  • Take a detailed look at the new LEGO IDEAS Motorized Lighthouse... it's perfect! The furnell lenses design honestly takes it over the top and makes it so authentic. The way the electrical components are integrated is once again perfect! I love this system style build and honestly, this set continues to grow on me!

    $300 is much too steep, and I am glad people are talking about it. That is the only way to get our message across as longtime LEGO fans. I feel bad for the designer who may lose out on sales due to this insane price. Great review though! It looks amazing and I was excited about this release, but may wait based on the price.

      To me this is the same value set as the tree house and it’s 20% more expensive which is on par with all the price increases. It sucks, but that’s what it is.🤷‍♂️

      To be fair there is a new light and lens in this set which does boost the price a bit and then there’s the price increase stuff, without it, it would’ve probably stood at $250 which is a much more reasonable price but yeah these price increases reallyyy sucks

      How about you look at it this way....it costs the same price as the daily bugle and twice the price of black smith idea set. Does that make any sense? That is insane and no it is not what it is. We decide to buy or not my friend. For me, forget it although Lego is and hopefully will remain my hobby! Hopefully more and more adult fans will stop or at least cut down on purchasing all these insanely priced sets recently released. Lego must reconsider their prices. Yes, perfect set with the most imperfect price :)

I'm really curious to see how bright it is and how prominent among the city. This set is cool and I'd love to have it, but I do have one complaint. I sort of think it should have been USB powered instead of battery powered. For the price, I think it would have been better.

    Lego has lost their goddamn mind on what pricing to put on items. I really really love Lego but I really also hope that this hurts the bottom line doing what they’ve done and drives down sales!

    what are you doing for MILS for this set? Are you going to purchase dark blue plates and MILS it?

    My issue is not with the price, as I'm content with the fact that it's due to power functions, more as I don't have much room for more vertical sets. I had to move everything around just to find a spot for my Loop Coaster... I need a basement.

    Hey bricksie, I’m about to start building the moc castle from the 3-1 castle. I want to build it directly on a mils plate. I was hoping you would do me a favor and provide me with the dimensions side to side and front to back. So I know how many mills plates to start with.
    Hope the kiddies are doing good and your getting some rest

    Sure its looks good, but that what it. But the Lighthouse from Bluebrixx is way better in terms of Price and Pieces and interior. The Lego Lighthouse is way to Expensive in my eyes.

    I think the “fire place” might be a oven because there’s a bunch of cooking stuff over it and there’s a tea pot on it cause of the cooktop but idk for sure

    I wish LEGO made the dark blue baseplate an official product!
