Already did
bruh lego stop failing
Don’t tell me what to do
And the mistake for the Ghost Busters car is also a mistake in a Minions the rise of Gru set that I built with my friend so when we were building Keven or Stuart that same mistake was happening in that set I am not sure if LEGO has fixed or not
Sup it’s my birth day on Monday
The fact that mistakes in Lego sets are so hard to spot and are big deal shows how rare they truly are
Aye. Their quality control is amazing.
Malformed Legos are so rare you can sell them for a profit. If you ever find a Lego that didn't fill the mold all the way, it can be worth five bucks or more depending on the piece, color, and if it's vintage
Whats rarer lego misprints or lego sets that break the law
Yeah that how Lego is
I now right ho ar u doing
For the printed pieces that are similar but mismatched, this is intentional (although frustrating). Lego often updates printed elements and when they do, they just start putting them in sets that called for the previous design. If you purchase a set that has been in production for a long time, like assembly square, you will get dials, clocks, etc. that are updated designs while the instructions will not match.
Imagine not knowing about this and spending hours trying to find the right pieces. (I know I would've made that mistake without your reply, so thank you)
the "mistakes" infuriated me until i read this.
#6 the minecraft one. doesn't seem like a mistake so much as the photographer opting to move the piece for visibility in the shot, otherwise its largely obscuring the flower from that angle. sometimes you have to do things like that for clarity and considering that the angle is optimal for everything else from a composition standpoint this would have been the best solution
It also show that the flower is growing on a sand/grass block hybrid.
Exactly what I thought, you wouldn’t be able to see it from that angle if they didn’t move it
I have seen this kind of minor mismatches on the box art for several Lego sets, mainly small to mid-sized sets with several different components. Often the box art tries to show-off all the components in a single photo, and if this implies having to do slight alterations and/or move some stuff around, often they will.
I actually have the Jungle Dragon set, and I personally decided to follow the box art, because the daggers in question made the figure very front heavy, so by flipping the blades down it assisted the figure in standing.
Yeah mustve been for photos
There's a bit more to that buggy one, there's more than the duped spoiler.
Infact there back end seems to be duped almost entirely. Two of the full spoilers, and an extra mini technic gear, and the bent arms for the technic beams.
Went back and forth on the image after it to make sure I wasn't going crazy!
Actually, *the entire image* is duplicated. Note the three seats, the extra side bumpers, the two steering gears on top, the double sets of red tubes in front... everything is duped!
I have a correction for the 60p42 Police set about the kickstands. On the front image, the kick stands are there, if you look closely, just on the right side of the bikes. In the instructions, they show the kickstands being put on the left side of the bikes. Still an error, just incorrectly identified.
This is at 5:09.
Also, #10 looks to be another case of updated prints compared to the product image.
Note the large yellow plates to be added in step 12 of the second model of set 8040 (on page 13 of the instructions)... And I would love if more older sets be included in your videos. Mistakes did happen back then, too.
you can see at 5:11 that the bikes actually have the kickstand, it's just on the other side of the bike and hidden by most of it.
you can spot the end of the pneumatic t-piece in bluish gray peeking out between the axle holes.
the pice at 6:10 is not a mistake, it's a redesign of the classic 1x2 tile with dials that was used in the instructions and promo pictures. it was just introduced when the production of the Ecto-1 finished
7:00 It's not just the spoiler that's been layered. The entire model image has been duplicated and layered!
Yeah when it showed step 41 i was like that is not what i saw in step 39
I can't even come up with enough words to complement the absolutely INSANE skills that went into creating this. Simply AMAZING!!!
5:09 they actually do have kickstands. They are just on the other side of the bike.
In fact, you can see part of the light gray rod piece between the two openings. Still, they technically are on the wrong side.
My guess is that they either photographed it and later had the picture mirrored to fit the box art better, or they put the kickstands on the wrong side.
dang thanks these will come in handy😎
The Ecto-1 has three printed pieces that are different from the instructions. Including the speedometer, and a clock.
I’m building the dr strange sanctum sanctorum right now and I’ve noticed a few weird things. There’s some cone pieces in the first bag that have yet to be used in the build so far after bag 13, a spare piece from bag 8 ended up being mandatory for bag 9, and one part of the set is 4 jewel pieces broken off from a plastic circle, and one step shows placing one gem on its own, before the next page shows breaking the other 3 off from the circle bit.
Love ur vids
I love these videos keep up the good work
7:57 I was about to have a shock attack because out of these 15 sets this is the only one I own and already built and thought I’d have to restart.
The ice cream truck police chase set (60314) there is a mistake on book 1 on page 13, it tells you to get a 2 x 2 white flat piece but I doesn't tell you where to put it. On the next page (page 14) it magically appears on the atm machine. Hopefully this makes sense lol, I tried my hardest to explain it.
I have a mistake in one of my Lego instruction books. I’ll email it to you to use in another part of this series
Oh yes! I always look forward to these type of videos!
When there is a discrepancy, I don't follow the box or the instructions. I follow my heart.
I have kept every single instruction book i have ever had in a bag and now i have to check.
3:37 Not certain if I would consider that an error. It's just that if they followed the instructions the plant would be hard to see on the front of the bag and it might look like you're getting less.
I found a mistake in the new jazz club. To finish bag 12’s steps you actually need to use pieces from bag 13. Found that out after 30 minutes of tearing apart my desk area lol.
Biggest mistakes I've seen is my sets missing parts that make it impossible to finish building the set. I started collecting Legos again last year and this has already happened to me 3 times now. Idk if I'm just unlucky or what but it blows my mind that this happens this often.
#2 has never affected me because it took me until this year after turning 20 years old, that the bag numbers actually get built in that order. My entire life, I've built Millennium Falcons, Lion Temples, etc by opening every single bag all at once and throwing them all into a massive a couple separated piles.
If I worked at lego making instructions I’d be sweating bullets knowing that the internet would point out even the most minor of mistakes
#10 is also in another set. Either the Technic Skid Steer Loader or another one I own, I, can't remember exactly, but the same thing happened to me once. I'll keep you updated if I figure it out lol
Jep, Lego updated a few of these prints in early 2021 and you could find either new or old versions in several sets with the instructions still showing the old ones.
Nice video
Amazing video as always!
My old set 8877 Vladek’s Dark Fortress was actually missing a black 1x16 (part 2465) brick. It was to be used as a support piece over the gate. One of the only times I had a lego piece missing and i’ve never forgotten it.
ITS BACK FINALLY
there is also the minecraft creeper ambush. the box shows the poppy and jumper on a different spot.
I've had 2 lego bags with other smaller bags fused to the bigger bag in side between the top
I found a major mistake in most lego star wars set.
Most sets from the sequels come with a Rey minifigure.
You brought back a lot of memories when you pointed out the mistake on the technic buggy. I had seen it as well but you don't really care about things like that when you're 9
I had two of these sets, but i never noticed those mistakes! It takes a lot of attention to notice these things! Nice job fellow subscribers for noticing these minuscule details! And also thanks SpitBrix for the video!
1:50 Ah, yes, the CAD man was overwhelmed that day.
The fiat 500 blue lego set (77942), in step 76, says to put on two 1×1 round studs. However, it only says where to put one of them (on a technic pin on a stick). (The other stud in the next step -77- appears in its place behind the sticks between the seats. This stud only appears in this step then disappears for the next few steps until it's covered up.)
In the next step the stud thats supposed to go on the technic pin doesn't appear there, and the mistake is only fixed by step 158. (The stud does appear by steps 78 and 141, which are both the last steps of the bags (1&2). It appears and disappears multiple times). In the yellow fiat 500 (10271) you can see what is supposed to happen, the mistake is only by the blue fiat 500.
Two mistakes in the same step.
The interesting part is that lego just used the same things for the set and just changed the color. But they added a mistake too...
The set number for the blue fiat is 77942, the set number for the yellow fiat is 10271.
i didn’t even realise that the one 60042 my bro own had a mistake..
Amazing video thank you
One hour ago, the series is back yasss
absolutely love the video and channel. Liked and subscribed!
1:00 this wouldnt have tripped me up cause ever since i was a kid i would open all the bags and dump everything and sort the pieces before i built anything.
I was going back through the set 75300 Tie Fighter instructions to check out that error you mentioned and in the process discovered another one in pretty much the same steps/area. Step 25 has two 2x3 plates that show up out of nowhere and they get called for in step 28 (same step that that 1x4 plate shows up out of nowhere)
I don’t think I would’ve noticed the first one 😭
The part where the bags get mixed up when be a problem for me because I'm a menace and open all the bags at once
best lego channel
I actually noticed the Castle mistake while I was building it a few months ago and I immediately sent it to my friends. Thought I was going crazy for a minute XD
1) most of these do not break the rules
2) I am convinced the only reason people even mention these issues: it has to do with the overall concept that Lego is so thorough a simple instruction element is shocking. As a clever TH-camr pointed out how the precision is appreciated dispite: "realising the Legos are going straight in my mouth." ~CountDoucheula (Simply the name of the OP)
"breaking the rules" is just a fun way of saying "Lego made a mistake"
you have to watch the first video to understand why the series is called this way - as those were even more absurd errors of builds that are physically impossible :)
Oh, I guess you’re right. I do remember expecting this video to contain placement errors, but it’s mostly just printing and other instruction book errors (some of which you could call impossible-building, though).
Wait, we’re you correcting me or the other guy?
Oh wow, I have the last three of the sets shown and haven't noticed those mistakes.
I wonder if someone puts these mistakes in deliberately just to see if anyone will notice.
For that Ninjago Jungle Dragon set, I'd follow the box myself. Those weapons are likely supposed to be Kama, a traditional Japanese farming tool often used as a weapon by ninjas.
Bro i have never thought i will see a video minutes after its posted 🍀
The Minecraft poly bag one has one explanation Incan think of. The image of the build on the bag is shown at an angle that would obscure the flower from view if it were in the same spot as in the instructions, so they moved it to a spot where it would be more visible.
"should you follow the box or the instructions in this case?"
yes
Oh no, a missprint on a bag, dude I'm from Poland and sets produced for Poland, no matter how big are they, don't have any numbers on bags. I once got a 2k piece technic set and had to search for pieces in a giant pile because the bags weren't numbered
My Porg set had a duplicate bag and was missing another bag!
Lego just sent me a bricks and pieces order for the entire bag.
I hope everyone who faces these mistakes got a laugh out of them later on.
That castle set has another error. At some point when building the castle a piece suddenly appears on the model a couple pages before you're told to attach it. I want to say it was a dark grey 2x2 brick, but I can't say for certain. Definitely caused me a bit of confusion.
Thanks for that alert, i was planning on getting that set soon. I'll make sure to pay closer attention to the instructions more closely than I usually do when i do get it.
I build my Legos like I did when I was a kid. Dump all bags into the box and shuffle through it
I'm building the AT-AT and I just spotted that error yesterday! 😅
Also, I had one missing piece on a bag and one extra piece that I didn't need. Contacted Lego and got it sorted in a week. Top quality customer service from them 😉
How do I have most of these sets and have never seen these mistakes till now, when going through the instructions 😂🔥
The school set has kids named Billy and Madison. Nice reference, Lego.
4:49 was the first lego set i ever got when i was younger
I also already had the Red Creatures set and never noticed.
I found the same problem in set 60095 when building the mini-sub as you did when making set 10274, with the different printed tile.
I recently bought the lego tallneck, the instructions still had the faulty ratchet joint head placement error, I thought they had fixed that instruction misprint as I bought this set last Thursday.
I like that the three last ones has a dragon on it.
The lego gandalf the grey brick headz set had two errors in the same book/build. One out of order build direction and one misnumbering the amount of pieces needed for a section.
#7 is not a mistake. Stickers (and box art, book covers, etc. too for that matter) are printed with overflow outside the used area, so there are no "white lines" or other misalignment issues. Here it's also visible that the print has an overflow of about 1 mm. The stickers were then taken off and put back on (or alternatively, shifted during transport). It's impossible that the lines ON the sticker and those on the overflow are printed in a way that they do not match. It would require infinite alignment precision.
There's also a few construction rule-breaks in the AT-AT set, but they're done intentionally to increase structural integrity at the expense of not being able to disassemble those portions of the model.
I got a Lego ninjago set a long long long time ago, Kai’s fire bike, the one that got made into a Lego dimension’s mini. It was supposed to come with a technic brick with 2 axle ports and a technic peg hole, but it didn’t. It was crucial to the gimmick and thankfully I had a spare in my collection
at 5:09 you can see the kickstand, its just on the opposite side of the bike. you can see the light bluish gray rod sticking through the axle hole on the opposite side for both bikes.
I've never had Lego make a mistake with any of my sets. I did get an extra pair of legs for a clone trooper once, but I wouldn't consider that a mistake so much as a happy accident
I am kinda dissapointed I didn't get the cool looking piece on my Ecto-1...
Now seeing it makes it look 10 times better.
What’s worse then miss numbered bags is sets with no bag 1 completely
The Buggy on Mistake 12 is actually duplicated in its entirety, you can see the duplicate chair and all sorts.
also how do you know there is no kick stand on the other side?
5:15?
Not sure if it counts but on step 66 of the 8169, Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4. it makes you place a sticker over 2 parts, connecting them!
In the 42149 alt instructions.
Step 1 is showing 2 black pegs.
But in step 3, they are gone.
In step 5, they are back, on a sub-assembly.
5:44 I have Ecto-1 and Aston martin DB5, they are in a row on that vid, they both have print mistakes, + they are both technically creator expert cars.
All the channels i subscribe to, their videos realeses when I’m at school
I noticed a strange inconsistency on the recent christmas tree multibuild set, specifically with the orientation of the candles and star between the box and instructions. The candle flames are obviously the wrong way on the bottom of the big tree on the box and, according to the instructions, the small star is actually upside down on the top of the big tree. I guess being a multibuild leaves it more open to those sort of mistakes or something.
I just recently bought the
lego tie fighter and saw this mistake, I thought that i had made a mistake but now i know I did't.
i used to have this LEGO space shuttle with launch pad (set 6339), that also had some steps reversed, and i think the last page that shows all the blocks was misprinted with red and blue lines around the blocks, but i don't have that set anymore
I had the last set, now the pieces are everywhere, but I'll probably buy it 3 more times, to display all 3 creatures, i love lego creator
I think the reason why they moved the flower to beside the pillar for the image on the Lego Minecraft bag is so it could be seen and not hidden by the dock
Two mistakes in the lego Optimus Prime set pointed out by youtuber Jobbythehong. The sticker placement on Optimus Upper legs are out on upside-down & the instructions show that Optimus knees have a bend, they do not.
9398 4x4 crawler - photo on the box, front of the bridge vs. the model itself: 2L pepr con vs. L shape con
42100 Liebherr excavator - 1) blueprint vs. instruction/model itsel: tubes on the top of the boom are not threaded vs. treaded, 2) Contol+ blueprint vs model: mirror image
They reverse the wrong order and you forget the number is also reverse
The misprint at 6:56 isn't just the spoiler being duplicated, but it appears like the entire car has been copied over itself
The one that gripes me the most is the stickers for the Dodge dragster set. The bees are backwards
The UCS Ecto actually has 3 printed tile differences. The second is the control panel near the gunners seat. The third are the 1x1 rounds are different.
Havent finished the video yet but in the ski resort set there was a pretty big mistake in the second book iirc, on the first floor of the building was either a medical station or a coffee shop, the other being on the second floor, and for the one on the second floor it had the interior of the first floor which was pretty dang confusing at first
I think with the minecraft dock one they wanted the flower to be visible in the picture on the box.
Definitely going through my instructions i have a lot of sets
I love your videos
About the technic buggy, the entire image is printed twice, not just the spoiler.
