Here's Why I Stopped Collecting LEGO Sets.

Coruscant finale: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKOvZWWwpc5qf9U

[@Mmddjfasj]

flash finale if you translate

[@bricksnframes7067]

One thing’s for sure. You won’t need to buy that many Coruscant Guard Gunships as you’ve already got a bunch of decaled Shock Troopers.

[@bricksnframes7067]

@thomasgill1015 Indeed!

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Oh ya I have all I will ever need.

[@MaxBricksYT]

I think it’s great that your displaying your MOCS, also not buying LEGO sets will help you save money that can go towards your own creations! Nice video Coconut

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Much appreciated man.

[@66BricksYt]

I think displaying more Mocs vs sets is a great idea! Especially since you have started to use more custom vehicles which makes Legos models obsolete. Keep up the great work!

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Now I just need a bigger display space haha.

[@NicktheBrickLord]

I love this and recently I started doing this myself! I buy the sets for the figs and I build them to learn new techniques, but then I almost immediately take them apart for the pieces. I also understand the draw of collecting sets, but I think it's a bit cooler to be able to display your own builds

[@coconutbricksstudios]

The figs are my main attraction to sets as well but I have started buying them from bricklink.

[@NicktheBrickLord]

@@coconutbricksstudios Ah yes! I did that with the Justifier. Though I usually wait to see if I can get the set on sale. I almost never buy sets full price :P

[@dubbzibricks]

This video was so cool. It is so nice having a tour of your previous projects! Brilliant. Looking forward to seeing the collection grow over the coming years

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Thanks, it was the perfect kind of interim content while I get things ready for the next big moc.

[@danielmon2872]

You are the reason I looked over my Lego room and realized half the sets I have bought are just impulse buys and I can now sell them to buy what I need of bricklink for my mocks. Thanks. Your vids are awesome

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Awesome! Moc building is such a blast.

[@kidcollectable4043]

Displaying your own Mocs is such a great idea! I hope one day I can as well!

[@coconutbricksstudios]

It's very rewarding.

[@ShuvzPoker]

Only been subbed for a few weeks. This is now my no.1 Spot to visit for all my Moc needs and info. Great Channel. Great Videos. We appreciate your hard work dude!

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Love to hear it, glad you have been enjoying my channel!

[@jabba_the_brick4430]

Great stuff - really have been enjoying your videos for the last year, keep 'em coming!

[@aggronn]

love that you keep the mocs, you have an epic collection/display pieces. I like it way more then the lego sets

[@vacuum_cleaner2881]

is there a video showcasing the jungles of naboo moc?

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Yes it's in the moc showcase playlist I believe.

[@TheKingSargon]

Looks better now , very nice Mocs do you have .

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Thanks I am much happier with the display space now.

[@ronaldvandaele3297]

If I was as talented as you I would only display my stuff as well. Great Job!!!!

[@coconutbricksstudios]

All it takes are practice and ideas.

[@kidcollectable4043]

Also awesome custom Sherman! Can you tell me who designed it? Thank you.

[@beuny426]

Cool video i Hope One Day you make a Geonosis Catacombs MOC

[@coconutbricksstudios]

That would be cool.

[@grindingbricks]

I think that we have a similar philosophy for when it comes to what we display, out of all the builds i have on display, 5 of them are official sets, everything else is either custom sets or the few MOCs i've built to date. Main reason being that Lego official sets don't really capture what i want for my collection, accuracy and complexity are my main focus. I still buy a lot of official set but mostly for the minifigs and to be up to date with the new parts that Lego offers as it's a great development tool/asset for the custom sets i create or collaborate with other designers.

[@coconutbricksstudios]

I have a couple ucs sets I would like to display but I want to start displaying more custom vehicles. When I eventually get a larger permanent display setup I want to invest more in those types of builds.

[@BrickHive]

Fantastic idea, brother! 🙂👍👍

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Appreciate it hive! Are you keeping your Vader's castle moc as a display piece?

[@BrickHive]

@@coconutbricksstudios No, I'll be reusing the pieces.

[@yolo_xenophone]

Aye!! lovin the showcase!! 🤩

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Appreciate it.

[@darthbrickbuilder1125]

Looks really good, would do this too but only have enough brick for like 2 small Mocs at a time

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Understandable.

[@Hyper_1989]

I'd love to see you try to revisit one of those old tanks!

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Haha they are in pretty rough shape.

[@bdonaghu]

I also do not collect and display many sets. I only have a few sets still built (Rivendell, Lion Knights Castle, and the new Galaxy Explorer). Any other set I've recently bought and built has since been parted out and sorted for MOC building.

[@coconutbricksstudios]

I do think Legos bigger sets like the ucs style stuff make for great display pieces! I have the ucs imperial shuttle and sandcrawler and wish I could display them.

[@V8AirsoftandGame]

His bear face through me off for a sec 😂

[@coconutbricksstudios]

😅

[@notworthyy]

I would definitely be buying old sets that I wanted still. But mocs are cool and yes it also allows for bigger and better mocs

[@coconutbricksstudios]

After buying most of the old sets I wanted for nostalgia I realized there just wasn't much of an appeal in the newer sets.

[@notworthyy]

@@coconutbricksstudios fair

[@brennanwhite8263]

You should split a base plate into 4 even squares and do you 4 favourite Star Wars battles or anything else you want to do.

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Maybe I will.

[@acimagination7982]

ya those new Jurassic park sets are neat. but anyways ya that is a neat idea. showcasing your custom lego mocs.

[@TailcoatGames]

How is your box wall stuck to the wall? Is it just careful stacking or are they secured in some way

[@coconutbricksstudios]

They are just carefully stacked on top of one another.

[@lewwho1647]

Ngl that rhino at te is so good makes me want to mod mine

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Dew it.

[@VylinJanKranBlanMichal]

you're such a chad bro

[@Dat_Ruski]

The "Chinese" themed polybag was from the free 'Chinese New Year' parts polybag when you ordered online!

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Thanks.

[@Dat_Ruski]

@@coconutbricksstudios of course!

[@Clonebobbehindthescenes]

Great video coconut

[@dabbi827]

You haven't even watched it

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Thanks.

[@davidboyd4026]

Great video 😊

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Thanks man!

[@Chubajascience]

what will be the next moc

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Stay tuned.

[@johnmurphy2189]

I do the exact same thing! Would rather spend my $$ on parts for a MOC/MOD then on a LEGO set these days.

[@coconutbricksstudios]

For sure, especially because actual Lego bricks are pretty cheap.

[@OpticBlast-yk5hf]

I think your AT-TEs would be considered mods/ modded sets.

[@jbawesome5640]

I agree

[@coconutbricksstudios]

That's a good way to put it.

[@kylelegasbuildlego5221]

Hi and good video I am building a big moc.

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Love to hear it.

[@legobilder232]

I world love to See more ww2 mocs

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Got more coming later this week.

[@legobilder232]

Maybe you can build a hürtgenforest moc with your sherman fou Would be able to User your darktsn collection

[@reverselogic2121]

I dont often do MOCs, but I have recently rebuilt old lego sets from pieces in my lego bins so I don't have to pay money for new sets

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Awesome what sets?

[@reverselogic2121]

@@coconutbricksstudios the 2008 homing spider droid, 2008 hailfire droid, 2009 clone wars Y-wing, 2010 arc-170 and swamp speeder, all my bionicle sets, space police 3 and power miners too. Saving me tons!

[@HailedSpider]

Clone army update when?

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Probably in a couple of weeks.

[@DBswag_]

For me buying Lego sets is very much a finite thing. It's not that I don't want to keep collecting, it's just I don't have nearly enough space or money for that matter. With Lego becoming more & more expensive, I rarely buy a set straight away as most are just vastly overpriced imo but that's just the way things go I guess.

[@MCLegoSam09]

Not done with the video yet but I honestly would do the same with my MOCs

[@coconutbricksstudios]

It's the way to go.

[@kubson_bubson4059]

aclamator only big vechicle also he like 5 min before: separatist controle ship

[@mack-gn9pi]

I don’t know for that you should be like the bottle of wine lol as your next mark

[@skinnyj123]

I only buy mocs too now and mostly custom figures just because i don't want to support lego's current cheaping out attitude when it comes to sets

[@gregorytaylor4903]

I agree with your comment and it's a shame they are price gauging us

[@coconutbricksstudios]

You can often get much better looking models for much cheaper.

[@KosherPorky]

Displaying sets is 100% not as gratifying as showcasing your own designs

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Agreed, with the exception of a few dope Lego sets.

[@Scary_stalker-w9k]

wheres your beard?

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Shaved.

[@Splash42Bros]

Pieces for mocs > sets

[@coconutbricksstudios]

Agreed.
