[@aidentorres5174]

Im just sayin, he cares about the proportions of the aat, but doesn’t care about the proportions for the fighter tank, the most recent one is so much more accurate in design and proportions, and on top of that its mini-figure scale, maybe slightly smaller in the area where the figure sits, the 2009 republic fighter tank is like almost 3 times the size that it should be, and not to mention it’s proportions are off like crazy, plus all you get is two clones, TWO in a 50 dollar set, versus the new aat where u get 4 better figures, and u can make some simple mods to the aat now by just removing some parts and its accuracy increases significantly

[@gbrow1604]

@Venator Bricks The 2009 AAT is way more accurate than the 2020 AAT.

[@gbrow1604]

With the republic fighter tank, it's about the scale of the set. With the AAT it's about the proportions. There's a difference. And the 2020 aat is not fixable with a few mods. Nearly all the proportions are wrong. The top section is way too big, the mid section is too boxy and is missing the strip, and the bottom section is also missing a stripe and isn't deep enough, not to mention the whole thing is undersized.

[@aidentorres5174]

@@gbrow1604 nah but you miss what in sayin, you can modify the top and the cannon with pieces from the set to make it more accurate. I think the 2009 AAT is better for sure but that fighter tank is way too big and disproportionate.

[@gbrow1604]

@@aidentorres5174 I'm saying that modifying the cannon of the AAT barely makes it more accurate. And the proportions of the fighter tank aren't way off. The top section is just a little too tall. I know it's very oversized but that has nothing to do with proportions.

[@PhlippinPhil]

The number of times I've said this.. he totally ignores how much more accurate the new republic fighter tank is than the old one. He also points out the flatness of the new one, but if you look at pictures or play SWBF2, they are pretty dang flat! Lol. He also is fine with the size of the 20th anniversary and 501st AT-RT sizes so I guess the takeaway is M&R doesn't mind if something is massively over sized, because that somehow doesn't impact accuracy.

[@Dockultra]

As a proud owner of the 2020 AAT I have to say that the playability and minifigs of this set are amazing ! Sooo the joke at the start hurt my feeling a bit ngl

[@kyleruiz7167]

It goes pretty well with the recent Republic fighter tank too, they're not mirco vehicle small or huge but like the perfect scale to eachother

@@tigerbesteverything exactly. He doesn’t like it because it’s completely out of proportion. The 2009 one is way better, and eleven years older. Although the minifigures are more detailed now, I prefer the selection of the 2009 one (although if they had replaced yoda with another battle droid or clone trooper that would be perfect) because it’s just much larger than anything Lego would do now.

The New TIE is really growing on me. I was not pumped on it, but after building it and seeing it next to my Falcon and other ships, it looks right. I’m also really interested in getting a few of them and building an interceptor and advanced model in the same scale.

[@BB21GAMING]

Question for Mandr: What are Lego sets you used to love but now you hate?

[@NaD-o2p]

I have always loved the little clone tank. I still love the clone tank. Or 'IFT-X' for my fellow Battlefront veterans. It scales really well and the proportions are almost perfect. The only downside is the lack of laser turret but I can get over that.

[@whitechili4168]

For the Twilight, I found it half-off at the LEGO store, and I had no interest in it, but my mom was like, "it's a big set for half-off so you should get it," and I guess I did or something, even though I didn't want it, but after building it and having it in person, it was actually pretty cool. It had some cool play features like the door in the back, the grappling hook, the escape pod, etc. It was also much larger than I thought it would be, which was pretty cool. I do kinda wish I got the AT-TE instead, but I learned to not hate on the Twilight too.

@@FatallyYours230 I actually like it too. It’s not minimum playability due to the laser things, and the staff that Finn holds is quite nice. A feature that most don’t know is the circle thing that goes by the laser things can rotate up, preventing it from shooting.

[@sierratango1222]

I wish I would've gotten into Lego Star Wars a lot sooner. I felt it when you mentioned the ARC170. That set is on my wish list, along with the Republic Gunship, Drop Ship, AT OT, and the buildable figures

[@StormX6]

I’ve never really “hated” a Lego set, but I guess I didn’t like the BTTF Delorean, Age of Ultron Hulkbuster, and a lot of the Jurassic World sets. Most can agree, the Delorean is pretty blocky and ugly with a bumpy hood and no windows. Hulkbuster I always thought was too big compare to the hulk bigfig and some of the Jurassic World sets were inaccurate with vehicles that weren’t in the movie. However, I actually like the Delorean, it’s highly detailed in the back, the doors open upwards, and the wheels go down. The Hulkbuster grew on me because of it’s unique, bulky, mech design. The Jurassic World theme, while still inaccurate grew on me because of the colorful and fun builds with some decent minifigures, and great dinosaurs. The Jurassic World theme is now my one of my favorite Lego themes now.

[@andrejspasvelk233]

5:14 I was surprised to see this set on the list, but I agreed with your arguements. I love this set purely of nostalgia. I remember building it at my grandparents' house, and this set is kind of a symbol of my grandparents' house, which I love.

[@cloudcleaver23]

That fighter tank is properly minifigure scale. The other one was laughably oversized.

[@SelvesteSand]

Nah, the older one was minifigure scale, or maybe very slightly oversized. The newer one is way undersized. There should be room for two pilots in the cockpit, besides the gunner in the hatch and an astromech. Look at that new version, no one could possibly fit in there even if it were hollow, nor could they look out of those tiny windows.

[@gbrow1604]

That Cad Bane's speeder really gets overlooked as one of the most overpriced sets ever. $50 for that on it's own is bad but it's even worse when you consider that adjusted for inflation the price is $60!

Honestly, for me as a kid, it was any Clone Wars related sets (which ended up being the ones I got) I still liked having them and had fun building them but I didn't fully appreciate them back then, I had wished i had Anakins starfighter from RoTs or something. My sets just ended up in pieces and I just built my own little vehicles with them. But getting back into legos as a adult (and now being a fan of Clone Wars) I am so excited to look for my old lego sets I had as a kid. The two I really want to find are Anakins Y-wing with Ashoka and the Magna Guard starfighter. I can't believe I had these super awesome sets and I instead just scrapped them for loose legos.

There's alot on this list that I actually highly value because of the minifigure selection, specifically the ones with the prequel Jedi Masters. Lego rarely does the background Jedi characters that the EU brought alot of life to in the Star Wars Republic comic series and the Clone Wars Multimedia Project from 2003(ish)-2005(ish) so its really cool to have background characters like Quinlan Vos and Aylaa Secura in the updated "movie" look.

[@GarryDumblowski]

I remember seeing the lego Tie Dagger (aka Sith Tie Fighter) and being really put off by the price-per-piece but eventually realizing that the reason it was like that is because the solar panels are made with a ton of ginormous plates. Still overpriced though. I ended up taking it apart to try and make my own MOC version of the tie fighter, because I thought the original model looked really ugly. Originally I simply polished the wings and tried to move the center of mass slightly forward (to moderate success), but eventually I ended up just completely redoing the entire dome. I'm currently waiting on a bricklink order for parts I need to finish the rebuilt dome, in fact.

So I'm quite a bit older than you Ryan, and I grew up before the prequels. I read all the EU books, and I played X-Wing for PC and TIE Fighter for PC. As a kid, I bought Lego Pirate and then got out of LEGO. I was in a LEGO store just looking and there was the TIE DEFENDER. It was the first Lego Star Wars set I ever bought. I got so excited and nostalgic because in the TIE FIGHTER game its the best fighter. In the Star Wars Rebellion game its also the best fighter. I bought it in a heartbeat because I was so excited. I don't like it. It is floppy and fragile. It does not display well because over time the wings hand down a bit. I was very disappointed in it. I might in the future, buy some MOC directions to make another one I like better.

very surprising to see hate on Tie Defender, it's a fan favourite tie variant also called by a vast majority of SW fans the best fighter during the galactic civil war era, both in Legends and in Disney Canon. This fighter is and was insane in every book or video game it appeared in, in Empire at War a few wings of those fighters could decimate everything other than anti-fighter corvettes, and against those corvettes they could power through them (although with heavy loses). Thrawn minifig would be nice but this set was introduced before Rebels, where Thrawn had more to do with Tie/d program. In Legends he was around, but it was mostly Admiral Zaarin's project
