[@judy3973]

Good commercials! Very creative and fun! Fiverton Gal, good firehouse companion to watch the movie together!

[@soniaholcombe7002]

Great episode as always. My favorite thing about Tuesdays. Well, maybe second to taco Tuesday. 😂👍🏻🌮🌮🌮

[@duplotraci]

This community is amazing. Loved all the firehouse content, especially FivertonGals.

[@Mardigrasman23]

Awesome commercial. Both if them

[@JimboBricks]

Looking forward to seeing the Endurance built and reviewed. Very cool

[@BrickTrains]

You guys should be honored you are the only commercial to air during the podcast. 🎉

[@bricks_in_space]

Love the micro-build GB HQ nicely done. Absolutely love today's sponsor. I should have added mine to the commentary. Maybe i'll remember next time.

[@danielh8107]

That afool segment you made was hilarious. I was amazed you were able to come up with all of those. I thought the timing joey brought it up in the video was perfect.

[@Mardigrasman23]

Great flex guys. Glad to see Tonya using the coach for display. Eventually that coach will be gone. And Et Tu Joey.

[@TheOtherGuys2]

Today while watching Bricking News, I've finally finished rebuilding my old UCS Tantive IV, inspired by seeing one behind you guys all (half) the time. For a 23 year old set, the stickers are in surprisingly good shape. Now where to put it.... If only I had a good location. I might be able to make room on the shelf, next to the ~~ Shuttle. :D

[@BatteryPoweredBricks]

I'll never forget burning my finger on a cigarette lighter in the back of our old GMC van as a kid. We just happened to be on our way to some historical reenactment place without running water. Only had to learn that lesson once

[@BrickTsar]

Brick jams also has a really nice Tyco us-1 collection

[@tynovel]

I wonder how cold Alex keeps his Lego room. Jason has to wear a thick hoodie it seems lol

[@SHYTIMEismyTIME]

All I want is that modular!!!! Either way... get it or not.. I will be buying Jan 1st! I think they did the Rocket for Pharrell since he probably requested it, since his son's name is Rocket.

[@MimiDonDoLEGO]

I only burnt my finger once on the cigarette lighter. Lesson learned. As far as the botanical gardens, I agree with the price and amount of “space” it will take up. I found the Friends Botanical garden on sale for 20% off at my local Walmart so bought 2 and will check out/build Kim’s rebrickable version.

[@TheOtherGuys2]

55:00 looking at the first Ghostbusters Firehouse submission, the big structure Alex asked about behind it is. It's a modification of set 4207 City Garage. I have one in my city too, but his appears to be at least two of them stacked. Pretty fun set. Side note, Mini GB Firehouse was totally my idea for a submission, but I forgot to do it and also Jason's was better than I'd have done.

[@sg-brick]

To clarify: my "firehouse" entry was made 100% out of duplo. Those windows are rampart/battlement (51698) from a duplo castle set. I was alive in 91 and did burn my finger once a bit on the lighter. Grtz, SG from Belgium 🇧🇪

[@DazmaniaUK]

Another great episode 👍 A really good micro build of the Ghostbusters Firehouse. Unfortunately mine is still boxed, even after I ended up buying it because of Jason 🙄 I even have a Space! for it ready in my city.

[@illuzion30]

If you're ever in a tux or maybe dressed up in some hoity-toity place, would love for you to take some photos that satirize Lego marketing pics. Could offer a break from making an outro video some week. Great firehouse micro-build 😊 Also SOMO = Satisfaction of Missing Out 😉

[@cirquestar6618]

Halloween is originally an Irish tradition, you're welcome :P

[@tynovel]

Next year you guys should do a collab with Joey to do an Old Guy, Old Train segment!

[@DJ-ih8tzslegostickers]

So fresh prince is now nostalgic? Feeling awfully old over here that I can still recite the theme songs from Brady bunch, Gilligan's island, Adam's family, scooby doo, and many others. 😂

[@JimboBricks]

As I’m at the early stages of my city, I think it would be really cool to add the botanical garden to my city. I was planning to do only one table but mods like this may make me go to two tables. But the price is a bit high

[@johnpowell2431]

I miss the cigarette lighter in the car and the ashtray. Made smoking while driving so much easier.❤

[@InaGalaxyFarFarAway]

Well, I haven’t watched the video yet because I’m too busy enjoying Billund and buying way too many Lego bricks and sets to fit in my luggage for the trip back home! 😄

[@onecleverpig]

I remember my mom left me in her 1991 Ford Escort when I was a wee lad (thanks mom). She didn't smoke, but kept her car factory fresh, so I saw that thing, plunged it in and then it popped back out. I thought "this thing looks just like my fingerprint!" And proceeded to burn my thumb 😂 I also just turned 30 this year which in my mind isn't THAT old

[@tynovel]

I agree that 2 baseplates for the botanical gardens is a bit too much, and the price is on the high side as well. Jason, what will you do with your friends botanical garden if you get the new botanical garden set?

[@KrisBrixx]

I think Earl needs a "No-Buy 2025" and just put the savings towards the Ghostbuster's Firehouse!

[@justcoll3ct]

Lego knows they will sell modulars, and have since started giving us at least 2-4 a year, just under different themes. If someone isnt buying the bugle, sanctum etc because its not the 1 a year modular line, they are greatly missing out.

[@joe-bowling]

I wanted a botanical garden and the new Ideas set looks great, but Tiago's video made up my mind to get a second Friends Botanical Garden set and I'm going to make Brick Artisan's Rebrickable MOC with just a few color changes.

[@JimboBricks]

If the ladies change their minds, I have all the shops GWPs still in box

[@tynovel]

@bricktrains Joey is that monorail on top of the firehouse sealed?

[@MayoHosko]

i prefer the modular come out in January

[@levelup_rob]

Can i try to make I make a commercial for at the end of Bricking News?

[@alexnunes]

Yes!

[@tynovel]

Well these days we have USB ports in our cars instead of cigarette lighters

[@BrickTrains]

It's funny we give out thousands of pieces of candy each year. And we only give out one piece per person. Alot of that is the cheap stuff, like small dumdum and single midget tootsie rolls. We actually ordered 40lbs of candy this year vs by the piece. I would hate to think about buying that much candy in full size bars by the piece 😮😮😮 it's. NOt that we live in a real rich neighborhood very middle class, but parents can drop off in the area and it is closed off to high traffic areas.

[@tynovel]

I don't think Alex is shadow banned. Maybe he forgot to sign up for something. I hope he has at least signed up for the end of year gift. Also, Jason, are you joining ULUG's lugbulk next year? Sign-ups are ending soon it seems.

[@chefeddie6164]

Agree or Disagree: Is Lego in danger of reaching market saturation? Due to the lack of SPACE! most people have, it seems that most families are reaching the point where they can't continue to buy more and more product. Due to the collectability and quality of Lego, people hang onto it and a saturation point could be more dangerous to Lego's continued economic bubble then cost. As always, Stay Oswald-ified!

[@BricksOnAnIsland]

Concerning the zwo Botanical Garden sets I disagree (in parts at least). In Germany online prices are not going down for the friends set: in contrary, prices went up as soon as the friends-set was sold on on the Lego website. It looks like all the cheap online shops sold their sets already. So the friends set is 87 Euros or more on the internet and the new Ideas Botanical Garden Set has 3700 pieces, so it is partwise more than three times the size of the friends set (1072 pieces). Okay, it is more than three times the price. So I'd say it depends how much space you have!!! (And if you want to pay more than 300 Euros for a Botanical Garden. Still, I am with Alex: There are other and cheaper Sets that are more interesting than the Botanical Garden. Stil, for 60 Euros each I would preferee two friends sets over the ideas set, like Tiago.

[@Brickavity]

The lego community likes calling everything a modular building. we should start referring to sets as city compatible. Many sets look good in a layout that are not able to be technic pined together. Really as city builders we are asking lego for more buildings.

[@edgarmorales9110]

Minifigs never inside the buildings. Display on side walks a verybusy city sidewwlk lol, balconies if any. Roof when the set has a scene as in a garden or tables. And all cars occupied

[@roblyons8360]

Boo hoo Alex it's been only 10 years for the Giants I'm a blue jays and expos fan, 1993 for the jays and never for my expos
