The galactic marines could be renamed to “Galactic trooper” or something (simply cut off the “Marine”). OR they could just call them “21th Nova Corps” (They are from that “Legion” so it’d make sense)

Seriously, I like that they are doing so many Prequel Sets but they should consider to make some Seperatists sets instead of mostly Republic sets. It’s kind of a luxury problem now but I have more clones than droids lol. Back in 2014, I just had like 7 clones and 20 droids.

I feel Lego Teens pain. Way back in middle school I had told my friends I was planning on asking for a Lego SW set for Christmas and they laughed at me. From that point on, all through the rest of middle and High School, i Kept quite and was ashamed of my like for Lego. It wasn't until college that I really started coming out of my shell and even started posting pics of my military MOCs. Thankfully, everybody in my social circle has been very supportive :) I hope the same for Lego teen.
Man; one of your best videos to date: 1. Galaxy explorer in background. ( respect for the older viewers) 2. Equitable Market Hypothesis ( business level theory in your video! Wow 3. Cracks / jokes, on the buildable figures - (funny bit with vid clips to back up your thoughts) 4. Answering spot on Lego mini fig black market. ( When I went to Europe this summer, I met a collector who had connection with factory workers , who yes, You said it, are moving product sideways. ( There’s no bootleg mnfctr for those mini figs. Just rogue employees in low paying factories). Most likely a problem that LEGO is aware of, but isn’t causing them to loose hundreds of thousands of dollars......so they don’t even go after it. 5. You mentioned ATL BRICK CO ....went there had a blast selling my 99 sealed collection of OG sets to Chris and company. I’ll include the link ( OG Star Wars HAAAUUULLL (5-11-21) google that and watch.... Man you sure hit the Mark on this video! Keep up the great content!
Ask MandR: So, Lego changed the Battle Droid blaster color from black to like a shiny gun metal color. It first appeared in the 2020 AAT and the odd thing is that they have been keeping it pretty consistent since then. Except for in the 501st battle pack, the Battle Droids now wield dark shiny blasters. Long story short; Lego never makes changes like this, as it is usually one size, piece, or color fits all kinda thing. Why do you think change happened? Kinda random, but I am curious.
Star Wars figure pieces have been making their way out of factory a long time. I remember 10+ years back when tons of Zam Wesell and Tusken Raider head/torso combos hit the market. You can still buy those otherwise vintage and rare figure parts for cheap. As well as stuff like Jango rocket pack / helmet blanks (which used to be super common and $5 a piece on BL), but those have largely been bought out by customizers and people making mandos.
Love how the 501st is supposedly retiring at the end of the year, but in Australia we haven’t seen it on shelves since early 2021

I really want a new gunship especially now that we got an at-te, however the prices of the new sets have been revealed and the most expensive set is only 100$, and i doubt a gunship would that cheap, if we get a new gunship its definitely going to be in the 130-160$ range, no doubt we are getting a new one soon tho
What’s your most wanted non-clone battle pack? Personally, I’d love to see some purge troopers especially since they showed up in kenobi.

As an aged fan of lego, I’m enjoying your forays into explaining “lego investing.” These explanations are sorely needed in the lego community. Especially for younger collectors. I’m a data driven guy, so your appreciation of graphs and raw data is appreciated. In the late 1980’s and on through the 1990’s, baseball cards became the collectible rage with kids. With values based on pristine cards from 20 or thirty years earlier…Kids and then adults began swooping in and preserving cards in pristine condition. Card manufacturers responded in kind by just producing more cards and raising prices. Do you see a trend here with Lego being another nostalgic brand from a later generation? Check out the peak values of 1987 Topps and Donruss sets. And map against what might be a glut in lego production meant to meet “collector” or “investor” demand. Your battle pack was one of the best lego sets in history. And will turn out to be the the best “army building” sets in history. Because it was overbought. Like a Griffey Rookie card. Keep up the good work.
I would LOVE a Tusken Raider bust set. That and a Snowtrooper helmet are some of my most wanted.

Yeah Cloud City Boba was stable at ~£200 for over a decade. Suddenly people are trying to sell him (and some crazy people are actually buying him) at over £1000.

I think basing a gunship around the formula of the ATTE would be great. Rex, 3x 332nd troopers, 2x red clone pilots, and 2x super commando mandalorians.
