@@geologyjoerocks I don’t think any other TH-camr got this 65537. It took me years to find one 65537 brand new sealed last year for 1400$.

Never say never dude.
what does the Toblerone bar next to the xxl tipper truck do? is that a wheel stop or something like that?😛
Lol! It’s actually a ruler with various odd ways of measuring things
