I Resurrected LEGO Sets From "The BIN"

[@OptimisticBricks]

Should I remake the drop ship in a future video? If so what changes/improvements would you add to it?

[@BricktasticIdeas]

@@OptimisticBricks Could you possibly do a video where you go to the LEGO store and experiment with pieces from the pick a brick wall?

I seriously regret taking apart all my modular buildings, winter village sets and creator 3 in 1 sets I received in my first few years I got into LEGO. I destroyed all those sets/have a bin now to learn and practice building MOC’s, but after watching this video, I’m totally motivated to rebuild them and stay optimistic at the same time! (You seriously did inspire me)

[@julianhibbert8291]

I found you again and I break my lego because I need to build a moc but I only do that if the lego sets are old

Rebuilding old sets from a giant bin is such a vibe. Doing that in 2020 got me back into LEGO.

[@OptimisticBricks]

It's very satisfying when all said and done. What sets did you wind up rebuilding?

[@MKMBrick]

@@OptimisticBricks I built all my old childhood Star Wars sets. 2007 MTT, 2005 Duel on Mustafar, Clone Wars Gunship, etc. Brought back so much nostalgia.

[@OptimisticBricks]

Okay yeah those are some bangers. I love to see it

[@Jachlorine]

THE DROP SHIP IS WAYY BETTER THAN THE ENDOR SET😭😭😭

[@ArcaneBricks]

I know, that dropship looked sick 😭 😭

[@crimsong8068]

I did this exact thing during lockdown, resurrecting around 45 sets over a two year period. Including Power Miners, Space Police, Star Wars and more. My proudest one was the 2008 Death Star, which was a dusty husk tucked away on my shelf. I took it apart, cleaned the parts, found what was missing (around 700 pieces) and put it back together. I have to say, I love my Lego shelf far more now that it encompasses my entire journey. (Though I did have to later part down some models for spacing reasons). It's totally worth the effort.

[@theplopyt]

Call him optimistic chef because he COOKED in this video. Seeing all these sets were soo nostalgic 😩

When I was little kid, I used The Bin as the punishment to my lego figures. Villans was transported in special dropship type thing, with a trapdoor, and when it would open... There was no hope for them.

[@Vega_Fei]

I understand the annoyance and enjoyment of this, during Lockdown, me and my family did this for all 97 of my sets, all were broken and in 2 huge bins and 2 smaller ones. All of them now have a place on the shelves in my bedroom, it’s always fun to see people’s reactions to the Lego draping my room. It was a great family building task and ended being my favourite memory of Lockdown, love seeing others doing this as well. Thank you so much for reminding me of that time of light in such a dark time.

[@OptimisticBricks]

That's honestly a super cool family project. And 97 sets?! That sounds deserving of a spot in the Guinness book of world records

[@Vega_Fei]

Yeah, it was great fun, took us 4 months in total because we had to order some new parts that had unfortunately been lost to the vacuum cleaner. Not sure 97 is record worthy, but it was a lot to do, especially some of the huge sets we had to build.

[@SebastianTheScrunklyFish]

I actually love this video, 5 hour version when?

[@Luksutin64]

I might as well check my bins to see what i can find

[@LodanSD]

From my experience, a Rubbermaid Roughneck 10-gallon bin filled halfway is the best for Lego Storage, so the weight of the pieces don't damage the other pieces as much as if you use a bigger bin. And I have 3 bins dating back to the 80s (though it was 9.5-gallon Keepers from Rubbermaid, but still roughly the same size and shape as the roughnecks), and got 3 more recently. However, I will say, if you enjoy MOC Building, then having a few bins is a good idea!

[@JurassicKing]

Oh god the PTSD. I once had to sort through 2 massive bins or miscellaneous bricks to rebuild the Jurassic World sets from 2018. All of them -.-

I've been building legos in the bin for so long it takes me hours but I'm not stress at all because I can build any thing the technique in building in the bin is start with the frame then find the parts you need to fast when finding to reduce the minute you waste

This is so relatable to me as I have a lot of sets that are so broken

Theres nothing better than finally rebuilding an old lego set from the bin wich took 10 years to find the pieces of😅.

I only buy sets to build them and destroy them, i add them to a massive box which is roughly the size of a bathtub and its 3 quarters full, i sit there for hours going through the whole thing to build creations of my own because when i am finished it feels more rewarding
