Designing a LEGO POLAROID Camera | Tubeside ep 2 : Polaroid OneStep SX-70 Camera 21345

[@commander-fox-q7573]

Love the details on this set. But the mechanism is so cool it steals the show. Seeing how seemingly complex mechanisms such as these are made is probably my favourite part of Lego Also thought the just2good frame as you said ‘too good’ was hilarious lol I had to repeat that section a bunch.

[@frontguide14]

That gear mechanism was insane! I’ve never been so nervous while finishing the model, wondering if I did it right because there was no way of knowing until then end… and the parts moved so subtly when activated… super impressed with the end result. My son went around for hours afterwards, taking pictures of unknowing family members and friends (who believed the camera was real from the functionaity of the design) making up stories of why their picture was changed into the “girl on vacation” or the Edwin Land shot. Bravo on function and playability!!

Brick building the stripe was such a great call 👏🏻

[@justsomefox8910]

Omg this is a set that I own! And thanks for the reminder to take it off my shelf and appreciate it every so often, I absolutely will do that!

[@Tubeside]

This is what amazon echo was made for.

[@joep.k.2953]

I got this set for my birthday since I love Polaroid cameras. I was blown away by how charming you and the team made this set. Thank you!

[@Mr.Pufferfish.]

i like this. seeing the behind the scenes of a lego set is really interesting.

[@edgarlillo6516]

Hey James, will you cover Andrea’s theater school next? It’s one of my favorite Friends models!

[@stevenjon3843]

I second this! Love the channel.

[@hopoffz]

Holy hell the vibes are so good here. I’m 10 seconds into the video I can’t believe how few views this has!!!!

[@Tubeside]

Share it with your AFOL friends to get the views up plzz

[@OliverCGoetz]

Haha. While watching the video I took off the side panel of my set and now I need the instructions again to see where this wedge plate belongs that came off along with it! 🤣 I love your videos and I think yours is the first channel where I not only subscribed, but also hit the notification bell!

[@MamasBricks]

Interesting videos! I would love for you to do Friends Andrea's Theatre school!!! And how interesting that you designed the foilpacks for magazines! Love to see someone day how that works!

[@Tubeside]

Wow first request for the magazine models! I was going to skip them but I'll do a wee video on them at some point 😁

[@farlight]

Any chance you will cover the Typewriter, particularly how the working typing mechanism came to be

[@ailurophelia]

This is incredible to see the process that goes on to make these models! Thank you so much for sharing. And you were the designer for the Sanderson Sister's Cottage?! PLEASE share with us what went on behind the scenes building that!

[@soer7022]

Super awesome videos! As a LEGO employee it’s awesome to hear the stories from both sides!

[@sampower1735]

Loved the typewriter set. Just a few questions you may be able to answer. Who sits on board when reviewing ideas sets and how long does it take. Is the review virtual or in person? Are there permanently ideas employees? Do sets get approved in private and revealed to press before the public know and thus they start development. Heard lego works in advance

[@Tubeside]

I'll put these in the next q&a :)

[@gonkbricks1453]

Love the insight😎

[@COCONABEOFFICIAL]

I'd love to learn more about 60395 Combo Race Pack. It's an underrated gem imo and reminds me a lot of LEGO Racers

[@Tubeside]

Yeah I poured a lot of my childhood nostalgia into that one, glad you appreciate it!!

[@NickBrick]

I’m still debating on whether to do a video comparing your set to my Sears special replica (mostly due to time it would take to edit 😅) but, spoiler alert, I like your set a lot more. Something about it just feels right despite having to go with an even number of modules in width. Thanks for making a 5x5 cylinder in black btw 😎🤙

[@MinibrickProductions]

Please do! I’ve been waiting for that video!

[@ABrickDreamer]

Very interesting video once again 👏🏼

[@Tubeside]

Thank you!!

[@HFX_BRX]

Great video! Well produced and very informative. (That sounds like a lame comment, and maybe it is, but it is honest!)

[@Tubeside]

Thank you! For a channel just starting out comments like this are valuable for feedback and motivation, so not lame at all 😁

[@zane2302]

Hi James, I'm loving your videos. Thanks for putting these together. I have a question that I'm not sure if you can answer, but I'll ask anyway. What is the price difference between printing on a part vs. having the user add a sticker? Is it a significant cost savings?

[@Tubeside]

Im working on a brickset article on this :)

[@zane2302]

I'll watch for it. Thanks! @@Tubeside

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

Random thoughts: epic, ooh the mechanism used the space in that technique element awesome, epic Just2good mention, funny, wow unikitty chin you say

[@Tubeside]

😂😂

[@purplecarrotstirfry]

so do you have engineering background? this process seems so physics intensive!

[@purplecarrotstirfry]

ps, love the suggestion to actually play with our sets more often! it's so true. they can start to lose their true magic if they gather dust on the shelf

[@Tubeside]

Yup I have a degree in Mechanical engineering and one in Product Design. 🧑‍🎓🧑‍🎓

[@GothicKittyMadness]

James? more like Jane! lmao

[@Tubeside]

Gottem

[@BrickHQ]

Awesome BTS stuff The polaroid set is awesome, but overpriced. Do you know why it was so expensive? 4:05 what do the tooling engineers do? 5:30 interesting, I didn't notice that

[@lord_scrubington]

OMG James May is making another show about LEGO??? No Way!

[@Arachnid-Man]

Hey James, My name is Allard, a game technologies student from the Netherlands with a passion for the world of creativity. I am reaching out to you to request an interview regarding your experience as a Lego Product Designer. (I had already done this on Twitter.) I recently had contact by email with Tiago Catarino, another respected ex-Lego designer. Although Mr. Catarino said he was not available for an interview, he suggested that you could perhaps provide insight into the world of Lego Product Design. As part of a school assignment, I am exploring my future aspirations within the creative industry. And what would be a better way to do this than to talk to someone who has already achieved what I hope to do after graduation? I hope that your personal experience and perspective would enhance my understanding and guide me in planning my career after graduation. Would you be available for a short video call? I would be happy to send you a list of interview questions in advance. So that you would know what I would like to ask you. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Allard

[@Tubeside]

I'll reply on twitter :)

[@BigDizzad]

I've never mined anything but I feel like I've struck gold with your channel. Great channel name as well. Best of luck but I feel like you don't need it.

[@Tubeside]

Thank you prospector

[@RegenTonnenEnte]

Well he certainly has the teeth of James May!

I heard it was a letdown
