I love that you have all the old set boxes so well preserved. It brings me unlimited joy to see someone so passionate and loving about this hobby. Thank you for preserving these gorgeous pieces of Lego History

Thanks for kind comment! I’m trying to keep them out of the light as these boxes fade in color…. I’m hunting for a few more Like the Wolfpack 6075 box but not many for sale… at a fair price 🙂

@@vintagebricksFYI i’m pretty sure there are UV blocking transparent shields or glass you can get to put on display cases, a lot of museums use them. It’s not cheap, but it’s worth it if you are already going to do a large glass cabinet. I’m younger but I don’t think the UV blocking tech was around when I was a kid either.

Hope to get this set soon. It was fun to see all the Easter eggs you pointed out to past sets. I hope Lego makes a new joust set soon.

You’ll love it… The build took me two weeks to build … in spare time and actually got more interesting in the second Inn and Tower building

I disconnected everything and made 5 buildings, then I placed them around the bf castle 31120, nice set, constructively exciting.

Great idea! Exactly the flexibility this set gives a castle diorama. I need to spend so time working on diorama ideas

Excellent video again James! Love all the work you put into this video. So cool to actually also see the sets build up together. A lot of history there. I be honoust, i am jealous on you with those old boxes! Beauties haha! Just kidding. Excellent boxes. Love them. The set is fantastic. Price wise you have to wait the right time with gwp to feel better when spending money It was the 8th yesterday. You managed to get the forrest castle from bdp?

Thanks… yes so excited to get the Forest Castle… I’m thinking of dioramas I can do with this set… glad it included a tribe of forestmen! Where you able to. Pick one up… it sold out pretty fast.

@@vintagebricks yes i did. Had some stress with the website being slow, but persistence payed off! Now waiting for the Pirate omninous island set to be shipped lol.

Oh When I ordered set I had my adult son also try ( another state) since I know the servers can’t handle the volume of queries for this type of event. Final outcome he order 1 and so did I… so will have an extra for some alternate builds… and extra minifigs of course…. Glad you got through

What is that train behind you near the windmill? I am pretty sure I used to have that set. Wanted to see this set as I am buying one tomorrow as its 25% off which is a bit rare...now it looks so good I am thinking of getting two. Great vid, the sets you have and the boxes from 45 years ago, I used to rip them open and in the bin they went...what was I thinking?

I think you seeing the top train which is the #171, a push train from 1972 I think. Truely a vintage set! If you can get 2 at a great price "Do it". Storing boxes is a problem as they take up a bunch of space and colors fad near light.... My biggest growing up regreat was my Dad giving away my stamp collection when I was in College

About the letter from the Black Falcon and the guard, I wonder why LEGO put those big mustaches on the guard... and I imagine the guard may be a Black Falcon agent in disguise... For the tax collector, he might black mail the black knight somehow... Or to be blackmailed by the black knight which would explain why he has to "borrow" some coins... Maybe one of his relative is held prisoner...
@vintagebricks3 ай бұрын
OH... love your thinking .... lol about the mustasch! And for sure the tax collector is up to no good with the Black Knights!

Its way too expensive (as lego usually is) and the Stickers are once again a disgrace. Especially for the price.
@vintagebricks3 ай бұрын
Ya those stickers would have been great printed pieces… no idea how Lego decides these things… this set is not a limited production set
@neilrusling-je6zo3 ай бұрын
Lego has never been cheap, but having stickers in what is supposed to be a "premium product" when there are sets made by Pantasy for half the price and with everything printed is certainly a disgrace. Lego needs to realise the competition has improved a lot, the 221b Baker Street modular by Pantasy is fantastic value. The stickers have to go.
