LEGO Indiana Jones Temple of the Golden Idol Review (77015 | 2023)

[@Vincentzw]

I still can't believe this theme is coming back, it's a dream come true! Most excited for this set now. I'm quite surprised that for all of it's moving features there's no poison darts or swinging spear booby traps... although that shouldn't be very hard to mod into the set! Great review.

[@accuratebrickinnovations]

I also can't believe it!

[@cliffetters]

The first version of this set (7623 LEGO Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark Temple Escape) DID have the spear trap and blow darts. But it looks like it's going for close to $900 today!

[@gbrow1604]

I'm a huge fan of the boulder feature. It captures the scene well while also being compact enough for the set.

[@CJ-ts1ys]

That Golden build that was a bit mysterious to you is never addressed in the film but can be seen in the background during the scene where Indy sneaks past the pressure dart trap and attempts to steal the golden idol! It’s a great detail from the designers that makes the build that much more accurate to the actual film set 👏👏

[@bluegoose7832]

The next Indiana Jones diorama should be the Grail trials... I think that would be a perfect diorama. Each trial can be represented in the diorama, with the grail room at the end! They could even throw in Henry Jones, Marcus, and Sallah waiting for Indy to return with the holy grail

[@bluegoose7832]

Also potential fun interactions this diorama could have: 1- the axes from the first trial being movable 2- the floor with the letters can fall if you press the wrong ones, though I dont think Lego would allow the name of God to be spelled out, so in the set's case, the correct spelling could be "Lego" or something... 3. The "invisible" bridge could extend to reveal a clear platform with sand printing on it to represent Indy throwing sand on it 4. In the grail room, Donovan (the bad guy) could be placed against a wall, where you turn a wheel and the wall would rotate, revealing a skeleton, representing Donovan's demise... perhaps a bit gruesome, but would be cool imo Granted, this would be a very large diorama, so it's probably unrealistic to expect this much in a single set, but there's so much you can do with that scene

[@elliswrigley4570]

​@@bluegoose7832 Great idea! I would personally love the rope bridge from the Temple of Doom, maybe one that retracts on both sides similar to how Indy cut it?

[@stuffiwanttoshowyou8672]

But his dad was dying :,((they can't put dying dada!! But I love that scene to heck and back Jesus h christ ur a genuis

[@jothis8210]

LEGO Indiana Jones as it should be. This is quite a dream! The stickers are sad but OK enough... Also love the reference to King Kahuka's mask on the wall behind the idol!

[@accuratebrickinnovations]

King Kahuka!!

[@pablofernandez925]

It would be interesting to see a comparison between this set and the 2008 version

[@omgwtflok]

2 actors from Indiana Jones just got Oscars today. Both of them. How fitting

[@williamworrall8065]

Ke Huy Quan, who is the other one?

[@omgwtflok]

@@williamworrall8065 I later found out I was too excited and go full Mandela Effect on myself. Who I was thinking was Brendan Fraser🤣lmao

[@williamworrall8065]

@@omgwtflok oh got it haha. Hey I mean mummy has similar vibes so I don’t blame ya 😂

[@thoso1973]

Well, Harrison got to hold one for a moment before hugging Ke, so.....

[@Hgh38]

Hopefully Short Round comes in a future set

[@JuanHernandez-cy9yw]

Imagine a Jurassic Park Diorama with the T-rex chasing the jeep. It could have Ian's quote Must Go Faster. The jeep could have a function that moves it back and forth.

[@ShadowFrosty101]

omg this theme is coming back i remember getting the last crusade set with the bike i can't wait to get this set

[@n.pags.99]

i am lowkey considering buying this set it is very well done. I never got the 2008 one so it tempts me even more to get it. i haven't fully seen all of the indy movies but plan to watch them all 100% at some point but even if i am not a indiana jones fanatic, i had some of the 2008 sets and the lost ark opening is one of the most iconic openings. it was even recreated in an episode of the simpsons lol

[@devonport1978]

I think I know why the name plate is a sticker and not printed. The way LEGO prints pieces is using tampo printing (pad printing). You can’t do gradient colours with this method like is used in the Raiders text. The transition from red to yellow to white is technically impossible using the pad printing technique. None of the other printed plates have colour gradients so printing is perfect. I’m sure LEGO would have preferred to use printing but that would have either meant hard steps in colours (no gradient transition) or one solid colour. Neither would have worked. They could of course have done the text plate as printed but maybe they decided a sticker next to a print might look silly so they went for two stickers so they matched.

[@rumblehat4357]

Sounds like screen printing. You need a separate screen for every color. Each screen adds to the cost.

[@Yayo_official]

Yea people forget about stuff like that, not mentioning we literally got 12 exclusive printed parts in the set and the golden idol, whose old counterpart is anywhere between 20$ and 50$ on its own, like thats not enough.

[@B4RNZY15]

"There we have the Lego Lord of the Rings: Raiders of the Lost Ark - Temple of the Golden Idol set" lol

[@Tarennys]

I have (technically had, some of the pieces have been deteriorated and broken) the original 2008 version of this. The updates on this set just make it really worth it, even with the stickers

[@BrickHQ]

This diorama looks great, the scenery looks random which is realistic. The functions are amazing, there should be more prints

[@Bricksie]

I made a mistake, the 2x3 tiles and the skulls on the knobs are printed tiles, but there should be more than that!

[@YLS8763]

I like that they’re using more teal pieces. Also the idol room looks fantastic! I love the way they designed it.

[@thisisthisis542]

Man we need a mines of Moria set like this. The front section being the doors collapsing, the middle being the tomb with the cave troll, and the final being the bridge with the balrog

[@hanpolo2727]

It is a shame we don't get Jock and his bi plane but that is the only mild complaint I have the rest of this set is just stunning.

[@Reggaetonaldo]

Love this version of the Lord of the Rings LMAO

[@Bricksie]

🤣

[@funasylumstudio]

It's gorgeous. I kind of wish they just did a new separate Mayan theme regardless

[@saturnboof7590]

I was 5 when the first Indiana Jones sets came out and they were some of the first Lego sets I ever got. Now I’m almost 20 and I’m definitely gonna be buying all three of the new sets

[@slickshewz]

"It's almost like a movie poster"........ It IS the movie poster.

[@tubbsy58]

Very cool set. Captures the opening of raiders in such detail.

[@MomentsOftheMagic]

it reminds me of the indiana jones stunt show at hollywood studios

[@Bricksie]

Yesss! For some reason I referred to it as a ride lol

[@nicholaskarol5045]

@@Bricksie first I love watching your videos but I main thing is I’m coming to the age we’re I need to start saving for a car I really want one but I also love legos and I don’t think I can give legos up do you have and tips or advice to help save some money I will be getting a job in the summer. Keep up the great work your an inspiration

[@TeaGamingPanda]

At the Oscars Harrison and Ke hugged during Best Picture while Spielberg, Williams, and Capshaw looked in awe. All we need was Lucas and be full circle ❤ Cant wait for these sets! My wallet is gonna plunge! However seeing the prices they aren’t as bad as I thought

[@joeymatus]

It is a show at Florida and a ride in California 1:05 around that time

[@Bricksie]

Indeed. I meant the show.

[@joeymatus]

Okay

[@dhartist]

This is soooo cool! I am shocked LEGO hasn't released the official info on this and I am just finding it out through KZbin but HECK I am excited for this and ANY OTHER sets they release for Indy. My all-time fav sets growing up were the Johnny Thunder series and I really hope this inspires LEGO to think about bringing him back in a few years! SO COOL!

[@Cocopuffsdegreat]

Bricksie makes our days

[@cliffetters]

I've got the first version of this (7623 LEGO Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark Temple Escape) and I'm thinking both have their strengths. I like the technics builds used in this one and the golden statue mechanism is WAAAAAAAY better than the first one, but I think I like the longer entrance chamber from the first one as well as the inclusion of Jock and his OB-CPO biplane (along with Jock's pet snake Reggie under Indy's seat) used to escape the Hovitos. As far as minifigs, the new set gets a thumbs up for including a Hovitos warrior with Belloq, but I kinda wish they would have included two of them, but that's a definite improvement over the first set where they kinda counted 3 skeletons as part of the minifig roster. All in all, I'm thinking that this is a set that will be added to my LEGO collection!

[@roblyons8360]

Hey bricksie how about saying US and Canadian prices

[@fuggingone850]

I have the old temple run. I definitely want this one

[@isaac__]

I really love this set the display value is insane as well as it feels like one of those Lego displays you would see at target

[@myreview-aaronfischer]

I am a massive Indiana Jones fan and cannot wait to get a hold of these sets!!!

[@alimonster1982]

I've been holding out for this set and your review has swayed it for me, it's a must have! Can anyone tell me the dimensions of this set as I can't make it out on the box? Fab video as always Bricksie!

[@lotsopain]

I found it on the lego website: 20" length and 9" in height

[@donnalajoie5309]

I agree this is a awesome set. Two actors received Oscars from the Indiana Jones movies on Sunday. Love all three videos of the Indiana sets. Thanks for the review.

[@roythecrazy2790]

[@russellhoyt588]

I agree that the logo and quote tile pieces should be printed. But, aside from that, seems like a great set!

Not a set I was looking to get but all the moving functions are awesome and I like the price more than all the $200+ adult sets!

Las imágenes/stickers de las cabezas son idénticas a las Cabezas Clavas de la Cultura Chavín de Huantar, anterior a los Incas en el Perú. Son de Piedra y originalmente le colocaban piedras preciosas en los ojos para asustar al enemigo por las noches. Excelente set

Yes it can be done fairly easily

"I have to re-watch the movies" - he's never seen them, obviously.

I have to say the movies were brilliant my favorite was the second one. This set is a must buy on day one but sadly I probably won't be able to get one. It's gonna be like the Lego Star wars battle pack.

Thanks Jordan 😊👌 for showing the fecher s in this set. The light I dident know about. Now you showed all this set has I Shaw be getting it ..let's hope K mart will get theas set s in as thay have the best price s to Anny other store I have a mini fig from a city silver bag. From city Lego mag that is like Indiana Jones and a jungle lady one with a lion and lion cub I can add in we all theas sets coming 😊 great vid. Man. Thanks.

[@Skinner1222]

Its already $150, I'm okay with the sticker elements.

[@MrBerserkinTime]

I loved the older set as a kid

[@bluegoose7832]

The lack of printing bugs me a lot... to the point where if there's a way to get a lego piece custom printed for the front of the diorama, I would do it...

[@PenFriends]

I don’t get why people are upset by some stickers…. I mean sure printed pieces are great, but applying a couple of stickers isn’t the end of the earth.

[@Bricksie]

For sure. In this case I just don't understand why the Raiders of the Lost Arch and quote tiles aren't print like all of the other dioramas - it's what gives the sets more value.

[@thevinylcollector3472]

awesome video jordan the set looks epic

[@petesbricks]

Bricksie what do you think about the $150 price? Is it fair for what you get? 🤔

[@Bricksie]

Because of the licensee, I think so. However the lack of printed quote/logo tiles is disturbing - those types of things typically drive up value in big way.

[@vhacker71]

I prefer the Jane Goodall GWP diorama 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@InnocentRain562]

Big fan of this set however, there's no arrow shooter part and the boulder part is very small and packed in....plus no plane :(

[@bonnyb7003]

This would look neat in the amusement park as a staged show.

[@alejaaandritoo1921]

Where did u got this set?

[@josephnalis]

I think the ball rolling mechanism in the back needs to go down a hole and it should be easier to turn. LMK

Still not sold on this lego set, depends on the new movie but not holding my breath

The lack of print tiles is disturbing, LEGO is raising prices and dropping quality.

HOW DID YOU GET THIS SO EARLY!!!! I LITERALLY BEG MOM FOR THE OLD ONES SO MUCH AND THESE HAVE ME TAKEN BACK! Is not fair 😭😣 I was only 1 when the first lego indina jones came out and then I watched the movies and love everyone :,

[@francescoromeo8619]

Seems like a good set to part out

[@hyperspacecase1287]

As this will be my first large scale, reasonably priced set- not having a sticker element for the plaque is a big let down, all of the other themes and sets have that prestigious plaque and to learn that it’s stickers? Pretty lame. Still looks amazing like don’t get me wrong I’m going to enjoy this but dang!

[@tevisfredericks3822]

Man, that looks amazing

[@LEGOGeek382]

Would you guys spend your $100 of VIP points on this or keep waiting for Rivendell?

[@matthewpotter8491]

Fair play Bricksie. I was wondering if you’d call out the stickers on the quote and logo title. A great set no doubt, but these stickers (I can accept the rest) just aren’t acceptable on a set like this which is clearly aimed at adult collectors. They can obviously do it as per the equivalent Star Wars and Jurassic park sets, so this is a massive massive miss for me. Aside from that… very good.

[@brickdivaandjosbuilds8163]

This is a really cool Set !! 👍

[@BlairBoggletrot]

Brilliant set!!!

[@JW-sg7tt]

I like this set, I think it’s cool for a diorama, but it’s one that I personally will probably not buy, simply because it’s expensive and not that appealing to me. I think I’ll probably get some of the more inexpensive Indiana Jones sets, but this one I’m just not in love with. I really just want that golden idol piece.

[@countrabricksbuildcraze8916]

Awesome looking set I Shaw be picking up all the new Indiana Jones s set even tho I don't have any of the old one s note Sean the hole movie not Shaw if thay will fit into my. City. If not I build a Indiana Jones area in my build room hope thay keep making a hole lot of Thea's set s till next year ..

[@darrenrobertson-sr2tb]

@bricksie amazing omg I can't wait, do you think this is ultimately a UCS type of set, the manual reminds me of the layout in our millennium falcon, thoughts?

[@Metalizer]

quotes and all repeatable stickers like the pattern on 8 tiles and 4 skulls on knobs really SHOULD be printed. It's almost like ... imagine the Rivendell floor be stickers .... What a shame in a glorious set.

[@willysmb7514]

I'll probably try and get one at some point :)

[@Yoda2422]

gotta be honest i was thinking about getting the Rivendell Set since im a Fan and the set is awesome but the price just.. i can't, not at the moment and this set is just much more affordable still leaving me with much of my income to spend on other nice things while i would go temporarily broke if i got Rivendell... Just so sad, they really should've made a more affordable lotr set.
