Its weird that people seek perfect boxes when buying new set. I think some collectors see this as excuse not to buy set. These lego carton boxes are cheap and intended to throw away so there are always some scratch on the way. Even they are damaged slightly by weight of set. I would definitely buy set even with some beating, bu it must be sealed. I never cared about new boxes, I only care about bricks.

I bought a lot new set recently and never had to use knife, once... This is definitely weird..

Simpsons were weird line and dont miss them by any means. Simpsons as sitcom are past their glory, so Im not interested in them anyway. Not mention theme consist of two hefty D2C sets and only minifigures were on regular sale. This doesnt help me in deciding either.

We have still Optimus here for around 130 euro. Still no drop. But at least i bought brand new Daily bugle from sale for around 250 euro. Which is lower than any offer on bricklink. But this defender is extreme out of touch price here...

Price in my country is definitely scary and in some way can compete with technic supercars. For same price I can buy here sets around 4000 pieces from 2021-2022 on sale. So Im not buying this sets, albeit looks good.

Blind bag needs to go, whats even worse in full box of CMF there are exactly three sets of minifigures in predefined locations so they completely knows from factory what figures are here. Are they scared of some figures on shelf? Yeah me too to just buy it... Last series 24. was probably only, with only bad figure for me. So I bought full box without hesitation...

This will be really good, I hope on par with Pyramid. Definitely looking into!

Yeah and I wonder why 2018 freight train is everywhere full on stock. My bet, 2022 is S@H exclusivity and limited in retail. So they stick with 2018 freight train for others and call it a day. Maybe 2022 freight train is limited run. It still doesnt make sense, but lego works in mysterious ways. I bought 2022 passenger train, I cannot wait to put it on display, and be train sets free for 4 years. I want to buy cobi Br52, but Im lazy to deal with missing pieces. Its not fun, and its time consuming. Definitely not worth...

Is there anyone interested in niche lego figures, that lego produced? I mean scala figures from year 1997. I want these figures and companion to brickbuild cars, and I dont know if these figures hold after so many years. These prices on bricklink are not exorbitant, but many listing says these figures are with cracks. I only have scala dogs, and never had any problems with that. I also have 19 technic figures and only one figure is in bad shape, but that one specifically is from 1980s . Are they worthy any time and money ? Thanks for help!

This, in 90s there were like 5 colours. All parts from sets were mostly interchangeable thanks to this Now its like 5 colours only in one sets. Its even worse looking after timeline after 90s, there were so many different colours, shades with small runs. And now I completely lost track... Maybe I sounds like boomer, but Im having hard time looking at new sets as useful donors... Its weird building sets from other bricks companies and saying, hey lego used to be like that. Its even worse, when I get price,weight, number of pieces and quality into decision.

Modern sets completely ruins reusability in MOCS. There is color coding/vomit for bricks, plates not full of studs. Its clearly they dont see them as parts donor to kids buildings anymore.

I collect lego and I have playmobil. Im sure, that I say truth that lego stickers as cheap as I can be. Playmobil stickers are sturdy and there are no bubbles or If used with caution they can be applied again to make perfect position. All my technic sets around year 2008 are now with crumbling stickers, which is really bad experience. Before christmas I bought cobi set, with everything printed. It will be great set, If there wasnt two missing pieces. I never had missing piece in lego...Having no stickers, is something stress relieving and Lego can do better for price they ask. Sets without stickers is always great experience. I get to the point of picking sets without stickers, or sets when sets doesnt look bad without them. I only buy speed champions set, if they looks good without stickers. Lego needs to get rid of stickers at least for sets with high value. It feels cheap...

Look at cobi, cobi is abandoning stickers. I just building 1:12 Škoda Octavia and no stickers. No mention its solid piece of plastic, not typical lego hollow structure. Im very suprised with this set... So far into building I not missing lego by any means.

Im done with sets that lies heavily on stickers, all my technic sets have crumbling stickers. Some are only six years old. Whats wrong with them? Do I have bad conditions, definitely no, because I have playmobil sets that also have stickers and no problems. These sets cost a lot and sticker sheet for few cent completely ruins it. Definitely Im on way to abandon lego, I love building, but paying premium price for sets when they are cutting all corners possible is not my kind of fun. Lego gets 1+1 together, please!
