Thanks to Vaggelis for this interview, make sure to follow him www.youtube.com/@delusionbrick5872 and if you have any questions post them below (as long as not confidential they can be answered)
I'm the designer of the Beetlejuice set that was up against the Goonies in the first wave. And I feel like Vaggelis was very correct in his account that even though we are 'competing' with each other, we all in the same community and can respect and admire the other builds. I speak with a lot of Lego Ideas designers as well, and many of the others that took place in the 80s challenge even. The Goonies set was fantastic and very deserving of the win. Look forward to when it hits the shelves :)
Just started watching, but love that you got him on to talk about this. I'm a 1980s kid (was 5 when the 80s started and 15 when it ended), so I grew up with all of the movies he referenced. Would LOVE a Labyrinth set to eventually be made with the full cast of main characters. So much could be done with that. This Goonies set will be a must buy for me. And hey, so great to see you yourself. I don't think I had seen a video yet where you were on camera. Nice to put a face with a voice. Back to the interview!
Two of my favorite sets of all time for building and display reasons are the Rivendell set and the newer Baracuda Bay sets, so it was great to hear him say those were a couple of his favorites as well.
Great interview, I’m so excited for this set! It was nice to put a face to the Stud-Lord voice. It’s funny how you imagine a person will look by their voice and in my experience they never look how you imagine 😊
I think you're on the money w/regard to the Transylvania set. I'm an AFOL who isn't interested in buildings or castle. This will be my first Bricklink purchase, because something I do love is horror. We haven't seen a lot of high end spooky in recent years, unless you count Harry Potter, which is a little spooky- but not really horror like the great Monster Fighers line was. I think there will be others like me.
Lovely set, can't wait to see the final LEGO version. I see that all the implicated people are "old lego series" fans. I think the Transilvania castle will be the fastest selling castle as well.
I think Vaggelis might just be right about the reason why the Pirates theme's not returning so soon..(28:01) Although, we just had the Eldorado Fortress, so you never know.. I know the whole Star Wars renaming issues are not Lego's fault, but Disney's request, so there's that.. (Slave I -> Boba Fett's Starship; Slave Leia -> Huttslayer Leia; etc.)
Hope they don’t change much of the Lego set only thing they have to add is the name of the ship the rope ladder going up the side and all the stuff on top of the deck and they have to add the one eye willys gold room with all the gold and he sat round the table with his other mates

Thanks for posting this! I've never been so excited for a LEGO Ideas set before. So happy for Delusion Brick.
Welcome, glad you enjoyed it

Very well said. And keep up the great submissions 👍
Very nice of you mate !! Thanks 🙏 I love also your design a love all 5 of them!
Fantastic set from a genuinely nice guy ... I am inspired to go watch The Goonies now for the first time
Thanks Stud-Lord for this great interview with my good friend Vaggelis, congrats once more for that awesome design. BTW, Marcos here! 👋
Thanks @brickester_ and I do want that ET diorama! And of course your upcoming art of chocolate from bricklink series 3 👌
Thank you for this interview. Such a great look behind the scenes of this competition. Also my first look at the Stud-Lord, nice bonus.
lol quite the treat 👍

Glad you enjoyed it, it was a pleasure to be able to interview Vaggelis.
Great lego set, its a shame the karate kid one isnt being made its really really good.
Cool to see what you look like Stud-Lord. Also, great video.
Glad to offer you some eye candy 😂
@@Stud-Lord LOL. Whether it's a good or bad thing, we look fairly alike, although I don't have my beard any longer.
One of my most anticipated sets that we know about. Can't wait!
Agreed
Great interview, I’m so excited for this set! It was nice to put a face to the Stud-Lord voice. It’s funny how you imagine a person will look by their voice and in my experience they never look how you imagine 😊
And yet my voice is so sexy how could you imagine different… 😂
@@Stud-Lord You have a fantastic voice, I just imagined you to be older 🤣
Thanks for this video !
I’m so getting this set when it hit the shelves !!! Has always been on top favorite movies of all time !
Glad you enjoyed the video. It’s an awesome looking set
If the younger ones haven't seen the Goonies, then their parents have failed them. I have made my kids watch it multiple times 🤣😂
lol
Good lord it’s stud lord! Great interview! What a scoop!
lol
Goonies never say die! Great interview and will 100% be picking this up as long as they don’t destroy it in the legoification of the set 🤞🏼
Thanks. Fingers crossed they keep it as close to as he’s designed it
He seems like a delightful human.
A pleasure to talk to
Very interesting interview!
Great interview btw 👌😎
Thanks for listening, glad you enjoyed it

I really wished we could have had both Goonies and the Karate Kid. I will be getting the goonies set for sure!
Probably in time, but it would be an overload, not least for our wallets, if they released all these amazing sets at once.
True, it would have been amazing
im 13 and the Goonies is one of my favourite films, im so excited for this set but it’s probably gonna be too expensive 😭
Lovely set, can't wait to see the final LEGO version.
I see that all the implicated people are "old lego series" fans.
I think the Transilvania castle will be the fastest selling castle as well.
Gooneise is one of my favorite movies
I'm so excited for this set. I only wish that all of the finalists could have been made into real sets (including his Karate Kid entry)
Yeah there were several really cool ones

Thanks so much :) mate
When will that set come out?
When will the goonies Lego set be released?
Thanks for this. Really looking forward to this set. Got to ask though what’s with the t shirt? Who are you not mentioning?
Hello Stud : Could you please tell us : Where and when this set will drop?
Thanks in advance ;)
Expect it end of 2025 but a long way off exact month 👍
@@Stud-Lord thanks a lot for the answer, I will be looking for it next year.
🙂✌️
Who’s mr Ralph?
🤫
Anyone else notice this looks similar to the sail barge
