“for every fan that matters” is such a cold line. your unwavering favor for the average consumer always keeps me coming back to your reviews JANG

@owene2530 Месяц назад

Fr collectors who base their joy on elitism and exclusivity bring nothing to the table for the community

“Lego investors” when a five year old can get a minifig of their favorite character

@FlymanMS Месяц назад

They are no more than speculators

@quinlanbrown989 Месяц назад

BUT THE RESALE VALUE?!?!!!

@gumbobaba Месяц назад

"There is actually a major difference between these 2, and that is of course that this one came in a $13 set, HA" Fire quote

@se7ente3n Месяц назад

Finally, a RU-vidr who doesn’t scream and cry over Rex being in this. A Lego RU-vidr who actually is in touch with fans, not scammers and re-sellers

@MaraMash Месяц назад

A Lego youtuber that actually LIKES Lego and isn't just in it for views and profit? UNBELIEVABLE!

@krisstasko Месяц назад

My favorite thing is that this set made scalpers cry.

@erikpng Месяц назад

As many have said, if you buy an UCS set for the figures... That's on you.

@coraldiamond1922 Месяц назад

Yea if you have £500s worth of money to spend on a big set like that then complaining about it seems very silly when they could have just waited to buy this for like £13. Not too mention they get a very big nice looking ship plus Yularen is still exclusive.

@PraetorianGard410 Месяц назад

This set is indeed a win for every LEGO Star wars fan. It’s just not a win for the scalpers, investors, and influencers who pretended to be “for the fans”.

@brickcats Месяц назад

"A win for every fan that matters" 🤣 Love it. So true.

@leguac4187 Месяц назад

this review hits harder than 2008

@cyanimation1605 Месяц назад

ouch, my family

@heatherfar1977 Месяц назад

Titles like this are why Jang is the GOAT.

@GIAN212 Месяц назад

I hadn't even read the title before reading your comment😂, I clicked on the video as soon as it appeared on my homepage

@DuckBricks Месяц назад

JANG is BASED as usual

@EL-uj1pl Месяц назад

I heard a great cry, as if a bunch of scalpers screamed in an immature, squeaky rage..

@mostly_3rd_trombone869 Месяц назад

A day when the LEGO ‘investor’ group cries over a toy losing its resale value is always a good day. You bought a $650 SET, not a $650 minifigure. Very excited to get this one.

@GreatGatzB Месяц назад

2:12 you’ll always be a real one for this, Jang 😂

@monadoboy9639 Месяц назад

As someone who purchased the Venator for the giant VENATOR that proudly sits on my shelf this set makes me so happy Everyone should be able to get the Rex minifigure if you brought the Venator just for Rex that's your own fault

@LordHysteric Месяц назад

I am so grateful that collectors who don't have $1,000 to spend on Lego's can buy Captain Rex for $13. I understand why Venator buyers are upset but also we shouldn't be mad at each other for it. We all have mutual love for a series, lets just enjoy it and the fact that money doesn't gatekeep our enjoyment.

@FlymanMS Месяц назад

If they were not buying Venator for the Venator, they can only blame themselves

@lukestarkiller1470 Месяц назад

The only people who are upset are the ones who like to gatekeep. They like to either act superior to others by owning something that’s unobtainable to the rest of us, or they’re the people who buy things just to sell at ridiculous prices and only pretend to actually care about owning them so that they can make people want to buy them. So this is 100% a win for everyone who just loves Lego Star Wars.

@kathy444 Месяц назад

If someone is evenly remotely mad about this figure being made more widely accessible. They do not have your best interests in mind.

@Regeor Месяц назад

I’m glad they didn’t downgrade the minifigure. Once we saw that Lego is willing to give us a Rex of this quality, it would’ve been unnecessary to make it worse for the cheaper set.

@Llortor Месяц назад

I agree, it's really nice to get a high quality minifigure in an affordable set, as opposed to cheap minifigures bloating the price of a vehicle

@coraldiamond1922 Месяц назад

Exactly. After all it makes sense from a production point of view to include the same figure.

@mercaptan097 Месяц назад

It's great how these Star Wars reviews don't overly complain about no waistcapes or helmet holes like most other reviewers. It's quite refreshing.

@OldJohann Месяц назад

Jang is a real one. That's why we watch him.

@The_AGL_Group Месяц назад

A $13 Rex is a win for kids and adults everywhere. I prefer the Phase 1 design, but either way I'm not turning down the opportunity to get a major character (especially a very good minifigure rendition) for a reasonable price. Already dug out an old black plastic kama from 2008 to add onto him.

@RiksGamingChannel Месяц назад

everything about this video is a common Jang W, bro's one of the most chill and wholesome LEGO content creators out there and I'll always appreciate him for that

@B-Mag Месяц назад

an L for the Investors and Scalpers is a W for the community

@theaces3697 Месяц назад

im so glad Lego is fighting against these scummy 30+ yr olds who just horde sets and rip people off

@triplea5470 Месяц назад

Thank you for not making this video unnecessarily long and ranting, nice to just hear someone talk about the actual build lacklustre as it may be

@Nerdtendo6366 Месяц назад

I definitely think Lego needs to stop using “Exclusive” as a term to avoid situations like this, but putting Rex in a $13 set is fantastic

@RayoMcQueen95990 Месяц назад

Nah, multiple sets and other media always use the term exclusive to refer to them being only avaliable in that place for a limited time. Scalpers and RU-vidrs are just salty that they can’t sell their Rex for hundreds of dollars on Bricklink/whatnot

@heisenberg6142 Месяц назад

It was exclusive, at the time. They never promised it would be exclusive forever

@Jar_Jar_Twinks Месяц назад

the only place it was referred to as exclusive was in the instruction book. i'm pretty sure the set designer wrote it, not someone in marketing

@coraldiamond1922 Месяц назад

Except from the fact that the only time it was mentioned as exclusive was in the instruction manuals. Not anywhere on the box so most people wouldn't realise until they purchased it so it wasn't misleading. But yes they shouldn't have said exclusive.

@GrazyX13 Месяц назад

Im so happy to finally have a rex for my 501st!! It's amazing to see the fake fans and scalper types crying as well. Great review!!

@aloadofhupla9764 Месяц назад

Jang thank you for always keeping it real. Feels like every other Lego channel on here just does sponsored reviews now and are out of touch with the cost consumers have to pay. Been watching you for years and will keep watching as long as you stick around

@jamesrees920 Месяц назад

Scalpers getting what they deserve 😂

@kingkarmaah8847 25 дней назад

A certain popular LEGO Star Wars YTer blocked me for calling out his complaints about this as extremely privileged and out of touch. I'm proud to be a longtime subscriber of a channel that speaks the minds of ACTUAL fans and not spoiled adults that collect 10000 copies of the same figure to display on 48x48 grey baseplates.

@Luke_SkywaIker Месяц назад

I love Jang’s integrity and sense of humor 😂

@DropDownBear Месяц назад

Jang, you're a godsend. I always come back to your review as someone who distances themselves from some members of the LEGO adult community due to their behaviour, you never fail to acknowledge that ultimately we're collecting toys from a company that, first and foremost, for children! They're fun building toys, and the fun should be the point, not scalping plastic for hundreds of dollars! Thanks for keeping it real, dude

@Windhox_cz Месяц назад

An acceptable pile of pieces. Oh. And it also has Rex in it.

@samuelosullivan9932 Месяц назад

I think it’s nice Lego allowing us to get these figures without spending $700

@hostiledodo1150 Месяц назад

Since they've started the microfighter and mech lines I only felt excitement because I like collecting minifigs but I don't have the space for the big playsets some of the figures I want come in. Something like this is purely a win because I don't have to spend several hundred dollars to get a minifig of my favorite clone

@tabletopstudios66 Месяц назад

Always love when Jang puts out another Lego Star Wars review.

@Zaney616 Месяц назад

This is the greatest LEGO set EVER. The details, the value, it's all perfect. The Rex minifigure is fine too, I guess.

@skinnyj123 Месяц назад

It's amazing to get such a popular character in such a cheap set! I remember being a kid and never being able to afford a rex figure so i put blue arms on a regular clone from the 2009 battlepack to replicate him so It's awesome to see that kids nowadays can get him much easier.

@yoy5903 Месяц назад

Its good that lego is giving kids/people who arent willing to spend a fortune a way to get memorable or important characters

@Bills4life59 Месяц назад

I love that you get extra visors and range finders in this set. It was great since it allowed me to customize more of my clones.

@harrisonpennington5784 Месяц назад

Thank you for not talking about the “Lego lied” controversy, a real Lego review from a real person. Yet again, Jang is a class-act.

@thechristguard1551 Месяц назад

I do agree with your views on this set Jang, it is a great way for collectors and fans to not have to dish out hundreds of dollars just for one figure, I know for myself I wouldn't have spent that much money on a figure, so as a collector and a fan I am very grateful for this set.

@Sb142sf Месяц назад

Dude you are the goat. These other reviewers who get the sets most hard working people cant get complain that this is the same rex. But you keep it real man. Most people are glad to get a Rex that isnt 100 dollars.

@TheTTTEFan 17 дней назад

Jang is a real inspiration, someone who is happy for the fact you can get fan favourite characters in cheep sets and doesn’t care about “exclusively” Keep up the great work Jang :)

@nightelfuser Месяц назад

As someone who keeps a lot of sets in MISB condition, I'm actually pleased with this release. "Investing" on a set because of a rare minifigure is the dumbest thing ever, because minifigs get reissued often, and almost always in much cheaper sets. This will teach scalpers a good lesson, but I'm not holding my breath on that. Now I would love to see Darth Malak in a microfighter, or perhaps operating one of those mechs.

@rowancucanic Месяц назад

Such a great title, that really encapsulates my thoughts on the set

@Pickles-1738 Месяц назад

@motomoto4361 Месяц назад

I’ve never impulsively purchased a set at full price within the first week of release

@PotPynamite Месяц назад

Wow, callout in the title! 😆 Very excited to pick one up myself, I've wanted a P2 Rex for so long but they were so expensive before now!

@BDD_Builds Месяц назад

Huh, that UCS Venator is a much smaller build than I remember 🤣

@JoylessBurrito 28 дней назад

Gotta say, it was absolutely hilarious seeing the scalpers desperately trying to get this thing off the shelves when it dropped. I ordered mine on backorder and had it within 2 weeks, meanwhile people were unironically listing them for $50 the same day it released

@frogmouth2 Месяц назад

I think this whole situation was very revealing for how much certain people don’t care for consumers and how tired most of us are of said people. I’m not even really a Star Wars fan but seeing this all unfold has been crazy. Especially because now the set is basically sold out everywhere. Hopefully we see more casual consumer Ws.

@apple_chompling9433 Месяц назад

Win for fans L for the bad scalpers good review as always jang!

@hunstie4858 Месяц назад

So glad Rex is in an affordable set. Awesome video Jang as always!

@bingisbahn3374 Месяц назад

Glad to see an appreciation for the normal person Jang, you rock!

@brentdaelman4153 Месяц назад

they should've put a battle damaged rex in the venator or something. i'm so happy i can finally afford the most popular clone in all of star wars without selling a kidney

@michaelkaduck1915 Месяц назад

So glad to have Rex back in his Phase 2 Gear for a good price! And the Microfighter itself looks good, and the peices are great!

@utorner123 Месяц назад

We need more sets like this, small and not incredibly expensive for those who want the figures and the play features. This is good for children and adults without thousands of dollars to burn on lego.

@tomjames9681 Месяц назад

A really decent comparison to make with this is something Hasbro has done a lot recently. Hasbro have a habit, with their Transformers line, of releasing an okay version of a figure and acting like it will be the only release for that character, then releasing a better version long after the release of the first. You’re encouraged to buy a worse version because to you, you have no idea there will be better release, or that you will even have a choice at some point. LEGO on the other hand, keep their expensive stuff around for very long periods of time, and they released this set in a time period that overlapped the UCS Venator. You never had to worry about stocks of sets with Rex. If you want Rex, you can get him in this, or if you want the Venator too, you can get that. There’s no fomo or pressure.

@legojangofett1088 27 дней назад

Got this for my little brother and I felt devilishly great doing so. A kid gets a set with a figure of one of his favorite characters without breaking the bank or caving in to scalpers. Lego is great for doing this

@zdeneksitar560 Месяц назад

Finally a Captain Rex minifigure I can affford.....long have I waited!

@lbricks7631 Месяц назад

I got nothing against Lego investors making a good turnaround on the side, but when they start gatekeeping widely released Lego sets to protect their investment it pisses me off. Thanks again Jang!

@anyoneoriginal Месяц назад

I personally think this was such a good thing for fans to be able to get their hands on! Can’t wait to get a few so I can have a captain Rex in all 5 of my 501st Mocs!

@Benjamin0119 Месяц назад

"This figure is different in one way... it came in a $13 set! HA!" I love you, JANG! 🤣 And quite fitting it was a Y-Wing set that did this, my favorite starfighter, heh.

@Smiley1701 Месяц назад

As someone that owns the UCS Venator, love that they put Rex in a set like this. He's such a popular character and deserves to be easily accessible (not to mention that UCS sets should be about the set and not the figures so their exclusive figures are dumb anyway)

@GoodGuyGeno Месяц назад

So glad to be able to get one of my favourite characters at a good price!

@kymonkeyboy6844 Месяц назад

Love that title Jang!

@Booey_Animations Месяц назад

That title is so perfect! Jang is speaking the truth!

@terminatort9254 Месяц назад

That video title… perfect.

@PerovNigma Месяц назад

I love that Microfighters are still a thing, and I hope they continue to come out. They're a great way to build up a collection of iconic ships without sacrificing lots of money, time, and shelf space. Plus, I'm grateful that the Captain Rex here isn't exclusive to the Venator. That said, I'm still unsatisfied with the suggestion of a kama on recent clones. I'd prefer legs with side prints and dual molding, or a cloth piece with holes in the back so he can sit on studs.

@Jar_Jar_Twinks Месяц назад

i want everyone to keep in mind that lego never "advertised" the figure as exclusive to the venator. the only place it was referred to that way was one page in the instruction book. it wasn't on the lego listing or amazon listing. nobody got scammed because they bought the venator thinking it was exclusive. anybody saying that is just saying it to complain because lego star wars "fans" are addicted to complaining. lego did pretty much everything perfectly, so these people are grasping at straws for things to complain about.

@mabey8048 Месяц назад

not to mention lego has worded stuff similarly in the past and didn't actually mean it would be forever exclusive

@simonawad9656 Месяц назад

I love the micro fighter line and I’m so excited to add this to my collection! Great review as always Jang!

@gasonfeist7238 Месяц назад

Makes a lot of people happy and messes with LEGO 'investors'? Good stuff

@adriansue8955 Месяц назад

"Exclusivity" is Toxic Lego should stop using that kind of marketing. Stuff should have intrinsic value because its cool and fun, not because it was artificially limited.

@spamhands6993 Месяц назад

This is an absolute win and also should be the norm, for a main character. It'd be ludicrous if Ahsoka, Clone Wars Anakin, or Clone Wars Obi-Wan were only sold in one set from years ago or only in a 650 USD UCS set, like this version of Captain Rex.

@threadcoder19 Месяц назад

Finally, a reviewer that isn't complaining about "exclusivity." I feel that it should be easily available

@Zenlore6499 Месяц назад

Very happy to be able to get this! That’s such a great Rex, and he’ll go great with Fives!

@Kix447 Месяц назад

Loved how he didn't review the set for 10% of the video and ranted about Rex for the rest of it

@worldsheaviestjamband93 Месяц назад

@isthepizzaforyouandme Месяц назад

love the title. 100% agree

@riffska Месяц назад

Oh Rex minifig wanters REJOICE. Sure he doesn't come with the little side cloth thing but man, for that price it ain't too bad! gonna use one of those minifig stands and prop him up at my desk when I get him lol

@thepartydontstoptilliwalkin Месяц назад

I have no need for microfighters or minifigs, but I consider buying this purely to laugh at the "investors" who bought the Venator just for the minifigure.

@kaspersaldell Месяц назад

Couldn't agree more with that title :D

@OnlySlightlySad03 Месяц назад

That title is brutal lol. Very true though

@VersatileFunDesigns Месяц назад

I'm glad LEGO made this microfighter since I would have never been able to get the giant UCS Venator! It's a great way to get Rex without spending an arm and a leg Next time they should be more careful with their instructions so we don't have to hear endless complaints from people who got a giant UCS set just for the minifigs!

@EL-uj1pl Месяц назад

Nah. Let the scalpers scream.

If they're buying a $650 set for 4 pieces then they have bigger problems

@ianroe1076 Месяц назад

The fact they were able to include this figure unchanged in such an inexpensive set highlights how ridiculous the lack of a Kama in the Venator version is. Fantastic that this figure was made more available in either case, I just wish the $700 set version didn't have the same design issues.

@wesandell Месяц назад

I felt a great disturbance in the Force … as if millions of "investors" suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

@tawink Месяц назад

I'm glad LEGO is purposefully undermining investing. It's a good thing for us normal consumers. I hope they keep re-releasing figures so scarcity and exclusivity is a thing of the past... but there is that whole CMF thing... get rid of those blind boxes too!

@bahatiwhiteclaw4540 Месяц назад

I’m so, so happy they released this set with a full-quality Rex as in the Venator. I bought the Venator for the set itself (I’d been waiting and hoping for a UCS Venator since 2005) but I know a huge draw to that set was the Rex figure, so to see it made available at such a reasonable price point in this micro fighter is just wonderful! It’d be nice to see Lego release a Midi-scale Venator as well sometime and perhaps even a revised mini Venator in some form too! Thank you Jang for your brilliant reviews - they’re unbiased, informative, concise and oftentimes, they’re what I turn to as a decider if I’m on the fence about a given Lego model!
