>>735003052They will count these as PS1 sales, so be prepared for the LEGO PS2!
>>735003052Collectorslop for fags
>>735003052the PS1 mini was half the price, but people resold them for almost that price.fucking ridiculous to sell a raspberry pie in a $30 lego set for that price but Lego is primejewish.
>>735003149Legos are worse than pokemon when it comes to brand markup.
>>735003052In Vietnam, 160 bucks worth over 4,203,360 currency
>>735003052lego has to be the gayest adult toy ever made
>>735003052priced at 160... where did that figure come from? hmm...
>>735003587It's not, it's a children's play toy.
You should buy anything but Lego.Not-Lego is far superior.
>>735003052Holy over priced trash.
>>735003052>lego set>of what it is aesthetically just a gray boxThat sounds like the most boring lego set ever made.
>>735003682not anymore. same way disney land is now for childless millenials.
>>735003939and the clean design of the ps1 would get raped by the visible block gaps too.just an all around terrible idea.
>>735003052>we want the boomlennial audience
>>735004154Let me guess, you also think homosexuality is not a mental illness?
>>735003052HOLY FUAAAAARK I can't wait to display a fake console in my rainbow glowie display case! It's so hecking nostalgic, this brings back so many memories playing Mort the Chicken back in elementary school
>>735004236meds
>>735004236your appeal to feelings instead of facts certainly makes you one
>>735004230>can't even put the phone down while brushing teethFuck you Steve, for unleashing this menace on humanity.
>>735004230until the last 3 seconds it looked like they are going to sue someone.
They should make sets that actually workLike how hard would it be to put a ps1 emulator in this thing?
>>735003939>>735004196you haven't seen or built a lego set since 2002 apparently
>>735004357Which steveSteve minecraft?Steve berg?Steve steve?
>>735004321Read a history book and get a clue.
>>735003052I hecking love childrens building blocks marketed to 40+ manchildren!
>>735004441I went to a lego store once and wanted to buy a keychain but they wanted like 10€ for it so I told them to fuck off.The store is now dead.
>>735004441Have you?
>>735004394Not hard at all, but they'd have to either add a cd drive for authenticity or an ssd to store roms. Both things that would make it even more expensive for very little gain.If they went with the ssd, they'd either have to sell it with X amount of pre installed games with no option to get more or build and maintain a way to sell additional games/game bundles via psn. Hardly worth it for a niche item like this.If the controller is something you build, I could see it falling apart when being used as well.>>735004442Jobs.
>>735004668The lego pokemon and really any large lego animal looks so fucking bad. I can't believe anyone thinks these lumpy piles of shit look good.
>>735003682Given the cost of sets today, the only kids who'll get any are those whose parents want to buy them for themselves and use their kids as an excuse. See >>735004230I do appreciate that they are honest enough about what miserable human beings they are targeting.
>>735004230>Lego Pokemon CreaturesPffftTell me when they make Lego Pales of Water
>>735003587Not an adult toyA manchild collectible
>>735004668it looks like shitnintendo must really have 0 standards to let this shit see the light of day
>>735005432It goes both ways, Lego actively makes shit worse on purpose just to save two cents worth of plastic. Just look at all the fan builds that get turned into actual sets, they're always way worse than the original design.
I've never played with Lego. A few friend had those when I was a kid.Always felt stupid to me. Once you finish assembling the bricks you can't really play with the thing.
>>735003052>$160>but it's not even the same size as a regular PS1
>>735003052This model kit is way cheaper than the Lego set itself. $14 by the way.
>>735003052I had a PS1 mini for 15 bucks. I hacked it to play anything made before the PS1 in addition to PS1 games.In retrospect I should have boughted four more just in case there's a thermonuclear war and I have to live on a low output generator for the next forty years. It's so small and energy efficient you can plug it by USB and it works.Fuck lego adults.
>>735003052Nigga you can get an actual PS1 for cheaper than this bullshit and use it as a display instead of this over price dog shit.
Lego PlayStation has no games.
>>735005960>just print the picture instead of building a jigsaw puzzle!
>>735003052Lol you could buy at least 4 actual PS1 consoles for that fucking price
>>735005790at this point just buy a broken PSX for $5 and hollow it out. Making the thing out of smaller bricks is the entire point
>>735006075Lego are gay you fucking fag.
>>735005886you dont need a piss1 mini for that there's an infinite amount of android or linux emulator boxes out there that work the same way.
>>735006642With a kick ass miniaturized PS1 case?
>>735004230Still odd to me how The Pokemon Company teamed up with Mega Bloks for the longest time. I'm guessing they got a better deal with them, and hoped that Lego autists would still be interested. Could you image how much money the two could have made if they did this shit in 1999? There would be a knife fight in every Toys 'R' Us.
>>735006642+ and two similar to the original ones gamepad? ( we didn't have joysticks yet when the PS1 came out and I played all my games with the cross )
>>735006683chang probably sells that shit on aliexpress.
im boughteding this psx
>>735003052Sony thinks their brand has the strength of fucking pokemon lmao
>>735003521Don't they charge per brick or something like that?
>>735006837they'd charge per atom if they could
>>735006810All it does is remind me of when the Playstation had gamesThe PS1 library mogs the fuck out of the PS5
>>735003078You joke but I wouldn't be surprised.
thinking about it, what's stopping someone from just uploading PDFs of the instructions for all the lego sets so that you can just buy a bin of random pieces on the cheap and use that to build these stupid things instead of having to shell out hundreds of dollars for the real deal?
>>735007165why stop therejust 3D print the lego pieces at home for pennies
>>735007165Instruction manuals have been readily avaible for ages. Lego even hosts them. They're terrible quality though, just like their sets.
>>735007165you pay for the brand, just like you pay for real trading cards, 40k models or these lego piecesnobody cares if you can proxy them
>>735007165>what's stopping someonenothing. The probability of getting the pieces you need from bins of random pieces is very low. You will end up acquiring tons of bricks you don't need.It makes much more sense to buy facebook marketplace and flea market bins of entire sets from broke soccer moms, but every single lego enthusiast knows about this meta and will be there to buy it before you even see the listing online
>>735006405How many Lego bricks can you shove up in your ass?
>>735003078Id buy a set if they did. It would be so petty it becomes based.
>>735007165The fact that they tend to have brand new pieces with prints on them that you can't get anywhere else.
I think I'd prefer a Lego PS2 than a PS1.
>>735004468Did you just blow in from reddit town?
>>735004685The fact he didn't know you were talking about Steve Jobs right off the bat says a lot about society
>>735005431>A manchild collectibleLego Funkpop. No, I am not talking about the Brickheadz.
>>735003052>$160Repeat after me: it’s okay when Sony does it. No one will have a week long meltdown over this
>>735003052>sony got no games>so it will just be the "shapes of play" and a controller lol
>>735004668the badge set youd get for preodering was the only interesting thing and it goes for like 200 dollars now
>>735003682fuck no. they pivoted to manchild display pieces for a quick cash in. people then buy this plastic furniture as an "investment" when it's just going to be beanie babies all over again in a few years lol
>>735004230Millennial here. I think we need to round up and shoot all of us.I can't be the only fucking sad sack of my generation that is diving deeper for things like my childhood media and developing a finer taste instead of just rebuying my childhood on an endless loop.
>>735008741>tumblrsky filename>tranny furfag art>"Millennial here."

They should make more remakes of older sets like the Blacktron Renegade.
>>735008582>entire thread is calling it retarded>everyone forgot about the 200 dollar pokemon legos after a daysay it with me: you're brown. you're not a victim.
>>735004230Jesus fucking Christ, please tell me this shit is fake
no wonder you zoomers and alphies can't rotate shapes in your minds if you think Legos are lame. your childhood entertainment was exclusively mascot horror games and tiktok reels, you should try something more tactile once in your life
>>735006691>There would be a knife fight in every Toys 'R' Us.That still happens today but it's scalpers fighting over who gets to resell it. It's a major problem with Pokemon everything. There's constant fist fights over who gets to resell Pokemon card packs, you have people placing air tags on cars of the people that restock Pokemon cards so they can be there when a restock happens, and you have people breaking into card shops to steal the Pokemon cards to resell, sometimes at gun point. There's new happenings constantly, it's REALLY fucking bad.
>>735009272First of all>>>>>>>>>>>legoSSecondly. Lego is really cool for 6-12 age rating but these modern sets are just build the brand thing and then let it collect dust instead of build it, play with it and then use the parts to freeball your own creations to play with.
>>735009119nah, they'd fuck it up. nu-lego is a disgrace. they had the og Arctic theme with transluscent orange chainsaws and The Thing flavoring nailed down and they rebooted it as some faggy polar bear preservation eco mission. same story as everywhere else I guess - filled with suits and tasteless dykes and fags
>>735009557yeah something like those lego buckets were much better for kids creativity.the more advanced lego tech at least let kids learn a bit about motors and how steering columns work but the "build brand" shit is lame.I think the optimal would be something inbetween. one massive bucket with random parts and then some manual that shows you varying things you could build out of the base generic parts.
member when lego was creative and not just collabslop?
>>735006962obsessed tendie, still mad the PS1 and PS2 shat all over your precious tendieboxes? lol
>>735003052>use small gray rectangles to build this big gray rectangleis anything more indicative of reddit pseudointellectualism than the lego fandom?
>>735009739yeah that was like close to 30 years ago at this point, they started shilling their IP shit big time with the star wars prequels and then harry potter
>>735008923>bluesky>stay with the timesmaybe if you're trying to hang out with reddit trannies, faggot. Go back.
>>735004230>invoices and bills, that yucky grown up shitit always makes me laugh how tone deaf this ad is: The world we billionaires created (siphoning every last dollar from the lower and middle class) is shit but hey look over here, we have plastic now that resembles creatures you remember from your childhood, BUY NOW
>>735009739https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifakz4yANsY
no matter how many trinkets and baubles you buy, your childhood won't return
>>735003115kinda agree lego is kinda stupid and why would i want this?i do kinda like ps1 but I get that its over, i still kept at least 10 of my favorites for it
>>735009442Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I appreciate that it's easy to be reductive about anything popular and in high demand, but it's nuts the shit people are doing for fucking shiny cardboard.And yeah, it's not actually about the cardboard itself, rather than what people are paying for it, but other things people are hoarding and scalping right now like fuel and RAM actually have a use.
>>735009739This shit was my peak lego phase. Literally got this exact set for christmas. The orange chainsaw stuff and the underwater sets were also cool.
>>735004230>my honest reaction to that
>>735004230Tell me it’s a parody.
>>735009739ever since their patent on the bricks ran out all they have are high profile brand deals and nostalgia to dominate the market, without that, a competitor that charges half the price per brick would sweep the market.
>>735010235And no matter how many history podcasts you listen to, you'll never be a "real man"
>>735011084mogged that roidtranny
>>735009739I haven't had a LEGO set since I was a kid. Lately I've had the urge to pick up a set and build something, but when I go check them out, it's all Star Wars / Harry Potter / Jurassic World shit. I miss the old pirate / castle / space sets. I used to have that little ghost dude that glowed in the dark, I thought it was cool as fuck.
>>735006691>Could you image how much money the two could have made if they did this shit in 1999?I can imagine Lego wanting to keep the Lion's share of sales and only wanting to pay a flat fee for the license. Probably also a tug of war between who gets the final say on designs.
>$160The prices they charge for this shit is insane, I pity the cucks that pay. For the stuff I last saw like Friends and Stranger Things sets you don't even get an entire building, just the frontage, and they want hundreds for it.
>>735004230i can't wait until they're making these commercials for gen alpha manchildren in 20 years.what will they be nostalgic about from today as 30 year olds?
>>735011715they only play roblox so I don't really know
>>735011757There's some big games on Roblox that have official plushies and collectable mystery box shit.
I get some technic sets once in a while and that's it. Don't need a lego playstation when I have a real one in a box somewhere.
>>735011715lego will be beanie babies by then. they've abandoned trying to cultivate an audience among the new generation for quick cash from the generation that grew up with it
>>735011621if you think that's a lot wait for the oil reserve to go critical lol
>>735008741Also millenial here and to be honest we probably had the best childhood in all human history. Growing up in the 90's was as good as life would or will ever get so I'm not suprised most of our generation is chasing the nostalgia high. I wish they werent so reddit about it tho...
>>735006691They had a deal with mega blocks because that was for kids. Now gamefreak knows maximum profit is with retard autist manchildren
>>735009272It is not their fault most Lego sets are overpriced as fuck.
>>735003052I think my wifes boyfriend will gift one to me at my bday. I already got so many good boy points.
>>735011865Yeah this extra borrowed time we're on right now will probably make the implosion of world finance much worse
>>735006691Man they had pikachu plushies in Aldi yesterday, when I was a kid in the 90s playing Blue on my GBC I would have jizzed my pants seeing pokemon stuff in the supermarket.>MUM PLEEEEEASE
For me it was the lego aero tube hangarhttps://brickipedia.fandom.com/wiki/7317_Aero_Tube_Hangar
>>735011524>I used to have that little ghost dude that glowed in the dark, I thought it was cool as fuck.That thing was extra neat because it was just a custome you could slot over any lego dude you had as long as the head and cape slot were unoccupied.
>>735011853To be fair usually that IS the way to catch the new generation as well since those people should be having kids. But LOL LMAO governments keep killing middleclass and hammer on lower class so no one sane wants to or can afford to have kids. Just a simple thing as getting a house or moving to a bigger apartment is not possible with these prices and wages.
>>735011621you could pay 160 bucks for grey plastic bricks which will do nothing once you put them on your shelf our you could pay 20-40 bucks for a broken PS1 which will do nothing once you put it on your shelf.I'll never understand this, I guess I'm too brain damaged.
>>735012158There is some fun in building the set, I like helping my kids build. But not for that price. If they made a set for a game I like, let's say a 4 inch high Lego Metal Gear Rex. For £40? Maybe I'd buy it, for £200? Fuck off.
>>735003052>Omg omg omg omg omg I am literally tearing up right now! My childhood resold to me with cheap overpriced plastic blocks!!? Yes yes yes yes yes Ill buy 3!!Adults who still dabble with Lego are equivalent to Disney Adults. Peak soi.
>>735003052You could probably fit a ps1 emulator inside it.
>>735011524There are some Lego stores that sell the older sets. I think they’re called Bricks & Minifigs. There’s also bricklink.
>>735012261get into plamo. they got cool mecha designs and most of it is much cheaper than lego.comes with manuals just like lego.
>>735012354I can probably fit my cock in your ass.
>>735003682>Childrens toyKek. Lego themselves acknowledged how over half their sales go to adult collectors. It's also why they sell stupid expensive collection sets that kids would never afford or even get the references. Like do you honestly think anyone under age 20 even knows what the Enterprise D is?
>>735012261I'd assume there are more interesting things to build than a grey rectangle but hey, I haven't bought lego in 2 decades so a grey rectangle might be the best thing they have to offer now.
>>735012158>20Anon, the first one is a scam. He's only selling the cable. The wording and pic is chosen specifically to trick ritalin addled adhd zoomers like you that can't finish reading a sentence.
>>735012472Yeah i mean if you love pokemon this is cool I guess but the price is just comical.
>>735004668from what i remember the other pokemon all looked way better than that cursed Pikachu. never gonna touch them myself because holy fuck those prices were absurd.
>>735003052Nintendo lego sets>Beloved characters>iconic scenes from the gamesPlaystation lego sets>uhhh just build the system
>>735012528thanks for missing the point and concentrating on irrelevant wankery
I don't understand lego redditors.It's literally just following a fucking manual of something premade, like ikea furniture but gayer.Free form building is where it's at.
>>735012751>haha i only included the wrong one in the first pic as a jokeIt's okay anon. There's no shame in admitting you fucked up. The shameful part is doubling down and denying it, despite it being the most obvious thing ever.
>>735012528>Anon, the first one is a scam.p.s. it isn't>The product is a Sony PlayStation 1 gray video game console, specifically designed for NTSC-U/C (US/Canada) regions. It comes with a composite RCA connectivity option and has a resolution under 480p. The unit does not include a power cord. The last time it was plugged in it worked but has been in my storage for years and I have no way of testing it. Sold as is.
Their brains give them the "I made this all by myself" happy chemicals when they put together a lego set. It's like when people play games on easy or with save states and their brains give them the "I beat this all by myself" happy chemicals. In short, morons.
>>735011621Lego prices are just insane across the board now. That new Kanto starter lego set is $650. Everything nostalgic gets price gouged I guess.
>>735013049the sad part is you'll find lego fans saying "it's actually a pretty good price per brick"
>more IP slop
>>735012456>adult collectorsAre legos this generation's "fine" china. Either way, it will all end up in a landfill.
>>735004230>literally "How do you do fellow kids"
>>735013096Gram weight is the best price checker. The price per brick argument has always been weak.
>>735012419If I am not mistaken, plamos tend to reprint their kits unlike Lego
>>735004230i thought it was unironically kino.....
>>735013292yes. at least the bandai stuff gets many reprints. not all of them but many.sometimes old mechs also get new kits because they actually put some money back into improving the process of making them unlike other companies.
>>735013404this shit is the best part of plamo, specially for thirdies like me that have a harder time with imports.feels like most companies actively makes things as hard as possible while im being raped by taxes and paying almost double.
>>735003052Do Lego still make toys or is it all just collector and display builds? Looks like Ninjago and City is still ongoing, so i guess there's some toys at least. But many of the bigger sets seems to not be built with playing in mind.
>>735004468Reading Mein Kampf right now, thanks for the advice.
>>735013404It is quite insulting when even a P-Bandai kit's price is lower than Lego's
>>735013725>NinjagoI think I've seen 1 lego guy in a wrap at the checkout of my supermarket some months ago.
>>735009837>is anything more indicative of reddit pseudointellectualism than the lego fandom?Anyone who watches a 1+ hour video essay.
>>735012419This shit was horrible, I bought one eons ago at it's release and the claws on the feet always fell down. Got tired of it and sold it because I could stand fixing each time I cleaned my figures from dust. Was fun to build tho, but still.
>>735009739My niggas did nothing wrong justice for Carapar, also fuck you Lego I will not be buying your product ever again until you release more actual Bionicle, fuck that brick built gwp dogshit tahu
>>735008741>I think we need to round up and shoot all of us.No, you live with it while the zoomies continue to defile everything you loved.
>>735012425Fuck me harder than the oil price
>>735014308Have you tried using abit of cement glue to tighten the joint or use it's dedicated stand?
>>735009739What is your opinion about those 3 in 1 creator sets?
>>735013821yeah its nonsense I already wrote off most p-bandai shit as a jew scam and I wasnt even aware of how expensive this brick bullshit is.
>>735015050I usually ignore most p-bandai kits if they are purely a recolor but still
>>735003052waste of time, money and space, fuck consoomers
