The LEGO Star Wars HOLY GRAIL? Would I QUIT LEGO YouTube? | ASK MandR 290

[@ryanbrancaccio7768]

The editor needs and applaud for all of the great work he puts into editing the videos.

[@Ghjgfjjgv]

Am I missing something? This video has very minimal editing lol

[@DesignedAssassin]

@@Ghjgfjjgv It's not just about the effects and CGI in a video editing my friend, it's about all of the cuts and clips used in a way to make the viewer entertained throughout the video!

[@Ghjgfjjgv]

@@DesignedAssassin So trimming? The term “editing” refers to exactly that, editing a clip. A friend of mine is a paid shorts editor and adds captions, sound effects and visuals. Personally I don’t see how trimming a clip is warranting of praise of the “editor”, in fact since it’s just trimming, I’d be willing to bet he doesn’t have an editor and trims down the content himself

[@DesignedAssassin]

@@Ghjgfjjgv In this case captions and other CGI effects aren't needed. Just trimming and clips/pictures to visualize what MandR is talking about during the question. Also the editors notes are always funny :)

[@Ghjgfjjgv]

@@DesignedAssassin I mean it’s Lego content it most certainly is for 10 year olds as well as 9 year olds, 12 year olds and all other ages. And was just making sure I wasn’t missing anything, the way this guy was praising the editor you’d think it was heavily edited or something lol

[@MarvinMcCaster]

AskMandR: Do you think for LEGO Star Wars anniversary years like 2024, LEGO should do a fan vote for sets and characters to be released? I think it would be a cool way to engage with the fans more by doing these votes not as a common thing, but to honor milestones of the LSW theme.

[@twiggs24]

If lego did a fan vote they would just end up doing whatever they wanted. We want to army build not have 15 different versions of Luke's landspeeder.

[@cooltool.nem.n.nem.]

I can tell how dedicated you are when you compare sets for us. Such a legend

[@dantematellini6464]

Imagine a world without the 501st Clone Battle Pack. Thank you Zach and Drew for inspiring the great talent that M&R is today!

[@fritz404]

Ask MandR: Please tell us.

[@repticare101]

he’s literally told us in previous content

[@IMSanimations]

Lol

[@nonameproductions39]

Tell us what?

[@huntermayne1506]

the people deserve to know

[@TheFirstCurse1]

That's private information that's none of your business. If he says no then you'd all just be jerks and make fun of him. If he says yes then you'd all ask "Who is it?" and "Can we get pictures of you 2?". Leave it alone FFS.

[@bennettlewis9418]

Ask MandR; If you could either fix the double hole issue or bring back waist capes/karmas which one would you choose

[@hanselmansell7555]

😂 mind blown...

[@cooltool.nem.n.nem.]

Oh dang that’s tough

[@Brave_Sir_Robin]

We shouldn’t have to compromise! But if i could only pick one it would definitely be the cloth kamas. While the holes are ugly af- i just really think the cloth adds an extra dimension to the figures that just can’t be beat

[@egsaladsandvich5319]

I’d definitely fix waste capes. While some people think helmet holes are ugly, they at least have a purpose and allow people to be a bit more creative with their clones. Printed waist capes are just ugly with no purpose

[@bennettlewis9418]

@@Brave_Sir_Robin I’m totally with you on that. If Lego is really trying to target adults then yeah give us the most accurate stuff they can do, which they have done before

[@jacksons8015]

Have you ever considered making custom microfighter scale Mocs? I think it would be cool and easy. Love the channel keep it up.

[@capybara2671]

Hot tip: if you worry a retiring set might sell out or price drop just buy it now. Keep the receipt with the item and wait. If you find it cheaper buy and return with old receipt.

[@DragonNexus]

Assuming you find it within the return window of the original receipt.

[@MaxBricksYT]

Just wanted to say that this was one of the best Ask MandRs, been watching since episode 1, this one felt very nostalgic with all the questions! It’s crazy I’ve been watching you since 2017 and now I still am. Favorite YT channel still

[@transformersfan8923]

Ask MNR: With the rumored return of the B2 Battle Droid in 2024, there with it comes an implication that the tall droid legs have been fixed. Now that the snapping legs have supposedly been fixed, what kind of sets would like to see include figures like BX Commandos and IG-100 Magnaguards? Me personally, I'd love a Droid Specialist Battle Pack that includes 2 Commando Droids, 2 Magnaguards, and the build being a mini J-1 Proton Cannon as seen in the Clone Wars.

[@octobotimus]

Props to the editor for the quick edits and stopping any possible confusion!

[@sagedaffodil3033]

I think editor was confused. M&R was probably talking about the Dark Trooper Attack, not the helmet.

[@dubart5918]

Ask Mandr: If someone broke into your house, which set would you fight them with.

[@XmerlijnX]

Thor's hammer ⚡

[@theiranianputin2770]

Captain's Shield with Thor's Hammer tbh

[@legoclonetrooper4197]

Inform Mandr: I don't know if you watched David's (solid bricks) insider tour video, but in that video they have an interview with the designers and the designers said Captain Rex doesn't have have a waist cape because they want to make clone troopers "match" in design, however commander Cody gets the right color visor and fox doesn't, commander Cody gets a grey torso and captain vaughn doesn't.

[@legoclonetrooper4197]

Also 501st and 187th clone troopers don't have helmet holes when they don't need them and newer clones do have helmet warts

[@dan20kim]

3:50 I believe he was talking about the dark trooper hall way scene set, not the helmet. It’s currently $22 on Amazon.

[@gulfcoast4895]

Also 22 on target

[@umodcuzimgod4229]

Ask M&R: Do you insure your Lego collection? I know a lot of people tend to insure large collections for their particular hobby and it's something I've also thought about doing as the value of my collection between sets and minifigures is worth quite a bit.

[@colinhicks2315]

i was thinking about this too. Like God forbid anything were to happen how do you compinsate for all the value lost?

[@CT-LEGO-5555]

Hey! If you are still thinking about parting the Yoda Fountain, I found someone on Ebay selling parted out copies for $80 USD. You'd have to buy the legs for Yoda. I just hope you find this comment and if you do I'm happy to help the channel! I've been watching your videos for as long as I can remember. Since I'm already here: Ask MandR: Why won't Lego let people submit Ideas for Ferris Bueller's Day Off or Uncharted. I was going to submit one for each since they're two of my favourite movies.

[@printcloud_y]

Askm&r: don't you think waistcapes should at least be duel molded legs so it goes all around the legs and they could just print the open part

[@MandRproductions]

I do not believe there is an alternative to cloth kama's. I'll explain next week if I remember to pick this one!

[@aeway_]

That'd make the white printing on dark top of the legs pretty bad, so not really a good alternative

[@kingdareth09]

Time to get the paper, scissors, markers, and your LEGO phase 2 fox

[@Bobmaluga195]

Ask mandr : please tell us

[@TheFirstCurse1]

That would look horrendous and is completely inferior to cloth waistcapes.

[@OTHDogDad]

Yes!! I have many very rare sealed sets and I often part out copies to build and display them while still keeping the original sealed. Darth Maul was one. The Yoda Holocron Chamber was another.

[@MandRproductions]

Yoda set I have sealed and also bought a parted version to build lol definitely the move

[@aleksb2238]

Great video Ryan, I am loving the new shelf set up! You really stepped up your game recently, I love to see the improvement.

[@franciscono1]

Ask MandR: do you think Lego will ever come out with a set that would come with a variety of alien characters similar to what they did with the cantina but at a lower price point. Maybe Garsa’s sanctuary with twileks, pykes, trandoshans, and Krrsantan…

[@papadrewzki7238]

Ask MandR : rate the fantasy team: Trevor Lawrence, CMC, austin ekeler, kupp, amon ra, chris olave, tee higgins, james conner, david njoku, jaxon smith njigba. 12 person league with MMG, winner gets anything signed from his collection.

[@DragonNexus]

When I was growing up I always loved whatever space theme was happening. Loved the space cops, but I really dug the Ice Planet and Aquanauts sets back in the day. Still got them. Gotta build them back up for display some time.

[@gjbricks22]

Ask MandR: Do you think Lego will ever release an imperial/clone/sep base or a line of smaller interchangeable units that you could buy separately?

[@AtomicZombieAndroid]

Thanks for the heads up on the Throne Room being on sale. I just picked it up for my kids holiday gift.

[@BlyBricksStudios]

Ask M&R: Do you think Lego will remake Rogue 1 sets like the Tie Striker and U-Wing, as well as making new sets like the Tie Reaper and AT-ACT? Also love the videos keep it up.

[@sebmes7288]

Ask MandR: What is your preference for battle damage featured on Lego sets. Ex: the 2022 AT-TE includes stickers with blaster marks on them while the 2013 has stickers without them.

[@fritz404]

Ask MandR: Do you think LEGO will eventually make more adult oriented themes? We've been getting more "mature" things recently such as James Bond and his db5

[@ICouldntthinkofagoodname]

Ask M&R: If you had no budget, piece limit, licensing issues, etc. What would you choose to be a LEGO set?

[@creativeprop540]

1:51 Is that one sticker across 2 different Lego bricks? 🤔

[@Michael-Gaskin]

Ask MandR what would be your one weird UCS set be that probably will never be made. Mine would definitely be a turbo tank

[@presidentaiden1075]

AskMandR: every 10K sub tie fighter stack when?!?!??! It’s been like 3 years Ryan we want to see a tie fighter skyscraper!!!!

[@stephenowens5091]

3:50 dark trooper attack is $22 not dark trooper helmet

[@onceinatwice_]

Got worried we were about to miss a day of AskMandR 😭😭🙏

[@ZackMuffinMan]

I parted out a Darth Maul bust for $240 with used parts on Bricklink. Epic life hack: Don't buy the black 1/4 quarter circle pieces, they are a couple cents in other colors. I got trans dark grey and you can't even see them on the build.

[@CooperWinters]

Ask MandR : Do you think its worth starting a Lego KZbin channel in 2023? I have over 40 Lego Star Wars sets + more that i could review/make videos about, but I'm just not sure if it would be worth the effort considering how many channels there are nowadays.

[@zenbricks]

Shopping now for the Lego Black Friday deals is solid advice. Almost as solid as that gold C3PO

[@Theweeklycatch]

If you could get one Lego video game, set remade or just Brand New, what would it be? Mine personally will be the Corvis SWBF2

[@Ian91911]

Ask MandR: how’s the clone problem video going?

Ask Mandr: what camera do you recommend when first starting a KZbin channel? I know some have used there phones but I think that other cameras have better quality but cost more.

[@michaelyoung7261]

AskMnR: cleaning lego is something we all need to do eventually. What’s your process look like and do you have any customized tools?

[@Name-lw3qo]

In the Chicago area there isn’t a Lego inquisitor synth at target for more than 35 miles last I saw. I drove 15 miles for one of them but it was slightly damaged but at least it was on sale

[@NomadX7]

I would revive Galaxy Squad, I personally a couple years ago I finished the whole collection polybags and all. Very proud of it.

[@legoanimations2680]

Ask MandR: have you seen the insane GWP on the avengers tower for insiders? Why do you think Lego keeps cheaping out with the ones for big Star Wars sets?

[@hazzes2536]

[@justinmitchell8802]

Ask MandR; I had been away from the Lego brand for several years since I was a kid but attribute seeing the 501st Battle Pack on the shelves at target as the reason I got back into Lego collecting. Did you actually have an impact on the creation of that set? If so, thanks for having a hand in kickstarting my interest once again lol. I'm really loving your content! Keep up the great work.

Ask MandR: Do you think we'll ever get p1 clone wars sets again? Not the episode 2 clones but the first three seasons of the clone wars. I feel like there's so many cool arcs (Ryloth invasion, Geonosis invasion, The Citadel etc) we could get sets from.

[@dog_face1]
