Touring the LEGO Factory in Denmark! 

The fact this mad lad starts every episode walking backwards down a twisting stairway absolutely LITTERED with Lego and doesn't hit a single one or miss a single step means there must be some dark magic or something involved on this channel

This guy must be very familiar with his room layout to be confident enough to walk backwards past all those sets for a minute straight

7:55 those black tubes are just water lines either cooling or heating the mold. The plastic is injected from the back from a massive barrel that is extremely hot.

The intro will be remembered as one of the best long shots in movie history.

Not saying this is why but it's a huge plus for Lego that you've won Lego Masters. You've gotten a huge boost in your relationship with Lego and making content with this new found success for your own channel also helps Lego PR-wise. It's basically Free Advertising+ for them, not that they needed it anyway. Guess it's really a win-win for everyone, even viewers of your channel. Can't speak for the other contestants lol

Goinq down the stairs, walking backwards around your priceless lego collection, looking straight at the camera and speaking eloquently about the topic of the video. Each of these is a skill hard enough now imagine it ALL AT THE SAME TIME! Impressive.

That's crazy cool!

I'm pretty sure the rubber tubes at 7:45 are feeding the machines soup. They work very hard all day and need their sustenance

The other day I dug out an old book I have, “The World of LEGO Toys”, from 1987, which includes a chapter all about the manufacturing process as well as packaging. I was really hoping that you’d get to show them packing the boxes up close as I suspect the general process probably hasn’t changed much between then and now. The book specifically points out the surprising amount of automation for the time and that there weren’t many employees roaming around. It also found at least seven different ways to brag about how high LEGO’s standards of quality are compared to any other company that produces injection-molded plastic products.

Wow, thank you, Chris and Robert! and thank you to LEGO for letting you publish this! I loved seeing LEGO manufcaturing in action. LEGO has such an amazing system for manufacturing all these bricks and pieces and getting those to the many millions of customers around the world. Definitely the Ministry of LEGO Magick.

Incredible! What an experience to be given such access!! Thank you for thinking of your subscribers along the way and capturing it for all of us to see as well!

Gotta love the consistency of being placed on LAN probation and yet allowed unprecedented access with video recording of unreleased sets 😅

thank you for letting use take part in this unique experience!

I am so glad you guys got to experience this first hand! 💪

The sheer engineering and craftmanship to design the moulds and machines, let alone the lego, is just incredible. I am also a diehard warhammer hobbiest, and its rare to ever get to see the duel, and now quad, injection machines. It is an extremely high skilled job, and most people in the industry are snapped up by big medical companies (thats where the real money is in mould design now), so seeing how amazing these factories are is like art in itself. So thankyou for showing this. It makes me appreciate what it takes to get our hobby in our hands.

This was super sick!! Thank you so much for sharing!

Fascinating. Congrats on your win and getting the tour. Thank you for sharing.

This has been an incredible tour, indeed! Thanks for the insightful overview!!

So cool getting to see factory up close!

the bionicle shrine 😂

I acually went to the factory too glad u had a fun time

Enjoyed the watch, thank you!

Thanks to you for giving Lego a channel that is only focus of the brand to be seen as a wonderful toy. That is why Lego can intrust in you and not others. It is a hard line to hold but you have the past history to prove it.

One of the most fascinating videos yet! Incredible footage of the LEGO factory in Billund!

I'm so glad he didn't accidentally walk into something and destroy the whole room in the intro. That would've given me a heart attack.

I came to this video because I'm currently updating the fire alarm system to a lego factory and as cool as LEGOs are, this dude has an unhealthy enthusiasm of a toy. Glad he can make a living off of it

The deep storage part was insane.

So we all agree that this guy uploads the best Lego content on RU-vid right?

That's amazing. Way more sterile, and far more robotic arms than I expected Love the random enigmatic Bionicle Totem Maybe it's trying to summon Gen 3

Lego: "How many lego sets would you like to buy today?" DuckBricks: "Yes."

Awesome!

2:12 You nailed the pronunciation. Cheers from Denmark!

hope you had a good time in our country!

That was so awesome!!!!

Really surprised they let you film. I did the Insiders tour in October and they were very firm about no filming. So this is very lucky indeed.

I am seriously feeling my shirt getting caught on one of those LEGO models as he's walking backwards.

all of the people at lego panicking because they forgot they told him the pink tire rule then used them in a set.

the tour was sick

Really cool tour 😎 let me watch that again and again 😍

I am so happy that you won Lego Masters!🎉

Every intro i am convinced hes going to fall down those stairs and wipe out all the stuff on the walls.

The random Bionicle figure in the factory is right next to a trophy, a pink house, and two castle sets. It could be either a reward/trophy shelf for an unknown contest, or prototypes for other sets.

Very cool stuff

legend

I work in manufacturing. Very cool to see their setup and how they do injection molding.

Keep up the great work. Congratulations on getting first place.

Awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻

of all things im really interested in seeing more of the sprues, i wanna see how they arrange parts on them, it’s something ive been curious about for a while now

Holy shit. The dream tour of every AFOL

I stilI still have a piece from a mould we made as a test for Lego 10-15 years ago, Amazing place :) :)

Pretty damn cool!, thank your sharing this!

Truly a Willy Wonka expernice! Which I also guess the wearhouse at the end is where the Denmark Pick a brick orders is picked from. And thanks for sharing looked like you guys had a blast!

Had no idea you had a RU-vid channel and I’m so happy I just found it. Congrats on winning Lego masters and can’t wait to see more awesome content like this 🎉

What an awesome experience and video thank you for sharing.

0:50 Good lord I think you have more Lego than any factory.

Super cool insight. Plastic injection is a cool process and the molds aren’t cheap. A lot of robotics in this facility not many factory workers.

That’s sick, you guys are awesome and I wish I could come to your Lego room. My mom wouldn’t let me have that much Lego

After seeing the endless bins at the end, I REALLY want a horror game set in a LEGO factory in which the monsters build themselves out of Lego with the signature lego building sound.

That’s awesome 🤩 , thank you for sharing!

I love that at the start of this video I was like "this guy looks familiar, how do I know him? OH YEAH! Atrioc watched all 9 hours of the Bionicle video" lmao

My wife said I had too much stuff, it's around 50 anime figures. I sent her this video and now I can add 50 more, thanks duckbricks!

So, how do they get so precise with some of the dual molded elements like the dual molded legs? For example, is it just feeding the right amount of plastic in with a 50/50 ratio? Thanks for the tour.

For info, the tubes at the side of the mold carry coolant water, not plastic. The plastic comes form behind the fixed side of the mold, behind that part is a heated tube with a hydraulic piston that pushes the plastic into the mold. Also these are cold runner molds, meaning the mold makes the Lego parts and a bit of plastic called the "sprue" that gets ground back into plastic and put back into the machine.

Love your videos duckbricks!

9:10 It's actually a "tire cutter". The tires are already molded but the center needs to be cut out

Being able to walk backwards while talking to the camera and not bumping into the sets is a skill!!!

awesome

I remember when you had like < 6k subscribers. You've grown so much & still more to go congrats

How do they collect all the pieces for a set? Is it all done manually and how do they prevent missing pieces?

Anyone feel like a cool kid because you followed duckbricks before their Lego masters win? This is definitely a wish child-me (and still adult-me) come true: modern Lego pieces being made. And the fact the bionicle still lives, is amazing!

It's nice to see how clean the warehouse, factory, robots and all the equipment, etc are. Very interesting video!

Very cool 👍👍👍

Soo cool ❤🥳

Your collection is so impressive but I wonder it must take a while to dust your sets. I find it cool to see your ships hanging from the ceiling but Id be afraid to try that with my ships in case one drop on the ground. Still its great to see your collection and your visit in Billund Thanks for sharing your passion with us

My man, when is your set going to be released and how close will it be to your design?

Who is the biggest tire manufacturer in the world? Yes, Lego, not Michelin.

9:12 Eyy, a Kuka Robot! Nice. Greetings from Augsburg in Germany where those are produced

Gonna save some minifigs for the rest of us. jesus. that's one hell of a collection :D

"the 2 tubes" don't inject plastic. There part of the cooling circle and just contain water. The plastic gets injected on the opposite side of where the parts leave on the conveyor belt. Tubes would just break as the plastic gets injected with around 1000 bar (14500 psi).

When you see that amount of Legos being produced. One could wonder if they really can not push prices down to make it affordable for more kids. I think LEGO is making a mistake when kids can not go to the store and buy a set for themself to play with. Also, many parents rather buy a cheap app and the kid will be entertained instead of buying and expensive LEGO set. In the long run, they will lose their customer base.

Wowza!

thank you so much for showing this off, you were my favorite team to watch on the show. my favorite episode/ build was probably the chair or the car(and the finale obviously). Also, when is your lego set going to be in stores in canada?

i really like how lego cares about the community, really hope they bring back lego bionicle tho

7:53 Those hoses are actually for water lines to cool the plastic once it's injected. Kind of like how water moves through an engine block to cool a motor. The Gate where the plastic comes out you wouldn't be able to see from this view. It's usually located in A side of the mold in the center.

this made me drool on both ends😮‍💨

Hey its our Lego Masters! any word on when your Wonderliner set will be unveiled?

I was really hoping to see how they go from big bins of parts to sealing them up into sets. That has to be automated aswell... Right???

If this was in only in the Top 10 of your LEGO experiences, I'd love to know what you other experiences were that beat this one.

Very awesome to see BTS of the factory

How do you keep everything clean?

The tubes on the mold should be water that goes into the mold to keep it at the right temperature.platic actually gets injected into mold through an opening in the mold from a chamber that cooks the plastic to correct melting temp. Then into mold to cool down.

Interesting. Many sites were selling the Lego set with pink tyres in Dec 2023. Also if you have a toy shop etc, the trade shows in January are great to attend and if you're able to get an appointment with Lego, you'll get to sign an NDA and can get a look at the upcoming sets for the entire year prior to them being released. I have done this many times in London. Their stand is basically a huge Lego Brick enclosed so you can't see inside like other booths. But it's fun to see the sets for the entire year before everyone else does (and of course place certain orders, especially as most of us placed some of the Christmas orders by March (9 months early!). Sadly LEGO are not very good at delivering what is ordered though, it's about 50/50 whether or not they deliver on exactly what you ordered unlike other toy sellers/distributors. LEGO definitely like creating demand and underproducing on purpose, as well as not caring too much for independent businesses/toy stores selling Lego. But the LEGO reps were always nice.

Hi im a little newer to lego so I was wondering how do u exactly hang one of the lego painting sets like the Great Wave?

Hey guys I don’t know for sure but I think this guy might, MIGHT, like Lego. Idk just a hunch

Does anyone know: are the sorting / packaging machines at Billund, or are they at some other factory?

Nicely done. Is there a machine for each shape of Lego out there . I love your displays in your home the most .

if he says "unprecedented access" one more time

I am a huge fan of the Lego Masters series and I loved all of the builds you have made.

It’s amazing how much work goes into each individual piece… having to get all those pieces into all the sets is what I would love to see next

I understand why the rubber tire rims are so expensive now 😂
