Let me congratulate you on an honest and thorough review. Given your background as a former employee of Lego and having been sent the product for free, I would think you would be less critical of the problems with this set. This review gave me great respect for you and your work.

LEGO cured my FOMO by forcing me to me miss out on sets because of their terrible prices. Thank you LEGO! You saved me a lot of money!

[@ondrejm5042]

i think they are in process of curing me - i was so pumped up for this set, i skipped many of the other UCS as i dont collect oversized vehicles - only minifig sized one which could be used in large scenarios/landscapes This set is such a letdown with too many issues that i would think twice if i should spend 300eur on it.

ALL they had to do was include the Skiff + Sarlacc Pit set from earlier this year. Then the price would (just about) be justified. They could even make it a non-exclusive GWP for all Sail-barge buyers.

I read that as including the sail barge as the GWP for people who bought the skiff lol

[@kk_bricks8043]

I couldn't agree more! Those should have been included as a bonus set inside of this one to justify the price and wouldn't canibolize sales as if someone just wanted to buy the Sarlac pit for $80 they could do so seperately.

Yeah that price is wild. This is a $400 set. The figs are really a let down IMO too. This set should be combined with the Sarlac pit for a $450.00 price tag with the GWP as well and it would be a smash day one purchase.

As much as i think the proce is way too high, the studded look on the outside looks great. The barge would look very strange smooth

Yeah, the studs are nice. Especially here, makes it look rugged.

[@TheFirstCurse1]

I agree.

[@yurisei6732]

Agreed. There are a lot of models I prefer with the smooth look, but Tatooine is a scrapyard planet, and the bare studs give it a scuffed up look that's about as close as you'd get to the irregular painting on the barge from the film. It could just do with a few slotted tiles here and there I think to break up the larger sections of studs.

[@zennar1537]

[@KastaRules]

What a kick in the nuts that price tag is.

[@jackham2549]

I think the studs work for the barge. From what I remember of the movie it was weathered and not mint. The plethora of access windows stood out. To me the studs help create this look better than if it was all tiled with raised access windows

[@schnitzeldog2000]

I actually really enjoy the studs on this one as well!

[@AHYL88]

For further context of how hugely overpriced this is, this costs the same as 76269 Avengers Tower, which has almost three times the number of figures and is a drastically larger set. Knocking $100 to meet the so-called perfect price per part ratio is being too generous; this needs $150 knocked off because there just isn't that much substance here even at $400, so $350 is where it should be. Am I being too harsh and asking too much? Yes, but then so is Lego asking for half a grand for a set that's a lot smaller than other sets of the same price range.

[@aaron3822]

You are not being too harsh at all, this should be 350 Max. Lego is just being REALLY greedy here. I hope this doesnt sell well

[@freedelahoyathesuperzblade5743]

​@@aaron3822 If we're REALLY being nice to Lego I think the absolute maximum price is still $400, but yeah this should realistically/objectively be a $350. "Lego"? Might as well change the name to "Greedgo" 🤣

[@yetisayshi-36]

The cup with the brown liquid came in an $11 friend’s set earlier this year. If anybody wants one it is a cheap set to get it in

[@landonweldy5468]

Skiff and Sarlaac pit definitely should've been included in this, not separately

[@ondrejm5042]

maybe just the skiff with another alien crew, and the skiff set with pit should include 2 more aliens and correct Boba from ROTJ and it would be perfect

[@inkermoy]

Interesting interiors, but maybe they could have had more space for the band near Jabba. But this seems more like a playset than display piece and should be cheaper for parents to buy their kids. That being said, the leg details on Slave Leia could have been done better or more accurate. The crimson loincloth color could extend down almost to the feet, and be painted just in the center, having the flesh color of the legs on the side. The outfit also had short green booties. As it is, Leia looks like she's wearing a pair of shorts and ready to stand knee deep in a creek looking for crawdads.

[@TheRocco96]

I agree on princes Leia not looking like in the movie. She didn't wear short pants in the movie. Also the box says 18+ so there was no need to cover up Leia.

[@amauryantoine418]

Two reviews in one day is just incredible. Keep up the good work❤❤❤

[@daanvanderleest7171]

I used to own the 2006 Jabba's Sail Barge so this set feels very nostalgic to me. There are some things about the Minifigures that could have been better in my opinion, but it's still an awesome set.

[@fractalelf7760]

The failure in product management here is posing this a UCS when it very clearly should have been a Master Builder Series like the Mos Eisley Cantina set as it’s striving to be both a display piece and a play-set. Thus the pricing is out of line, and the ridiculous decision to save a few bucks and use the later “fat Fortuna” headpiece in lieu of the correct original one just shows how little they now respect accuracy and the buyer. This doesn’t even touch on the lack of all the other characters and the missing Skiff/Sarlac pit… I adore my original fake-controversy Jabba’s Palace and the later Jabba’s Barge and Skiff sets…. Hard pass on this set.

[@ondrejm5042]

The idiocy and disrespect of the SW team has reached a new level. There is so much wrong with this set. It could have been done right and it would be a day 1 buy even for the 500eur if done right. If you compare the details on the figs with any CMF, its atrociousness how much details and new molds is put into a 4eur figure while laziness and cheapening is given to a 500eur premium product.

Dont forget Tessek which should use the female skirt leg piece and quaren head fro BoBF palace set. Yotts Orren and Klaatu use the same headpiec as Wooof -> they could throw one of them in this set and the other one in the 80eur overpriced skiff and make the most of the new mold and so please the fans

[@csiki911]

I have 2 problem with the figs... first the missing pupils for Salacious B. Crumb... I have no idea why and who thought at LEGO, that these no pupil eyes look good 😅 And the second is Leia's legs. dual molded legs are usually nice, but if you check the pictures from the movie, it looks totally different... She had a skirt, with open sides, and based on this minifig it looks like she had a red shorts... 😬 Btw the set is pricey, however I will have to purchase because of the lightsaber GWP... 😅

[@TiagoCatarino]

It's bad enough to have a slave on a LEGO set, so I guess they wanted her to look more respectful and covered up? I really don't know

This is definitely something from Disney's end as they otherwise are adamant about not giving exposure to 'Hutt-slayer' Leia.

[@inkermoy]

@@TiagoCatarino That's an absurd notion. Yes, Jabba made her a slave, but she literally uses her enslavement to dispose of him. It's an empowering moment in the movie. And the outfit is iconic.

[@ondrejm5042]

Leia was simply censored for woke and political reason in a set designed for adults, purchased solely by adults ... Why u need that GWP ? Are u insane or die hard box collector ? Cant you built if from own/purchased bricks ? - if you buy it day one to get the GWP, you make it 150eur worth to u. How can a kitchen with never before exclusive figure (long overdue) sell for 40eur while the sabers (pile of bricks with a plaquete u can print on a sticker on your own printer) are 100eur - i dont get it Especially when for 100eur u can get a real metal replica with led glowing blade designed for dueling, with sounds and motion sensors - i was hasitant to get a lightsaber when the pricepoint for replicas was at 300-400 but at 100e i have 2 now and looking for more - it totaly another dimension to hold the saber, swing it, choosing your favorite blade color, dueling with it - rather than just looking at an inaccurate brick built which is just collecting dust on the shelves - i really dont understand the need for lego statues and helmets when there are other product much better at the job, lego is good for worldbuild, scenarios with minifigures, or building your custom vehicle and ships because its easy to use the bricks rather than do a real modeling or 3D modeling.

[@ondrejm5042]

@@Lilf1ip_ that means SW was always a rip-off. Sad thing is i love the vehicle too and i want to add it to my Tatooine diorama together with cavegods sandcrawler when i ever finish it. But the quality of the final product is atrocious - so i have to build a MOC anyway - maybe will get inspiration from the instructions. The AT-AT was a great build but too overpriced with no bonus to really justify the price - not even at 650eur so i purchased the needed special parts, added a ton of my own LBG bricks and will build 2 following the official instructions, i have several Veerse versions already, multiple drivers and tons of snowtroopers

[@ghostman5620]

Did lego ever fix the brittle brown issues?

[@TiagoCatarino]

Years ago, back when I was still working for LEGO. Somewhere between the Ship in a Bottle and Creators Expert Gingerbread House the issue was fixed so around 2018/2019.

[@inkermoy]

@@TiagoCatarino Wait, so my Ship In A Bottle, one of the first Lego sets I bought as an adult (thank you!) has brittle pieces? I don't handle it that much as it sits center on my fireplace mantle. :D Now if they'd only do a wide release of the jumbo Pirate Minifig.

[@TiagoCatarino]

Depends on which one! If you got the original 21313, some of the clips on the flags may break 🥲 If you got the reedition 92177 I think, then you should be good!

[@BrickMeisterZ]

Even though that LEGO solved their brown piece mistake, why not just release a new Krusty Krab remake set without broken brown pieces?

[@OaktownBricks]

Great Review! Despite its issues, this LEGO Set is definitely a Heater!

[@jared5311]

My only wish is the 4 exterior brown sticker pieces were prints.

[@bomccullar2684]

This set is amazing! Thanks Tiago for the review and for also not dodging the topic of the over priced elephant in the room.

[@Granny_Smith]

I know a lot of people dislike this set. But I absolutely love it! Not actually gonna get it though. Cuz I’m broke💀

[@tylero6367]

I’m sorry but this would’ve been so much more worth the price if it had a lot more unique aliens from the scene (with non reused pieces, bib fortuna…), or if it included the sarlacc pit and skiff

[@MrMcSnuffyFluffy]

The eyes comment. You're killing me with these "inside" jokes (if that makes sense here...maybe I should call them inside jabs). Haha anyway, very entertaining.

[@TiagoCatarino]

What do you mean?! 👀👀👀

[@Mr_Waffle.]

Great review! Absolutely gorgeous set, that interior is amazing. Too bad I don’t have the money or the space for it…

[@undead.rising]

Exactly the same price as Rivendell, which has EVEN MORE figures, and over 2200 pieces more! Same with the Razor Crest (although that's slightly more in price). Both are infinitely more interesting sets to build, rather than being a great big slab of a single-coloured exterior.

[@bobbyc912]

enjoy your Rivendell then. I’ll have this set day 1

[@michaelreilly7106]

For a company based in Denmark they definitely seem to have become Americanized with the attitude of bigger is way better. I would have been happier if this had been half the size. And $500?! They’re even pricing me out of even the smaller sets just based on how much they’re charging for how little they’re giving you.

[@ondrejm5042]

i have the previous 2 small versions - good for kids to play, but i wanted always an minifig sized accurate set - this is just an improved kids set with some nice details but faa from perfect minifig scale representation of this vehicle

[@fabiololli9424]

very great set. I have a question, what is the exact height from the ground to the highest point of the sails?

[@TiagoCatarino]

H: 10" (25cm) W: 31" (77cm) D: 10" (25cm) Acording to LEGO's website

[@briandain8432]

Salacious had a colorful naming back story, beginning with a Tipsy team member slurring SHOE LACES which evolved into Salacious... The B. Crumb is homage to a famous perverted cartoonist, as the Lizard Monkey sat alongside Enslaved Leia.

[@Lbj79]

If I had the money to buy this, I would buy Barad dur!

[@ondrejm5042]

Actually Riwendell first. Barad Dur only on Day 1 with the nazghul (which i did)

[@Gato11st]

This set reminds me of the 2014 UCS Sandcrawler. The 2014 UCS Sandcrawler has 3296 parts, and retailed for $300. The UCS Sail Barge only has 646 more parts, but cost $200 more? Comparing these two sets makes me feel like a better price for the UCS Sail Barge would be in the $350-$400 range. Price aside, I am curious to see what these two sets look like compared to each other, they both seem to have many similarities.

[@andersalstrup3077]

if adjusting for inflation, 300 usd in 2014 would be worth about 400 today. No idea how exactly licensing works, but I'd imagine Jabba and Leia in addition to some other new characters and unique parts (and more in total) like the fabric of the sails could be why its 100 more after the inflation cost

[@Gato11st]

​@@andersalstrup3077 Thanks for letting me know, I completely forgot to think about inflation when writing that message haha. This makes total sense, because the sail barge for sure has more desirable minifigures in it

[@andrewmartin2567]

I’m definitely gonna get it but I’m thinking I’m gonna wait until Christmas or next year sometime to see if I can get a discount

[@warrennewman5325]

Looks massive awsemone minifigs great review 👍

[@Phoon8704]

Love this set but I feel it’s missing the skiff / sarlaac Pitt. Yes you could buy the set separately now but not the point.

[@charisscott9240]

The old max rebo you have is probably different because Lego are changing the way they make their bricks

[@legotechnic8997]

The designers put it perfectly 😂🎉😂

[@ethansensbach7827]

The Skiff being separate is ridiculous.

[@Matthias9319]

I watched a Gorlock the Destoyer video and got recommended this video, very fittig and a great lego set

[@faubjw]

Bought it, love it, hop onboard. Zero chance this goes on sale

[@thorakvideos2495]

Just compare it to Rivendell & it should become clear why this is a failure.

[@BrickMeisterZ]

Rivendell is better

[@SO-ym3zs]

Rivedell is a piece of art, this is just another big Star Wars ship.

[@bobbyc912]

Enjoy your Rivendell. Day 1 purchase for me

[@Lapince78]

Very good review well done Tiago. For me is very good set but price 580 euros for this scène is so expansive

[@Metalizer]
