Blacktron Cruiser Comparison! LEGO 6894 and 40580

[@niklausbachmann6437]

I REALLY hope Lego keeps making these retro sets for their classic themes. I’ll make sure I get them all.

[@CheeseyStudios]

They're so great. I'd love to see Pirates or Adventurers!

[@NoahgotLEGO]

Hopefully as retail sets and not gift with purchases

[@Idiottyrant]

@@NoahgotLEGO speaking facts I swear! I had no problem picking up this set because I've been intending to pick up some late gifts Christmas lol and this "free" little set was a great addition but it made me just feel a little bothered when the Black Tron cruiser rang up at the Lego store till as 30$. Why not have this set both be available for retail sale and as a "free" gift! Lego should just keep makin awesomeeee sets and make some of them free gifts, hmpft...

[@fn-pug5447]

The thing I really like about these retro sets are the box art for them

[@henrikkongsligjerde2079]

I think including stickers give the advantage of making your own custom blacktron mocs. I kinda hope the "masks" for the upcoming Bionicle promo are clear stickers just so you can make Onua using Takua's mask

[@CheeseyStudios]

That's a good point! I could see a sticker sheet alone from this set be coming quite valuable.

@@CheeseyStudios The sticker sheet I got in mine was misaligned so it’s cut off and has the start of another sticker sheet

[@bricksfordom]

Wow they both look awesome, I like how the newest version is more modernized, but still looks familiar to the old one, though it is a shame that they didn't remake the plates in trans red, because they look glorious, but overall it still looks incredible

[@CheeseyStudios]

They've been making so many weird transparent pieces lately too, so I was a bit surprised we didn't see one here. I'm not sure they'd introduce new pieces for a GWP though - just new prints.

[@bricksfordom]

@@CheeseyStudios true true

[@alterego2275]

I had a Blacktron minifigure in my first ever set in 1990 and that was Space Police 6781 SP-Striker, back in the time when Lego was still highly innovative working with sound and light, unlike today. It's nice to see that Lego is remaking some of those classics and I hope we'll be getting more of those.

[@CheeseyStudios]

Oh yeah! I thought I had heard they showed up in prisoners in Space Police. The melding between the themes is super cool

[@shinyrayquaza9]

I love weird transparent pieces, but I do like how the tiles give the fins a textured look

[@CheeseyStudios]

Yeah, it does have a nice feel to it!

I just got the Galaxy Explorer for Christmas and I absolutely love the set. When I learned about the Blacktron Cruiser I knew that I’d be able to get me dream set (the new Delorean) for $200 and get this all in one go. Adding some amazing sets to my collection. I’m so excited to get this set and thank you for the history lesson. This was cool!!!

[@CheeseyStudios]

Awesome! I hear such good things about the Delorean! That's a pretty sweet LEGO haul. Glad you enjoyed the video too :D

[@titanic_monarch796]

Very fun set and nice too see one of my favourite classic figs back! I have to admit I shelled out for the GWP- although I'm rather looking forward to it arriving with my Galaxy Explorer, I still rather wish it was released regularly.

[@CheeseyStudios]

Definitely. Hopefully when the 10th anniversary rolls around we get a bunch of small remakes regularly available!

[@ZopcsakFeri]

Blacktron I had already been ongoing when I got into the LEGO universe, but Blacktron II was the one of which I actually got to own an actual set (the tri-wheeled buggy). But my ultimate wishlist set was this Blacktron Cruiser that I kept flipping back to in my hand-down catalogs (without internet, those catalogs were the only place I could see them). This episode is massively nostalgic to me. Thank you!

[@CheeseyStudios]

Really glad you enjoyed this! I do miss the catalogues too. My brother and I would browse them for hours...

[@taiga_tagamari5636]

wow that redesign looks amazing i hope that they redesign the other blacktron sets aswell or the yellow castle would be amazing to have a redesign of cuz of like the masonary bricks and more shades of yellow making it more detailed idk if lego has done a redesign of the yellow castle before but meh worth a shot (btw cheesey studios i rly love ur content i myself love lego and i rly love the lego minecraft series cuz its so satisfying to see the build come togheter and i also love that you have a great life after each video u make it rly light my up on the inside)

[@CheeseyStudios]

A full-scale yellow castle remake would be awesome! I'm really glad you're enjoying the videos here

[@gordzilla8443]

Funny thing is, I’ve had this minifigure for years, the original I mean, and I never knew until I started seeing this set! My dad gave me all his old LEGO when I was little and I destroyed most of the minifigs he had, oops, and once I started seeing this set, I’ve searched and managed to rebuild the minifigure!

[@CheeseyStudios]

That's epic! You'll have to see what set he came with. There might be some printed Blacktron pieces around to help narrow it down 👀

[@thatguythatdoesstuff5899]

I got it and I have to say it looks way better without the cargo section. Especially when you see that without it the yellow and transparent red lines are continuous from front to rear.

[@CheeseyStudios]

Yeah! The shorter ships for both models look so good.

[@samwill7259]

I still think the whole "ONLY available as a gift" thing is a crock If they wanted to make it a gift, fine, but let people buy it individually if they want to. It's so transparent what the LEGO group is pulling here, weaponizing FOMO against their most loyal customers.

[@EpicoNubletto]

Exactly this. It must be a massive money maker for them, prompting people to keep making big purchases to keep getting the cool gifts 😅

[@CheeseyStudios]

An either/or option would be great. They could easily sell this at $30-$40 and obviously still profit off it, and also offer it for free for those who make the larger purchases. But they know they've got fans in their pockets, so they're going to keep raising the thresholds and making cool sets...

[@TheGabbaGhoul666]

I love this set it’s a great build, I just wish I didn’t have to have to get past such a paywall If Lego made a line of these reimagined sets of their own I think they would sell amazingly well

[@CheeseyStudios]

I do wish these would be regularly available too. That would be so awesome.

[@lukestarkiller1470]

Man I do really like this set and would have tried to get it but $190 is a bit much especially since I’m also going to try and get the Bionicle gift with purchase next month, I just wish these gift with purchase sets were available to buy as regular sets, I think they’d definitely sell pretty well

[@CheeseyStudios]

They sure know how to get money out of us lol.. I wish they were regularly available too. They could make a whole theme out of these remakes!

[@niklausbachmann6437]

An Orient Expedition/Adventurers GWP would be amazing. Or classic pirates and castle.

[@CheeseyStudios]

Yes! Adventurers is my dream remake

[@fonesrphunny7242]

My dad was in the military at the time. When he came home one WE, he brought this kit with him. Collected all 3 vehicles. Paired well with Space Police. Good times.

[@Rylocand]

I’ve ordered this gift with purchase not only for the fun build but the stickers which I think I might be able to use for a Zelda moc. I’m going to display it as the smaller ship in order to use a sticker or two though. I hope I’ll get one because the last gifts with purchase were out of stock really fast

[@CheeseyStudios]

Hopefully it stays in stock!

[@janthecreator7397]

got this gorgeous set as well, but both my instructions and sticker sheet were folded... The sticker sheet's outline was even attached to one of the bags! I had a minor heart attack while unpacking it. But nonetheless, the set is amazing and it actually inspired me to build some custom Blacktron vehicles! Great review, as always!

[@CheeseyStudios]

I'm really sorry to hear about the stickers 😭 LEGO needs to make backing standard for sets with sticker sheets, no matter the size!

[@terminatort9254]

I know they’ve already remade a classic pirate ship, but I hope they remake the Skull Eye Schooner. I’ve been wanting to get the original for years now and still haven’t.

[@Marco1973est]

Cheesy Studios : I love your Logo, very original. Also, your review is one of the more balanced spot on reviews I've seen online. Love your calm demeanor and your knowledgeable, review to the era. I sold my entire 70’s 80’s 90’s 2000s collection back in 2021. Kept a few sets - The Blacktron Invader was a set I sold. New with Box and instructions. Although the GWP Cruiser is a direct update re- imagined, what strikes me about this reboot is that the pieces back in 1987 were so much cooler and stronger. 4 specific examples : 1) The Robot had a cooler body piece used at the time. 2) The middle cargo piece was a solid piece and was printed. 3) The clear red transparent panels in the back were nicer. 4) finally the black connector pieces were stronger and less flimsy then the clasps used in this update. (Technic) The motion arrows, were on the original showing where you could attach and take apart the pieces of the ship. At the time for Lego that was such a exit from their normal pallet of colors that they always went with. They rarely, if ever produced in black, accept for City Police - so it was a great variation to what they produced from the preceding 30 years........ You can view my collection being sold on Atlanta Brick 🧱 Company - 5-31-2021 OG Classic Star Wars Lego Hauuuuuul. There you will see the mint condition of half of my collection I sold. Including the original Invader.

[@CheeseyStudios]

I'll definitely have to give that ABC video a look - sounds pretty epic! You bring up a lot of good points about the parts from the original. I love that weird control panel piece used for the robot body. I've been trying to collect more of those lately. I did wonder what the motion arrows were for, and that makes a lot of sense now! It would be so cool to mix and match all the classic stuff together.

[@Marco1973est]

@@CheeseyStudios **Also i forgot to mention. You were also spot on about the printed pieces. Back in the 70's when I was a kid, stickers were the norm, then LEGO went to printing, which I loved. However, I was disappointed to see stickers for this set as well. I do wish LEGO would've done printed for the Cruiser and any of the retro sets. You explained yourself well, but what did you mean about it would be hard for LEGO to reprint again? Meaning, they wouldn't run printed pieces for limited edition sets? I can't see how that would be so hard in 2023? Or am I missing a certain point?

[@TOA5T-fg1tw]

For some reason I’ve really been liking the older lego sets and themes and this GWP looks awesome! I’m getting it in my order that includes the 007 car and then a 2000 piece custom build of the WTC 1 to scale with the 21046 set. Keep up the good work and great review!

[@Garinovitch]

I got mine and it's a very lovely set, I'm happy to have it. I still feel for needing to spend almost 200 dollars, Lego should have printed pieces, at least the nose, the tile piece with the area, , the back slope with the logo and the console. If this was an every day set you can just buy at the store, I'd be alot more forgiving, but this is something very costly to get. But don't get me wrong, I'm not going to throw a fit or anything I am happy to see more classic remakes, and I hope we get even more!

[@CheeseyStudios]

That's very valid. Not having the console printed did catch me by surprise.

[@Garinovitch]

@@CheeseyStudios Yeah, I also feel the stickers are very simple in design. designs were alot more complicated then I'd be completely understanding for the need of stickers, but these were very simple. I was half tempted to buy a printed version of that nose piece from the original set but the yell is alot more vivid.

[@trueblox9711]

Honestly the set is wonderful but I will definitely not waste almost 200 dollars just to get it as a gift with purchase, I'd rather buy it off of bricklink separately.

[@carrot4208]

I am very confused with the apparent Legend of Zelda Triforce logo everywhere. Not sure you know what I'm talking about but both the original set and the first Zelda NES game were released at the same time. Is that some kind of lawsuit copyright thingy.

[@CheeseyStudios]

You lose a lot of that vibrance unfortunately. The original's are so striking!

[@T0ffik1]

18+ old for simple build - yeah its nostalgia release :). Stickers do rly are a bummer tbh.

[@cytrilicious9285]

Unfortunately the only remaining part I have of the OG is the torso, and some miscellaneous parts.

[@CheeseyStudios]

Blacktron parts definitely tend to blend in with everything else with its simple color scheme.

[@Tornadius_]

It is cool

[@CheeseyStudios]

I do love what they've been doing with the remakes.

[@A_blacktron_fan]

I bought the new one for £21.99 on brick link

[@CheeseyStudios]

Nice find!

[@TomKazutara]

4:13 No, just no. Every wave of every Lego 4+ theme, from 10.- upwards comes with new and specialized prints. It isn't unrealistic, Lego is just lazy.

[@CheeseyStudios]

Not lazy, but rather *greedy* I suspect...

[@yukimarusword]

Couldn't grab this one because of the price I needed to spend. There wasn't any sets I liked.

[@Epacana5]

So that front piece is the first Nintendo Lego eh? I count it as it

[@CheeseyStudios]

It's hard not to see Zelda 😂

[@Epacana5]

@@CheeseyStudios lol

[@reothadh8569]

for the amount of money you have to spend to get the set its really dissapointing that they went with stickers still

[@CheeseyStudios]

Yeah. I feel they could have gotten creative and reused the same printed part in multiple places

[@neptunemacaw3354]

blacktron in legend of zelda confirmed.

[@CheeseyStudios]

Basically lol xD

[@AdrianPerez-bz1tr]

For a second I thought we finally got a Zelda set lol.

[@CheeseyStudios]

You definitely wouldn't be alone there 😂

[@Scotts_Aviation]

Hello cheesy

[@CheeseyStudios]

Hello!

[@Shyrrn]

WAS THAT THE BITE OF 87!!!! ...sorry Markiplier reference... i do however regret not spending 190 euro on that black tron set...

[@CheeseyStudios]

lol! I don't regret it either. I 'had' to get a bunch of stuff from LEGO.com anyway...

[@gtavicemaster]

This felt a bit like a commercial tbh

[@CheeseyStudios]

I'd be curious to know what made you think that and if it's good or bad. If I'm sounding like a robot, I certainly want to know, ha!

[@gtavicemaster]

@@CheeseyStudios I meant it in a bad way, for me it felt way too much like you're selling the Jan 1 releases and the gwp just a tad bit more than those honestly deserve.

[@CheeseyStudios]

@@gtavicemaster I appreciate the feedback! I was genuinely quite excited about this one as I love the remakes. I did pay full price for this with a $200 order, and it felt worth it to me personally.

[@GMO--ge4ir]

Ummm,You have a *GORGE🖤US* head o' hair‼️ 🤷

[@CheeseyStudios]

Aw, thank you! ❤️
