“I like squid... *_deepfried especially”_*

Minifig Jang looks like he’s having a blast of a time riding on a shark! 😂

When you talked about how you prefer squids deep-fried, I thought it was hilarious, but when you suggested using the extra pieces to build stuff to cook and serve the squid, I completely lost it laughing. Thank you, Jang. I really needed that laugh this morning.

As someone who loves cephalopods and sharks (but am by no means an expert on either), and an owner of this set's predecessor 4506 Deep Sea Predators from 2004, this set looks to be a worthy spiritual successor to one of my favorite LEGO sets of all time. However, I'm not as big a fan of the shark in this one as I am of the squid and the anglerfish, both of which improve tremendously on their previous versions. The shark here does have better shaping given the diversity of parts compared to 15 years ago, but the pectoral fins look too stubby and I think overall the original shark can still hold its own. I wouldn't mind having the two together - different shark species can cohabit peacefully. The original squid was lanky and as a result notoriously flimsy at its limbs; this one is significantly beefier and has actual tentacles along with its arms, which is great. Your suspicions are right: cephalopods usually have only one siphon/funnel/jet, not two. The original anglerfish had a comical-looking mouth, which wasn't so much a problem as the lure that pointed straight up! The anglerfish here is much more realistic-looking, and I especially like the deliberate use of different angles to get the shaping of the head just right. I also prefer the glow-in-the-dark parts in the original set, but it's great that LEGO preserved that aspect of the original set in the form of trans-neon green parts in this set. The price is great even where I live, but unlike the original which allowed you to build the shark, squid and anglerfish all at once, I'll have to get as many copies of this set as models I want to build. Given that I already have the original set rebuilt and on display, I'm not sure if I think it's worth getting this one just yet. I'll have plenty of time to think about it, hopefully. Thanks for reviewing this.

*When Jang calls upon cephalopod experts:* Me: I play Splatoon!

droid arm piece would be perfect to build Angler's lure.

Sharks have a tongue referred to as a basihyal. The basihyal is a small, thick piece of cartilage located on the floor of the mouth of sharks and other fishes. It appears to be useless for most sharks with the exception of the cookiecutter shark.

I like how the same eyes used for the squid and the crab have a very different effect =)

This set is an epic win all the way through. Fantastic value and 4 absolutely splendid builds. You really can't ask more of a Creator 3 in 1 set. I could totally see people buying 4 of these.

6:18 🦀shark is gone🦀

That shark could be a cool megalodon since it’s pretty big

The 3 in 1 sets are almost always a good deal. Overall my favorite Lego series.

Jang: you could use the articulation in the crabs arms to make it dance Me: * crab Rave intensifies*

6:17 You know how the meme goes. *MY LEGO IS GONE* 🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀

3:01 I’m sure you can do something with these pieces Me:pls Jangbricks do something out of these

if i learned anything in the past semester, it's that squids have an excurrent siphon located centrally around the base of the head-foot.....they draw in water to the mantle cavity and expel it out via the siphon

Bravo to the designer of this set. The shark is so perfect, if you squint, it almost looks like an image of a real great white!

Wow I love this because aqua man

thank you jang, very cool

that's a really cool set

This is the first time I’ve wanted a 3 in 1 build really bad since I saw it in stores

What an absolute triumph of a set! If one is interested, even a little bit, in brick-built animals, I think it's not a stretch to call this one of Lego's best ever 3 in 1 sets!

Hey Jang. I think it will be really cool if after reviewing the official builds, you make your own build out the sets pieces, to show what you can do with the set. Thanks

Thank you so much for this review Jang, I’ve been waiting for it for a long time!

The Anglerfish is definitely my favorite :)

As regards to not being able to pose the shark head upwards, this doesn’t matter anyway as sharks cannot look upwards so it’s more realistic that it doesn’t move in that direction.

Nice video and a cool set!

awesome!

Nice! I have waited for this.

Great review as always!!!

Nice little set! Angler fish looks particularly scary!

This is one of the best 3 in 1 creator set in my opinion.

“Here we have a squid, deep fried especially, sweet and sour deep” haha 😂 that’s not what I excepted 😂 great review jang!

I love creator sets like this that can be used with minifigs

That squid looks super cool! I’m definitely getting this for the squid build!

I just love how you do the set details.

Wow that set looks awesome! I love the angler fish, the squid, shark especially and the side builds as well!! Am also glad they used dark blue in this set! Nice colour choice Lego.

cool been waiting for this one!

this is a great set, worth to have multiples

Very nice Creator set, we don't get many animals in this theme very often, and all of the creatures looks really nice in this set!

why is his voice this relaxing omg

Cool jang i love these i love the shark one but also the first one cause its interesting

6:20 crab rave intensifies 🦀

We’ve had our eyes on this set for a while and plan on getting it. At our Walmart it’s actually only $13. What a deal!

Good video!

Cool video

Hey Jang! I been watching your videos for a long time. Love your vids.

This is pretty cool, the shark would work as a giant shark in minifig scale!

Got this set for my birthday (I always ask for smaller Creator sets) and I love it!

I have been waiting for you to review this set

You're gonna need a bigger boat.

This seems like a real gem of a set. I wish they used trans black for the eye center and put the points on the crab shell though.

Sharks always look like their mouth is somewhat open. So not closing all the way is cool with me.

Hello Jang, Thank you for the review of this set. As it happens, this set sits on my shelf waiting to be build ... your video make me eager to go ahead with it (and get a second copy just for my parts collection ;) ) Stay awesome :)

hey JANG. I too think Angler Fish are cool and I like all these builds, thanks for the review as I am off to get a set.

cool prints for the eyes, and the technic eyes, cool mouth/teeth and lack of studs on the shark :)

9:41 The Imperial Assault Carrier, set 76106, uses a similar technique in the top segment, the "roof" if you will. It comes off to access the minifig interior of the ship and there are shafts (short lightsabre blades) that go through regular technic pins. They aren't used as detail like in this model, their only purpose is to allow this roof section to maintain it's shape. The technique is the same though.

Funny how the small print states that ‘Models do not float’, which is pretty accurate for swim bladder-lacking sharks... 😄

The best part about this set is that you can turn it into a squid shark with little modification.

So cool

might get 2, one to build as the anglerfish and one for the squid. or maybe the whale and squid, so they can fight in the way they do irl. pretty cool video Jang!

Cool

Excellent set and yes, the price is amazing, too, even more so if you buy it with further discounts. Lots of good parts and affordable enough to buy a full four sets to build all models at the same time .

That crab tho 😂

Nice!

Awe sweet you have ASMR Vids now :D

I flipping love that thumbnail!!!!

Hey, a tuned Squid! Doublejet Squid, awesome!😉

you should have included that whale build, it looks so good as well, this could be one of my favorite lego creator sets because i like all of the official builds

Hope all of those se critters end up in your underwater set up, or the angler fish would look cool in the melonbe district as part of a sea food places sign.

thanks

whelp now I have to go buy this set for the shark

I think Jang was hungry when he was building this.

its actually ok that the sharks mouth doesn't close completely since it is supposed to be a great white... great white sharks do close their mouths, however it always looks like there is a bit of a gap left between the jaws (no pun intended). i think this set captures that perfectly...

Jang:"you can make the crab dance"my mind:crab rave

I really like that shark.

if you have a light pointing at 1 of the shark's eyes the other one will light up very bright, as if there's a led in there. and the mouth of the shark really doesn't look that good fully closed. you can get it to close by removing the pink tongue piece, but it just looks odd. I initially bought this set for the squid, but ended up liking the shark a lot more. and another neat thing about the shark, if you hold it by the tail and the head you can make a very realistic shark swimming motion.

Bought the set yesterday for the Shark

A 15$ set were all four builds either good or great. I’m definitely getting this one.

LEGO did a relatively good job on all three of these creatures.

Technically, if you look up the gills of some sharks, you do actually see pink flesh, so the neck pivot with red on the interior might actually help the anatomy of the build.

Jaws: JANG riding on a Shark.

oh, I got this set for easter.

Just a heads up for whoever might come across this; as of this post, Amazon has these sets for $12. I grabbed two of them; kinda want to get another since I can't decide which alt build I like the most!

Omg I have this set and I absolutely love it. Nice video, and there are no squid or octopus that have two siphons.

I like how the inside bricks are red and white so if you remove any outside pieces then it looks like gore and battle damage.

You had that crab in a crab race pose

Reminds me of a old Creator set I got Years ago. Old Creator sets had about 7 Ideas and I remember that there was a Squid and Angler among the Shark on the box. Sadly I don't know the Set Number, so I can't tell which one it was. But this one tho. It's awesome. Definitely want it, and the price is fantastic.

The Atlantis Angler Attack 7978 was the ultimate lego angler fish.

switch out dark blue for black change the shart of the dorsal and tail fins, get rid of the gill slits and the rear fins, and you could turn that shark into an orca/killer whale. (and yes squids and octopi only have one siphon/funnel for jet propulsion)

Mini Jang is gonna need a bigger boat !!!

The angler fish reminds me of the old Transformers Sharkticons for some reason. 🙂

Sharks have vestigial tongues, meaning that they’re technically tongues but they don’t really help the shark eat.

I guess that you guys on the West Coast eat squid.... Huh... Thanks for the review! If this one goes on a discount I might buy a few for the great selection of parts.

I'm SOOOOO terrified of great white sharks!

I love the shark, but the crab is what ensured that I’m buying this set

I just got it today. AUD$15.20 down from $20 Moved the fin around so it wasn’t backwards.

KUDOS to you for a video greatly done!!!! 261 comments and only one of them mentioned what I thought when I first saw this set: squids have 10 tentacles!!! Octopuses have 8 tentacles. This deep sea cephalopod has only 6. But it's understandable due to the number of parts included. After all, the main build is the shark (which called it a Megalodon, the only deep-sea shark of that coloration). And I do have to thank Cednoug for that input. I mean, several viewers commented about the scientific name of the shark's tongue, but only one (now two) commented about the squid's missing tentacles. Really can't call it a squid if it has only 6 tentacles... But it's understandable. The squid was in combat with the sperm whale and lost four of its tentacles in the process. Tough battle. Now that observation is complete, I truly loved this 3 in 1 set!!! I'm also very thankful these sets are at least less than $20 because you HAVE to buy at least three of them to complete the builds. If they were more expensive, they shouldn't be 3 in 1 to begin with. I'm also thankful that some have alternative builds (like the Mighty Dinosaurs set). When Toys R Us (rumors through the Webvine that they may return under a different name....) went out of business last year, it was a great opportunity for me to buy multiple 3 in 1 sets for a reasonable price!!! Of course I'm planning on only buying three of this set (for the shark, "squid", and whale) because I don't like the angler fish. In my two cents opinion, the angler fish wasn't a good build. My only beef with buying multiple sets are the extra boxes and instructions (that's 8 separate instruction booklets to deal with! So my plan is to search BrinkLink for sellers with sets without the box and extra instructions. I ran into the same problem with my Mighty Dinosaurs sets. Oh well (how deep?), again, kudos to you for this video. It was very enjoyable and educational at the same time!!! Keep up the great work you do for this channel!!!! Thanks.

Put more jangs in sets
