that mechanism for the wings is awesome.

I like the brickVault one, but IMO the official lego one is the clear winner.

this review is so serious and intense I am literally sweating

Dr Kynes is also not a woman in the books…

I think this is the new standard for lego sets.

Whyd did sans the bluey in the show undertale game bluey with dogs? Referred??

Derek from BAM. I love the video! Crazy that you were able to keep the brick vault one together

Dayum I have resisted buying LEGO as an adult but this thing just seems like the best LEGO set ever created. Mechanical marvel, and it doesnt fall apart.

I would like the LEGO one. Problem however where to put it when the wings are folded out. My livingroom is quite narrow. I am 59, ghe ghe ghe.

i wish i had the pieces to modify the ornithopter to get rid of some of the color pieces

The blue dot Projekt 😂

IMO, the official Lego version wins on functionality of the wings and overall build quality - plus they are able to make new pieces to suit their needs. However, I bought the plans, and then made the Bricklink version last year and was very pleased with the overall detailing - some of which is more accurate than the Lego Co version - e.g. rear thruster vents, opening rear door, more main cabin room. Remember, also, that Lego produced the 'Royal Atriedes' version, and there were at least 3 versions in the first film. At some point I will take parts from the Lego Co version and update the Bricklink version - taking the best of both.

3:32 thats anakin skywalker in the backseat

Accuracy is always something thats difficult to achieve down to being 100% with a Lego model without sacrificing structural quality. I do think i agree on the official lego set being the winner here. Additionally, when i built the set, i had made sure to gather up enough parts from my collection to replace all the exposed red, yellow and blue pieces with exclusively black and light grey colored counterparts of the same pieces for a more realistic color pattern. Of course, all the inner mechanism parts, like the white linkage arms raising and lowering the ramp got to remain as they were, given i dont have pieces in good enough condition to replace them. Although, i personally have experienced a bit of a flaw with the set. The dark grey 2x3 plate right behind the wing flap trigger is a bit of a oversight, given it keeps getting pushed loose by the trigger. I might try and redesign the frame there to make a little more room for the trigger so it doesn`t push the plate loose.

The official Lego set can be easily modified to cover up those technic bricks, so that also mitigates the coloured bricks in the mechanism.

Please make more of these great reviews!!!

so the official is better in almost any single way, but there is no clear winner? coward.

I just watch dune last saturday I went nuts with the f**king movie it's a must see if you haven't seen the first

Yea- no I think there’s a pretty clear winner here

Definitely an official set. But I would try to customize the interior as much as possible

6:01 is that Gordon Freeman ? What is he doing there ? Is he stupid ?

Lego schon wieder mit farbseuche

I think the cockpit shape is THE WORST THING on the official model. It looks nothing like the movies version, in my eyes. Crazy how different our perspectives are on this. It's so obviously wrong to me.

why everyone loves the official one so much? it doesnt even look close like the movie one when i saw it i was like LOOL how could they fuck it up so much and then noticed everyone loves it, just why?

No disrespect to BrickVault but that one looks a bit more similar to the Harkonen ornithopter which is a bit more bulky and in the movie at least only has 6 wings, rather than the Atredies one which is sleek

I tweaked mine brick vault version with builder wings, which I extended in matter of both length and width and it adds a lot, build looks majestic. But it came ate price of heavy wings so I added join clips to make them more staple. Official set is very nice too, but it is hard to compare when it is made by someone who has access to movie set pieces and custom build is made by eye meassure only.

i love brickvault i have theier at-te and at-st model way more intricate way more detailed and a way higher piece count then the official lego alternative but in this case its a clear win to lego they have done a great job but still if you haven't went to brickvault site i seriously recommend such amazing high detailed models they sell instructions for.

You should check out the official ornithopter statue distributed by Dark Horse Direct. I have it and love it.

what i want is the lego set but in harkonnen black. and a premade kit to change all the red/yellow/blue bit to black. and maybe a set of instruction to make the harkonnen command beetle.

Классно, умерла от его пения и воскресла, люблю Эмине❤🥺❣️😩🥸💦🥸🥸💯🥸💅🏿😍😩👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨😩🥸😩😛💅🏿🤗🥴☺️❣️☺️🩸🤗🩸😛😨😘🎉

ᑐ ᑌ ᑎ ᕮ its called copy paste

so, I just wanna say MY GOD YOUR BUILD IS AMASING!! I LOVE IT, but I think i would rather get the official Lego one insted because it's less bulky up front and in the cockpit, and I would much MUCH rather modify it myself. I don't like the colored Technik parts either, so if I got that set I would modifiy it to fix that, AKA it's ONLY problem in my eyes.

Where did you get the gordon freeman minifg?I can't find it on aliexpress

Great review, very thorough

Great video mate! Enjoyed watching it and thank you for the nice comparison :)

I agree. This is one time where the official set outdoes the custom one. Impressive, Lego.

This time lego gets the win no question too bad they cannot seem to make pro contructions for horizon zero dawn a lost lego opportunity for the big money I would say other guys are making the bigger and cooler models using lego howeber lego only makes small scale pricey sets.

Where can I get the small ornithopter you use for reference?

I purchased the Lego one for the display accuracy

the front of the brickvault thopter looks more like a Harkonnen design I think it would have worked much better as a product in committing to the Harkonnen shape tbh, as it prevents it from being seen as "obsolete" thanks to the official set

Remove the tail from the brick vault on and can call it Rabbans ornithopter. It had no tail and was a very stout round design

Isn’t the brick vault one a kit of the regular orthothopter while the lego is of the royal one?

I want both

In my opinion the official model just has two cons. First the colored pins and bricks. Why, Lego? Why? I guess that can be fixed by everybody himself. The second thing is all those open ... how do you call those nupsies on top of the bricks where you put other bricks on top? The inofficial model uses many tiles to cover those parts and makes the whole model much much smoother. But I guess that also could be fixed with some additional tiles. So, yes I would also prefer the Lego model. Finally, a word about the cockpits. While the inofficial one may not be acurate, I think it looks better than the original. I like that bulky design.

If you just modify the cockpit interior of the official one, then you get the best of both worlds.

I'm hoping to have both. I have the Brickvault version and I'm looking for the official one

There were lots of spots on the official set where there are a ton of Technic parts (mainly all of the unused holes) that could have been covered up using plates and slopes to give it more of a finished look. Then again, some people like the Technic aesthetic and the set is quite popular so who am I to judge? Personally if I bought it I would just cover up as much as I could myself while stil retaining the awsome functional element of the set.

Nice comparison 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I get the Lego one for my birthday 🤩👍🏻

This is a really good idea for a video
