[@legokid2022]

I honestly miss the old style of lego custom minifigures i love that cowl

[@Inputbrick]

same! and thank you!

[@jpkproductions27]

I miss the old style of Lego KZbin as well, but mostly the late 2010s era for me. Something changed around 2021 and lots of these new KZbinrs feel like clout chasing npcs with the exact same hyper editing styles. It felt more real and personal before, and you did a great job with this video!

[@Inputbrick]

I definitely agree, I’ll try and make more videos like this!

[@user-fw7gt7sy7q]

Yo my man why did you delete all your vids?

[@jpkproductions27]

@@user-fw7gt7sy7qmore people finding out about it at school as I got older and losing much of my interest in the channel/lego star wars.

[@Rhyciz]

Seriously tho. They all feel like they have to make an edit every 2 milliseconds to keep the viewer’s attention. Mostly meme or Lego Star Wars sound effects and I freaking hate it.

[@Greatman460]

Honestly I like plain simple custom mini figs that aren’t super detailed but that look official

[@Inputbrick]

same! i hope these fit into that area!

[@Mystery-pd6jc]

That cowl for Batman is PERFECT and is PRECISELY what I want from a The Batman Lego cowl. I really pray Lego makes The Batman 2 sets and we get an accurate cowl because the cowl is the best part of Batman's design in that movie in my opinion so it was super disappointing when they used a generic cowl.

[@RandomRamblings86]

I really love how your prints imitate Lego's style. It makes them feel so much more real

[@Inputbrick]

That’s what I try to go for! Thank you!

[@jinkysarts]

Man that intro brought back some memories. I miss these types of videos

[@Inputbrick]

We all need to bring them back!

[@gibby2619]

I remember being in 6th grade and custom Lego minifigures were the hype! I miss watching guys like dr. Octonactapus, I miss old mgf and many more. Thank you Input for taking us back in time for a bit🤍

[@Inputbrick]

My pleasure! Glad you liked the video! I’ll have to make more!

[@mgyflacco]

I appreciate this style of minifigures, I appreciate the 3D figures but prefer more Lego accurate ones like these, very well done

[@Inputbrick]

i spent a long time working to nail that style!

[@mr.crowjo_3933]

​@Inputbrick you nailed it

[@IjustFelix]

Same I miss those og lego videos

[@Inputbrick]

we need more like them lol

[@joshuamorrison9670]

19:21 Yes. Absolutely. Without a SINGLE doubt, that would be sick

[@Inputbrick]

alright ill make it happen!

[@apeshitforcapeshit9189]

I used to be a part of lego youtube when I was in high school, thanks for the throwback!

[@Inputbrick]

You should get back to it!

[@archerstudios1845]

I really appreciate the aesthetic for the video, it definitely captures the essence of the old lego videos. And pleace make a tutorial for the stud cuffs thing please

[@Inputbrick]

thank you! and ill film that soon!

[@stylizedsylveon]

I really miss the old lego video style, very nostalgic for me

[@Inputbrick]

I’ll make some more!

[@Rank17]

The riddler genuinely looks like something lego would make great job

[@Inputbrick]

Ah that’s exactly what I was going for! This is actually the second version and the first one was too over detailed

[@connornyhan]

I miss this era! Love the vibes of this video!!!!

[@lucasvincent3021]

That’s honestly the best movie batsuit I’ve ever seen in Lego. Pattinson’s Batman suit is my favorite in terms of live action suits

[@Inputbrick]

Same, I hope they keep it the same for the next movie

[@noodlehair3048]

Dude, that's one of the best the Batman Minifigure. It's not overdesign but not bad as the official .

[@Inputbrick]

Ah thank you!

[@YellowBear592]

The capes and pieces like that are what I would call "customs" most "knock offs" are incredible for custom molded pieces

[@joshuamorrison9670]

Blue batman. New, 2014 batman

[@Inputbrick]

its him

[@falafelwaffle6140]

Reminds me of the moose figs. thanks for this man, truly.

[@Inputbrick]

The goat, and no, thank you!

[@Greenandmean]

Bro i swear i literally got flashbanged from those old video clips like......damn i havent seen a video like that in forever

[@Inputbrick]

Nostalgia is one hell of a drug

[@_ChoccooMilkk_]

Dude I love these videos and I love Batman! I’d love to see you make more of these types of videos!

[@madhousestudios5214]

Loved every design. The detail is imaging! Looking forward to seeing more in the future.

[@RedLeaderSarge]

Absolutely loved this video! This took me back to the lego videos I watched when I was a kid. I would love to see another video like this but about all the halo figs you have and have made.

[@Inputbrick]

Alright I was wondering if anyone would want that! I’ll be sure to make that too!

[@sinestrocorpmax7948]

Every one of these minifigs look amazing! That cowel design is so clean and nice, and every minifig looks good and accurate. 10/10

[@Inputbrick]

Ah thank you!

[@Chaden]

This video hits different. All of those videos you showed in the intro were my favorites when I was younger, glad to see this format around today.

[@casamuslegocustomminifigures]

Thanks for making this! It brought back some fond memories.

[@Inputbrick]

Haha no problem! I hope to make more soon!

[@CrypticStudiosYT]

the rawness of the old videos bring back so many memories,

[@Inputbrick]

Making more soon!

[@noahherrera5214]

Lovely video James! Really love all of your Batman stuff

[@Inputbrick]

Thanks!

[@janvanderhave6736]

god. i remember those days. I loved watching MichaelMGF customs. I would also try to recreate the minifigures by customminifigures if anyone remembers that channel. He would make these marvel stopmotion videos predating the marvel figures that came out in 2012. i tried my hand at recreating his wolverine minifigure because he'd sometimes make tutorials so people watching could DIY. simpler times :-)

[@Inputbrick]

YES i remember! all of those channels were awesome! and yes, much simpler times lolll

[@clifisboring]

I missed old style Lego KZbin, thanks for making this, keep it up! Also I love your painting style

[@Inputbrick]

Thank you!!

[@chrissoprano5360]

Great work all around. The Masked Riddler is my favorite.

[@Inputbrick]

Love that one! And thanks!

[@dominicreilly8331]

I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this video, please make more🙏🙏

[@Inputbrick]

Aw thanks! I will!

[@Achoko12345]

glad to have been a part of old lego youtube and minifig stop-mos

[@skeletorthepublicnuisance6707]

I love this style of lego video! I’ve been thinking about getting back into custom lego mini figures recently, and this video is really making me want to. Some people still make these kinds of videos thankfully, but they’re overshadowed by the tiktokified channels about buying way too much stuff using their KZbin money

[@sabretoothstudios9142]

I forgot how much I enjoy this older style of video

[@Clankerphobe]

I yearn for the old days of Lego KZbin. Also great to see you included some Lego Halo in here, I spent so much time watching Halo stuff on the old KZbin. I actually ordered a Sand Green Spartan armour from Brick Forge once they made it available again since I missed out on it when I was younger. I did however get the old gunmetal ODST armour! Left a sub for more old school youtube content:)

[@hollyjolly___]

need more custom Lego content, at least with KZbin I remember the old days. Also the Batman figs are great

[@alexiscruz272]

This was such a refreshing video to see. I got flashbacks to watching old MGF custom showcases. Keep it up man! I’d love to see more videos like these. Even if the figures are from different themes and such it would be nice to see you go through your thought process!

[@alexiscruz272]

PS: I bought some of your daredevil cowls because I loved the designs! I was wondering though if you mixed your own paint for the dark red or if you found a perfect match? I would love to know thanks!

[@_pvp_gus_]

I remember how my first approach to these kind of videos was back in 2013 with the mgfcustom video of his iron legion from iron man 3. This really gives me that nostalgia watching those when I was a kid

[@an4rchy72]

OG lego youtube was awesome MooseFigs And Michael MGF will always be the goats of lego youtube

[@keatonmarshallhowe5487]

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME vid bro! Me and my roommate watched this vid and we loved it. You have an awesome personality and the video was great quality and fun to watch! Keep up the good work

[@Inputbrick]

Omg this was so kind! Thank you!

[@itzspookyz]

i truly miss old lego youtube, fucas101, moosefigs, the nostalgia (': you killed it man! just placed my first order from you and super excited to get it!

[@derpazoid3]

Dude that cowl design is actually so awesome. Thank for showing off your collection!!

[@Inputbrick]

Ah thank you!

[@zacciswacc594]

I love that you make them look like actual lego, it feels very authentic. I think they’d all look good in any moc :D

[@Inputbrick]

Thank you!

[@sort-of-amusing8891]

I love how committed you are to the Lego style and aesthetic! And I’d love to see the TMNT vid

[@Inputbrick]

Ah thank you!

[@jaxjams7921]

this vids so nostalgic man, wish this stuck around because customs have gotten so good but it’s not shown off on youtube enough

[@Inputbrick]

for sure, more ppl need to upload vids!

[@Ahzuv2]

i 100% understand what you mean by old lego youtube these kinds of videos are what inspired me to make customs as a kid

[@criticalboot2567]

i love the use of the scott ninjago hat/hood part for the guy at 16:05

[@Inputbrick]

nice catch! i love those hoods!

[@laughy966]

Ty! Glad you liked it!

[@champoopapi]

love the figures, definitely miss the nostalgia of old lego youtube. hell youtube as a whole. need the stud-cuff tutorial asap !!!!

[@Inputbrick]

The tutorial is up now!!

[@freakyslimedude5266]

this reminds me of those old lego batman stop motion animation videos, really nostolgic.

[@Inputbrick]

Yess those were the BEST

[@shedtea]

great video man! i mainly see your stuff on insta but I loved this video:) I really miss old lego youtube (like moosefigs) honestly with all the spider-man customs i’ve made this video makes me wanna try doing something like this for those figures once I’m done with my verse although i wanna say i have around 90 figs atm (both rogues and personal characters). Also definitely do that tutorial for the glove tops, the tmnt video, & your other figs! i’d definitely be most excited for marvel and any spider-man figs

[@Inputbrick]

You should definitely make a video!!

[@Ustim2011]

I enjoy this type! I still watch videos in this style such as Minisuperherostoday's custom showcases.

[@Inputbrick]

He is the goat!!

[@Starman29]

yo yes, absolutely; a showcase on your custom tmnt figures would be awesome!

[@user-qz7nd8iz9d]

That Cowl Is incredible and is so acruate to Batmans in movie cowl

[@Marchew1200]

Penguin painted faces look like they are printed. You did an amazing job!

Thank you!!

Ngl this video really brought me back to like 2013 when i would lie watching youtube on my tablet Good times, good times

[@Ratalada209]

[@Inputbrick]

Sweet! I’ll definitely make a showcase for them!

[@LegitDiamonds]

I love these type of videos. Definitely will have this as a constant rewatch. Amazing figures. We need the tmnt vid 😞

ah thats so kind haha, ill try and make more! tmnt next?

The goat

[@lillebjrk7295]

These are all amazing! Personally I prefer printing and parts that look more like lego could've made them, as opposed to looking super custom and detailed, and I think you balanced that perfectly :)

[@Inputbrick]

Ah thank you! I definitely tried to stick to legos aesthetic!

[@skidwardshlongington8025]

ive been thinking about making old fashion Minecraft youtube videos like yours

[@liarsmice]

these are really cool and youre super good at matching lego's style ! also as I understand it seems like youve been trying different things lately and I realised I've only ever seen a few My Hero Academia customs out there and you could probably kill that, just as a suggestion if you want !

[@Inputbrick]

Maybe I should do a run of anime figures! A lot of people have asked for stuff like that!

[@connornyhan]

Really loved the Riddler and Batman figs! I love that all the custom pieces and paint jobs look like they follow the LEGO aesthetic. I’d love to see your TMNT figs! Do you have STLs available for your custom prints?

[@deepseacocoon]

These are amazing

[@Inputbrick]

Thank you!

I’m working on one now! And yes I’ll try to make a dye tutorial

[@josephmustang4714]

bro this customs are better than the ultra detail 3d prints

[@Inputbrick]

ah thank you!

I grew up on this style I love it also you should do the TMNT

Dude yes! Make a TMNT video, if you already haven’t.

Man, that Joker figure is PEAK. Also, the legs and hair on the Selina figure are great. What figure are those legs from (the black skirt), and what brand of paint did you use for that amazing Chrome Red look?

[@Inputbrick]

thanks! the paint is a metallic Tamaya red and the legs are from scarlet witch i believe

[@Epikruss]

Are you gonna restock your Doom sword? I want to buy one along with the armor pieces. Sick video btw, would be down for more like this.

[@Inputbrick]

enough people have asked that i think i might yes, if you are in the discord there is a channel for restock suggestions!

[@johndo5336]

What paint color did u use for Selina that matches Lego medium nougat or mix of colors (also maybe restock the Bruce hair print maybe please and or make a after a night out hair print as well that would be amazing ur prints go so hard and have been what motivating me to make custom figures even if they’re only the Batman related (also going to be using this as inspo for my the Batman figs))

Well I for one prefer these to the more flashy tik tok style ones so keep them up!
