Sets like this make me wish Lego did an Architecture line for Star Wars. I have no use for a clumsy, inaccurate replica of Jabba's Palace with a missing dollhouse wall, but I'd buy a smaller, reasonably accurate shelf ornament instead.
Thankfully, you can pick this up at Costco for $80- my local one has had a full pallet of these at that price for over a week now!
This set looks really good. The only issue most people have is the roof. I personally don’t care but would rather have the roof.
What nobody seems to realize is that the throne room doesn't have the dome for its roof. It's underground. WAY underground. Also microscopic compared to the dome.
@@JANGsLEGOreviews oh wait that’s right I fell dumb not realizing that it’s been fact since return of the jedi!
@@JANGsLEGOreviews That may be so, but it’s clear that the backside of the set is aiming to create a facade of the palace in its whole. Without the roof, it looks incomplete.
I wouldn’t put it past them to release a separate bacta tank room set that attaches to the top to complete the look, but for the price of this set I would have rather it be included from the get-go.
I also think its non-inclusion makes sense considering the light controversy with the last version of this set. I honestly don't really see what the issue was with that but I understand if lego wants to distance themselves from that old design because of it.
@@JANGsLEGOreviews i mean yeah, but it's more from a displaybility point of view, can sacrifice accuracy for making it look better to the eye imo, still like it, easy to mod
Boba Fett: "Don't nobody go in the "Throne Room" for 35-45 minutes!!!"
Somebody open a window!
I actually like the trone sliding out fully, makes it easy to just display the throne if you want to disassemble the set. Still gives you the context behind the show if you low on space and just bought the set for figures to display
I like it sliding out fully too, I just don't like that it won't stay in. I just wanted a clip to hold it in place until you want it to come out.
this feels like a set future fans will really want, much like the last palace we got. such a shame the price is so high, makes fans who have the opportunity to buy it not want to
This looks ok, but the last one just looked so much more substantial. The tower was much taller and the exterior was much better looking and more accurate too.
The Theelin Dancer figure is the star of the set. She has such beautiful detail. Espically the cheast and back print with the almost "holographic" designs
Ik alot of people don't like this set, but I absolutely love it.
I wish the side sections were able to swing around to the front of the throne room, even if that wouldn't be accurate to the show.
I agree, its a nice set, not a great set, but a nice set. However, it is terribly overpriced, which makes it a 'needs to be on a special' to get set.
I wish Lucasfilm could have given more information to LEGO about this setting. Most of what's here is not relevant to the show. Although, I'd probably rather have those classic alien figures than figures of the Mods anyway.
Like the mix of minifigs. The basic idea is great for a set. The folding rooms/walls don't do it for me. But not bad for a set that Disney wouldn't have fully explained.
I love when you have to wait to get home to watch the review since you get the notification and it doesn't disappoint (it never does as a matter of fact)
I adore the level of kitchen details only to be virtually invisible from the front
I remember years ago when we got Jabba's Palace which looked much bigger (and could be assembled with the Rancor Pit, I might add), this new Palace looks pretty nice, if a bit expensive, I'm sure it will probably be 25$ more here in Canada! Still, not a bad set, not perfect, no. Thanks for the review, Jang!
I agree on the color of Boba Fett's helmet. However, could the reason be that the darker green color they use is the same color as the markings on the helmet? So using a darker green would result in losing that detail.
thing is the markings on the helmet are now black (with the base helmet being the darker green), so the detail wouldn't be lost.
Great review as always. Love that we get an extra door droid printed piece.
I recently got this for 80 euros, and I think that's a really fitting price for this set. The build quality is really sold, and I'm not too bothered by how easy the throne slides out as it is just a display piece for me. I love the amount a variation in minifigures, some really unique (and for me personal new) ones. Yes, Boba Fett should have had his rearmored jetpack and helmet. Yes, Fennec should have come with her signature helmet. But even then I think this is worth picking up for 80 euros/dollars.
12:05 shots fired 😂
I haven't gotten the 2012 Jabba's Palace set. The Boba Fett's palace looks pretty cool. I'm not gonna lie, it looks cool.
Just bought this on sale for 60$, I think that was an amazing price! Can’t wait for it to arrive!
The Fennec minifigure's face in this set looks like Nyna Calixte from the Legacy comics.
I love ❤️ the review Jang keep up 🆙 the good videos I will get this nice 😊 LEGO videos Jang!!!!!!!!
Great video, I love the figures. I wish we would have gotten a Salacious Crumb fig with it
Looking forward to getting this but I will definitely wait for a discount.
In terms of the wider context I'm also fine with no dome. That additional height would be wasted space in a playset anyway, and the price would be even higher. I'd much rather see a usable side room like the booth in this set. In terms of aesthetics I don't think it detracts too much; it's pretty much impossible to do the palace justice at this scale to begin with so it's not a huge loss.
Another guard and maybe a droid (8D8!) would maybe justify the higher price.
Two years later, just now watching this video, and your Amazon link has this at the better price of $80. :) As someone who likes Lego more than Lego minifigs, I gotta say, for whatever reason, the minifigs to me are by far the highlight of this set after watching your review [though the lack of helmet for Fennic is weird and agree with the you on the bad choice of color for Fett's helmet/jetpack]. That dancer figure - that printing on the torso, hips and legs is amazing. When TLG puts effort into it, they can really get some amazing prints [Fennic as well looks spot on!]..
I wish I hadn't missed out on the original Jabba's Palace set - I think that's what is having me think about getting this one [plus I own so many sets from Tatooine, it feels like I should own this one as well....sigh...I really do need to purchase the winning lotto tickets. soon ;) ].
I never noticed to subtly on the dancer's printing. Great catch! I got super lucky and found this set mid February at Costco for $80. Instant purchase for me!
I personally only got it for the parts and figures. I plan on fully modding it to go into my tattooine moc
Great review Jang, love your vids as always, but wow this set really highlights how lego star wars sets have slipped over the years. This set is really rough for 100USD. The details on those side builds are rough.
Thanks. You are always the standard.
I'm so glad they went with the classic episode 6 gammorean guard look. They looked sooo much better than the ones in the show!
Boba's chest plate should also be printed in sand green to match the helmet and the jet pack. My guess is that they keep producing those pieces in sand green so the dark green printing on the helmet won't be in a new and different color.
Not planning to get this set myself but I really hope that Quarren shows up somewhere else soon
LEGO Star Wars 2022 9+ 75326 Boba Fett's Throme Room Set
I think the elephant in the room in terms of value is that Jabba isn't included in this set... Yes, I know that this is Mandalorian themed but it's still Jabba's Palace at the end of the day... Jabba's only ever been included in palaces and sail barges, so this was a wasted opportunity to give newer fans the Jabba figure (I am one of the lucky ones who got into Lego Star Wars around the Jabba and Rancor monster sets).
Nice review. Just scooped this up at $60 at Costco. To me a definitely pick up at $60.
looks like if you swap the hinge pieces around the other direction you could fold both sides in towards the throne
I got this set last night, I’m probably gonna build it tonight or tomorrow
I would change the minifigures so it was less scene specific. Boba, Fennec and Bib are fine but I would have preferred an extra Gamorrean guard and 8D8 instead of the other characters.
That "drink" looks suspiciously like blue milk. 😅
Haven't watch you stream in a while, did you change your lighting? (looks more orange-ish)
Super happy I got this set at Costco for $60 instead of $100, I would never pay $100 for it.
Got mine today at best buy for 69 bucks! Just wanted the minifigs and the throne to display, the rest of the build I could care less.
It just occurred to me that if they do a Boba Fett Castle then much like the Darth Vader Castle it will have to come with a bacta Tank.
Fett: This be my house now!
Try adding some Lemon Pledge to make it slide better. We use it to help in the Nerf community with blasters.
I didn’t like this set…. But you can get it at Costco right now (as of 4/27/22) for $60… so I picked it up. I still don’t think it’s a great set, but I like the minifigs so I picked it up. I have the 2012 Jabba’s Palace, so I’ll be opening for minifigs then parting out the set.
I do like this set. It is flawed, yes, but I’m okay with it. I found this at Costco for $80, and felt it was worth that price. I do not feel it is worth $100.
Just wanted to put this here. Jang said it would be great at $70, and I just got it for $70 from Walmart a few days ago. Reach for the stars everyone! :)
Costco has it for 80 instead of 100, I refused to pay retail for it so I definitely feel satisfied with that price
I was able to find this at costco for $70 so happy I got such a good deal on it cause it really is a cool set
Unfortunately, the palace itself could not convince me, which is why I took the parts for a Nevarro Cantina MOC (you can see it on my channel).
The minifigures are not that good too. But the set is a great parts donor if you buy the set cheaply used without figures. by the way nice review.
Wow! Tems face translates very well in lego
Great review as always Jang! Looking at this tan structure reminded me that I’ve not seen any reviews of the re-relaunch of the Harry Potter line from you- is this in protest to JK Rowling’s views? If so, mad respect.
It is. The sets have been looking fantastic and I respect the opinions of folks who side with the separation of art & artist, but I myself have seen too much lasting pain from the impact of the artist's words & actions that I personally choose not to continue to promote her art. I'm open to reconsidering this in the future if a lot more separation is made between the two.
@@JANGsLEGOreviews thats really cool to hear. I struggled with this greatly myself as I have been undertaking a huge custom Hogwarts castle build which I started before she began making these comments- I chose to put a PSA at the start of my video denouncing her views, and focused my praise on the artists who created the castle prop itself for the movies, but I still feel uneasy about it. Thanks for sharing your perspective JANG, I'm a huge fan and your perspective is greatly appreciated.
Walmart really is trying to sell it before retiring. I found it $50. Now, that is worth the money.
I found the retail price of $160AUD pretty mental even though I was not interested in this set at all, however kmart has it for $55AUD.
Oh, they're rancor faces! I can't unsee the Honey Monster...
7 minifigs in a $100 star wars set is almost unheard of these days..they get so greedy with star wars figs sometimes.
Guys I just want all of y'all opinion, which SW set should I get, the Obi Wan Kenobi new set or this set?
I just wish it included a second Gamorrean guard and a helmet for Fennec ... but I don't think I can complain too much as I just picked it up for £60!
$80 at Costco! If you like what you see here, that ain't bad! (Thanks for the great vid as always, Jang!)
honestly mostly because of Fennec's Helmet not being included, her hair piece not looking accurate at all and Boba's helmet and jetpack still not having the darker shade of green, I starting to think twice on whether or not I should get this set and instead spend it on 2 more 501st battlepacks. Also I find it funny how LEGO is kinda teasing us with box art. Cause Fennec is there with a helmet by her side
Check your local Costco stores. I found this at mine for $80. Definitely a better price, and a much more justifiable purchase. I do like the way it displays, but it is very difficult to get figures positioned. The spaces can be very tight. I'm happy I picked this up, because it has some really amazing figures and will look good on my Lego shelf!
The side section on mine also had a squeak. I wonder if that is a design issue
I really wish the Costco here would get this set already.
They have boxes of this set at Costco for $80
I bought this set yesterday and for some reason got a random piece. I ended up with yondu’s golden arrow piece. I checked and its not listed in the parts list. Never have had this happen in my 20 year lego journey
It's a weird set. it felt like they were rushing for book of boba fett and they just got it all kinds of wrong on the minifigures. One Gamorian Guard? No helmet for Fennec and just random everyone else. :/ Possibly it should have been a 30 dollar dias with throne?
Gamorian Guard Battle Pack!
I am peronsly torn by this set since the first picts... On one side i would love to own it becous the ony Jabba palace i have is the first one. On the other hand i dont like the pricing and have to do alot of rebuilding to fit my old (all green, lol) Jabba in it... its confusing! Anyhow, thanks for the, as always, great review Jang and be save out there.
$100 is what I expected the Australian price to be. Perhaps $120 at the most ($85-90 for the US). However our price is $170 - which is over 23c per piece... it's one of the most over-priced sets I've seen for a long time. I refused to buy the UCS A-Wing for being $340 for on ly 1700 pieces. This is worse! I do love the figure though - and it seems to be a great play set.
Bought it for $76.00. That’s a whole lot better than the $100 retail price from Lego.
It's a shame they didn't include the Bacta tank in this set... and that it doesn't close completely... should have been double the size for that price.
Also the stickers, Lego has so much competition these these days that don't use stickers even on cheaper sets, they can't continue this way.
I think it is acceptable that the throne room doesn’t have a roof. Technically, the main dome building is a sanctum for inhabited monks and the actual throne room is very deep underground. In a way, the palace is more of a cave with tunnel systems, kinda like an anthill. So I see this set as a inner diorama, with some outside suggestions to make it look recognizable enough without the controversy.
It's not very well designed.. price aside, why don't the doorways connect? Why can't I close this up to be one sealed building? Why is there not more space to put minfigs? It looks good on a shelf but it's a bad play set.
I got this set for 70 euro and it was way worth it! Really fun set, looks good on my shelf, and the build had a good bit of substance to it. At 100 though I feel like that's a bit much
the set looks good
It was discounted at Costco for about 70$
could this be part of a system like the chamber build from harry potter?
Back in 2012 and 2013 there were two Jabbas Palace Sets.
One was Jabbas Palace itself and one was just the Rancor Pit. Both were full sized buildings and they actually were designed to be put together. Unfortunately i only have the Rancor Pit which i think would not work with this version but it would be nice if they go back to that Idea.
Costco has had this set since a week before release for $80.
This reminds me of the pricing for the Winnie the Pooh set. I love the set, but the finished product doesn’t feel like it fits the price. Unfortunately exclusivity of minifigs seems to determine in large part what LEGO can get away with charging.
No idea why or how but a blue kyber crystal 1x1 piece wound up in my box
I got if for 45 bucks on ebay so i personally like it!
Just got it for 79!! 🙂 it was priced down in a toy store.
All I see is set full of good ideas but because of limits its very unfinished.
Seriously make a tower a separate set. And use budget on making better looking main hall.
Also just to add. Shame that Gamorian guard is once again this stupid single piece. Make the head and armor separate...
I think it's that the breastplate should be sand green, although the jetpack should be a different color.
earth green would have been a better choice for the jet pack and helmet on Boba Fett
It's 89 euro down from 99 at my local store. Is it worth picking up?
For those coming to this video for the first time, or coming back, make sure you check Costco. They were running the set for 40% off.
I like that face print for Boba, EXCEPT I'm pretty sure he still lacked eyebrows at this point, so they maybe should've done the brow lines in the "face detail/line color" rather than in black.
I wonder If we will ever get a ucs jaba/bobas palace
It's far more likely now we have seen rooms and sections within it in the Book of Boba Fett.
I was expecting more with those reconfigurable(?) sections, thinking they would elevate the display and/or playability value but no, it doesn’t look that great and the interior space is just not there.
I do like the throne itself and the minifig collection is nice but other than that, it’s a miss.
Do you feel like there's room for expansion within this set? The roof design seems relatively compatable with potential add-ons. Perhaps Ike a bacta tank
Would’ve preferred a $30 Boba Fett Throne set and then a UCS style Return of the Jedi Jabbas Palace.
You can get it now $80 at Costco.
I agree with you, Jang. Overall I think this set is far too over priced and overhyped. I also think the lack of details on the building, in particular the missing roof is actually a huge miss and one of the primary reasons I will not be buying this set. It just looks incomplete to me. As always, great review!
The only problem is that this set has no Jabba or return of the Jedi figures. This could have been a 2 in 1 set with two versions of bib fortuna, swap the throne with Jabba and his hookah, and Han Solo in carbonite.
I would be more ok with the price if the stickers were printed pieces. As is, it feels a bit cheap
I was annoyed at the marketing of this set because it doesn't show the full front, which to me is the most important angle. Maybe that was done in an attempt to avoid any of the controversies that were sparked back in 2012
