Game with noble knights?

Why did you hit me with this Ratatouille tier nostalgia bomb?
I loved this set when I was a kid.

>>723632146 (OP)
ÁÁAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

I will never forget the radioactive glow of this spooky bastard.
Also I was more of a space theme type of guy.

>>723632550
Same, I use to love this small Lego sets

>boring!
..and ahistorical. Knights were mostly thugs and local strongmen who were elevated into low-tier nobility so they could serve as enforcers and protection collectors for local lords. If you’re playing a knight, you need to be a cussing farting oaf who shoves peasants and loots churches.

>>723632146 (OP)
what the fuck is that building even supposed to be? Medieval toilets and its toilet ghost?

>>723635014
wtf I love knights now

>>723634656
those acrctic/deep sea sets were so fucking good. the black white and green space ones were also good.

>>723632146 (OP)
Just play Dark Souls.

>>723635014
shitty knights like those could never stand up to even one ghost

>>723636291
He said he wants to play as a knight not a roly poly

for me, it was the megabloks dragons series

>>723632146 (OP)
don't care, gonna lay the dragon instead

>>723632146 (OP)
Fuck you, you've made me sad. I had all those sets as a kid. Now I long for the simpler times where I could play Lego Knights with my cousin all day.
I remember getting pic rel for my 5th birthday from my grandmother. It was my favourite set ever.

Daggerfall, one of the best playthroughs even had a cool Bavarian using a chivalrous knight called Gallant as his character.

i only had one of those rectangular lego booklets and i used to shift through it at least once per week this one was my favourite along with a cool spider

ever heard the term chivalry? probably not beause you're a cussing farting oaf.

Salt and sanctuary

Manic miners, the Rock Raiders remake, lets you make your dudes into knights, or pic related.

Don't get spooked!

My dad found this playset at a garage sale and brought it home one day
Some of the most fun I've had really

>>723640152
what the fuck

I'm still hoping someone makes some mods for lego island 1 now that the decomp is completed.

>>723636634
You now remember that there was a shitty reboot called Dragons Universe and it had a movie.

Miss this little nigga like you wouldn't believe

>>723632146 (OP)
I had a 2 or three sets from this series, but was the game actually any good? Never played it.

>>723643048
For an RTS for kids, it's really creative and ambitious. Having your leveled miners carry over from level to level was super cool, and there being so many different vehicles and buildings was great advertising for the brand and fun to mess around with.
However it's buggy as shit. Listing out all the well known bugs would actually be a multi-post effort, but the main things are
>Raiders will eventually just stop listening to you
>The game crashes all the fucking time
Thankfully, some dude remade the entire thing for free and added even more customization, a level editor, custom difficulty sliders for everything, and two extra campaigns: https://manicminers.baraklava.com/

I only recently learned that there is a secret cave you can enter in the second game, and it's a room with a bunch of developer avatars in it. Very rad.

>>723636634
As a kid I thought this was the coolest shit ever
As an adult I think it's even cooler, look at that faded gritty looking bronze and iron, it kicks ass

>>723647261
Early Bionicle had such a mysterious feel to it, unreal that a toy company was able to capture something like that

Are there modern knight sets other than a giant expensive castle?

>>723647814
It really felt like it lost that when they went to Metru Nui
I still like Metru Nei and the bonkles are good, but it definitely ended up losing a lot of that mystique

I started getting into Lego recently and I'm practically 40. I don't give a shit what anyone says, the sets are legit good even today. If Ninjago had existed when I was a kid I would have thought it was the coolest fucking thing on the planet.

>>723651834
new lego is really good quality and there's a lot of good stuff to say about it, but it's wasted on "grown up" kits and marvel/star wars instead of anything creative
the rivindell set is really impressive but at the end of the day its just another IP set that costs a fortune for "adults"
so yes, old good, because it's actually fun and for kids

>>723652895
Manchildification (and womanchildification) of toys really needs to stop. I'm sick of things that should be for kids being marketed to people in their 20s-30s and pricing out kids.

>>723652895
There's a Lego store not far from me
Having walked past it many times it just seems to be full of balding numales and their hamplanet GFs, maybe with an actual kid with their dad or whatever every now and again

>>723646536
> Ice Planet
Exploriens was the most based theme and I'm still bitter I never got the Explorien Starship.

We're going in.

Stop me from buying this

>>723638584

The podracing was cool...

>>723652802
>I started getting into Lego recently and I'm practically 40
I've only gotten back into Lego because I feel the urge to build something. Bricktoys satiate primal instincts, like bike models kits do.

>>723654290
I had the big explorien ship as a kid, that thing was GOATed albeit fragile. Still have all the pieces mixed in with the rest of my old legs in giant tubs.

I keep hoping that exploriens gets the same fanservice that classic space and blacktron got with the reimagined sets lego put out recently. We'll probably get an ice planet 2002 remake first, I guess.

>>723647394
that movie is almost 20 years old

>>723644319
It sucks that Lego doesn't make simple but cool sets like this anymore
I don't understand how children are supposed to get lego sets these days with those inflated prices

>>723652895
Not all toys are for kids. Being an adult doesn't me you have to abandon your old hobbies, which building is.

>>723654559
I don't think they are
I don't know if kids even want to play with Lego now, it just seems to be manchildren who are willing to pay 500 dollarydoos for [thing from IP they recognise]

>>723654387
why not just get an actual soundwave?
I love me some legos, but some of these sets just don't make any sense to me. You can get a more detailed and higher quality transformer toy for far less, in all likelihood. Same with that gameboy lego set that just came out. Okay so you can pay 60 bucks for a scale lego replica of the original gameboy. But you can also probably just get a REAL original gameboy for that price off ebay or somewhere. And it can actually, you know, play games.

>>723654629
Things turning into 500 dollarydoos is a big part of why they play Roblox

>>723654387
I would prefer Mazinger Z or Great Mazinger. Why hasn’t there ever been any Mazinger Lego sets?

>>723654559
>It sucks that Lego doesn't make simple but cool sets like this anymore
>I don't understand how children are supposed to get lego sets these days with those inflated prices
You go to Pick-a-Brick and buy what you need. Small sets don't sell anymore.

>>723654559
you have to buy the off brand lego now if you want your kids to have the same experience as you in 1995. fuck lego

>>723654559
Lego has basically gone all-in on catering to nostalgic adults at the expense of kids. Which is very lucrative in the short term, because you get easy money from all the disney adults buying UCS Glub Shitto's Starship(TM) for 500 bucks a pop. But in the long term I see this leading to the downfall of the company. If you only cater to 90s kids who grew up with legos, you spurn the younger generations. Which might not matter now because little Jimmy in 2025 doesn't have any money for plastic bricks anyway, but in doing so, you're losing that customer in the future when he becomes a teen or adult. The well is going to dry up. Kids growing up today won't have any nostalgia for legos in the future. Eventually Lego will go the way of Lionel trains.

I don't like where LEGO's been going for the last 25 years. Moving away from yellow minifigure people was a mistake. With each passing year they became more like Warhammer figurines. I like both, but they shouldn't be alike.

>>723655001
There any good off brand or knockoff Lego sites?

still play this with my siblings from time to time. we're all over 30 now some over 40. still just as fun as ever

>>723649368
Why is he so happy?

the only people who buy lego are manchildren

>>723632146 (OP)
Back then you could call Lego to buy entire archer and knight minifigs.

Had my dad call them during the Wild West sets, had an entire camp of Union soldiers and the Legoredo set.

It was the best present ever.

I wish I had died in an accident at age 10 and never experienced the rest of this miserable life.

>>723654780
>Small sets don't sell anymore.
of course they do, they just want to push more people to the elite sets for maximum profit. if you're buying lego at all these days you are expected to spend at LEAST $70. don't like it? buy a minifig blindbag.

>>723655361
Yea, I wish someone loved me as well.

>>723655361
>I wish I had died in an accident at age 10 and never experienced the rest of this miserable life.

>>723655364
This, a great example is how there's one (1) zelda set, a 300 dollar replcia of the great deku tree. The actual build itself is meh, but there are plenty of nintyfags who are going and buying the $300 set solely for the link+zelda minifigs. People WANT smaller zelda-themed sets with the main characters in them. But Lego isn't stupid, and they know that by only providing the expensive sets, they're coercing these people into shelling out big bucks instead.

>>723655060
>Lego has basically gone all-in on catering to nostalgic adults at the expense of kids
No they fucking haven't. Go and look at a 90's Lego catalogue and count how many pages there are. Then count how many pages the 2025 Lego catalogue has. You will see that there's three times as many, meaning there are more sets serving many different demographics than just the three groups they did in the past.

>>723655290

No they fucking don't, and as I said, you can go to Pick-a-Brick and make your own little sets.

https://www.lego.com/en-gb/pick-and-build/pick-a-brick?perPage=100&sort=name-asc

I'm sick of hearing goddamn excuses from people like you. There's more choice than ever, but you don't like that because demographics you're not a part of are being catered to.

>>723655361
this!

>>723655554
there being a million sets available at lego's site does not change what I said. In its totality, lego has gotten too expensive. They're catering toward an adult crowd. Kids are priced out of lego. They will grow up without any nostalgia for lego, so there will be no adult crowd to cater to in the coming generations.

>>723654559
>I don't understand how children are supposed to get lego sets these days with those inflated prices
The real answer is by inheriting their fathers old LEGO, which were made out of some kind of indestructible super plastic.

I remember thinking about having friends to play Brick Quest. I saw it on a forum or something, and it's basically Lego DnD.
I made tents, adventurers, character sheets, and I found everything remotely medieval or magical and set it aside.
I've still never played a game of DnD.

>>723655842
pickabrick prices are absolutely insane. Yeah you can build a set this way if you don't mind spending 8x what it would cost otherwise.

>>723655721
>doesnt change the fact that its overprices garbage
Then go and buy other brands, like the cars from Mattel's Brick Shop range, or the builds from Lumibricks who are cheaper than Lego.

Now you can either build this.

>>723655290
bullshit these are just fanboys not lego fans if star wars switched to mattel they would be buying megablox and construx instead, when i was a kid i though that franchise/license legos like star wars indiana jones were lame

Yes it does. You're just bitter and envious, making up excuses for shit you can't afford.

Will they ever bring it back? I loved this as a kid and would like to get it for my own if I can find a good enough girl before I'm too old

>>723655801
Anon show me a reasonably priced medium sized Pirates set right now. A simple task since there's "more choice than ever" and everyone ITT is completely wrong about lego pushing people towards expensive adult sets.

>>723656107
I can afford it just fine. I lament the fact that kids cannot enjoy the things that I enjoyed as a kid, because they are priced out. The fact that you're admitting there's an affordability issue with lego is demonstrating my point.

Or this.

Modern lego is still pretty good. I would have not stopped shitting my pants if I got this as a kid.

>>723656364
>go without
But you said there was more choice than ever?
Is there a current set similar to Aquazone I could buy?
So far it seems the answer to all my requests is no.

>>723647532
no joke it's all the baby boomers in the higher up positions who shit on bionicle because it's not 'real lego'
they would rather chase dying brands like star wars and marvel than support any in house themes in any meaningful capacity, because those make more profit short term instead of actually building a sustainable customer base with in house themes

Why are you completely ignoring the point everyone is making? nobody is complaining about there not being enough sets on offer, but you keep repeating this point like it's a massive own.

>>723655801
I'm sure children are looking up lego sets then filling out a cart brick by brick on lego.com

>>723656624
Oh cool there's more sets than ever, so is there anything like aquazone, or aztec, or m-tron, or rock raiders, or egypt?
No, there isn't, because it's all brandslop. They can make 10 million different brandslop kits if they want, it doesn't solve the problem people are talking about.

>>723656617
>prefers guys dressing up in fantasy costumes and gay fairy settings to airplanes

this explains why you like lego so much that you need to defend that company on 4chan of all places. and you do it for free too

>You really are braindead. There's more sets because it's all marvel and star wars and "flowers" and "boring famous building" and "the jaws boat" and shit
You're so fucking pigheaded that you haven't even processed in your head that I spelt that shit out when someone complained about modern Lego being nothing more than licensed shit. Lego caters to more demographics than the three it did before 1999. You're so fucking autistic that you can't stand demographics being catered to that you don't like. Suck it up you miserable bastard, you ain't the center of the world.

>>723656454
who the fuck cares if it's all just onions wars and marvel sloppa? there's three times more stuff than in the 90's catalogue but where is stuff that can be played with instead of being a licensed dust collector display piece? nuLego is an epitome of wasted potential and an actual disgrace

>>723656986

nope. they changed the kids and teens demographic to basedboys and women

>>723657085
This image sums you up when it comes to modern Lego.

>>723632146 (OP)
Shit, that was my first ever Lego set. That ghost was the coolest thing back then.
>>723635271
This building has a protruding axle piece at its one side and a hole for such a piece on the other side. The idea was that you could connect it with some other sets that had such a feature as well, in order to make your own fortress/castle/whatever. This particular one doesn't really work well on its own.

Does anyone use "Lego-compatible" sets from Amazon? Been thinking about buying one for my nephew, or even buying one to put together myself. Kind of worried there might be missing or broken pieces or terrible instructions.

One day this cocksucker will be mine

>>723657067
Yes but there's MORE of it so SHUT UP!

>>723657170
dino attack was a weird theme
honestly lego was weird as fuck from the late 90's to 2007ish
i know it was due to the bankruptcy scare but even still
also imao at the euros getting the lame censored version of dino attack

>>723652895
>new lego is really good quality
They use worse plastic these days that is prone to hairline cracks and they also made the walls of the bricks thinner among other things.
If you have, go and hold a 2x4 brick from like 1995 against a light source and then one from the last years. The old one is way more opaque.

>>723651046
i barely used any vehicles in the game unless required. dumped all crystals into support stations and just spammed miners since i made like 30+ designs.

>>723657205
they are actually better quality than real lego nowadays

Guys I really think we can get this guy to make the same "there's more lego sets today than there were in the 90s so all your criticisms are worthless" argument at least 100 more times before the thread dies. I think he's just going to keep trying it.

>>723657205
I got this to see how Mattel fairs against Lego and I was impressed.

>>723644832
I had this set growing up. Man I wished I kept all my stuff. Could have sold it for a ton of money on eBay.

>>723657230
>he wants the set that ruined minifigs and added fl*shies

anyone else remember the mars astronauts vs aliens lego game? It was an RTS iirc

Blacktron.

>>723646924
Why does he look like a constipated Wolverine?

>>723655290
Okay and? Like i care what some 4incel says

>>723657205
You got me looking up faux lego on amazon and this made me laugh

>>723657368
So you're just trollin, all because your complaining about modern Lego gets called out. Figures.

>>723654559
There is a maxim when it comes to toys.
>toy brands grow up with their audiences
Lego costs more because their audience grew up and wants to pay more. That's all there is.

At this point, they are too big to fail, too.

>>723657205
This looks pretty decent on picture. Wonder how it builds and looks irl.

>>723655801
>TWENTY TWO DOLLARS FIFTY to make ONE lego cone
lmao is this nigger for real? making a whole set like this would cost a fortune
>>723656107
>stop being poor
there's being poor and then there's being a retard. if you've actually used this system to build a whole set you are a fuckin RETARD

>>723657569
It's also just $37
If it were Lego it'd be $80 easy

>>723657416
Bricklink would have been your better bet. eBay's full of lowballing assholes.

>>723657476
iirc it was crystalien conflict or something like that
very ok, but single handedly responsible for peoples nostalgia for mars mission

>>723657554
And anon, remind us again why everyone's complaints about modern lego aren't valid...?

>>723655060

More like 150 bucks.

>>723657580
holy fuck

>>723657639
So true about eBay. I rarely sell anything on there now since everyone wants everything so cheap which I get. But eBay fee's are insane and the shipping costs are too much.

>>723657487
SLEEK

>>723657580
Why are you picking out pieces that are clearly specialized and thus really expensive? Your gotcha is pathetic, stop being retarded.

>>723657580
I am legit speechless

>>723657804
wow looks like a real fun afternoon there

>>723657580
B-but you are poor if you don't want to pay $5. Lmao at modern lego defenders.

Ninjago is better than Bionicle ever was and I'm tired of pretending otherwise. Even the lore is better.

>>723657930
>wow looks like a real fun afternoon there
Excuses excuses to complain. That's why no one should ever listen to complainers like you.

I don’t know what arguments I stumbled upon here but why does every topic on /v/ devolve into “new is le bad”?

>>723657804
>why are you picking the special pieces?
>here is a list of the cheapest shit and smallest mass produces pieces for the real pices
stop being retarded

>>723657991
>Ninjago

>>723658038
Why don't you build your cheap set for poor children instead of complaining.

>>723657580
Nothing will ever beat Bricklink's string and net section.

>>723657804
Here's a challenge for you fagmotron, and you WILL refuse to take it because you know how bad you'll fail, even though it's the basis of your entire argument.
Quickly put together a very basic set, as simple as you like, that looks like a realistic small set you might give to a kid, and see how much it costs.
Go ahead. Since you're right it won't cost that much and it will prove all the whiners ITT wrong.
You'll say you don't have the time even though you'll be here for the next two hours defending a multibillion dollar company. Let's see you prove your point.

>>723658018
anon you are very good at replying to posts but missed this one >>723657673

>>723658038
>>723658129
In fact, why don't you build the set in the OP image and see how much it would cost, seeing as you're always assblasted about Lego being too expensive.

a /toy/ thread?! on my /v/?!?!

>>723658178
>You'll say you don't have the time even though you'll be here for the next two hours defending a multibillion dollar company.
lmao

>>723657580
um uh b-but that's a really special piece...

>>723658136
Oh right, it's only 1 (one) half of the Death Star. For that amount of money you should get the whole thing, scumy fucks...

>>723657580
That piece can't have cost more than 20 cents to make.

>>723658391
The girl is cuter.

>>723658261
I didn't miss it, I already answered it in earlier posts >>723654780

You just wastin my time because you don't like the answer I gave, which is go to pick-a-brick and build your own cheap set.

>>723658391
>>723658449
Take me back bros... fml

>>723658378
previously you could get the whole thing and have a few hundred dollars left over

>>723658178
I put the challenge on you to build that set in OP from pick-a-brick prices.

>>723635014
>actually
man I hate this kind of posters. I know all greeks were gay, Weimar republic trans, Romans were actually drooling retards, all nuns whores, dinosaurs just a few centimeters tall

>>723657804
>0.05 - 0.65
so in other words all those parts are actually £0.65 but you arranged to show them by least popular colour
fucking disingenuous faggot. if you're so sure you're right why not argue honestly?

>>723658462
why are you ignoring this post >>723658178

>>723658115
Yes oldfaggot it was good.

>>723658571
I didn't >>723658546

>>723658462
>go to pick-a-brick and build your own cheap set.
Yes, do that, show everyone you're right.

>>723658568
It was to counter the argument over the gotcha twat. He picked an expensive specialized piece to support his strawman argument when he could have just looked for the lowest prices.

>stop complaining, you can just assemble OPs set on pickabrick
So much for that plan. What's this lego dicklicker's next master plan?

>>723658115
>literally no argument
I accept your concession

>>723658645
I ain't fucking doing it. I don't give a shit and I certainly not going to waste my time proving a point you would never concede on when proven wrong.

Every complaint about modern lego is invalid because they sell more sets today than they used to. I genuinely believe this, what do you think of me?

>>723658804
he is going to suck lego cock for another 2 hours

>>723658863
>I'm not doing it, but if I did, I WOULD be proven right and you would be wrong
What are you basing that on? I told you how to provide the evidence and you are refusing to. Maybe you're a little uncertain now?

Oh dear oh dear oh dear

>>723635014
>we'll judge the best, by the mediocre

>>723658863
>I ain't fucking doing it
of course not because you know you'd be blown the fuck out. and now you're going to sit here still insisting you're right while refusing to prove it with a simple task.
just make a little kit and tell us the price anon.

>>723656943
The fingers are pretty neat.

You know if this guy actually made a set he'd intentionally make it entirely out of 5p flesh blocks just to make it as cheap as possible.

everyone knows that lego is overpriced shit by now, how come there are retards defending them

just build this

>>723659174
always bet on the third parent

>>723654497
The next three years of the Space theme was all completely based. Exploriens, Insectoids and then the Arachnoid stuff (not sure of the official name) from 1996-1998. I think Mars was next a couple of years later and was never as good.

> Transparent tinted plates
> The flying noise thing with the LEDs from Insectoids
> That fiber optic thing with the wires from Insectoids
All gone

>>723658980
>>723659096
Here's the parts list. Go fucking do it yourselves.

>>723656451
It is way too overdesigned and tailor made, you barely can do shit with it other than build diorama it is meant to be, which wasn't the case with old sets.

>>723659258
dude who cares the current lego catalog is bigger than ever

>>723658887
Modern LEGO relies of nostalgia fueled manchildren collectors.
What will happen once they lose that audience to time?

Might be the inner oldfag (this movie was of my parents time, but I grew up with the VHS), but I'd throw a mildly unreasonable amount of money at pic related, but for whatever fucking reason Lego refuse to make it happen, and the guy who keeps putting the set up on Lego's Ideas thing refuses to put the instructions out there for people to do it themselves.
Feels bad man.

>>723659275
the first three things I put into pick and build aren't even on there

>>723644089
Don't you worry, I've been into overpriced knights for many eons

>>723659258
it was exploriens, ufo, and insectoids
insectoids was pretty cool
life on mars was neat and very experimental, the ayys had some cool mechs
it would consider it the last 'true' lego space theme, as all the others were following the star wars style of 'conflict in a box'

>>723659458
STOP COMPLAINING LEGO OFFER MORE SETS THAN EVER BEFORE

Ten year old me fucking hated these levels and honestly they still stress me out a little.

>>723659638
Honestly based, fuck GW

>>723659613
I said leave it out OR find an alternative. This exercise is about proving small Lego sets are affordable, right?

>>723659626
So you're backpedaling on everything you said before, got it

>>723659560
It's funny that this experiment has failed immediately with one of the most basic sets imaginable. Imagine trying to build a mid range aquazone set like this lmao

>>723659674
>If I keep spamming my troll posts, he will eventually notice me.

I'd take grey and golden yellow bricks over proper metallic ones, it's what they did for the Delorean so it's not like they wouldn't do it.

Show us your approximation of OPs set and the price as provided by the pick a brick system.

Do the rest of the set. C'mon, prove to me you actually give a fuck about the price of Lego sets.

>>723658178
that faggot will never ever do this, but I just tried it for the fun of it and the following great depression tier set would cost $5-7 + delivery costs multiple times unless you find a seller that has everything you need

>arch $0.01
>1x1 brick $0.01 (x4)
>quiver $0.25
>bow with arrow $0.69

>torso $0.87
>bush $0.04
>green plate $0.05 (x2)
>archery target $2.5
>remaining misc pieces ~$0.15

tl;dr this would end up being extremely expensive and therefore is not an option. that anon is a proven faggot

>>723659956
if I tried that it might destroy my whole argument. I better not, but I'll stay here to keep saying I'm right

>>723659323

>"why dont boys like our shit anymore"

gee whiz disney

>>723659956
>You're clearly not busy
Yep. I ain't busy, but it isn't me who cries over the price of Lego. This is a test from you to prove to me that Lego is really expensive, even when it comes to the small sets. It's all on you to prove me wrong.

>>723655554
You're serious aren't you

>>723650264

I worked at a place for autistic people at one point. And the best day was when they found out there was a 3d printer. SO many 40K armies got made.

He thinks no complaint about modern LEGO is valid because there is three times as much stuff for sale from LEGO today than there was in the 90s.

Make sure to adjust the price for inflation as well.

so when you were accusing others of never conceding you were projecting, got it

I had this one with the glowie ghosty. Still have him in the old lego box.

>>723660524
you seriously can't buy a basic minifig head?

>>723660808
How in the fuck am I trolling when I just said I will concede if you prove to me small Lego sets like the one in the OP are way more expensive. You lot are always complaining about price, that Lego was cheaper in the past. Well, prove it by recreating that old set as best as you can from pick-a-brick.

I said from the very start I'm not doing it because you would never concede. I'm saying I will concede if you can prove me wrong. C'mon, I'm waiting. I don't give a shit if I'm right or wrong, I'm just sick of the endless complaining.

>>723660987

yes you are sick and tired of people criticizing this huge company, how dare they.
and you started by saying the complaints aren't valid because lego offer more sets now
then you said the complaints aren't valid because you can make your own sets (and it appears this was wrong)
and then you said that pointing out how expensive making your own set doesn't sound because the example given was of "special" bricks (a quarter of a cone)
and now complaints don't count because you cant be shown a recreation of OPs set even though that proves your point wrong. and no matter what you see you'll blame inflation anyway.

face it, you are a corpo dick sucker of the highest order. and you "don't care" but have spent over an hour fighting for them.

Shit thread but at least this was good

I think there needs to be a buddy cop style game with a Samurai and a Knight. It doesn’t have to be set in regular history if its not historically accurate. It can be in a made up setting.

Where are my adventurer niggas at

>>723661720
Only if the first half of the game is the Samurai in the Knight's homeland confused by their customs and then in the second half they have to go the the Samurai's homeland and they switch roles and the Knight is the clueless one.

Cervantes literally lived by them and only wrote Don Quixote to pay the bills and because he was a miffed war veteran.
And even then he returned to the classical knight story.

It's all cyclical. Stories back then were oversaturated with straight hero stories, only for hot new subversions to come around until they too got stale and people yearned for unironic heroism again.

>>723662148

Well sure, the point of Don Quixote was never that the ideals are inherently bad, it's just that they were dead.

Indeed. As further proof of point: have you seen these spiders in any modern game? Didnt think so, they'd all starve.

>>723662957
That thing should still be in my attic somewhere..

>>723661761
As much as I like the indy sets for the beautiful vehicles, the adventurer were so much better.
The big temples came as part of a tabletop game.
I don't remember if it was actually good as a game but I really enjoyed playing it.
For some reason I can't find any picture.

the wings on mine are a bit loose, but it still rocks

>>723639754
Some of the licensed slop is okay. I have as much of a nostalgia boner for 90s Lego as anyone in this thread, but I quite like the Hogwarts sets that my kids have. Little Ginny is probably the most adorable Lego minifig ever (and I don't even like her as a character in the books and movies)

My mother was such a cunt when it came to Lego. I was like 6 and she said I could finally "graduate" from Duplo to actual Lego sets, but before getting my first one I had to pick a theme (City, Pirates, Space, etc.) and from then on I could ONLY get sets within that theme. She wouldn't buy me anything else. It was traumatizing to have picked City and then later wished I could've had cool stuff like Pirate ships if I'd only known about them sooner.

>>723662465
I spent a week there on business and honestly it was kino as fuck.
Felt like a mixture of cyberpunk (in a good way) and 80/90's Japan.
Tons of Chinese cuties wanting to take pictures and some were even aggressively hitting on me.
I'm not sure if it was all a plan by Uncle Xi, but I honestly made mildly shilly for them.
I definitely want to go back, for tourism this time.

Fucked up.

I got the Technic Supercar when I was... 8 or so. It took almost 5 hours to put it together. A few years later once I learned to pool all parts into piles, I could get it down to 2h 30m. It has around ~1300 parts (I forgot the exact count).

This Technic set made me learn more about cars than anything before or since. It has a 4 wheel drive AND 4 wheel suspension AND 4 wheel steering all at the same time, plus working differentials (that thing that allows inner and outer wheels to spin at different speeds for ex. when turning, it's a simple but complex problem with an equally simple solution), a working V8 motor, and a FUNCTIONING GEARBOX. No other Technic set ever came close to this.

Honorable mention to the 1992 Air Tech Claw Rig which also has steering, a functioning motor, differentials, and a working hydraulic system complete with a motorised compressor (the motor eats 6x AA batteries in a few hours).

That shit was the coolest thing ever when I was 6. Hell, it still is.

Also, these guys. They were fucking bad ass. I took the peg holes on their legs to be expansion slots as if they were Centurions, and kept building exosuits for them.

>>723663276
Your mother sounds like a control freak

>>723663420
In case someone does not remember the Centurions. Was probably my favourite show on Cartoon Network in 1992-3-4... until they put Swat Kats on.

>>723641316
the game is shit

>>723663276
To be fair, it's easier to build spaceships and pirate ships out of City parts than to build fire trucks out of Pirate parts.
I had just a single house set (710) for like four years and I made so many different things from it.

Mount and Blade: Warband, when you are maxing honor.
>Always help the pesaents, even if they aren't yours (but only if you have the time and resources to do so)
>Hate bandits
>Not sacking villages
>Rescue random nobles from imprisonment in foreign kingdoms by sneaking in and fighting 20 guards to the exit for nothing but the lulz and friendship
>Advocate for fair and noble politics such as not starving to death, and hanging embezzlers by the neck using their own intestines
>Put lords that are known to pillage random villages for the lulz in jail, then take whatever lands they are holding so once the ransom request its sent and you accept they have an even weaker army, then stomp then again until his family can't request bail because they have no money.
>Don't attack peasents or caravans (this is not really a question of morality, its just bad for business since then the town they are trying to visit can't charge tarifs and thus lowering the prosperity rating of the town which makes life shittier and thus can't collect as many taxes as you could if life didn't suck as much, but you can make a lot of good by simply not being a dipshit).
>Don't kill bandits. Be humane. Knock them unconscious, then charge their families bail.
>Ocassionally let go good lords that you like and have a similar mindset instead of taking them to jail, so once you the lord likes you can be convinced of joining your faction (with the right conditions of course).

why is this box art so fucking cool

- Futuretron
- Space Police (1 and 2)
- Blacktron (1 and 2)
- Ice Planet
- M-tron
- Unitron

I had so many of these different sets growing up. I loved the Lego space series.

I wish I'd have bought the Ecto-1 set when it was $50. Now it's discontinued and goes for $450.

>>723663732
Did you know Centurions was designed by comic book legend Jack Kirby?

>>723663839
Futuron, not Futuretron.

>>723663420
I just gave them these and played star wars

>>723663969
Yes!
Have you ever heard of exo squad by any chance?

>>723663410
>>723663223
some bits are missing or replaced with incorrect ones but the most of it remains

>>723657205
>"Lego-compatible" sets
Does that get explicitly mentioned on the box, or did you have to look up comments from other people who bought it ?

>>723664042
Yeah that's what me and my friends used before the actual Star Wars sets came out.

>>723663839
I had Space Police 2, Ice Planet, and the hacker doods with the baller mecha face robots, I forgot their name. The robot was built in a way that you could take apart like half of it and it would still maintain structural integrity, which allowed for incredible "battle damage" builds on it.

>>723663119
Nice
I have a lego bin that the pieces would be in but I don't think I have the big sarcophagus thing any more which is a bummer. Just the sight of it hits the feels

>>723662963
Just recreate the sets on pick a brick

>>723657804
>clearly specialized
Its a fucking plastic molded piece. They make those by the thousands with plastic injection.

>>723657205
Some of them are close to real Lego quality-wise and some are subpar.

The one you posted seems to be from the latter category, you can see how the parts on the right side of the house poorly fit together even in the fucking publicity photo.

>>723664198
shit, forgot image. This is the robot I meant.
still have the Space Police 2 Galactic Mediator as well. My cousin had the Ice Planet super cruiser with the modular setup and the chain fence on the back.

>>723664070
Heard of it but never saw it. I know it got a Genesis game.
There was another HB show I saw but absolutely do not remember the name of, it was about a bunch of mountain raiders who used mecha suits that could cast light beams back & forth that materialised into rappelling wires. That's how they traversed around the mountain range. It had a good and a bad faction like GI Joe.

Oh god this level

>>723643682
This is pretty cool, and I'll probably play it later. However, I must know who the robotic semen demon you posted is.

>>723664542

>Honorable mention to the 1992 Air Tech Claw Rig

fuck yeah

HELP

Awesome, I'm jealous

>>723663584
>Knock them unconscious, then charge their families bail.
How do I built entire armies for just that purpose ? What units are best suited for it ?

>>723664726
I think some Nord infantry get hammers and I know Mamelukes can get maces but Mamelukes can also use swords
Not sure if any unit is 100% guaranteed to only have blunt

>>723664867
Also one of your commands is to only use blunt so if you're attacking bandits with your bigger army, then whatever portion of them who are carrying blunt weapons will probably be enough

KNEEL

>>723664392
kek

>>723665034
You first.

>>723665028
Yeah that command is what does the heavy lifting once you have a good enough base
And Mamelukes kick ass regardless so they are perfect

>>723635014
Always some subversive jewish people pushing these ideas and pretending good men never existed.

>>723632146 (OP)
that glowing ghost was so fucking dope

>>723632146 (OP)
I'm not that old but I hate how they discontinued the monster fighters sets. There are a couple that I never got my hands on and now are too expensive.

6034 Original 1990 Price = £5.73: Inflation adjusted = Around £21

Basically, this set is roughly around the exact same price if you build it with Pick-a-Brick.

Finally, we can put to fucking rest that Lego isn't any different in price as it was back then for its own themes.

>>723665305
love how it specifically advertises THE GHOSTS like they're Dante from the Devil May Cry series

>>723665201
are you people stalking me? Thats the 2nd set posted itt I had but forgot about.

>>723665335
>Ghost: No comparison as of yet
you lose

>>723645993

M-Tron and Ice Planet industrializing offplanet mining and resource collection enough to inspire a new Blacktron group and a whole spy-themed faction [Spyrius]. Unitron was the 'actually just a military' transition point. Also, as >>723646615 said, aliens happened. [UFO and Insectoids are part of Space]

>>723665317
Yup, I have all the ones I posted in this thread still. And also the 1995 Lego Technic one-pager.

>>723665034
I only had this little fucker

>>723665481
You've got £4 spare for a Lego ghost minifigure.

>>723665335
So whenever they add a ghost to pick a brick it will be free? You won't even add the price of a random minifig?

>>723639709
it was pretty cool to have, too

Any Lego Agents enjoyers?

>>723665589
You've got £4 spare for the ghost minifig. I've literally priced up everything else.

>>723665513
That sexy ballerina bitch got an onlyfans??

>>723654387

Get a used Netflix Soundwave, anon. You get ALL of the cassettes and prices are dropping due to people preparing for the SS86 version next year [that will be worse].

>>723644319
the plastic the arms are made of disintegrated last time i found my aquanaut sub set

>>723665335
>>723665585
So for £25 you can build a shit version of OPs extremely simple set with no ghost and this proves lego isn't expensive now?

>>723665416
One of the best minifigs they've ever done desu

>>723665481
>>723665589
BTW. Only the ghost cloak is absent. I priced the ghost head/torso/white brick for legs.

>>723636634
Megabloks had some cool shit, for me it was Alien Agency, had this one and the garbage truck mobile base.

>>723665335
why not buy the whole set on bricklink/ebay/whatever?

>>723665513
>that girl minifig in the middle
Probably the most underrated Lego theme ever.

>>723665763
No, you can buy it for £17.21 without the ghost cloak. That's less than the original price when adjusted for inflation.

Now concede.

wait is a guy actually arguing LEGO isn't expensive these days?
it objectively is expensive, everyone knows that. it costs more than its weight in gold, not even a meme. that's why LEGO delivery trucks get robbed. by anyones standards it's expensive, that's not up for debate, it's fact.

The Rock Raiders HQ base set was the core of many builds, but this transport flyer gave me a love of flying transports in games like Planetside, Battlefield, etc. Rock Raiders was a great series.

>>723640152
>modern lego skeletons have stiff arms
i was shocked when i saw it for the first time. how can they fuck up such an iconic and perfect design? for what reason? it's retarded beyond belief

>>723647394
Anon you fucking retard of he had this set as a kid he's in his late 30s or mid 40s. By Rattouie Tier nostalgia he meant the scene where the old reviewer remembers his moms cooking

>>723665492
>Spyrius
this saucer was the shit. it had a mechanism that allowed it to partially split open down the middle so the little buggy could dock and undock from the copilot seat, and it also had a cool huge long grabby arm thing i never saw on another set

>>723665335
Ah yes, inflation. Shut your dumbass up.

>>723665868
You have proven lego isn't expensive by showing us that a bad version of OPs set with no ghost costs £17. I concede.

>>723647814
I didnt know the island was a giant robot until a few years ago when I read about bionicles and got into MOCs.

>>723665741
The plastic arm on my sub >>723656092 seems absolutely fine.
Although I didn't play with it too much

>>723657170
Holy fuck I had this, but just like so many other sets it's lost to time.

>>723665979
>Ah yes, inflation. Shut your dumbass up.
Get fucked.

>>723665885
He's actually arguing that NO criticism of modern lego is valid. His main argument is there are more sets available these days but he's too embarrassed to say that anymore. Not that he ever admitted he was wrong, he just moved on to a new cope.

>>723636634
megablox pyrates fucked
they jumped on the market around the time of potc when lego didn't have a pirate theme running
had a bunch of cool factions too, different pirate crews, privateers, skeleton pirates, ghost pirates, probably some other shit i'm forgetting, giant animals
good shit, figures were pretty articulated, too

>>723665990
>You have proven lego isn't expensive by showing us that a bad version of OPs set with no ghost costs £17. I concede
Good boy.

>>723665971
fun fact: for some inexplicable reason the robot was named Major Kartofski

>>723657170

it do be like that tho

Go be a jew elsewhere

>>723665930
When Knight's Kingdom started having an evil necromancer as its main villian, they needed skeletons with proper arms so they could hold weapons and shit.
I really don't know why they didn't go back to the floppy arms after that theme, though.

>>723657695
>lego digital designer
Last time I checked it was pulled and changed it something else, tried that new program exactly 1 time but it felt too convoluted desu.

>>723657170
I don't think those poor dinos have any chance against a fucking Hind

>>723660775
I feel so bad. My kids will never experience the same great childhood like I had.

>>723666127
Now would you be gracious enough to concede that lego offering three times as many sets today does not, by default, negate everyone's criticisms of current lego?

One of my earliest memories is taking this nigga out into the snow, I must've been 3 or 4.

>>723666096
Oh hell yeah, I remember these, megabloks definitely had some good stuff, Pyrates and Dragons were great

>>723665335
plus for the effort but let's not pretend the ghost isn't half of the set lmao

>>723650960
I unironically bought some of these recently and they're actually fucking awesome actually

>>723657562
Lego was around for a long time before the sets being posted in this thread. They never had any licensed sets until Star Wars, and that completely supplanting Space was the beginning of the end.

>>723665429
These white wheels in this promo picture looked very edible to me when I was a kid, not sure why. I wanted to take a bite out of them.

>>723636634
These were top tier idk what year they came out but I got them for Christmas in middle school. to this day for some reason I think of these whenever I think of Christmas. All these years later I still remember them. Have some of my old ones I pulled out of storage recently. Might even buy some more online. Thanks dad RIP.

Found the retard.

/toy/is completely and utterly ruined due to third worlders and discord trannies and god fucking knows what else. Schizoid zoomer motherfuckers. I cant post all my autistic stupid lego shit anywhere now I'm so happy we're having a thread.

Lego Island and Mata Nui Online (the Flash game) were some of my favourite childhood memories period. I missed out on a ton of 90s and 00s lego games too.

Right now I mostly just buy old shit. New legos quality and philosophy is fucked up. I like lego sets to be actual building sets and toys not something in the background of a podcast on a reddit shelf . Normalfags ruin everything. Here is my fucking throw bot wizard

>>723666247
There's nothing to concede because your argument stems from paying a premium for licensed sets you want. My argument was never about that.

>>723666410
>Not a single LEGO being can take a step, stand, or sit anywhere in this "house"

Hitting too close to reality.

Don’t you I have family? I still live with my parents to help take care of them.
