the bricklink designer program is much closer to what everyone always wanted ideas to be. since the change too much from the original ideas moc i think the bdp is the way to go for lego hobbyist that want to stick to the lego group.

@arghjayem 8 ай бұрын

Very true. But I wish they’d do more than these modular and city style sets. Like mega figure builds. 🤔🤷😂

@idonjohnson6999 8 ай бұрын

But it’s backed by Lego. So not sure this is really sticking it to them. Now Lego has best of both worlds.

@anujmchitale 8 ай бұрын

@@idonjohnson6999As long as this doesn't become exactly or too similar to Ideas, it doesn't matter whether Lego owns it or not. The point was never to stick it to Lego. Rather to get what people wanted out of a MOC-based program.

Besides, it's very unlikely that you will find a BTS or Taylor Swift MOC in this program 😆

@joshslater2426 8 ай бұрын

The bigger thing is that it gives the fans what they want instead of a buildable typewriter or a bunch of flowers. I’ve seen a Ratatouille set get rejected several times for significantly less interesting ideas.

@dodgeinterceptor7 8 ай бұрын

Thanks for the great review Balázs, I am so glad you got this set for early review, as you really value these options and create remarkable content. This is by far my favourite from BDP Series 1 and I will definitely buy one of these to integrate into my 12V train layout and the good old 7750 steam locomotive will be the first to puff into the engine shed for some repairs.

@kentslocum 8 ай бұрын

Thanks for this review! I especially appreciate your discussion of what sets the Bricklink Designer Program apart from LEGO Ideas, since many people don't understand the difference. I agree that the high prices and exclusivity of the sets in the BDP are not meant to encourage hoarding for resale, but instead to make it possible for fan designers to have their detailed MOCs realized as close to their original design as possible. 😊

It's a pretty cool set, and I like all the detail inside. From the outside....it's a bit small and the glossy roof doesn't look great either And I did like the additional stuff from the original Ideas version If I was looking for an engine shed with around €200, I'd rather go for the one from BlueBrixx. As for BDP, I quite like the concept, but I think they should get rid of the 30k limit to discourage scalpers.And I have a few issues with this wave. I don't mind this train shed, as it is unlike anything Lego has on offer. The Parisian Street looks like a lesser Modular set, and the Mountain Fortress feels a bit too close to the Lion Knights' Castle. The other two sets look fine, just not for me. And again a focus on expensive sets, with just one below €100....

@friedrichweitzer3071 8 ай бұрын

I plan to get both for a comparison. Considering the price it's not THAT bad... yes looking at you Star Wars and Marvel series. I also got the hospital from Bluebrixx and the LEGO version. Honestly, the more I look at the LEGO hospital the more I hate it. I was moving my modular building row around, pushed it aside and it fell apart!

@brutto2575 8 ай бұрын

It looks so good! I love to see it in its real size and not just in a computer program. It looks so much more alive and beautiful!❤❤❤

@maddadbricks 8 ай бұрын

BDP is absolutely the way to go for fan designers now. Ideas started out as an amazing program, but it's way too saturated now. There's also too much confusion around it. LEGO fans get annoyed when LEGO changes the submitted design, but that's not what they were really voting on. It was always just the product pitch NOT the set. BDP is what people think Ideas is, and it DELIVERS! 🖤💙💜💙🖤

Man, if only we had some nice official steam train models from Lego to put in it. I mean I guess you could use the Harry potter or orient express ones but they'd look a bit out of place in a dingy old shed. We need a tank engine or something.

@DrNoppe 8 ай бұрын

Hi Balasz. Thanks for the review. As a train lover I will get this of course. But I am surprised to see that Bricklink sets are getting expensive. LEGO of course is aware of the resell value and is trying to make some additional buck. The last round sold out within hours. Interesting to see this now with 30k copies. We will find out I. A weeks time 😊

@patrick924 8 ай бұрын

I think that this set is a reference from set number 10027 Train engine shed. Think that the designer had this idea in mind. To be fair, i find bricklink or ideas sets, not really official lego sets but more like the mocs you can find online. (If they are official why not put them on there own official webstore since this feels more like a ''you're not good enough for us but we will make money of you'').

@maxthrust976 8 ай бұрын

This is my fave of this batch. I'm gonna have to try to get this and an Orient Express. I don't have room for a working train but I could definitely squeeze this and a train into my city as a static display.

OMG!!😮 This Old Train🚂 Engine Shed is actually a full-size bricked up🧱Building!! Love the old school architecture, the contrasting brick colors, the roof, the small details(gantry crane!)and minifigs, side builds, but most of all the space inside!! It fits that HP Train easily, and has such a realistic feeling interior. Know there's some LEGO Train🚃 fans in the community who'll appreciate this basically custom MOC. A deal really at $230, especially if you have the space in a track layout for it and for sure this one's investment grade. Big Props to the designer!!😃 Even the walls on it look fun to build!👍

@joshslater2426 8 ай бұрын

If this were cheaper it would be an instant purchase. I have a lot of Lego trains, but nowhere to store them. A couple of these shed builds would work a treat.

@R0Sch88 8 ай бұрын

Interesting that this set already contains the glossy 8x16 tile, introduced in 2024, which means it will replace the matt finish one for future UCS sets as well. Must be easier to print without the rough surface, or it needs less print layers for the same print quality. Sadly the ugly sprue mark is still on the front. Also, the 6x6 remained matt, so the roof will look weird with the mix of surface roughness.

If I get this set I would honestly turn it more into if it's been abandoned for years and put the ghost train express in it since that set's train already expresses abandoned and run down (what with the cracked glass stickers for the front of the train, the beat up/scratch mark stickers for the sides, and overall it's general appearance.)

@RacingBrick 8 ай бұрын

Whatever they do, people will complain. I personally don't think 2 sets encourage scalpers that much, maybe if it would be 5 or so. It's an opportunity for people to build one, and there'll be some left for the secondary market. A lot of countries are left out, that will be their only chance to get these sets.

@idonjohnson6999 8 ай бұрын

Being limited to just two, that seems to prevent scalping, not encouraging it.

@sypialnia_studio 8 ай бұрын

@PlazDreamweaver it seems lego never considers the secondary market (well, maybe except star wars line). That's why they limited this round to only 2 copies per person. That is not a normal free-market thing. Imagine you go to buy trousers and there's a limit for only two pairs.

I think the 30,000 order limit is unfortunate. It fosters investors gobbling up the inventory, resulting in over inflated prices for those who want to build and enjoy the set. The whole premise of LEGO prospecting sickens me. Neat set though.

A few years back a similar program was run through Bricklink. There was a 5000 unit cap and the cool sets were gone in half an hour. That miss-run program turned me off of lego for a for a few years. I started building and buying again a few months ago. I will be curious to see how badly this program plays out. I get the need for a minimum run but I do not understand why Lego puts a production run maximum on any of these. Presumably they make a profit on each set sold so why stop sales at an arbitrary number that kills the vibe for those who miss out?

Hey, when everyone and their mom is buying, it’s time to sell. Look up the EBay prices of the sold listings. I can’t sell Winnie the Pooh for 120 Euros. EBay commission will eat 10-13%. Plus shipping. Doesn’t make sense to buy all this plastic and then try to sell it. I am selling part of my collection now, I wish I’ve never bought some sets, it’s such a hassle to get rid of them. Even the GWP is difficult to get rid of.
