Bricking News | Dec 31, 2024 | Another Year of Lego Comes to a Close

[@yetisayshi-36]

I’m a Patriots fan.. glad to hear Alex enjoyed Super Bowl 49 as much as I did

[@tynovel]

I love Alex's awesome rant about gummy bears being ruined! It was funny to watch, especially Jason asking Alex to try out the yellow gummy bear.

[@DiyHobbyist-1010]

Thanks for a fantastic year of viewing. Thanks for forever altering our way of saying "space" as it somehow changes to "spaaaace" without thought and sometimes including arm gestures. I have found myself using "irregardless" occasionally in a meeting. One time, even got a funny glance from a coworker. I now look forward to Tuesdays and the release of another podcast. Take heart Alex, some of us share your rants. The banter between the two of you makes the podcast worth watching. Why not include the wives for a Valentine week episode? I think it would make for a great watch having the four of you go back and forth. Jason, I have to side with Alex, the sofa must go in order for the city to expand and thrive 🙂. I hear standing is good for the body. I still think your episode with the Indiana Jones sand swap skit is one of your best. I chuckle just thinking about it. May your channels "view long and prosper" . All the best in the new year.

[@DelsynsBrickBuilds]

The story with the pink droid is actually really nice, I suggest looking into it if you haven't.

[@dj3733]

Appreciation post for Jason. He really makes these videos fun , not like his other videos that are boring 😂. Always has topics and is prepared unlike the other guy who just shows up. But good banter between both guys.

[@SHYTIMEismyTIME]

lol If Jamie Berard says it's a modular... it's a modular haha. Happy New Years you two... cheers to another year!

[@brickartisan]

Happy new year everyone! I watched this while building the tudor modular. Very casual and relaxing (except for the visible tension during the agree/disagree segment of the market street 🤣)

[@DanielEstes88]

-Part when Josh tries the Gummy Bears soaked in Sprite. He said the texture was like snow, Then Jason tells him to try the "yellow one". Did anybody not catch that? You NEVER try the yellow snow. Even when they say, "It's lemon flavored". I would, I mean, my friend would know. Happy New Year!

[@tynovel]

I literally LOL when Jason said "They had some things that were impressive. Like a woody that was 6 foot tall."

[@BrickTsar]

On the Modulars the best proof is that market street appears on boxes of other modular sets.

[@chriscummings4206]

I'm here for the production values, and that content creators can learn an awful lot from these two.

[@TheSwedishOak]

It's funny how BrickTsar always rant about everything and says that everyone (especially The LEGO Group and what they do) is wrong, but when there is something that he think is proof for his opinions then it's 100% correct and right. Narcissism at it's finest.

[@MartyBricks]

Happy new year guy and other guy! Thanks for all the great entertainment in 2024, looking forward to see what madness you will bring us is 2025!

[@onecleverpig]

Also when Mindy tries the gummy bears and says "hmm theyre interesting". Thats exactly what the judges sound like on childrens cooking shows when they are fed garbage, but don't want to hurt feelings

[@JimboBricks]

Jaabo’s video and discussion points are perfect with video evidence

[@tynovel]

Earl was so happy he got a Ghostbuster firehouse he is calling it a Feudhouse

[@TheOtherGuys2]

That Brickfest sounds pretty interesting actually. Not a kid, and I don't have kids, but I find that the level of separation there obviously has to be at Lego conventions between people and the displays makes it hard for me to see things close enough to appreciate all the details I'd like to. So, short of that, a lot of interactive events would be pretty fun! I've always wanted to try one of those ones where you build a car and race it on those tracks. Some of the other things sounded cool too, like all those white towers, and making spaceships.

[@soniaholcombe7002]

I’m with you Alex, leaving the house during the holidays is a struggle. The traffic, crowds, weather, etc. 😢 I try to start my Christmas shopping in early November. 😂

[@johnpowell2431]

The looks on your faces while eating the gummies said it all.😂 The best part was that you kept eating them knowing it was not good.😮 Then Jimmy looking at Festivus. You could tell he was figuring out how he could destroy it.

[@BrickTsar]

I can’t remember which one was Coy or Vance

[@Mardigrasman23]

Market street is a modular. And so is the Ghostbusters Futehouse.

[@DelsynsBrickBuilds]

Happy New Years Officially!

[@tynovel]

I think Jason should be happy that he goes over once a month and Alex doesn't complain about him going over and being socialable for hours on the camera!

[@pastajensen]

MTV, It was great back in the days, that and VIVA for German Techno/Dance/rave 🥳

[@judy3973]

I had timers on my lamps. People got the message that it was time to go home when the lights started going out. Yes, it is exhausting to be sociable. Even more so now that I am “older”.

[@TheOtherGuys2]

Here's an idea: what if, just to add some Lego content to this ostensibly Lego-themed podcast, you have a small assortment of Lego bricks on the table while you're talking. It wouldn't be the focus or anything, just something that you can idly build with during the episode.

[@TheSwedishOak]

I agree with Alex. The Market Street is not in the regular modulars line.

[@pastajensen]

Happy new year guys, I will finish this (hopefully) Epic episode next year.

[@guleri]

Ed O'Neill is geat! Al Bundy is an iconic role. Every time I see Ed O'Neill in a movie or on a tv show, my first thought is "Oh, Al Bundy!"

[@Mardigrasman23]

Can we have a brought to you Scotties Commercial every week please

[@DelsynsBrickBuilds]

On the marvel modulars they have the technic pins lined up for modulars. I'm with Alex, all of the modulars WITH the pins are modulars.

[@pastajensen]

I share a lot of Alex's sentiment about being social.

[@abrickinthewall]

Do the Napoleon episode please. Best film of all time 🤣

[@onecleverpig]

YES PLEASE NAPOLEON EPISODE, LETS GO. You guys need a skit wherein Jason is upset for doing all the editing. *begin scene Jason: "Alex hasn't done flippin anything." Alex: "Jason, you're just jealous because I have been talking to hot babes online all day." You can build from there, I reckon

[@BrickTrains]

I subbed to Jason 3 times, hope that helps.

[@Mardigrasman23]

Well I know it’s bad if Mindys not giggling

[@TheSmilingKlingon]

"I’ve been wondering, based on instructions available online, what exactly makes a LEGO set 'official'? Is it only considered official if you buy it in a box, or can it still be considered official if you piece it together yourself, assuming there are no exclusive stickers or unique pieces involved?"

[@JimboBricks]

You need to talk about the best animal ever…the Liger

[@DelsynsBrickBuilds]

Selling something that's numbered is so wild. I'm surprised they would even attempt it. But I guess rubbing the number off helps.

[@MayoHosko]

finished sorting LEGO. I’m exhausted. i need a LEGO break

[@johnpowell2431]

If its an enclosed building on a plate that will connect with the other modulars in your city then yes it's a modular. Makes no difference on who designed it or what label it falls under. So yes the Avengers tower, the Daily Bugle, etc are still modulars. If I design and build one it's still a modular. Don't care what is considered official or not. If you build a complete gas station or anything else that would be in a real town/city and it connects to your city then it's a modular. It doesn't have to be the same old restaurant, donut shop, or apartment to be a modular. In fact we need a larger variety of modulars.

[@TheOtherGuys2]

Frist! Couldn't resist. Also, I'm only three minutes in, but at the rate this is going I think by about July of 2025 this podcast is going to upload an episode that's literally just the full, uncut Napoleon Dynamite movie. :P

[@Dusty_King]

The critters in Critters are called Crites and you didn't even make a Klingon joke with the toilet scene. Long time viewer first time commentor. Also does Alex enjoy the clips Jason adds when he watches the podcast? The superman mech works because lex luthor has kryptonite and superman needs shielding from it, also when you were talking about fuel prices the other episode i live in wales and fuel costs £1.30.9 a litre. Earl don't worry you aren't the only one who doesn't have a Ghostbusters firehouse. Dusty. That's my nickname. PS any chance you could make the afool podcast sponsor video on its own it was brilliant and I can't remember which video it's at the end of.

[@FivertonGal]

Oct 1, 2024: AFoOL brought to you by Bricking News. Aug 1, 2023: Bricking News brought to you by the AFoOL podcast.

[@JimboBricks]

I want my MTV

[@JimboBricks]

If the rumors are true. Star Trek is coming to Lego. Enterprise D with a crew full of minifigs

[@Josh_Greathouse]

If it wasn't a modular... why did Alex sell it for so much?

[@DelsynsBrickBuilds]

The Sprite Soaked gummy bears: interesting idea, but probably not for me.

[@Mardigrasman23]

Coy and Vance replaced Bo And Luke. Talk about a disaster

[@hohmannclan]

I have some Star Wars sets but I’m ready to see something else. I know, not a popular opinion.

[@MrWickedpaul]

You should say “here’s a word from our unofficial sponsor” then insert ads

[@Mardigrasman23]

Idk this is your house

[@onecleverpig]

😂😂😂

[@judy3973]

I pay for KZbin Premium, so I don’t get commercials when I have logged into YT. 😊

[@johnvocatura]

If you say Lego Lama three times very fast, things may happen.

[@chriscummings4206]

I already miss the shirt guy....was his show not renewed? Now I'm left watching TNG repeats.

[@JimboBricks]

Star Wars and value do not compute Alex

[@BricksOnAnIsland]

I don't like Market Street. I'd prefer any other modular over this one. So I don't care wether it is the first modular or not.

[@JimboBricks]

Penn State win, ball drop and midnight Lego release , then off to bed.

[@chefeddie6164]

17 minutes before you got to Lego talk. Great job, go for the record! No one wants to hear about Lego all the time. Please make a segment about Earl now, is he real? Is he AI, who knows? Maybe he eats gummy bears soaked in 7-up? The world needs to know. It's kind of like Unsolved Mysteries. Stay Oswaldified!
