Is this worth $550? | LEGO Colosseum Review

[@GregorBarclay]

"Too repetitive," "too tan" - you guys know this is based on AN ACTUAL BUILDING, right? You can't just make some of it hot pink, and add a bunch of wheels and glass windows.

Loved Lego as a child and now as a 30 year old adult I recently bought a small set and I noticed one important thing is that it really takes you out of our digital lives and zones you out to just use your mind to do problem solving skills and also the enjoyment/accomplishment of building something. Love it haha

[@keraunospir8092]

I love still being a kid and getting excited when I get a new lego set, it makes me truly sad to think that one day I may not have any of these sets anymore, but I’m happy to have em

Building a new lego set always reset my maturity. as soon i open a new set, i squeal like a kid again.

Ryan is an immature child who never grew up. He has never had to earn or work for all the things he has, so the concept of throwing a set many people could only dream of having off a roof just says it all. He will grow up one day, perhaps. But I’m not confident. Solid Brix and Jang are far more mature and interesting content producers.

I am building this now. I very much enjoy the quiet solitude of the build. I only do 3-4 bags at a time, then take a break. So it takes me a week to build the whole thing. Which is fine, I’m in no rush. In fact, I get depressed when finished, because I have nothing left to build.

The use of negative space in this lego set is absolutely brilliant. That's all i have to say. I cant afford it and i probably wouldn't buy it if i did, but MAN is that a well designed set.

[@bunsenn5064]

This and the Titanic set are the ultimate Lego flex. If you have one of these, perfectly assembled, sitting on a dedicated pedestal table in your living room or office, you’re officially an intellectual.

Having visited the real one , it's quite incredible how accurate this model is !

[@jay692]

Price to piece ratio is far better than any other big set... so I have to admit this is a good price. And it looks amazing. My only complaint is that they had a golden opportunity to use mini figs for the statues in some of the remaining windows.

[@GOOFYLEGOMAN]

Thats a great idea! But the reason lego didnt do that is because this lego set isnt minifig scale, if it was it would be gigantic

I am building it right now. One sitting? Yikes, no way. It is repetitive BUT anything worthwhile is. I have noticed that any big structure is going to be repetitive. Most of my skyscraper mocs are. Totally loving the set. Looks amazing even though I am not done with it.

[@ElliottProductions]

Nice to see someone actually take pride, care and joy of this set. Main reason I'm always enjoying your content, you are mature and act like an adult who generally enjoys building.

[@Tj_Hay]

I think this set is phenomenal. I actually completed this set at 12 years old, this was a very challenging set for me but the end result is fantastic. This is one of my most favorite sets because of the details and the size of it.

[@wizardbuilds207]

Glad I could be able to be a part of this milestone. Thanks for the great content! =)

[@henrysmith7258]

I think the big difference between this and the millennium falcon is the love and passion put into the build. Everyone is obsessed with this because it’s big, while the Star Wars build is about detail and love for the movies

[@DogsandPennies]

For the lego fans sure. But the architectural and classical civilisation fans love this for the detail and their love for the original structure. (it's just about what stuff you're interested in)

[@BestNameCouldThinkOf]

When I built it I have to say I DIDN'T find it repetitive at all! It was just fun and absorbing

[@vulture117]

It'd be cool if it included a Maximus minifigure. Also is it minifigure scale because I'm thinking of getting it and restoring it for a gladiator moc if it is. I hope lego do more stuff like this because a set of the sphinx and pyramids of Giza would be awesome

[@11cfschroeder]

Thanks David - I was on the fence about getting it. Probably will now.

[@LZ_Arms_airsoft]

This is awesome but I hope the next ucs set is minifig scale like the mos eisley cantina which is one of the coolest sets ever

Great video, but one thing that I cannot comment on is the fact that you have the CW black series Ashoka Tano and the Death Watch Mandalorian and one other figure (hard to figure out who it is with the emporers shuttle in the way 😂). That is so cool, as a Black Series collector, I have been searching for those figures and I haven't found them yet because the distribution of them is so awful and uneven and the scalpers are selling them for so much (4x the price in some cases 😥). I just wanted to point that out, because that's all I was watching the whole video, great video David I remember when you were Legoboy123456789 back in the day 😂 Damn, anyway, have a wonderful day
