As someone who loves statistics this really helped selling the Titanic I been holding on to buy. Also a big shoutout for including the kg in the comparison.
I just bought the Titanic today. I dont understand the people who like the Efill Tower more than the Titanic. The tower just seems too boring and repetitive of a build. The world map is a scam for being #1 largest set. I consider the Titanic to be the true largest.
I always thought weight, not piece count, should be used in comparing the price value of Lego sets. The only thing that I would change would be if the set has motors and other electrics in it.
Those are so big LEGO sets You should make RUclips shorts And I also have a RUclips channel called bricks n flips (it’s a LEGO channel to) love your city your my favourite RUclipsr
I figured out why I dont like the Eiffel Tower it's the color they used by lego. However I still love the Titanic much more then the Tower. Alex you are spot on once again. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving to you & your excellent family.. 👍👍👏👏🦃🦃👨👩👦👦
cool to watch.. especially if you have a big showroom like your place.. but a lot of people won't have that size of the Lego Room. At the end, I am not sure Lego is running in the right direction or not (especially adding 20% few months ago)...
Nice video! I’m highly interested in this and work with a spreadsheet for this as well. But I use both the RRP values of the sets as well as the price I bought them for. Now I fully agree that a 1x1 brick counts the same as a 16x16 plate in regards to piece count (which is indeed unfair) so we divert to weight. But only looking at weight isn’t fair either! For example a 1x8 brick weighs the same as 8 1x1 bricks, but I see more value in 8 1x1 bricks than a single 1x8 brick. So for a similar weight, a set with more pieces does have a bit more value IMO. So the total “plastic value” of a set should be a formula that takes both piece count and weight into account IMO. You could even go further to add in factors of rare colours, like a gold or silver piece is worth more than the same piece in white. Or add in a value for mini figure parts, printed pieces, etc. But that would all be more complicated to take into account. Maybe the “plastic value” could be something like: Weight x Piece count = Plastic value. If a set has a lot of pieces but doesn’t weigh much (like DOTS sets) then this set doesn’t have such a high ranking as when you just look at piece count. On the other side of the spectrum you have sets with fewer pieces but more weight (like Duplo) which shouldn’t score too high either. To my gut feeling the sets that would score the best when you add up both weight and piece count are the 3-in-1 sets, they usually have a good healthy mix of many pieces and a decent weight value. But indeed some of the bigger Creator Expert / Icons sets can have surprising results as well (like the Titanic as you mentioned)
I don't have the Lego Titanic. The Cobi Titanic is good enough. And the better model. But the Eiffel Tower is interesting. The old set didn't convince me. This one does.
@@alexnunes I stood on a scale without the completed Titanic and then with it. The kit is listed as just over 31 pounds for a shipping weight with the box and instructions. The box and the instructions don't weight 14 pounds.
@@douglasbray3563 Fascinating. I even used a different scale and it still came to 17 pounds. I mean, I showed it right on camera too. Anyway, I guess you got an overwait Titanic LEGO set. Nice job!
@@alexnunes I say AT-AT too. Mostly it's only the younger fans that pronounce it using the intials. They seem to be ignorant of how people (including those from Lucasfilm and Kenner toy commercials back in the day) said the name years ago. Who knows, maybe in the future some people will say the only way to pronounce Namor (the submariner from Marvel comics) is the way they say it in the Wakanda Forever movie (which sounds totally wrong IMO).
for me the titanic
For me both
Sameeee
@@johncarey1980 wat je vriendin
For me the tower
I have the titanic and I absolutely love it

Very interesting stuff. Would be intriguing to see what the other sets come out to.
The Falcon would be interesting. Fun information. Thanks for making an interesting video. I see myself doing the same thing.
This a very informative video! thanks for sharing this with us ^_^
zero attention to that iron thing😕 but titanic? it is love😍
if you do this for every set. You got a lifetime subscriber. This is so interesting. Thank you.
Titanic really sunk the competition, one could say.
I just bought the Titanic today. I dont understand the people who like the Efill Tower more than the Titanic. The tower just seems too boring and repetitive of a build.

I consider the Titanic to be the true largest.
As someone who has built and still has the Titanic set. I love it. I would love to get the Eiffel Tower to put beside it.
I always thought weight, not piece count, should be used in comparing the price value of Lego sets. The only thing that I would change would be if the set has motors and other electrics in it.
Eiffel Tower= height . Titanic= length .
Really nice one ..
But you missed out UCS MILLENIUM FALCON AND IMPERIAL SHUTTLE
The Imperial Shuttle wouldn't have been a fair comparison I think. Too old. Prices were way different back then.
The titanic was also $630 before the Lego price jumps.
is it not still $630?
@@cameronmeetze8153 I think it’s $680 now
@cameronmeetze8153 yes, you're right. Sadly
Thank you for showing the numbers in pounds as well as in kilograms, saved me a lot of converting haha.
yooooo when he panned the camera to his city 😭 that was beautiful how do i get more of the city content 😆
City content is on its way. Doing a rebuild and part one was uploaded today.
That was very cool to watch :)
I hate that for the eiffel tower has 10,001 peices and not 10,000
Those are so big LEGO sets
You should make RUclips shorts
And I also have a RUclips channel called bricks n flips (it’s a LEGO channel to) love your city your my favourite RUclipsr
I agree
Awsome
Interesting findings 🙂 Do you also have the Colloseum?
I do not have the Colosseum. Not sure I ever will tbh. I do wish I had it for the weight comparison though.
The UCS Star destroyer just recently sold out everywhere
Titanic is 800$ now at the arizona lego store
I'd love to see the numbers for the World Map, or any of the Art sets!
I don't get it. What's the point of measuring plastic value? The value of these things should not be quantified.
And I love it
Thanks for doing Kilograms.
first time watching and you r Lego room is quite the piece you need to see how much the price is in all

WoW😮
Can you add Home Alone to this comparison? Prior to the price increase it was the best value PPG.
I don't have the Lego Titanic. The Cobi Titanic is good enough. And the better model.
But the Eiffel Tower is interesting. The old set didn't convince me. This one does.
You forgot the sign on the lego titanic😂
You should do the colosseum!
my dream lego set is the eifeltower
The titanic weights 12 Kilogramms you weight just the middle
you might wanna specify.
the titanic is the same price in USD. it’s $630
it seems you showed 2 different currencies
The Titanic originally cost $630, but is now $680 with the recent price increases. I felt that was more applicable for this comparison.
Lego classic is by far the cheapest theme when it comes to price per pound/kg.
Donate for my that, titan
You should weigh the technic 1:8 supercars
Great idea!!!
I made a titanic lego
I'm titanic
I put mine Lego Titanic on the scale and it was just under 26 pounds
Are you sure you're weighing only the model? This would not include the box and instructions.
@@alexnunes I stood on a scale without the completed Titanic and then with it. The kit is listed as just over 31 pounds for a shipping weight with the box and instructions. The box and the instructions don't weight 14 pounds.

Pretty shure Your scal is off the titanic is over 30lbs
That's very strange. Someone else said they weighed theirs and it was the same weight as mine. What kind of scale did you use?
According to my scal the ifel tower including box and instructions is 32 lbs.
I will test my scals accuracy with weghts once I find mine. Don't know the scale
I think that the weght distribution might have something to do with it
I dare you to weigh Mindy, and figure out HER price per pound. 😛 j/k
That kind of money doesn't exist!
