      I only agree halfway after building mine. Everything you mentioned is 100% true, but sadly, the color accuracy is once again terrible. The wings are not white, they are literaly 50 shades of grey, full pun intended. That's a bummer, because otherwise it might have been a near-perfect set, close to the Saturn V. But still, great set, 8.5/10 for me.

    I have seen supports be used by Lego before, mostly in older Technic sets where they were used to keep front & rear wheels aligned. However, I'm pretty sure the leftovers of those sets were repurposed into later parts of the build. The Starry Night set also has a lot of extra 1x4 plates that are acknowledged in the manual, probably to give some leeway if you make a mistake building the back "wall". Overall though, I've never seen anything like the supports here. I do like them, though!

      @rc-fannl7364 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    A truly unique and substantial build with great, and unusual techniques throughout. Very impressed how solid, and stable the plane is given it's sheer length and precariously balanced stand. Also really like how all the parts all printed and not stickered. Needs to become the standard of all Lego Icons sets at some point given the 18+ target audience and how much they cost.

Normally these are only used to create the displays at the Lego land amusement parks. Definitely looking forward to building this.

    I quite like the livery they went with actually. The Concorde test livery is quite famous in its own right and was pretty much the only way you'd have seen Concorde looking between its First flight in 1969 and 1976 when airlines first began to fly it. There's an aircraft museum near where I live which has one of the original Concorde prototypes and thus it's in this livery too

Since then, I was always left after the impression that Lego could do more with their more complicated sets. And this Concorde is just wonderful in every way I can think of. Mad respect for the designing team that brought this to life. I hope one day they'll bring back the fun in Technic as well, because they are rocking the system builds nowadays. And thank you for making this video such an immersive experience, it really felt like I was building it :)

    @RacingBrick you’ve shown the absolute BEST idea on how to utilize the awesome giant sized Lego technic supercar series by mounting it on a matching background (reminds me of Porsche’s history of great marketing) and then mounting to the wall vertically, I have just the space to put such a thing and now I can totally justify the few hundred dollar cost as the equivalent of a nicely framed whatever. Great job friend.

    The orange connector at 3:45 is used for disassembly of the Concorde. When you push the axle in on step 140 after assembling the fuselage, it "fixes" the fuselage to the wing and you can damage the pieces with brute force disassembly. You can reach the orange connector with a long axle from the landing gear bay to undo step 140 before disassembly.
    Not too intuitive, but it's nice they considered it and learned from the AT-AT mishap...

    Just to add to the comments, I remember the Lego Technic Crawler (41999) having structural supports that weren't used in the end build.
    I've literally just finished this build and it's amazing.

    I’m sure people will come up with alternative vertical stabilisers for the alternative liveries

    I knew I was going to buy this set the moment I saw the leaked images. But now that I know what an incredible build experience it is, I might have to buy two! 😂

    That concorde is amazing, perfect for a shelf piece. I'm now torn between getting it for my Dad for Christmas, or for myself this year :)

    Recently I got to walk around, under, and inside a Concorde. Truly a magnificent metal bird.

    Man, this set is a sight to behold.
    Interestingly, I have seen stuff like the support parts before, but most of the time, those parts are incorporated into the build. The one exception I have had to deal with was a Star Wars set, 7674 V-19 Torrent. There was a yellow Technic beam that was used to help build the engine sections, and I was so confused when it was not actually part of the build. But, I think these orange parts are good, they're useful anti frustration parts. Although, at least with the landing gear, couldn't Lego just have a diagram, like they do with Technic sets?
    It also would have been nice to have the support parts incorporate into the stand, or something like that, but overall, this is still a beautiful set.

    When I built the Discovery I felt it was fragile until a certain point, so the orange pieces are probably to counter those criticisms. I'm impressed with the set but I have nowhere to display it.

    Great video and I am excited to build mine. It is too bad that they didn't model after the first production model. I recall as a kid seeing the Concorde for the first time in my dad's Aviation Week magazine with British Airways on one side, and Air France livery on the other side as a special inaugural livery. Then again, I was 7 years old, but that's what i remember.
