Auroralampinen Posted September 10 Author Posted September 10 Coming soon. I will publish second pantasy set review soon:). And, i have made decision that i will not review offical lego sets in eurobricks anymore. Going foward, i will only review pantasy sets and maybe lumibricks and of course my mocs:). And in this time period when i got the windmill, i fell in love with pantasy sets, so going foward you will see hopefully every month a new pantasy set review. So have a great time:). Ps... And to make clear, im not a lego hater i like, what they do. But their prices are too much for me(for example like the new 1000€ death star) . And pantasy for example has made a ton of great looking sets for affordable prices, so i maded a switch. But i still buy lego technic pieces for my mocs, but othervice i have stopped completely buying lego's:). Quote

But i still buy lego technic pieces for my mocs, but othervice i have stopped completely buying lego's:). Amen to that - this is exactly what I have decided on maybe three years ago. For me, it was the Pantasy Steam Punk Train Station. The Steam Punk Air Ship is now circling over the train station ... while the train is moving back and forth (Oh, I sometimes buy used (and old) LEGO) All the best Thorsten P.S.: Looking forward to your reviews!

Auroralampinen Posted September 10 Author Posted September 10 Pantasy Craft Brewery review. Hello today i will be showing again a really exciting pantasy set. The Craft Brewery Specs Model name, Craft Brewery. Set number, 85023. Piece count, 3300+. Minifigure count 3. No stickers, this set has only printed pieces. Plus 2 unique plastic signs. Price, 150€. The box and shipping box:). The set arrived on a typical amazon shipping box with some protection paper inside:). The box is above medium size with nice artwork, and the box is really thick compared to the windmill workshop box, but othervice it has the same dimensions:). Here is a box comparison:). The box is about 90% full:). Inside there are 52 bags in total, 45 numbered bags with 10 building phases, 7 unnumbered bags, 32x32 plate(keep in mind not baseplate) and 2 instructions booklets. Instructions are splitted to 2 books. In total 756 building steps and 187 pages:). First and last pages of the box:). Other manual last page shows other pantasy sets. In this case our Finnish beloved childhood classic kids show the moomins:). And pantasy is the first building block brand which has the moomin license:). The 32x32 plate is good quality without any bending issues:). Interesting pieces and printed pieces:). Shiny chrome and gold pieces:). Unique plastic signs:). The build:). Bag 1 (4 bags in total) . Bag 2 (4 bags in total). Bag 2 started with a nice surprise, the printed elements were on separate bag inside of the bigger bag so they won’t get damaged during shipping:). Plus bag 2 had a ton of mind blowing brick engineering. Everything is legal building techniques even though lego doesn't use these techniques in their sets:). And the bottling machine was soo cleverly geniusly designed to make it move on specific timing:). Like this 1x3 brick. I was wondering why 1x4 wasn't used, but when I looked a little bit closer my mind was blown away there was a specific reason for this and that was soo genius technique:). Bag 3 (3 bags in total). Bag 4 (6 bags in total). Note the printed pieces on the bottle:). Bag 4 had also a lot of clever building techniques:). The barrel spinner connections are half stud off set. Bag 5 (4 bags in total). Here is the conveyor belt:). Bag 6 (3 bags in total). Bag 7 (3 bags in total). Again a lot of clever building techniques:). Bag 8 (4 bags in total). Again with clever building techniques:). Bag 9 (7 bags in total). Bag 10 (5 bags in total plus one unnumbered bag with 3 3x4 plates) plus minifigures (3 bags in total). Spare parts:). There was some color error. Because these 3x4 plates weren't used. And the correct color 3x4 plates were on separate bag:). The minifigures:). Outside details:). The interior:). The gramophone is an easter egg to this pantasy set:). https://pantasy.com/products/pantasy-gramophone-85009 The functions:). Impressions and pros and cons:). This set is so amazing looking with great functionality and playability. This is a pretty heavy model. Usually Lego competitors building is really mid, but pantasy is wiping the floor with lego level building experience. I had soo much fun putting this together even thought those clever windows were a bit repetive:). +Great building experience +Looks great +Minifigures look so good with great printing +Price, value, prints, unique pieces +Piece quality and instructions +/- The production line function is a great feature but you have to be really carefull when assembling this model, because it does need a lot of fine tuning to make it work perfectly:). - Slightly nitpiking the side green door is pretty loose and opens too easily Final verdict:). Building experience 4.8/5 Value 5/5 Piece quality 4.8/5 Instructions 4.8/5 Looks 5/5 Functions 4.8/5 So do i recommend to buy this set. Honestly yes, this is soo cool model which lego will be skipping due their no alcohol policy. Quote

Pantasy has not stolen any mocs, so I really hope this review can stay on eurobricks. Because Pantasy is not another cheap Chinese garbage company, I have allowed Pantasy sets general discussion and pantasy set reviews on this topic, so this will be the only Pantasy topic on eurobricks. Well, have you seen this? It is from early 2024 ... All the best Thorsten Quote
Auroralampinen Posted September 11 Author Posted September 11 7 hours ago, Toastie said: Well, have you seen this? It is from early 2024 ... All the best Thorsten Well, nope:/. And if you have some questions about the monthly reviews here is Q&A for you:). Question, will the reviews be completely surprise ?. Answer, yes all reviews are completely surprises and i will buy pantasy sets which interest me:). Question, how you do afford to make monthly reviews without charging anything for the instructions ?. Answer, i have 160€ monthly budget to buy pantasy sets, and pantasy's most expensive sets cost around 150€ like the craft brewery:). Question, how you will display these sets ?. Answer, i don't know, i probably will buy bigger used desks to my house:). Question, have you ever builded a lego city before this monthly review spree ?. Answer, nope i have not made any lego cities so the pantasy/"lego" city build is completely new to me:). So have a fun time and next review will come in october:). Quote

Toastie Posted September 11 Posted September 11 @Auroralampinen Thank you very much for your note!!! I don't have Facebook - this is nice to know! Hey, then they may like my motorization of the Pantasy Steam Punk Air Ship (#85021) as well - I shall post a few photographs here in this forum as well. The air ship's Tenka motors (one for the propellers and one for turning it around in the air above the suspended train rails) are as well integrated into the remotely controlled (ESP32) and automated train operation. All the best Thorsten Quote

Auroralampinen Posted September 13 Author Posted September 13 In case you are wondering, yes i have now about over a 10 pantasy sets in my wishlist and review backlog. So because i can only buy one in each month this review spree will take over a year and pantasy does release soo many cool sets so often that im in trouble now. But pleace enjoy this review spree and my struggles for display space. And i really want to raise awarness about these good alternative brick companies. And i do really enjoy building and reviewing pantasy sets so at least i have a lot of fun building and making reviews for the pantasy sets;). Quote
Auroralampinen Posted September 15 Author Posted September 15 Well, i decided to sell my old bike. So that means i will have the freedom to buy a massive bulk of pantasy sets. So october will be one hell of a ride. You will probably see a dozen pantasy sets reviews. And i can build my pantasy city, don't worry i will still do a monthly reviews of pantasy sets because they are releasing soo many cool stuff every month to keep my self busy to make quality reviews for you, so have a fun time:). Quote
Auroralampinen Posted September 23 Author Posted September 23 Ok, now i have finally a proper dining table at my crib. And now i can display my pantasy sets:). The table was technically free, but i gave 10€ to the seller because im a good person:). Quote
Auroralampinen Posted September 26 Author Posted September 26 All right, yesterday i ordered about 4-5 pantasy sets. More pantasy reviews are coming soon:). And this won't affect the monthly pantasy set reviews, this relieved the backlog strain. Now i don't have to worry, that my wanted list sets getting retired before i get them:). Quote
Auroralampinen Posted October 1 Author Posted October 1 (edited) Ok, this is the first review from the October review spree:). Specs. Model name, Western Mine. Set number, 85025 Pcs, 2990. Figure count, 3. No stickers, only printed pieces:). Price, 150€. Release date, October 2025 And a plastic sign:). The Western Mine has one unique aspect. It's the first ever gbc(great ball construction) set which is available to purchase. Normally gbc are made by fans and are these big and massive things:). (Yes, these were my first lego videos which i did watch when i was a little kid, using my family computer to watch youtube:).) But this set is small and practical for home display:). (please do not talk about mould king gbc sets. With my knowledge they are stolen and that is un ethical). The box and shipping box:). Ok, some amazon genius decided to ship this only using the set box. Luckily the box arrived in pretty good condition. And I managed to remove the shipping labels without damaging the box:). Ok, i did contact pantasy about this shipment. And they will look into this, so this won't happen ever again:). The box:). The box includes a lot of nice artwork. And a slightly rocky design which is really cool to see:). The box is the same size as the craft brewery box. But apparently the western mine box did come from a different batch, since it includes other logos and age rating:). The box was about 90% full:). The bags and instructions:). Inside there are 48 bags with 12 building stages, with 6 unnumbered bags for plates, tools, electronics, ropes, hoses and minifigures. And there are 2 instruction booklets with separate paper fix guide for some steps and a loose plastic sign:). The BAS(Brick Alive System) Motor and Usb c hub:). Instructions:). There are 2 booklets, the first book has 103 pages. And the second one has 110 pages. There are 694 building steps in total:). Instructions art work is a night and day difference from lego’s current “slop instructions”. And pantasy front cover uses slightly thicker and firmer paper compared to lego's instructions:). However there was a mistake, but pantasy did include a separate paper sheet with fixed steps:). And my first manual did have a few cosmetic defects, so I did contact them that the instructions needed much more protection in the box during shipping. And they replied that they will look into a solution to protect the manual plus they will ship a new manual for free:). First pages:). Last pages:). The plastic sign has a protective film which you have to remove:). Unique pieces and printed pieces Build process:). Fixed steps:). Bag 1(2 bags). Bag 2(3 bags) . Luckily pantasy did not skip the test your build step:). Bag 3(4 bags). Bag 4(3 bags). Bag 5(3 bags). Bag 6(3 bags). The rope was really high quality, same quality as lego’s ropes:). Bag 7(3 bags). Bag 7 completes the first book:). Bag 8(4 bags). Bag 9(2 bags). Bag 10(6 bags). Bag 11(6 bags). Bag 12(3 bags). (Plus the minifigures:).). Spare parts:). Well, I didn't make any mistakes and these were left. I did contact pantasy about this and they will look into this:). The minifigures:). Minifigures are again topnotch:). Outside details:). Interior:). Functions:). Pros and cons. +looks +functions works really well +coolness factor +motorized with usb c, and without any stupid app controls +/- instructions were good but some colors are a bit off. -little bit fragile to construct Final note:). Well, when I first saw this I didn't think too much of it. But after looking at this more closely, I noticed this is a full blown gbc with electronics. So I bought this because I love watching gbc. And did this disappoint me. No, not at all, this is soo beautiful model. And this has started to grow on me. And this is bigger than expected. This model stands on 4x 16x16 plates(32x32) but this is really big for that plate size. And I really, really like this model. I think this is a must have. Plus pantasy customer support is again lego level of customer support, so this set absolutely became one of my favorite sets of all times:). Here is the critical section:). Instructions were really good. But sometimes the color consistency was really off. And some assemblies were a bit fragile to construct. And balls can fly away from the lower pit. Final verdict:). Playability 5/5 Looks 5/5 Functions 5/5 Building experience 4.5/5 Instructions 4.5/5 Piece quality 5/5 Minifigures 5/5 Electronic quality 5/5 Value 5/5 Edited October 1 by Auroralampinen Quote
Toastie Posted October 2 Posted October 2 Thank you @Auroralampinen for these wonderful reviews!!! I totally agree with your assessments (the critical sections ;) - man Pantasy so dwarfs LEGO with these sets. In all aspects - including prices. All the best and keep let them coming!!! Thorsten Quote

Auroralampinen Posted Friday at 07:50 PM Author Posted Friday at 07:50 PM (edited) Well, this is the second review from the October review spree:). Specs:). Model name, Blossom Café Set number, 85032 Pcs, 2826 Figure count, 4 No stickers, only printed pieces:). Price 150€. Release date october 2025:). Plus a plastic sign:). The box:). This box arrived again without an outer cardboard delivery box. And the other side has been going through a war zone, and has been completely destroyed by ups and amazon:/. Luckily I contacted pantasy and they will send a new box:). Anyway, the box art is really really beautiful. While it's adult oriented, with black design, there are subtle art designs added to the box. Which makes this look really premium and good:). And yes, the box art is night and day difference from lego’s current “slop 18+ black design”:). The box is about 90% full:). The bags and instructions:). Inside there are 48 bags in total. 6 unnumbered bags with plates, minifigures, plastic sign. And the glass elements. And numbered bags 1-14:). Plus 2 instructions booklets:). Stack of plates and the sign:). Glass elements:). Minifigure bags:). Instructions:). Instructions are again really premium feel, and they are splitted to 2 books. The first book has 136 pages and the second book has 153 pages. In total 712 building steps:). First pages of the book:). Pantasy has updated the first page from adults welcome to this. And this is definitely an upgrade:). Last pages of the book:). The second book's last page has nice 5 year anniversary artwork:). Unique pieces and printed pieces:). Building process:). Bag 1,(2 bags). Bag 2,(3 bags). Bag 3,(3 bags). In bag 3 there is a unique pantasy technique to put stuff on plates. This technique was found also in windmill workshop. And this is pretty annoying since it's not connected to anything:/ Bag 4,(3 bags). The bag 4 builds the sign but I noticed a flaw with the design. The sign will move side to side, because it’s not fixed on either side. But luckily i found a pretty easy fix for it:). The first 2 minifigures Ok, pantasy has updated their minifigure instructions. Previously they were builded at the end. But now their are builded between the bags:). Bag 5,(3 bags). Bag 6,(2 bags). Bag 7,(3 bags). Bag 7 completes the first booklet:). Bag 8,(3 bags). The last 2 minifigures:). Bag 9,(5 bags). Bag 10,(3 bags). Bag 11,(4 bags). Bag 12,(4 bags). Bag 13,(2 bags). Bag 14,(2 bags). Spare parts:). Interesting building techniques and building tricks:). I absolutely love these stairs, they are so nicely done:). This tiny cactus is soo cute:). The side ornaments are soo cool:). The pantasyfied Scream(using forks as hands) and Girl with a Pearl Earring paintings are soo cool:). There is 2 ways to open the atrium door:). Outside details:). Interior:). (That grey object looks like squidwards house from spongebob;).). Pros and cons:). +++ Looks +Interior +Piece quality +Instructions +Atrium door mechanism +Prints and gold elements, no cost cutting for profits to been seen here;). +/- Some glass panels were a bit scuffed and scratched. But again lego has also this issue:). -Atrium trees are flimsy as he*l Final note:). Good stuff first:). Well, I have no words. This is absolutely stunning. This absolutely demolishes and shreds into pieces every single café that lego has ever put out to market(like the death star destroying the alderaan;).). This model is absolute beauty im soo impressed with this. The product name is soo true this is filled to the brim with floral stuff. The massive atrium with trees is absolutely stunning. And the door mechanism is absolutely brilliant. The art gallery and the sculpture gallery is soo nicely done. And the shiny gold elements are icing on the cake:). Bad stuff:(. Well, the only negative what i have with this is those trees in the atrium. They are flimsy as he*l but positives outweigh the negatives:). So, do i recommend this set:). Absolutely, this is soo good looking set. And comparing this to the 10362. This is way better product and model. And the 10362 price is 100€ on lego's site. So i strongly recommend saving up 50€ and buying this for 150€ on amazon. If you only like lego figures and don't wanna give any chances for alternative figures. Then you can toss the pantasy figures in the bin or burn them and replace them with lego figures. Because this set is lego figure combatible unlike the 10362:). Here are my tips for building this set if you choose this over the 10362:). Building process is similar to lego. So no worries there:). Only area where patience is tested is with the atrium tree and the little cup on the espresso machine:). And if you are worried about customer support being bottom of the barrel junk. Please trust me pantasy has lego level customer support and they are ready to help you if you have issues or something else:). Here is pantasy's facebook group:). https://www.facebook.com/groups/pantasybricks/?ref=share And how to contact pantasy customer support. Go to facebook and look for profile pantasy brix. And send him messenger message or post the issue on the facebook group and pantasy brix does answer pretty quickly:). And in my case i have completely blown away by the customer support it's amazing and really great:). Final verdict:). Looks 6/5 Building experience 4/5 Instructions 4.5/5 Interior 5/5 Piece quality 4.5/5 Building techniques 4.5/5 Value 5/5 Edited Friday at 07:57 PM by Auroralampinen Quote
Auroralampinen Posted Monday at 05:50 PM Author Posted Monday at 05:50 PM (edited) Well, if lego only/mostly uses the motors in technic sets. And currently it seems that the control + system is throwed under the bus even thought its 5 years old. Well pantasy does the opposite and puts the new BAS system on almost every single weird gadget and set. Like this one this includes motor usb c port wire hub and a sound brick. My mind is now truely blown away🤯 http://brick4.com/set/49458/Peanuts And best part. Pantasy BAS system doesn't use att all phones or tablets. Everything is controlled via couple of buttons and switches via the wire hub/control hub. Its really amazing to not have to use a phone when interacting with brick set:).

Auroralampinen Posted Tuesday at 07:53 AM Author Posted Tuesday at 07:53 AM This is my third pantasy set review from the October review spree:). Specs:). Model name, Steampunk Airship Set number, 85021 Pcs, 1949 Figure count, 5 No stickers, only printed pieces:). Price 140€. Release date, april 2025 Plus 2 plastic foils for the fins:). The box and shipping box:). After those 2 catastrophe deliveries. This model arrived with an outer cardboard shipping box:). And this arrived with a good amount of protection paper:). The box is nice with nice artwork:). The box is above medium sized. And really thin compared to the windmill workshop box:). The box is about 98% full:). The bags:). Inside there are 37 bags in total. With 7 unnumbered bags, 6 loose pieces, and 1-10 numbered bags:). The instructions:). The instructions were badly damaged. And I had to put the instructions under 2kg weights overnight. And it maybe slightly helped. But luckily pantasy will ship me a new manual:). But otherwise the instructions are really vice. With nice artwork and a leather imitation backcover:). Instructions has 156 pages with 341 building steps:). First pages of the book:). Last pages of the book:). Plastic foils and ropes:). Minifigure bags:). Unique pieces and printed pieces:). What i have hearded. This piece has been spray painted that's why the inside are red:). Bag 1, ( 2 bags). Bag 2, ( 3 bags). Bag 2 had a lot of colorful pieces to ease the build:). Bag 3, ( 3 bags). Bag 4, ( 3 bags). Bag 5, ( 3 bags). Bag 6, ( 3 bags). Bag 7, ( 2 bags). Bag 8, ( 3 bags). Bag 9, ( 5 bags). Bag 10, ( 3 bags). Spare parts:). Interesting build techniques and building tricks:). These side engines has a pretty cool way to connect the blades:). Minifigures:). Oh mama, this printing is next level. The detail level has gone through the roof:). Outside and interior details:). Functions:). All the functions are controlled via the knob on the side. And the work really well:). Pros and cons:). +Looks +Building experience +Value +Prints +Figures +Functions +/- Some technic pins clutch was slightly loose -Little bit fragile Final note:). Again this is a really beautiful model with a great price tag. But some details are a bit fragile, so this is a display set mostly. The piece quality was good but some technic pins clutch was slightly lacking. And the shiny gold pieces are really nice:). But overall I'm really happy with this model. And the positives outweigh the negatives:). Final verdict:). Looks 5/5 Value 5/5 Instructions 4.5/5 Figures 5/5 Building experience 4.5/5 Piece quality 4/5 Functions 5/5 So do i recommend this set:). Honestly yes, its priced fairly well. And for that price you will get a lot bang for your buck:). Quote
Toastie Posted Tuesday at 07:08 PM Posted Tuesday at 07:08 PM Well, once again, a wonderful review! Thank you very much @Auroralampinen!!! And again, I fully share your assessment. There is one thing I like to comment on, though: 10 hours ago, Auroralampinen said: But some details are a bit fragile, so this is a display set mostly. True, but the model is sturdy enough to lift it up into the air and spin it around! Here is my Airship with a suspension mechanism consisting of two thin steel wires, a custom turntable (LEGO pieces, a Tenka Cubic Motor Cube, some rollers, leftover wooden floor pieces, and nuts and bolts I found in my workshop), a Deutsche Bahn stacked glass disc insulator (4 discs, salvaged from a construction zone not far from my place years ago), and well, a mount attached to the ceiling. I was a bit nervous when hanging that insulator, as it weighs a ton. Add the about three kg for the airship ... All this would crash down onto my Pantasy train station and other train stuff. But so far so good; it appears as if my stud finder found the upper collar beams hidden behind the drywall panels ... The airship also has a Cubic Motor Cube attached to the main drive, very easy to do. A Tenka BT Battery Cube propels both, the airship mechanism and the turntable. I am using the two steel wires to lift the airship to also route electrical juice to the turntable motor. And as per usual, this is remotely controlled/automated using the same ESP32 Devkit1 board I am using for my Pantasy suspended Steam Punk train along with a LEGO PUp remote control. Left dial = train, right dial = airship + auto-sequences. I surely don't want to hijack your thread, here is just one picture; I will open another thread in this forum to show a bit more. I also made a very brief video, which I need to do again, but I don't have the time for right now. This thing happily spins around. And yes, I have to put a brown plate to hide the yellow stuff ... All the best and thanks again (!!!) Thorsten Quote
