Wait I didn't know the Ace card was a sticker too. Insane when they already have a tile from the CMF Jester. I am sure there were many limitations around what they could do budget wise, but I soooo wish this had just been a $500 set or nothing if this is what was going to be the end result. I feel like they tried to aim for a middle sweet spot that was never going to exist with something of this magnitude.
I’m glad you enjoyed it. LEGO is a lot like art, video games, movies, music… it’s subjective. Given the price, it didn’t sit right with me. If it had been $100 cheaper, I would have enjoyed the final product more.
Waiting that long and being offered a set at that price for what we got was part of the let down. At $200-$250 the set is fine. Unfortunately, nothing during the build gave me tingles like other LEGO sets have done. However, this is just my opinion. Please feel free to decide for yourself. 🙂
Lego prices are already way out of line with the best competing brands, but here it was especially egregious, given the weakness of the set. It could/should have been amazing. But the asking price for this one is insane.
That energy piece used with Gambit isn’t even a new piece, it was introduced with some recent Ninjago sets in trans-red. They really fumbled with this one.🤦♂️
I couldn’t believe how quickly this set comes together too, built the whole thing in like 6 or 7 hours.
You said it perfectly. The price vs what we get for that price is severely misaligned.
I feel like they couldve done something with the mansion like they did with the home alone house but did not
Love the style of this one, Zach! Some really good points on this set. A bit of a shame for the price fo sho.
