I love that it muffles the sound slightly as it does feel more retro. Solid set! Going to add it to my 'To Buy' (where most sets live these days).

Ahhh someone gets it, it's a RETRO radio....being almost 70 i can testify that compared with sound from an iPhone, that muffled sound is sorta spot on how a lot of old radios sounded. So good on Lego for getting that detail right 😀

Or would want to be Lego. Someone who is into retro appliances, cameras, typewriters,...radios wants a specific model and brand, preferably working or mendable. This is as if Lego released something that loooks like an AT-AT, but simply isn't and doesn't have the branding. No one would want that. Lego trains always failed, because they couldn't get the accuracy or branding needed to fit the appeal to trainspotters. And the few actual branded trains went well, but never had the track system

@@Matt..Snah I'm into retro appliances and love all these lego versions for what they are. They're not really there to replace the real ones but more for display alongside them!

To be fair, 900 piece for $100 is a lot better than I would have expected. I was thinking it was going to be $110-120 because of the sound brick. Also, the technical aspect of the build for how small it is impressive. So a $100 dollar price point is a fair value. Definitely a better value when it’s on sale for fifteen percent off.

I see your point, but a good amount of pieces are the 1x2 grill pieces.

Okay but I need a full version of the Everything is Awesome instrumental

I definitely like the muffled sound more. Especially as someone who doesn't enjoy music cranked to the max. But that's just me!

That sound brick in a Star Wars set…. I see potential

I really wasn't planning on getting this set but that sound brick with the instrumental version of Everything is Awesome is making me want it

Would look good next to the roller skate 3-1 set

Yep, cool design. So much detail ! 📻

the radio plays everything is awesome

Going to play Welcome To Nightvale through this.

The song is called Cinematic by Gamma Skies.

Looks epic great detail quite clever with sound brick awesome review 👍

I look at Lego in 2 categories: builders vs non-builders who are here for the aesthetics. I am in the latter category and love the sound. It sounds retro, so it fits into the theme- honestly, the fact that there's sound at all is awesome! On my birthday wishlist. And yes, I plan on getting the typewriter as well

Thank you for the sound comparison :)

I think this is a decent set for the price. The sound brick didn’t impact the price as much as the sorting hat was.

2:56 everything is awesome

all I wanted was everyday is awesome to play, and I was not disappointed hahahaha

This is the first time I’ve seen the paper bags, been asking for that for years this is awesome!

I actually love this set. The sound brick makes its 10/10

I’m definitely adding this to the get list!!!

Great set Sound brick makes it better, phone integration is great

Thank you for the video.

Just watched the Barad Dur review and saw everyone got in your case for not knowing the tree was from Gondor. But no one on here is giving you props for knowing a worm gear! Well done!!

Everything is awesome.

Ty again for the crumb on the last steam 🎉

I think they made this a a perfect time especially with the fallout tv show release you get a little bit of that retro magic in a really nice set. I usually only get Lego Star Wars but this will be a fine addition to my collection

Very cool designed set! Looks good, as well! The only thing I would change is colour theme.

i adore this set

Really great review. Thanks for your continued honesty. Will also wait for a sale. I wonder if the smartphone’s music muffled sound is to make it sound “mono” by design? Not sure.

Love the vids

I’d probably buy this set I like the inclusion of the phone holder. I wanna see a review of the tuxedo cat next!

Muffled sound is lore accurate and probs to lego for trying to stay true for all the radio fans out there.

Gives some heavy Fallout vibes. Imagine playing “Maybe” on that thing…

I've got an urge to buy this and put a smart speaker or Bluetooth speaker in it.

Strong Fallout vibes :)

When its muffled it sounds old and retro which is fitting

For that price, It would have been cool if they made it a working radio.......... And and writing this I realize it kinda sorta is, and now I must have it 😂.... And it keeps getting better!! Smartphone..geez! Gotta have it!!

To be fair though it’s still way better value than the HP Sorting Hat. If you want a sound brick this is the one from those two choices I feel.

Awesome 😎

In your home or in your car. You are never really far from L-E-G-O Radio.

this is such a fun idea tho, might have to pick it up

it would be cheaper to buy the actual radio its based off

Would’ve been cool to collaborate with Bethesda and create a Fallout inspired radio.

The set doesnt come with paper bags. Lego specially sent you version with paper bags as a LAN member so it looks good for them. Paper bags are not a thing yet in North America so this is not indicative of what the on shelves product (In North America) will be.

You know you wanna drop that Barud-Dur review😊

I like the way you said, it's going to be a pass for you until it goes down in price....but you got this set for free.. LOL. I think it's a good set, it's a display set for someone who loves music or classic retro items and this would look great in an office or in a den. .

when you breathe air, make sure to breathe it in and then out, and then let's talk about air and all for over 6 minutes and make lots of statements and observations about that air, how one breath may be more valuable than the other and all sorts of things... what do you think about those breaths of air, is it the first or the second more refreshing... I don't know, comment your thoughts on that below....

This actually is not a new warm gear, it first appeared in Lego City 60372.

Gonna play some fallout songs with that thing.

In the past there have been sound brick’s in a few sets but it has been a minute. Actually I said that and remembered later that the Harry Potter talking hat said had one too!

Seemed like a nice set. It is a reto set so muffling the sound didn't seem like a big deal. Might have been a problem had they not thought to have a way to store a phone for more music choices

That sound brick makes the set it’s so cool.

Sold. The price is justified due to no stickers. I believe it sounds like an old radio. Just need to change the color and fix the antenna.

5:06 Okay, first off, how dare you Secondly…… yeh

I prefer the sound with it in the set!

There 100% IS a current Lego Ideas "Vintage Radio" set by user dimexart, down to the ability to insert a phone to play music. His design is very close to 10,000 votes and now has exactly 0 chance of getting selected. I have to assume it was simply a parallel idea by Lego and dimexart, and not a stolen concept, but nevertheless the two are heavily similar. Lego has every right to do whatever they want with submissions to their platform in the first place, but I can't help feeling bad for dimexart and the mountain of work he's put in - 10k votes is a massive undertaking when you aren't already an influencer or online creator.

A light seagreen color….. I’d say ‘turquoise ‘

I wish it actually worked

i would have bought this if they had songs from lego island on it

I love the small size, as someone in a small apartment without a lot of display space this is perfect.

Sound brick needs a USB-C interface.

Is there room in the back to allow the cable for a smart speaker to go in to it?

Not a fan, personally, but then I worked 15 years for a radio manufacturer... Interesting mechanics though.

Bizzare lego did this before a turntable

Bravo lego

The price is right due to,the sound brick and it plays exactly muffled as it it should be in reality ( back then) 😂

I believe this misalignment is intentional. AM channels will differ from FM channels with their expanded frequencies. I’ve noticed that with some radios growing up

He was describing the vertical misaligned of the horizontal lines on two adjacent tiles - the printing on the large tile did not aligh with the tile to its right. You are right that AM and FM tuning marks don't align and the reasons for that, but that wasn't the issue here.

@@GodmanchesterGoblinoh! I didn’t notice that lol. Good eye!

Come on LEGO, including actual radio parts and a cheap speaker in this would have cost at most 5 dollars

Can you start giving two recommendations at the end? One if price is a factor, and one if it isn't? For some of us, price doesn't matter. We just want to know if it's cool and worth buying. For others, I know price is super important. On this one for example, you could give your original review and say you don't recommend, but then say "If you're not concerned by price then..." Is it worth getting if price isn't an issue? My issue isn't price, it's display space lol.

They couldn't just make it a funcstional AM/FM radio?

Ideas/icons sets will always be up there. But this one is WAY reasonable to me. Guaranteed in the cart asap. And let's be honest my guys, we're LEGO collectors, we know and are willing to pay XD

i mean, if you put the phone speaker near the opening on the front you would have better sound

Did you try rotating your phone 180 Deg? Just wondered if the speaker orientation might make a difference on the muffling

Could it also fit a small baseball radio inside it?

Will someone make a mod so it can become a real radio?

My childhood friends, sisters husband designed this set. this sounds like a joke of some kind but it's actually not lol

Can you get rid of the auto-generated chapters please?

Put a Bluetooth speaker in there

Sound brick should come with bluetooth

What song is it tune on I phone

Wish it had a tuner to receive radio stations…….

I really dont see the point in lego sets as expensive as what they are copying. It's a bit fun but generally objects are not fun personnaly, especially for a plastic counterpart.

This relies on a gimmick which while interesting, just doesn't really work that great and you're only gonna use it once and not touch it again until you show it off to someone who's visiting you, which dimishes the value of this greatly. It also costs almost as much as, or the same as a lot of sets that granted don't have the gimmick of the Retro Radio but they are a lot larger or more interesting and drastically better value. This is £90 in the UK, which is the same as the massive Technic VTOL Heavy Cargo Spaceship, The Lunar New Year Family Reunion Celebration, the 25th Anniversary version R2-D2, and the recently announced and interesting Tuxedo Cat. I'd rather take any of those over the radio.

​@@Legomyegoorj this is such a weird point with these sets though (like typewriter, pac-man arcade etc). No one in their right mind who is buying this expects to get a radio comparable to the real thing in terms of functionality. This is for lego fans who want a cool-looking lego model of a piece of retro history.

@Legomyegoorj

I guess that makes sense but then why even include the soundbrick? I’ll be the first to say that the build experience is one of the three top reasons I love Lego as a hobby, but Lego is asking for $100 for a set mostly because of that weird sound brick, that mimicked the feel of a radio without any of the functionality actual, proper functionality. As OP points out, this could have been designed to be smaller, and without the sound brick, or IMHO as essentially a facade (completely open back) so you can hide a real Bluetooth speaker behind it. That could have been MUCH cheaper and combined with the cost of the Bluetooth speaker if that matters to you, a better deal. I’m not saying this is a bad set, I just think it’s a tall ask, value-wise, even considering the totality of LEGO’s increasingly-difficult tall asks.
