The potential they have is in print making. I am trying to explore that
We bought a few sets at the start. The bracelets were just not pretty enough and you don't want to risk losing your favourite tiles. My children seem to think they are a great sensory toy but rice is cheaper. I'd like to buy the letters before they go for good.
Today i bought a DOTS set for the first time. Ive had a lot of interest in how many things i can make
Such a shame theyre discontinued...
I feel very lucky to own this set now, haha
I literally just got back into Lego this last week... My local pre-owned Lego store sells a couple of small Dots sets, which I bought today... I absolutely love them. I am SO upset to learn they got completely cancelled last year!!! That is so sad. I'm obsessed with tile pieces and I loved the idea of making pixel art type creations with them, Dots was right up my alley. Guess I'm just SOL though!
Are you telling me the minute I decide to get back into DOTS they get cancelled? Dude I bought tons back when they first released I’m so sad (also I can still order sets on Amazon apparently??) EDIT: I just found Disney AND Harry Potter dots sets?? These look brand new???
They're a retired range, but you can still buy them in plenty of places. The Harry Potter and Disney sets only came out in 2023 so loads of them still available. There will not be any new dots sets ever again sadly.
Well done video! It’s a shame that Dots is going away, however I can see why. Personally, I didn’t know a single person who owned or was interested in Dots. Not even my little cousins who love Lego knew what it was. It reminds me of the discontinuation of Vidyo, where the price points, disinterest and lack of marketing led people elsewhere.
Yeah it was a real hit or miss product, like you say in regards Vidyo too, I just think they judged the market incorrectly and the price is definitely another problem. LEGO is just too expensive compared with other craft toys.
I do like the DOTs range, I love the letters sets, and the desk tidies, but otherwise its very limited. And you're right, I know barely anyone who is a big fan, and for sure kids aren't that fussed with it either.

WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY
@@Karmanthegamer About two months after posting this comment, I went over to my cousin’s house again and saw that his kids got “The Boombox” Vidiyo set. 💀
@@sciencepuptheamericanjoe5812 but now you know someone who likes dots
Because they're not selling. It's pretty simple.
did they change their minds about that? It's april and I just saw a commercial for them for the first time ._.

Thanks for sharing this
I got fascinated with it and was checking is it worth buying it off market
This looks too tiny pieces will bring more clutter
I'm just now getting into these :( I'm so sad
There are a few Harry Potter dots sets 🧐 (and Disney / Micky & Minnie mouse)
Because this Lego man has 4 dots on each corner of the square lego man
Very sad
Jk
The sets should have included some regular 1x1 and 1x4 plates so the designs could be more three dimensional.
They really limited their potential audience by only including tiles, and no pieces that could be useful for regular LEGO building.
Yes quite agree, 1x1 plates available in a variety of colours alongside the tiles would have been fantastic, probably have put the price up too much with an increase in part count etc, but it would have been cool. They could have done more 3d art style sets with 1x1 plates like you say. But they were all in on that crafting market of 7-12 yr girls.
I use tiles all the time, so I love the sets and still pick them up when I see them, especially for the corner tiles in various colours
I went and bought myself some of the Extra DOTS bags just for the cool star and gem pieces, I wanted to wait a while to get some of the DOTS series as they just weren't first priority sets to me, but I didn't know they would be discontinued.. :(
Yeah I still see some of the sets in a few stores but it won't be long before they're all gone.
I also got a few extra bags for the printed tiles, as they're quite unique.
Such an interesting theme but unfortunately the target market just didn't take to it 😔
