Lego Thread - Because KF wasn't already autistic enough.

[NSA]

Not a Legofag, closest I came was faking being one for a girl.

But holy shit the prices are insane. I had a high school friend show me his allocated manchild room (we’re both late 20s now) and he’s like, “Me and Steph wanted to do a trip this year but it wasn’t in the budget.” That was in regards to me and another friend going on a bender in Nassau for a week and a half.

Then I learn that fucking sail barge is almost a GRAND in leaf bucks? Mother of God, those euros fucking hate you guys.

Anyway, onto the point. Why does Jang look like he’s a depressed Sim? I remember from being a Lego kid that he was the best Legotuber. Did something silly happen to warrant him looking like a fast-aging clone trooper? I had to do a double-take when I saw him in my recommended.

Yeah, I'm very discriminating about what Legos I buy. The positive with Lego is that you can theoretically sell them and get your money back. They hold their value better than gold supposedly.

As for Jang, he's clearly had some kind of breakdown or something. All his posts sound like a sulky teenager trying to negotiate with a physically abusive drunk father. He sounds borderline schitzo sometimes, like he's being gang-stalked by the comment section.

Here is a recent post where he apologies approximately 10 thousand times for...spamming old videos reuploads? Does even a single person give a fuck? He sounds like there's a guy behind him pointing a shotgun at his head.


Jesus, please watch over this man.

Utter bullshit. Gold appreciates. The only sets I have that gained value are the Cafe Corner, and some other modular building. This is when they were limited run, and 'tests' for the market. Now anything considered to be popular such as the Falcon are bought by scalpers and collectors, and never run out of print

this. I've personally decided to get me and my gf lego sets from 2003/4 and while that one cloud city set is up there in price, the x-pod sets of the time are only within 10-15 dollars new in box and 3$ (their original asking price) used. If im getting a bigger set I typically tend to use the part out feature on bricklink and eliminate any pieces I already have by process of elimination using my giant lego bucket Ive had since I was 3 years old. I will say I am getting annoyed with lego on other fronts though. I miss the plastic polybags and I especially miss their plastic cups they gave you when doing pick-a-brick. I dont even see how they can say theyre trying to be eco friendly cause they literally make abs bricks...thats like their entire thing. unless they start making their bricks out of cardboard they shouldnt even try.

I like the paper bags...they are easier to throw away as they fold flat But yes...bitching about being eco friendly when you're core product is plastic ahahhahahahah

My lego pieces in my room are so old that they crumble if I pry them off wrong. How should I fix this because I have some very old unique pieces

Found this video in my recommended feed and it's probably the first time I've wanted to build something with LEGOs in a long time:

Part of me wants to use the china-knockoffs but I can't bring myself to do it. This was the first video I've seen of LEGOs without constantly thinking "wow this must be expensive".

I used to love LEGO when I was a kid, especially the older sets. They had a nice charm to them, not too realistic but still not too simple, they had their own character. Something I also loved was the backgrounds of those old LEGO sets, they were so “old school.”
