People are saying it's cheaper to buy a real football table than the LEGO one. If you're buying real Ferraris instead of the LEGO ones I'll fully support your claims 💪 Edit: 7/12/2022 These remarks have been getting mixed reactions and I totally get it, the argument is super silly to begin with and I'll be the first to admit it. But to put more words into this, I just feel the comparison between this set and a real table shouldn't be made. You're buying into a completely different experience, it allows for customisation, it has tons of minifigures (if you care about that) you can build it yourself and you can use the pieces for a lot more stuff than just playing the game if you take the set apart. It's the same with the Globe, the Typewriter the NES, the flower sets and probably others. If you wanted the real objects you could always get them for a LOT cheaper, but you get the LEGO versions because you want something else entirely right? So how can you compare two objects that don't fulfil the same purpose? I'm not defending the set in any way whatsoever. Like I mentioned in the video there's things I like about it and there's things I don't like about it. If you want amazing LEGO sets there's plenty out there, I'm making a video about it as we speak. But at the same time there's been far worse releases than the table football which I made sure to make perfectly clear in my reviews for those of you claiming I'm totally biased and love everything LEGO puts out.

As a football fan, I do want to have this set, but at this price point it is reasonable to expect 22 outfield players rather than 10. I have no problem with them including extra players and parts; in fact they add to the appeal to the set, but they need to be stored in a better way than having a separate section that has to take up an extra chunk of display space. At this point, a juicy discount is needed to push me over the fence.

The weird part about the 5v5 teams is that indoor is usually 6v6. So it isn't a copy of either major version of the sport.

It looks like a fun set but the price and the flaw make it a bit unappealing. If they would have left out the additional figures and the stage it could be cheaper.

Extra players could have been smaller packs or sets. Like a street/indoor game set with figures and some small goals. Especially for kids with an ear aid and/or vitiligo that might be priced out at the full set price. I've had "normal" small table games like this and they get used for a bit before being forgotten. At least the build sounds nice.

I was okay with LEGO making the model smaller to meet standards. I don't like that they kept the extremely high price and then added a stand and a ton of minifigure parts in order to justify the price. Especially when the typical table football game are made with monochrome figures. LEGO should have just included the number of figures needed in all red/blue color and done away with the stand and added minifigure parts, and reduced the price.

Uff. I am not a fan of sets that prioritize minifigs and accessories over the build. Not a bad set for novelties sake, but seems like a really poor value if what you want is a Lego foosball table.

Such a niche product, I can't imagine there's a whole lot of table football fans who are also massive lego fans willing to spend more than the cost of an actual table for this

While I'm not a fan of football, I think I might buy this and replace all the Minifigures with the ones from my Lego Batman sets.

That axel element will mostly likely the first thing to break, I think there might be enough room to the double axel rubber element to prevent the score elements from sliding if you really wanted to stop the movement.

As someone who used to play a lot of Table Football and still has a Tornado brand table in their house, I was very excited when I heard about this set. I'm a little disappointed in the small size compared to the original idea, but I totally understand the reason for that limitation. That being said, this is too expensive for what you get. If I ever find it available for a really good sale price then I might pick it up just for display purposes.

The LEGO Ideas are kind of amazing aren't they? Every time I see a new one that pokes my interest I always have to think: 'At this point I'm starting to ask myself, is there anything you can't build in LEGO anymore?'. And to be fair. I like that thought :D. Love your reviews Tiago, I'm not really doing anything with LEGO anymore, but it's fun keeping up with what is out there nowadays. Maybe when my son is a bit older I can play with this great toy once again.

The uniforms make me think Star Trek. Maybe this might end up inspiring a whole Lego Trek fan made effort. Selling the extra figures might work out for people who want to get some cash back. Almost like a rebate.

Just curious if a technic tube element could be used for the counter with the axle part which would still slide easier but have some resistance? Seems like a great set when this goes on sale next year! 20% = $50 off :)

Im still asking myself, who is actually gonna buy this? It cant be displayed, it can be played but who has 250$ and buys this instead of something much cooler?

The set's OK - but as a football fan, I would have bought it purely for the minifigures if the price was better... and really think they should printed the legs as shorts - i.e., skin showing at the knees. As it is, i'll just pick up the torsos and some heads on Bricklink or Brickowl

Great review, thanks. Loved your match with Emmasaurus in Paris :)

My main concern for this set was durability and play features. Years ago I asked for Lego Soccer sets for either my Birthday or Christmas and got the Mega Block Foosball table instead. It did have the full set of players, but you couldn't twist the knobs without pulling up the bricks. It was terrible. The scoreboard seems like it would be better by using flag on a pole. When you get a goal, flip a flag down or up. The choice they went with is bizarre. Anyone that's worked with Technic enough should know those elements are used for fixed positions, not sliding elements. Even a kid that grew up building Bionicle figures could've told them that. I'll have to hesitate at that price point, as I still want Bowser, and I can't get both.

3:20 instead of a technic axle they could have used a long Bar/Wand/Lightsaber-Blade piece. it will stay in place and will be easier to slide

I hope that lego uses these (I’m pretty sure) new face prints of the vitiligo and ear piece head prints, preferably in a more affordable manner, I feel like it’s so cool and

The action feature part could be replicated even over 20 years ago. It wouldn’t look pretty, but it could have been fun. A street base plate with some technic and basic bricks might do the trick. Kicking around marble or small bouncy balls. Oh and if I were thinking ahead something could have been rigged up to decrease stress on Lego pieces. Teflon tape (plumbing tape) could be wrapped around the axles. Some kind of non Lego rubber thread through a Tecnic pin hole for shock absorption. Wish I had that idea back in the day.

Lego ideas are the best Lego sets that have ever came out. Thanks for reviewing this one!

I find it WAY too expensive

Great review 🎉

Bro I'm sorry but it's to overpriced and I have to pay my rent first💀

While I would not have been disappointed with a cheaper price point for only 10 minifigs, I see the extra as more than added value for me. This isn't a set I'm jumping to get right away but I will pick it up at some point to have a bunch of unique minifigs in my modular city.

Cheaper to get an actual table football layout than the Lego set equivalent. The price was overbloated with all the unnecessary minifigures. I would be quite surprised if this set sells well at all.

I really like that LEGO is working on wider representation in minifigures but I don't like how some of these parts are only available through this set at the moment. Why does someone need to buy a $250 set in order to make a figure with vitiligo? Will people still be able to do that once this set gets discontinued? I think LEGO should make more of these elements available in Pick a Brick or include a wider variety of heads/hairpieces with more sets. Right now they're putting all the new parts in one set that becomes more inaccessible due to the increased price.

I can understand why they had to scale it down, and have no real issue with that. Sure, the problems they had could surely have been solved with some new parts and materials (other brands can do CFRP axles, why can't Lego), but that would only have added to the price. I do have an issue that to meet the predefined price they thrown in so much unnecessary stuff. I sure see the value for minifig collectors, but then wouldn't it have been much better as two separate sets? And so many figs, but somehow they don't really look like football players at all, or are they all playing in their track suits?

That would be really nice

My intuition for moving those score markers is to put my thumb on top and my forefinger on the side I wish to move it to, then apply a torque to the ball to counteract bending the axle element as I try to slide it. I don't actually know if that would work, but it didn't look like you were using the described technique, so maybe your complaint is moot.

Of course you became enthusiastic about this set once you got one for free and and a nice trip as a bonus.

Seems to me to be a sneaky and expensive way to sell the rare/new minifigs. The table is too small to play on regularly with the poor score markers, weird flag corners and sections showing the studs looking as though they should have been covered up. I think it could have been better and at the price, should've been.

They should have added a little hole on the walls in the middle where you could drop the ball into the arena with like a real table has.

I had the old Lego soccer table as a kid

It’s too small. I saw and played it. Certainly not for adults

There’s one set like 20 years ago. A literally football pitch but the field and game place is like real match. Idk how to really explain.

I figured The extra mini figures are for using your own bricks to build a larger table without needing to buy a second table.

Back in the olden times they actually did a foot ball and basketball theme which allowed kids and big kids to play the games

Hey guys, food for thought, if you're seeing this comment at the time of me writing it, this set is currently on sale for 175 off. A steal honestly

Regarding the extra minifigures, perhaps it was particularly important for the designer(s) to depict Football as a global, highly diverse culture, and felt strongly enough about it that Lego was okay inflating the cost of the set to preserve that aspect. The complaints about it seem to forget that the design of these sets have multiple competing considerations and there's no one answer to balancing them. Regarding the score-keeping element. I suspect they used the difficult-to-move part for display purposes. It's still technically movable, but it can be stable if the user wants it to be, compared to the alternate piece you recommended. I agree with your argument, but I'm guessing that was their reason. The one thing that I wished it had was a hole or ramp or something to drop the ball onto the field. One thing people always try to do on real foosball tables is sneakily influence the way the ball enters the field, so it's odd that a set with so much play utility ignored that aspect.

This set is again another example of why I'm a little bit disappointed about LEGO IDEAS in the last time. The actual IDEAS set was far bigger and I would have not been interested in buying this, If I had voted for a pretty much different set. Same thing with the Motorised Lighthouse - different scale and size. I understand that LEGO needs to rework the sets, but those two sets have been reworked way too much in my opinion and therefore are no longer interesting for the group of people who picked it on the IDEAS website. The next problem with IDEAS - too many big and expensive sets are being released and the small ones are only given away as GWP, instead of really making them easily available for the fans. Personally, the Table Football is one of the least interesting sets released this year :/

If the set was cheaper, it would be a lot better

It's cool to justify this as a mini-table with lots of useful building parts if taken apart, but with thinking of LEGO in this way, its easy to justify it as "a set and lots of parts" but it should be "a set OR lots of parts". What would you really do with the $250 or so amount of parts with 20 minifigs in football clothes? It's cool if it stays as a table, but if you really wanted a mini football table, you can buy proper ones much more affordably, and the spare LEGO pieces here for MOCs seem much too expensive to buy just for parts.

Lego should just bring back the old football pitch, instead of this. Overpriced, in terms of looks its pretty uninteresting, useless parts, I cant see the point of this.

I was going to buy this except for that awful side build that is just their to jack up the price of it.

“The old Bionicle Balls” 💀

Unless you want the minifigure pieces I really don't see any reason to spend money on this when you can get a bigger football table

I'll probably buy two or three and make a larger one over time.

Lmaoo you can get 2 whole real life mini football tables for that price

Does why in Brazil LEGO is so expensive, with an absurd disproportion with the dollar?Like 1 piece is 1 Real

More expensive than an actual full size table football 😂 hmm think ill pass

22 extra faces and hair, but only 1 extra ball??!!

As of March 2023, no longer on Amazon at all, so enough folks took the $ plunge!

When will you post the new Eiffel tower review? can't wait for it :)

Im afraid I won’t bring myself to do it. Too big, too expensive and too repetitive. I think that would probably sum up my review of it

@@TiagoCatarino Yea saw some reviews, it does look really repetitive... Would you say the titanic is an overall better experience? i really want to get a big lego model, and the eiffel does look stunning

I had the opportunity to play and it was a tragedy! After 30 seconds I had the tip of the handle in my hand. Claustrophobic pitch, no pleasure from the game, very poor set, I do not recommend.

WOW! I am so impressed with this entire review and not for the reason you might think. When the video started and we hear Lego has invited you to France to review this set, I was like “oh here we go”. In fact I almost swiped right (you get the reference) as I did not want a biased take. Instead we get an absolutely honest unapologetic review. Mr. Catarino, I have to say, just like legos’ customer service you sir are second to none. I’ve been collecting Lego’s for 25 years and watch countless videos and reviews on the bricks, and I have enjoyed yours since you left Lego. However this video has solidified you as the preeminent reviewer…💯😉
