Is the building experience more tedious than all of the windows on Avenger's tower? If someone had to choose between purchasing Barad-Dur, Rivendale, Diagon Alley, and the Avenger's Tower, which is the best choice?
@TheBrickQuest6 ай бұрын
Good question! I havnt built Diagon Alley yet so I can’t speak on that one unfortunately. The windows on the Avengers were a lot less tedious in my opinion. They are bigger pieces so they are easier than a bunch of small black pieces. I guess choosing between them though depends whether your more of a marvel, lotr or Harry Potter fan! All amazing sets and you can’t go wrong with any. My favorite was Avengers tower with a close second being Rivendell. Hope this helps!

Bought mine on the 2nd of June with the hope of getting the Fellbeast GWP and was beyond upset when I heard it sold out on day 1 and they werent prepared for that. Def hurt but the overall build has been solid. I do wish Sauron was taller and more imposing and the set being 33 inch itself has made display limiting but Ive managed. Solid review.

@TheBrickQuest6 ай бұрын
As of right now, yes! Pretty crazy prices the minifigs are selling for online. There is a good chance these prices will slowely go down over time though.
Holy hell dude, I get wanting the video to have a quicker pace but the editing on this makes it so hard to follow. Literally not a single sentence has any room to breathe. If you just gave everything like another 0.3 seconds between speaking it would improve the video tenfold. Also, there's nothing wrong with reviewing a set that belongs to source material you don't fully know about, but I'm kinda surprised you didn't get the 3-7-9-1 sticker piece is a reference to the opening prologue of the entire series, or the meat being on the menu joke.
