I have to say the lack of leg printing on the cyclops to me is far more frustrating than the rogue hair piece. The rogue hair piece at least had the white printing and is a fine (if very basic) representation for the character. The cyclops mini figure just looks so plain and the blue is really oversaturated, especially considering the blue and yellow dual molded legs are often used for swimming costumes and could easily be reused somewhere else
I kind of wish the X jet was bigger. If it was bigger, you could justify the price AND they could have added extra components like an opening panel on the bottom of the xjet for the characters to exit. As well as make the seating cabin wider with more seats and more characters to be included in the set.
@12:43 Hearing that idea really makes me wish LEGO was able to dedicate an entire cmf to X-Men 97. Despite how grateful I am to get an actual X-Men set again, these minifigures have so much potential that just aren't being met here.
@@ArceePrimes Without a doubt they're amazing but it's the small things they couldn't add like special hairpieces or dual molding legs that brings them down
Thanks for reminding me the X-Mansion is supposed to come out as well, I was debating on getting this set but since most of the minifigures are likely to be reused I’ll just wait
Lego is just full of inconsistencies. We're not allowed to ask questions. And LAN are the only people that could voices through to the company, besides people unanimously stop buying lego
I honestly think rogue’s hair being more like comic rogue is fine because that’s really the only difference between comic rogue and show rogue. This set looks cool and I’m happy X-men 97 gives Lego an excuse to finally do more comic book style X-men sets but that price is insane. Hopefully we get more sets for this line that are better priced. Also getting;g trial of magneto outfit rocks
I feel like they could have fixed the magneto design by making his torso and legs black and used magenta as highlights to match the cartoon style more, or even just add dark brownish purple colour to get more depth
Magneto’s outfit is the one he wears when he joins the X-men after Professor X leaves. That’s why he no longer needs the helmet but yeah not my favorite Magneto outfit.
To justify the price, they shouldve either put more minifigures or a sentinel in the set. Been hoping to see a mystique, apocalypse, or mister sinister minifigure. Alas, Lego hates making minifigs for villains that have never gotten one yet. When will they give us stuff that fans truly want?
Lego X Jet is less expensive than the Hoopty and a better set overall (plus an extra mini figure). I remember Magneto wearing the pink (or magenta) costume more from the comic books than from the show.
So torn, obviously this price is bad so I don’t wanna rush to buy it and let lego think that price point is justified but I know if we all let it sit and go on sale they’ll say “oh clearly no one wants x men so we aren’t making anymore”
So excited to get this set!!! The price is disappointing☹the set is amazing though. You were talking about having a new hair piece for Rogue and i totally agree but would the Agatha hair piece fit in the jet?
Rogues hair is very accurate for ‘97. If you want the design from the original show you’d be right about the other hair piece but this is accurate to ‘97
I’m staring at concept art and toys. Her hair is still messy, it’s white all on the top not just a streak. And she has hair coming down onto her torso on both sides. No, this piece is not accurate at all.
@@Ashnflash agree to disagree I guess 🤷🏻♂️ the marvel legend here has hair on one side and I’d say this piece is pretty accurate. I will give you it need more white on top
We need a gambit minifig, we have never had an official gambit minifig. He always gets ignored, he is in a lego marvel game but doesn't have a minifig, I cry myself to sleep knowing my favorite superhero isn't in LEGO form
I'm so conflicted cause I really want this set as an X-Men fanboy, it has my favourite Cyclops outfit and finally a Rogue. But I hate we're getting Wolverine and Magneto again, especially with a downgraded Wolverine. Cyclops is massively disappointing cause of the leg printing (lack of), the price is crazy, and I would rather not buy it, but I have no idea what the X-Mansion is supposed to include, and if any of these guys will get glow ups.
Bought the set last week and built it last night. Super cool wish it had other X-men in the box. I had some left over styrofoam and carved it out to fit the X-jet. I put it back in the box so it can be a collectible on the shelf. If you have the cash I recommend it.
I think a problem I have is that 3 of the 4 minifigures are just repeated from the old set. Like, do we really need Wolverine? Didn't he just get a mech set? Why not have Gambit? Or Jean Grey?
I would bring in X-Men cmf in this set throw out wolverine body for the cmf one keep the set wolverine head with cmf head you have different expressions you got yourself pretty good x men set
I've gotten used to Rogue's hairpiece by now, since her hair is shorter in 97. I loved her big frizzy hair in the original series, but a LEGO minifigure of a Superhero with an unorthodox hair mold is better than no minifigure at all.
I'm a huge X-men and lego fan, and I don't think I'll buy this unless it's 50% off or more. This being more expensive than the old one and not having a sentinel is just a massive L. I would want it if it was more akin to the recent quintet in size, and actually be able to fit mini figures inside standing up, and have the boarding ramp. The mini figs being lackluster is the kicker, I just don't understand this set.
I get the idea of putting Rogue in the CMF intrad of Wolverine for a more detailed Rogue, but that means we would've gotten a far inferior Wolverine and he is the more popular character. Id much rather have a detailed Wolverine over Rogue. But they shouldn't have added Logan in this set and instead put in Jean or Gambit
I almost bought this set because it was in the wrong spot sitting in a 34.99 place. Later down the aisle i seen more of them on the shelf for 85, i put it back. Thats too much money.
@@IndianaJakenot always by Lego but Walmart and target put stuff on sale a lot. Walmart is selling the Ironman Armory for 40$ which is less then half it’s MSRP. If this set sells as poorly it’ll happen for this too.
I have the original X-Jet set and while I think it's superior in to this set I think the Blackbird design in this set looks just a bit better and more accurate. The figures are nice designs although I think one of the figure *cough, cough* Wolverine could have been some else like I dunno Gambit. While this set has some pretty decent figures and a good build I still don't think it's quite worth the price so I probably will be wait until the set goes on sale before I would buy it.
I like the new hair piece for you Ash, though I will need some getting used to it because I’ve watched your channel since almost the very beginning. Since I saw the infinity war cmf. You looked different (sigfig wise) and sounded different. Originally you were facing the side more and waving, then you changed it to facing forward, then with a bigger smile, and now with a new hair piece
Idk why people are mad we’re getting this version of Magneto instead of the classic costume? They literally already made that figure in 2012 go buy it if you want it. It’s cool to get new versions of characters with all their different looks and designs!
I used my points to get this but after this review hearing that there’s an x mansion coming out with all these figures I’m having buyers remorse. I have the other X-jet and I’m pretty sure that had more seats as well. It’s stores right now so I’m not too sure.
The figures being in the X-Mansion is just a theory going off what happened with the Quinjet. So nothing confirmed yet. But if you wait until then, the Jet will be on sale by then anyways if someone is exclusive here.
Boy just as I was thinking Im finally off the LEGO hold... X-MEN COME IN! But I'm somewhat disappointed - Wolverine's minifig is not amazing, and I would have preferred to have the original Magneto with helmet. Rogue & Cyclops are spot on!
Ok i get it this is for commercial mass sale...but u can totally make it more upto scale by disconnecting the mid section after the second cockpit and add a bit wider multi seater cabin or cargo bay where the other members can sit...i mean its a 2024 set n still lacks retractable landing gears and can only fit 4 figs....design n decals are amazing buttttt still short off the mark. 🎉
Is the cowl painted better? The CMF wolverine cowl has awful black overspray towards the nose on all 3 I have. Also show accuracy is not a reason for a worse fig especially cus accuracy only matters to Lego when it’s convenient/cheaper for them (shown with rouge)
It's weird because usually Lego is cheaper in the US compared to Australia but I compared the prices and the Australian price is $100 AUD which equals about $68 USD so I'm very confused on why there is such a big price increase in the US.
I would’ve gotten this set day 1 with my other 4 Jan 1st purchases, but that price is just atrocious! It should cost half that! What were you thinking Lego!?!?!? I still want the set but I refuse to pay full price for it.
It’s not based off the show it’s based off the comic because the magneto figure had the same design as the original uncanny X-Men comics which did not appear in the show
@@CaleAdams gotchya! I’m just fed up with people buying mediocre and/or overpriced sets then complaining it doesn’t get better. As long as people keep paying Lego will keep doing it.
I can’t believe how much this is for the small amount of pieces, I’ll wait til it goes down to 60 at least, the minifigs are awesome but it’s no excuse when it’s that expensive
I think you got it wrong way round, that wolverine in the set I would guess is the version 1 and the cmf is version 2. It's going to be a longer process to design the jet etc then a minifig and it would make more sense for the cmf designers to tinker with a minifig.
@Ashnflash I'm just going to say that it's probably a much longer lead time on a set than a cmf, to me it looks like the cmf is a later or improved version of the fig and it's by chance that the cmf came out before the set.
I wish there’d be more printed pieces n less stickers at that price.. the Wolverine also seems like a big downgrade from the blind bag series and should have been Gene or Gambet for sure
"...he threw the jet towards his brother and it directly puntured his left eyeball, he could be permanently blind on one side for life now because of the pointy part they used for the tip..." I can see a lawsuit waiting to happen with this set. Better buy it now before it's banned.

2024TH LEGO X-MEN X-JET SET REVIEW 👌 ASHNFLASH
Disney tax, marvel tax, 97 tax
Well you see, Lego enjoys money, however, they don’t know how to make it, because they’d probably make more money if they made the set cheaper.
Disney. Pure and simple. City sets actually have sane price points.
I feel like we would be more forgiving of the Magento design if it had the helmet and the hair piece.
yeah and since this set is based on the new Disney show it makes me nervous that when we see Magneto in the movies again he's not gonna have a helmet
Yeah
I think it’s fun to have this strange outfit. But again, it’s based on the show’s design so it has nothing to do with LEGO
He is in this outfit now in comics he's good guy now
They already made figures for the regular version
If they had given Wolverine blue pointy pouldrons to account for the lack of arm printings, the general reaction would've been pretty different
Agree those pauldrons in light blue are long overdue for the cmf wolverine
I honestly think rogue’s hair being more like comic rogue is fine because that’s really the only difference between comic rogue and show rogue. This set looks cool and I’m happy X-men 97 gives Lego an excuse to finally do more comic book style X-men sets but that price is insane. Hopefully we get more sets for this line that are better priced. Also getting;g trial of magneto outfit rocks
This set looks awesome! Rogue looks cool! Interesting haircut you made Ash
I feel like they could have fixed the magneto design by making his torso and legs black and used magenta as highlights to match the cartoon style more, or even just add dark brownish purple colour to get more depth
Sadly there is no dark purple colour. But that’s an interesting idea about the black.
Magneto’s outfit is the one he wears when he joins the X-men after Professor X leaves. That’s why he no longer needs the helmet but yeah not my favorite Magneto outfit.
You mentioned an X-Mansion at the end? Is there any leaks or anything of that happening, I haven’t heard about it so I’m being cautiously optimistic.
I’m glad I got the CMF Wolverine because I had a feeling he would be different in this set and NOW even a new face!
To justify the price, they shouldve either put more minifigures or a sentinel in the set. Been hoping to see a mystique, apocalypse, or mister sinister minifigure. Alas, Lego hates making minifigs for villains that have never gotten one yet. When will they give us stuff that fans truly want?
I dig the new cut, Ashnflash
Thank you!
I'm so excited to go get this set and the Sandman set tomorrow, even though it's way too expensive.
Lego X Jet is less expensive than the Hoopty and a better set overall (plus an extra mini figure). I remember Magneto wearing the pink (or magenta) costume more from the comic books than from the show.
85€ for 350 pieces is nothing else but to laugh and cry about. This is an 35€ set at best.
So torn, obviously this price is bad so I don’t wanna rush to buy it and let lego think that price point is justified but I know if we all let it sit and go on sale they’ll say “oh clearly no one wants x men so we aren’t making anymore”

You have the stud container held wrong. The pieces with the little holes are side pieces. Place it so they are on top. Won't fall out again.
This is such a great set, but oh my stars and garters, It did NOT need to be this expensive. I just hope we'll get more X-Men sets later on.

They need to make more for x-men 97. They should do a blind bag series with characters from 97 and TAS.
I don’t mind the hair piece, it’s cool to have rouge here
Yes, it’s more important to have her here.
I think a problem I have is that 3 of the 4 minifigures are just repeated from the old set. Like, do we really need Wolverine? Didn't he just get a mech set? Why not have Gambit? Or Jean Grey?
Hot damn! I didnt know this was coming out! I gotta get one
There’s also a rumoured X-Mansion for this year !
Magneto reminds me of a WWE wrestler for some reason.
Yeah I get that vibe too. Like he's in a really cheap costume in the early days of the WWE.
I found it at Walmart before Christmas and had it in my cart before I realized it was $85
Ahahha ya crazy. Depending on the Walmart, some already had it marked down 40%
I would bring in X-Men cmf in this set throw out wolverine body for the cmf one keep the set wolverine head with cmf head you have different expressions you got yourself pretty good x men set

Man so many stickers for the price!
Lego should have included Storm & Gambit as mini figures in the set as well
I think the hair piece it more accurate to the new animation style the curly one is kinda more like the classic but definitely would look better
Need this one once it goes on sale!
Ya for sure! Just wait I think

I think that LEGO missed the memo that Magneto is not the enemy, but the new Headmaster of the Xavier Institute
But he is in the team in this set right?
I can see them using the Magneto faceprint on Saruman the White
tiny complaint but i would have loved a stand like some the other marvel ships weve gotten recently

The 2014 X-Jet had the same number of seats as the 2024 one.

Here in New Zealand we are paying $109NZD which is strange as we never run in line with Canada, when you say show is it the 1990s Fox cartoon series?
New Year, new HAIR!!!
Should've dropped Wolverine for literally anyone else. Wolverine already gets enough special treatment.
12:25 wait wait wait...THE MANSION? is it official?
No but a lot of leakers have leaked it so it’s basically official but not from Lego themselves
If you want to have more accurate hair for Rogue, then you could grab Agatha's hair and paint the top part silver.
They never should've put any xmen in the cmf. They could hold their own series themselves.
New hair cut for the sig figs fascinating

Thank you ❤️
I’m going to get one no matter what.
Whys Scott's yellow trunks missing and yellow boots colouring? I dnt like magneto would have preferred a classic look with helmet tbh. Price is scary
Still have the OG X-Men Blackbird with a Sentinel, Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm and Magneto. Seems like a nicer set than this newer one.
Ok i get it this is for commercial mass sale...but u can totally make it more upto scale by disconnecting the mid section after the second cockpit and add a bit wider multi seater cabin or cargo bay where the other members can sit...i mean its a 2024 set n still lacks retractable landing gears and can only fit 4 figs....design n decals are amazing buttttt still short off the mark. 🎉
just wondering, but can you ask LEGO to make a Thor construction figure please!
Honestly, I think they should have switched Wolverine out for Jean Grey, since Storm, Beast and Wolverine are already in the CMF series.

Wait. Where was this set on sale already?
I wish I had the Rogue minifigure.
I think you got it wrong way round, that wolverine in the set I would guess is the version 1 and the cmf is version 2. It's going to be a longer process to design the jet etc then a minifig and it would make more sense for the cmf designers to tinker with a minifig.
CMF series are also designed long in advance or alongside these sets. That’s how Tiana is able to appear in the castle or Wolverine here.
@Ashnflash I'm just going to say that it's probably a much longer lead time on a set than a cmf, to me it looks like the cmf is a later or improved version of the fig and it's by chance that the cmf came out before the set.
This so eeeeeeasily can be used as a comic set
I hate that Magneto design so much, but LEGO did a good job making it a minifigure.
Happy new year!

Finally ordered this. Please don’t be a mistake for me.

I love the X-men but these figures look really messy to me except from magneto the printing just looks so off
I wish there’d be more printed pieces n less stickers at that price.. the Wolverine also seems like a big downgrade from the blind bag series and should have been Gene or Gambet for sure
Feel like Jean grey or gambit should've been here instead of wolverine cosbdiering they play a much more major role
I need it
Be honest, you got this set along with the x men cmf minifigs to go with it
