Is It A Crime To Buy Off Brand Lego

[@midsamurai]

I genuinely don't even care about the off brand LEGO ad, i'm just here for that lofty humor and BOY is it on point

Thanks for featuring us man, and talking through the whole “fake LEGO” thing out with everyone. 👍

[@AntaresVII]

This was beautifully made, straight art right down to skipping through your own ad read. I wish I had money to throw at you. Thanks for sharing!

[@CosmicAggressor]

Nice. To be fair at least when I was a kid lego's biggest competiotor was mega block and at least at that point it really did just break apart when you blow on it. Most people seem to have that experience as their base line for off brand legos.

[@ZachTheBrickManiac]

The power of a generic LEGO man and First Order Stromtrooper in a pink skirt is too much for just any jail cell… 💣💥 Great video Loft! 🙌

[@bydiegoandres]

this dude is straight out the lego movie

[@nonstopanimations101]

Dude your stuff is way too interesting and entertaining 😂🍻 I don’t mind the fake LEGO for background stuff, it looks fine and it’s a good option for animators that don’t want to spend $400 for real LEGO modulars just for backgrounds ALSO 5:30 bro just casually animated the cleanest arm crossing ever and thought we wouldn’t notice

[@Dylbricks]

Honestly bro I’m going to have to steal that technique 🤣

[@scramblestopmotion]

off brand lego is great value but off brand minifigures are mostly terrible. they can be good sometimes though

Your videos are some of my favorite on the internet right now! They're just always so engaging and humorous. keep it up!

[@bricktronics]

I don't understand why your channel doesn't have more subscribers with viral viewership. This video is hilarious, and I love your opinion as well. Awesome content!

[@ErikTongStudios]

ii love how you included so many lego animators in the court (including me :)))

[@fafa_faraz]

well, i agree ... someone like me should buy cheap and useful bricks for animating, and your stopmotion itself was a masterpiece!

[@jocoder28366]

The comedy is just as good as the Lego Movie. Keep doing this.

[@JimJamFilmsYT]

BRUH this was so creative😆 and the way of how you compared “fake” lego and on brand lego was written really well. Either way I’m still going to end up with bankruptcy one day cause of this hobby😂

[@BrickStopmotions]

I have some off-brand Lego; not much, but I do try to keep it separate from the real Lego. I have been eyeing off-brand more though, due to licenses Lego doesn't have, such as Star Trek and Stargate, and military stuff. Love the part with your dog!

[@AbsolutelyStudios]

Not really on topic to the video but your facial animations are amazing.

[@BrickBrickProductions]

Lol.😂 Loved the video. I do prefer LEGO but I am looking into buying off brand LEGO, and I even bought a pack of off brand LEGO with animals and they looked really good!✌️

[@BoltIsCool]

Is it really a crime if the stop motion is so fire 🔥

[@Solomon-nz4zp]

6:32, is that rick astley????

[@jajproductionsfruitcakefil8489]

I went through a die-hard LEGO purist phase when I was younger. If the right logo weren't on the stud, then it weren't in my tub. End of. (Except when relatives bought it for me as a present, but I still tried to keep it separate.) LEGO were the poor, poor monopoly company that evil, despicable smaller brands were soullessly stealing from in my small, naïve eyes. But then I started getting into LEGO trains. Train modelling I think is kind of like the gateway drug for shifting allegiances, because its something that LEGO doesn't foster as much as it used to. To get anything done satisfactorily was impossible while maintaining a purist outlook, and before I knew it I was buying custom track pieces, off brand parts and off brand sets (not knockoffs, I hasten to add, but original designs). I'm fully converted now, especially since I'm older and can see how much the price difference matters, so regularly buy parts from Webrick and the like, especially if it's for a model I don't plan on taking apart or if I'm going to modify the parts. Brand loyalty doesn't really benefit the customer in the end, so nobody should be vilified for choosing the more economic solution.

[@Loft_Studios]

Thanks for sharing! And I agree wholeheartedly with your bottom line: Brand loyalty does not benefit the customer. No matter the product, don’t be loyal to any company. There only goal is to take as much money from you as they can.

[@PlasticWars393]

Wow this is the most fiery fire video rn proly

[@g0obr]

when i first started getting legos like last year i only bought lego and hated other off brand legos but now that im trying to do stop motion and dont have enough legos to build decent backgrounds i buy off brand legos and it helped a lot and saved a lot of money

Yeah I didn’t watch the whole video before commenting it so then I changed my comment.

[@Danxiky08]

The truly correct conclusion to this argument you have made here loft, but what you want guys you don’t have to hate a brand unless it’s illegal or straight up rip-off. That said, I’m a loyal Mega fan lol

[@OGMonkeyScout]

Honestly, I'm ok with fake LEGO bricks for stopmotion and only that. However, for building, It just ruins the authenticity of it. Absolutely amazing video as always!😄

[@chrithmuthwolf344]

Ah, the wait was absolutely worth it! 😂👌 See folks, all we needed was our good little minifigure representative to show us how to be open-minded in our usage of similarly styled building bricks. Why, you can just hear the conviction in the crowd! Oh...wait. 🤔 (Thanks for featuring us, Lofty!)

[@RichPufferfish]

Your speech at the end reminded me of Emmet from the Lego Movie. Very well said Loft!

[@brickXperiments]

[@VaderBrickStudios]

This video is so great, very helpful and amazingly animated!

[@CactusCowboyDan]

Your Lego animation is top notch! Very witty and creative. Especially with the practical effects. It almost makes me regret selling most of my Lego after animating it for 10 years. But hey ho.

[@Loft_Studios]

Thanks man! 😄

[@euts2557]

After watching your original video I did some research and constructed the Brick Bank set using WeBrick -- any parts that I couldn't find (roughly 10-15% if I remember correctly) I got from Brick Link. For me to purchase a brand new Brick Bank currently from amazon is over 650 bucks; comparatively, WeBrick cut that down to less than 200. The quality of it was overall good, there were some building techniques that didn't seem to work with the off-brand, most notably the columns that are on the first level. Color quality was slightly off too, but this were for parts at the back of the building. So yes, as someone who wants to build a city-scape for future animations, I will absolutely forgo the Lego print on my bricks if I can save 450 bucks.

[@MEVAS_]

I want to take one of your shorts and make a Lego animation. My question is if you would like to watch it? 😅😮

If you're thinking of getting Dragon Frame but don't want to because of the price, just credit it as a "necessary expense." Great video as always btw!

[@backyardstudiossm283]

Dude has become one of my favorite animators

[@StoofPeer-c5q]

As a lego fan it just feels wrong buying fake lego but after saving a while you do get quality and the best building experience that you can get.

[@christellejean-charlesmwen7120]

Im a lego fan too!, but for me personally I don't really care as long as I can get bricks it's fine by me but I do make sure to separate my real Lego from fake Lego, but that's just me

[@plpa8250]

Finally, I've been saying the same thing about different brand bricks. To be fair to Lego, their IP really appeals to kids, my 7 year old son loves Ninjago, Monkie Kid, and Dreamzzz. But after buying FO and Pantasy sets and then turned on the LED lights for my city, he stopped playing with his Ninjago city and started playing on mine. We got the Newstand and the steampunk car next which he assembled and now, we just order Ninjago and MK minifigs and buy different brands for our buildings.

[@leviorenbuch1880]

I bought an off brand set once, thinking it was actual lego and the quality was horrible. Now I have trust issues with buying from alternative lego brands

That’s very understandable. The biggest problem with offbrand Lego is there is no guarantee of quality.

[@DamianGalewski]

I don't have anything else to say about off brand LEGOs, I mean they do have some good minifigures like the characters from any Anime like Goku and Saber. and to be fair, those minifigures are perfect. I remember buying some Minifigures like the Street Fighters ones and The King of Fighters ones, and those aren't official bricks. problem is, I couldn't find any pieces anywhere. oh, I also forgot that I like how you added the talented animator by the name of Edbound. His animations were astonished with all the effort that has put into them. anyway, great work.

As long as they work the same and can peacefully coexist with one another(like lego won’t fall off of webrick bricks because they’re like 1000th of an inch smaller or something) I can see myself using them as a cheaper alternative if I wanna buy parts for a cool moc I see online
