$600.00. What do you think?
>>214863703I think you're on the wrong board
models that rely on a ton of non-standard bricks are lamefite me
>>214863703>paying $600 for some plastic that cost $5 to make
>>214863703I've never understood the appeal of lego. It looks like shit, blocky and unshapely.
>>214863703Is that a butt plug?
Cool. But what are you going to do with it?
>>214863703I think modern Lego sucks
>>214863703>$600 for half a towerBruh
>>214863703To be honest I wouldn't be interested for $40 and I like Lego. It just doesn't look very good
>>214863703>What do you think?manchild
>>214863726They stopped making one-off pieces for the most part though. Most sets use a wide variety of pieces from an incredibly large library of now "standard" bits.
As a kid you never really understand how expensive Lego really is
>>214863703You need to buy it to be based. If you don't, you will be cringe, like the people who like RoP. Buy it to own the libs!
>>214863726>non-standard bricksI remember a long, long time ago my parents took me to Legoland in Billund. (The original Legoland.) All the miniature landscapes were built from regular bricks that you could and would find in the sets you could buy.They also had a non-Lego exhibit at their museum. I think it was called "Titania's Palace" and it displayed a huge dollhouse that a millionaire had bought for his daughter in the late 1800s or early 1900s, with as many rooms as a palace would have and exquisit miniatures. (Dolls, furniture, clothes etc. etc.) The collection could easily have cost more than a million.
>>214863703I could've 3D printed that for less you faggot
Legos if they Link
I never understood the appeal of such thingsWhat I liked as a kid was building my own things with legos, not autistically follow instructions
>>214866631These things have zero replay value. Kapla is the king of sandbox building.
>>214863703$200 on aliexpress
IMO, I been personally looking into getting something from one of these companies that make HQ LOTR statues. lego is fun, but i dont think its would be as cool as something more realistic.
>>214866631You're right. Though I admit as a kid I bought a Lego book in Denmark that had some interesting projects in it what you could build with the more advanced sets that had motors, axles, cogwheels etc. That was still in the pre-microprocessor era, all just simple mechanics, but so fascinating.
>>214866692Why is the Nazghul a cock?
>>214863703gives me the ick
>>214863703legos are sort of stupid when you can get quality statues for the same price these thing go for. do yourself a favor and do that instead you'll thank me later. they also go up in price since they're limited usually
>>214866692what's with the pixelated nazghul
>>214866723probably blurred because it was a pic from a ebay listing
>>214863703Are you happy?
>>214865761I really don't care for it anymore.It was cool before physics and CGI caught up and before vr Lego culture peaked and ended with Lego Island
>>214863703>83USD on aliexpressheh nothing personnel, lego
>>214863703I wish my family had more money to buy legos when I was a kid. I would have a blast with those.
All those little bricks will still be in landfills and the ocean when the sun begins to explode
>>214867346Basé
>muh half towerWhy the whining? Way easier to display that way.
>>214863746They are fortnite for gen x-millennials, basically a brand for kids doing collaboration with other brand and franchise to stay alive without significant original content whatsoever, just like fortnite
even as a kid I thought lego stopped being fun around 2007-8. a lot of the generic fun sets were phased out more and more for licensed movie tie-ins.
>>214863746That's because you lack imagination
>>214863746It's great to build random shitBut it seems like it's marketed as shit you should build once following instructions and never touch againAs a child I used to build random cars with whatever I found, and destroy them after a few days to make new ones
>>214867849I always saw The base models as "starting points"Eventually I would start customizing them. Adding and subtracting pieces. Eventually you'd have something totally new
>>214863703>$600.00. just buy a Hot Toys figure at this point. it's a shame there isn't a Morf or zendaya (elf version with the Casca haircut) figure from Hot Toys yet
>>214863703I think I'm going to by two and then slap another fuck capitalism sticker on my macbook pro
>>214863703It is very cool, anon. But that's nothing.
have anyone tried the lego fleshlight?
>>214867488Ah explains a lot.>>214867523I'm a zoom zoom, I have more imagination than you in the tip of my pinky.>>214867849Yes, but it's for children. Grown-ups move on the engineering real things.
>>214863703>600 dollars wasted on plasticDo westoid s o y b o y s really?With that amount you can buy months worth of rakjia
>LotR isn't reddit
I'd rather have the set for Seinfeld's apartment but it's overpriced and having Legos as an adult is embarrassing in general.
>>214863703Must've been fun to build but I'd be ashamed to have this on display in my house. There are just some things from your childhood that you should leave behind.
>>214863703The box looks more impressive than the toy
>BUILD ME A MODEL WORTHY OF MORDORRRRR
The last Lego set I bought was the Seinfeld one. I think cheeky ones like that are fine, since they're small and mainly for the minifigs, but I'm not sure who these giant playsets are for other than grown-up Lego fans. They're kind of like model train sets but without the customization, intricacies of scheduling and operation, and admittedly a little ugly.
>>214865761>As a kid you never really understand how expensive Lego really isAs a kid, Lego used to be a lot cheaper by weight. Modern sets are deceptive because "600 pieces" sounds like a lot, but most of them are tiny greebling pieces, so the rebuild potential is less than an older set that was priced the same but "only" had 200 pieces.
>>214868703Impressive, very nice. But let's see Paul Allen's set.
>>214867346Based fucking chinks
>>214863703I think I bought the Lepin version for $80.
>>214866814I feel like something with so little detail could have been much, much smaller
>>214868833>I'm a zoom zoom, I have more imagination than you in the tip of my pinkyDelusion =/= imagination.
>>214871331I just imagined a swallow morphing into a pigeon. It went inside a volcano and emerged a phoenix, which then flew above the earth in tandem with the sun, making people believe in a giant serpent. Then it came down, but a little hatchling, and embedded itself in the earth and burrowed down, emerging in a wide tunnel and into the hands of a giant Denisovan-Khazar-Giant hybrid. That man put the tiny bird in a pool of black goo that morphed it into a five-headed snake, that ventured to the surface and terrorized humans.There. That was free-form, writing as fast as I can. You're unimaginative.
