For those rare stuff in fancy colors that's in fact problematic. Not so for the black pin: You don't only get tons of them in big Technic-Sets, but they are also in about everything ;)
I really think there are two honorable mentions. Ship in a bottle (21313) for dumping 284 of the same piece into the bottle with a single step, and the already mentioned Roller Coaster (10261), which asks you to chain together 203 tiny chain links in one step. These aren't the most pieces in a box, but possibly the most you'll see (or deal with) at once.
not technically on the same piece but bonsai tree makes you do something similar to ship in a bottle where you dump 200 small pieces into one container.
I don't really count ship in a bottle as you're literally just dumping a bag into the lego bottle, nothing is actually being attached. It's not tedious at all and can be done in about 5 seconds if you have the bare minimum of hand eye coordination. Whereas the looping coaster actually requires you to stick a bunch of pointy jagged chain lift pieces together, your hands feel raw once it's done
Would be interesting to compile a list of what the most used pieces are overall. Would be a lot of work. But could be done with computer image processing to scan through instruction manuals and deposit the tally in an excel sheet. Just wanted to clarify. If you could get pdf's of all Lego set instructions you could run a very simple image processing program over the index of all the parts in the set. That's just the first few pages and is very doable. I think what I originally said came off more as scan every page lol.
You may just want to crawl rebrickable or any other Set Database. If you would have access to their SQL Database, It may be just one command to get the top n most used Lego pieces :D
It's actually happened to me with the roller coaster one, wasn't too bad to reassemble since all the pillars had a technic axle down the middle keeping them together.
@thomas technic pin connections are pretty dang strong. If something does come off it’s something like a moveable object that only has 2 or even possibly 3 connections.
8:12 The 21309 Saturn V has 148 (+16 printed) "White Slope, Curved 3 x 2" elements. I know, it's not that much, but it's an unusual piece to have that many of in a single set consisting of less than two thousand parts.
@@PotatoCrispGaming it's the same model but they changed the number after a few years instead of discontinuing the set like they usually do with all sets because it was still very popular.
The Ideas Ship in a Bottle has you dump 284 translucent blue studs into the bottle to act as the "water". When I got to that step, I did a double take. That is probably the most pieces used in a single step out of any lego set.
I'm not sure about the orchid set, but I know the birds of paradise set has you mix 200 tan single studs and 100 Brown single studs together to make the dirt for the pot. At least the ship in a bottle contains all those loose studs in a bottle, I think I probably lost at least 50 studs of dirt
I’ve always thought about stuff like this. Because I’ve never had enough money to buy these big sets, I’ve never been able to see their manuals. I’m glad that you put out this video to satisfy that curiosity!
I remember when I was super young, I used to count every piece in the set and check it with the list on the back of the build instructions. My dad saw me about halfway through marking off the list when he said "you know you don't have to do that right?"
I'm about to start the robie set. It's hella expensive where I live so I build it on studio with the instructions for free. Can't put it on a shelf but it will be awesome as a wallpaper
Make a list of the sets that have the most pages of piece index. The highest I’ve found is the ninjago city gardens at 10 pages. (I did count one page of the large spiral bound Star Wars instructions as two pages. By the way are there any spiral bound instructions that aren’t Star Wars?)
I do like most of these construction styles better than a lot of the overly specialized large parts. I'm reminded of things like bionicle Piraka bodies where they had like 7 pieces for the entire torso and 4 of them were snaps. That's nice and easy to construct but what if I want to make something else out of that set? Probably the only alternative use for that huge part was like a limb piece or something. But then you need a build with limb segments about 11-13 studs long or something and very robust, and that's getting to the point where you would expect not to be using large premade parts as an entire limb segment.
My favorite abundant price in a set I own is the bonsai tree with 100 pink frogs that are supposed to be cherry blossoms. Owning so many pink frogs gives you a feeling of power
i have it too! was hoping to see someone think the same thing lol. i put a single pink frog on in the leaves of my green tree as a nod to the 99 others that didn’t make it hahaha
on the Bucketwheelexcavator you could also mention that there are 53 of the 5x7ish technic frames. When i disasembled it to build the B model it looked like 50% of the parts were these but stilla an awesome video and i somehow had it in mind that lego would use this trick to push the amount of overall parts. Greetings from Germany
Well probably it came out after this video, but the Lego Art world map goes for a WHOPPING 1879 Dark Turquoise round tile, 1601 Medium Azure, and 1006 Lime ones...
i feel that technic has actually a matter at their colours. Thats my theory: light grey:spinny banana its so wonky and sloppy dark grey: a little bit harder blue:not for super spinny stuff, but it does spin black: OMG!! IT CANT EVEN SPIN.
Actually color was a thing back before 2015~ ish Black is a tight fit Blue and gray lose and rotate but can‘t come lose (both are quite similar yes grey is a bit more lose) Red is to highlight things Now there are just random colors inside to get rid of unused color from factory … Still pins are like usually YET there are already some with weird colors like orange
The only "large" build I've ever done is the mario NES one, with the mosaics on a belt, so not only mosaics, but split into segments Edit: and the Saturn V
yo! ive found a bigger amount! its from the Lego World Map, it has 11695 pieces, and "1879 FLAT TILE 1X1, ROUND Medium Azur" pieces! u should check it out! the lego set number is "31203" its the newest biggest set of lego.
Occasionally Lego can hit the realm of "monochrome puzzle". In many cases 1 by 1 cheeseslopes could have been 2 by 1, etc, they do produce them. I guess the Architecture ones go for bearly noticeable texture, but for instance in most Creator cars it actually hurts.
There is a set that’s a pirate ship in a bottle. There’s also “water” in the bottle made up of one by one circular transparent pieces. I remember building it and the amount of “water” pieces was around 70p, so it should have been on the list.
I know an elderly man that loves to build lego sets including lego technic, many of them didn't work properly and so he let me borrow a couple of them to completely rebuild them, one of those was actually the bucket wheel excavator! I've never built any set as big as that and I also noticed how many black pins there were, and now I'm suprised to find out that I've built a lego set with the most black pins!
the empire state building looks like it would be boring to build, but when I built it it was one of my favorite builds of all time. Really great set and I recommend it if you like to turn off your brain and just build for hours.
I work at a Lego warehouse and putting all the pieces into a bag is never a problem. We take 10-30 for sampling, put those on a scale and we set that weight to that amount and keep adding on more and the weight tells how many of those pieces are on the scale based off weight amount when it’s 100+ pieces. Otherwise you have to count them out by hand so that’s why sometimes you get a little extra or missing a couple in the set.
You deserve a like just for the research itself. And if I could, I would give 2 likes, the second one for the awesomeness of your channel! Love your videos man, keep on the good work!
Largest pile I've done is the Jawa Sandcrawler (70759) that has 304 tread pieces that get assembled in 2 steps. I've disassembled and reassembled this set 3 times but those treads get packed away intact.
Well, the world map be like "HERES 3064 white 1x1 studs! (and 725 tan tiles, 1060 bright green tiles, 1607 aqua tiles 1879 teal tiles!)" taking spots #1, #2, #3 and #4 just for itself :D

Why doesn’t this have any replies or likes
I will ok
Idk

The fact that there's like 500+ of a piece and they only give you one extra piece per color is hilarious
The only good thing is they are so mass produced, that getting replacements wont be that expensive :D
For those rare stuff in fancy colors that's in fact problematic. Not so for the black pin: You don't only get tons of them in big Technic-Sets, but they are also in about everything ;)
You can contact Lego if you lose a piece in a set, they will replace it for free depending on the piece.
The empire state building didn't have an extra grill piece which is hilarious
yeah, isnt it?
