Yea

Lol removin bricks XD
hi
@Why Is Kashmir Real? yo
Of course, this list increases massively if you include all the old-school Technic sets where you had to remove bricks if you wanted to motorise them (8842 is a good example)
wait? old school? I havent been in touch with lego for a while but id be surprised if they actually got rid of those
I'm a bit out of the loop myself but I had a look on Brickfactory and they don't seem to be there any more
@@inimitablestoo I was going to mention that I remembered there being a motorizeable pneumatic volvo crane set in like 2017 but then I realized that 2017 was 5 years ago
Also for the technic red monster truck, you had to build a red structure to stabilize the wheels' axis and then unbuild it when you finished the steps
@@circumplex9552 Five years? That’s insane to me
The new DeLorean that just came out also has a step where you have to remove bricks from the model
Came here to say the same thing!
Yep!
It was the first time I had to do that for model
Yep! It was to keep the lever in the proper orientation for the wheel flip mechanism.

Fun fact: the stud colors on the fender stratocaster set actually match the colors code of the balls on the ends of Fender’s strings
Also the Fender Strings
@@TomSomniac ah fair. I guess it’s a universal color code
@@Coffeekitty7 It's not universal the D'addario strings have a different color coding, after red comes black, This is the fender color coding
@@Mr_Foeko oh my bad lol
It seems I'm not the only one who had to check this one ^^
For me, the most interesting ones are those that, after being removed, are repurposed somewhere else on the model.
This shows that the designer thought about the construction from the start to the end, the end to the start and then optimized the procedure from start to end.
I mean they also could have been like
“Hey this thing later in the build could be used as a support for the start to save a couple pieces”
The 2 yellow cylinders blocks are repurposed as containers in the ecto-1 ser
So basically, this rare occurrence only happens if you have a large brickbuilt vehicle set.
I also noticed that pattern.
Guitar
@@dieselboy.7637 guitar is a vehicle 🗿
Very strange that the 2020 AT-AT didn’t do that. I had to build a small temporary stand for it because the instructions have you put the bottom details on before building the legs…
😂😂
couldn't you just build legs first and then the rest?
If I recall correctly, the Pirates of Barracuda Bay also uses a temporary brick-built support under the rudder to help stabilize building of the stern hull section. This support is removed in step 524 before putting the hull in island mode. That was my first experience with temporary bricks. We haven’t reconfigured the wreck into a functioning ship yet - we also have the smaller Pirate Ship set which we use for getting around.
The guitar set actually has some real life correlations too! When you open a pack of strings they've got different colored ends that end up getting hidden away or cut off that help you differentiate the strings there too.
Similar to the Ferrari build, the colored studs for the Fender guitar represent the colored Ball-Ends that sit on the end of each guitar string. When installing new strings you sometimes have to cut them off just like you do in the build.
Yes was going to say that. Most if not all guitar strings are color-coded.
It does seem like a reference to that - nice nod (though usually the ball-ends are at the bottom). Curiously, colour-coding is far less common on strings for acoustic guitars, perhaps because depending on the guitar built the ball-ends are visible, or perhaps because acoustic strings are less flimsy and thus easier to distinguish... so historically colour-coding strings may only have become a thing with electric guitars and their typically thinner strings.
The strings were the hardest part of the build for me.
I’m a huge fan of how each iteration of removing brick instructions has its own design and technique to it, like legos really trying to figure out how to convey it LMAO
I think the helicarrier is the best one
I think it was in the "Mobile Crane MK II" Where you build a whole construction to alline the wheels and then take apart completly and reuse it in the set.
Yeah i just checked
In the Manual 1 for the body you build it in 51 and you take it apart in 54
my thoughts exactly!
this was my first set that had me deconstruct pieces. very clever technique for aligning so many axles
They use the same trick in 8421 - the original Mobile Crane.
It's genius to reuse temporary support/alignment bricks later in the build.
quick fact about the fender strings, Real fender strings have a color coded ring on the strings to attach them to the guitar body, The colors of the knobs in the set represent the color coding fender uses on their strings and is placed in the right order in the set. Just a little extra detail the designer of this set put into this!
LEGO Technic 9398 has a massive support structure for the otherwise very difficult to assemble floppy wheels, there’s like 20 pieces to it if remember correctly
Fun fact with the Fender build. Guitar strings have knobs on the end with similar colours to tell you which order you should use them to string your guitar. A nice touch that Lego could make actual guitar players feel a little more at home with the set.
Come to think of it I still need to track down that creator expert Ford Mustang set but i don't think it's retiring for now so I still have time to get it. It looks Great on display and makes for one solid car build the engine detail for starters is sick and the overall shaping of the car is spot on. I didn't know so many sets had these steps in builds and it's cool when a set has you build something for stability and then that gets removed and turned into something else it's clever and adds to the build experience giving you some new building techniques/ways of using pieces.
I recently bought the mustang and it was a great build. Oddly large box though, much bigger than the other creator expert boxes.
It is weird how it is retiring in July and not at the end of the year.
@@caesar7734 wait what? It's retiring soon? Thank God I got one from Walmart a couple weeks ago
The Death star II UCS also removed pieces all the way back in 2005. You had to remove some green 2x2 plates from the planet destroying laser sub-build. they were used to align some pieces better.
This is something very interesting that lego rarely does.
uh yeah
The Lego Death Star II (2005) does this too. When building the superlaser dish, you're instructed to place 4 2x2 green plates evenly placed on its sides. I assume they act as orientation indicators? They don't remain there for very long before placing the dish in the main build.
The new back to the future Delorean has a step where you remove two yellow 2by2 bricks with built in technic pins. I messed it up and had to take apart the set because I didn’t put them on right and the tire flipping mechanism wasn’t working. But 10 out of 10 awesome set
Same, the tire flip didn't work at first for me and it only went halfway there when flipped
@@chocofrolik834 yeah that part is very tedious and I had to take it apart and try again to get it right
The 9398 technic crawler had some support to hold the steering in place as you build the axle, which later gets reused in the body
The 2008 VW beetle set has you remove tan bricks from the structure, that are later repurposed for the seats
This is interesting and shows how much thought goes into design of the sets and the use of the pieces during the build process.
The instructions for the Ecto-1 also confused me where some pieces with designs printed on them did not match the designs in the instruction book
That's because the set was designed at a time where those prints where in use, but when it started production those prints had been updated and the old ones retired. I have the set too, and it was quite weird
I remember that the 2014 heavy load crane had you build a small rig out of lift arms for the steering. The steering was assembled with the gears not engaged to the racks because 4 of the 5 axle steered, and that rig is used to align the racks to then slide the gears over to engage. The lift arms are used in the cab afterwards i believe.
There were also a few technic set that did this to accommodate the PF addon set. The Volvo EW160E get the chassis cleared out for the battery, the parts of which get used to secure the battery, you'll also have to disconnect the supply tube from the hand pump, and stick that onto the rotor pump operated by the motor.
I modified that though to add a T joint so i can use hand pump and motor at the same time, also put in that switch so i can have the lights and not annoy anyone with the motor.
My first and only encounter with this was the 2003 Sports Hockey Puck Passer, which was used for that whole line. You use an axle to align a part. Then you remove it and use it afterwards.
About Ecto-1, these removed cylindrical yellow bricks are actually being used for yellow canisters on top.
One set that I noticed removed peices was the winter village Santa's workshop set. (I don't rember the year or exact title) the one of the last steps is to take the reindeer and take off a 2x1 plate with a 2x1tile. This was to make space for the rehins that atatched them to the sleigh.
I never knew they did this
On set 9398, the motorised 4x4 crawler, you had to build a scaffolding piece to carry the body of the car, It’s strange it wasn’t featured on the list ):
I appreciate that some of these repurpose the pieces you remove, that way no pieces get wasted
Same with old 8460 set, it has giant support part that eventually rebuild into actual part of construction
wanted to say the same. As far as I remember it was to align the steering from front to back before they were connected
You forgot to mention the legendary service truck! On that set, you have to place these big beams and bushings over the steering mechanism so it stays aligned. This confused me when I was little since you couldn't steer the thing!
Lego really finds a way to surprise us by either putting bricks in wrong places or even having to remove pieces, just really add the cherry on top!
Lego is one of the few companies left in the world with little to no toxic fans or haters of the companies. Probably because of their ingeneuity
Never knew this ! The first one is funny and the second is kind of smart
Man I'm so happy I found this channel and community. I didn't know there was this many Lego fanatics out there and it makes my heart happy
This is really smart of Lego. Thank you for making this video about this unique technique.
The V-19 Torrent does this as well! When assembling the engines, to ensure the wings are aligned you add a technic piece to the side
Wow this was so fascinating
Cool bro!I love these videos!
I liked the way the Ford re-used the parts, it was nice knowing I wouldn’t end up with random parts like that in my spares box.
Pretty interesting! Thanks for the video! The one using the technic pins to temporarily hold the gears in alignment is smart and actually seems useful. All the temporary stands don't seem as necessary. And did people in the focus groups really cross the strings on the Fender when building it so that they had to color-code them?
Very interesting. Thanks.
First set I ever had to remove bricks from was the UCS Death Star II. It has bricks that are needed to create the super laser dish but are taken off once it is ready to attach to the main model
You should've included 42009 where technic liftarms are used to prevent the weels steering. Its very clever
As a person who likes consistency. It kinda annoys me that there's no consistency in how they mark removal of bricks. I get that this is a rare feature, but so is the feature of showing how to disassemble pieces, and that has a consistent style.
I actually own and has built one of these sets, but I don’t remember taking peace’s of since I was very young, need to revisit it some day
This video was brilliant, had no idea some sets require removal
One I remember as a kid was on the 8460 pneumatic crane. To get the timing of the steering axles correct, you'd build a frame with a few beams and a couple plates to lock the axles straight until you got the gearing installed. Those parts got used later in the build. I remember the first time building it that I had trouble finding one of the beams as I didn't take apart the temporary frame after removing it.🤣
I have that fender guitar one, that was a really interesting build, I felt like an electrician or something building the internal circuits of the amp.
Also the Creator Expert Porsche 911 uses this technique, to switch between the Turbo and the Targa versions.
3:35i had that I always wondered what those ship pieces went to tysm lol
The 7781 Batman set “Two-Face Chase” does the same thing with the Batmobile, where 1x6 tiles are placed at the front and back to hold parts until more are added. It’s kinda odd as they’re bright red on the all black Batmobile
Loved the video
I have the F40 built, forgot about that 1×4 plate removal. Also have the fender guitar but haven't builded it yeah.
That lego ideas pirate set looks really cool!
I built the Lego mustang set and it was awesome, I love the customization you can do with it
This video was pretty epic
a more recent one, in the new back to the future time machine set, two yellow 2x2 bricks with technic pins are put on the bottom to keep the lever from flipping, which you later take off and put on another part of the set.
That "supporting" reminds me of the Lego technic set 9398 4x4 Crawler, where there is in some step the instruction to take the bottom of the future car and rest it on one of the tires :D. I remember watching it on youtube and when I got it once to birthday, I remember how I saw it and kinda laughed at it a little. Cool video! ;)
I remember that while building the 8421 Mobile Crane, you had to add a subassembly of technic liftarms over all four wheel axles before adding the gears for the steering mechanism, so that all axles are aligned with each other, and afterwards you had to remove that subassembly.
I was about to comment this one, could it be that this was the 42009 mobile crane from 2013?
@@thomasvandenbossche5439 No, although it is very similar. The one I was talking about is from 2005.
lego ideas: nothing
1. Build The eifel tower
2. Remove it
3. Ur done
Didn’t knew that!
that is hilarious, u make amazing content man!
I don't remember removing the Technic pins from the Imperial Landingcraft. But in all fairness it was more than ten years ago.
The 10300 set (Delorean) had 2 yellow pieces that you need to remove aswell. They are placed on page 28 of instruction and removed on 58 and repurposed on 59
I never realized you had to take those white pieces off while building the mustang until I finished the main car build and loooked at the box
I remember from building the 9398, the manual said to place the frame ontop of a tire for support, but not attached, and you later had to lift the car of that tire.
If I am not mistaken, that set also came with a disassembly manual for the B- model.
I find it funny that the studs used for the fender guitar build are the colors of guitar hero buttons
I built the fender stratocoaster a few days ago!
Just did this for a Non-Lego set I designed. Interesting to see that lego did this before.
This video was so good
This is a good video!
5:33 my favorite lego train
I remember not knowing what those mustang supports were for. They were totally un necessary but it is clever that they used them later.
Lego pieces are temporary, but Doom is Eternal.
I own both the Mustang and Ecto-1. I was so confused on those steps. Never before have I ever removed bricks. When I was building the mustang I somehow skipped that step to remove those bricks. When I got to the page to built the nitro tank I thought I was missing bricks. To be fair I was was building it around 2AM. lol
lego star wars v19 (set 7674) has an interesting use of parts to be removed: to help you line up attach the engines you need a techbar.
I actually have that Ferrari F40 set, when I saw the thumbnail I hoped it was in the video! Awesome!
When the helicarrier is upside down kinda looks cool
Can we just appreciate that in the case of the supports on the emerald night they could have placed the 1x4s in the other orientation, but decided on the way they did because the other one would have been stupidly hard to take back apart?
the new delorean has a similar techinque, you place a orange 2x2 brick to stop the "lever" that later turns the car into flying mode
5893 is genius and we need more sets like that!
Actual guitars also use little differently coloured dots at the ends of strings, but rather than being for avoiding tangling the wires it is for knowing which string is which in EBGDAE
Set 8421 also has a part where you remove studs or parts.
of which 1 support is to keep the wheels straight, due the gears used. to combine the wheel hubs
Congrats on 600k :)
Yesterday I was building the guitar set and I noticed that two where you just remove the studs I finally got an explanation
The 4x4 offroader also makes use of this. It's a cotraption that stabilizes the axles
I actually JUST bought that fender set before watching this video haha
There is that one mars mission set called the crystal reaper that makes you remove pieces to motorize it too, amazing power functions build.
The lego technic 10×10 crane set has you construct this bar to hold the steering in place while you put the giant ass steering axle in
It would be awesome if those Fender Stud pieces were the Guiter Hero note colors
The Lego 42009 mobile kraan MK II set has quite a lot of bricks you have to take Apart, and i believe it even happens multiple times
@ 4:10
"Lego uses vibrant studs to make sure the builder does not get the strings tangled or out of order"
Actually, Fender uses those ball colours on it's strings in the real world, it's not a random decision for colours :D
Wow dude that's something I didn't know about legos instructions
i remember having a set as a kid that also removed bricks to attach wheels, it might've been the space shuttle or a boeing airplane
Support Bricks! I did that alot when I was really into Lego... But it makes sense!
I have a lego halo elephant. That one came with a bunch of red 2x4 bricks to put at the bottom that were later removed and used for nothing.
