I agree that this set deserves legendary status. It makes me think of what could be done with a new space shuttle design.
Me personally, I feel Lego did a phenomenal job with the Discovery shuttle back in 2021
The recently did one! And it's excellent! I actually own that set. Worth a look!
I honestly don't think the build could be done better, even with potentially new bricks 10-20 years in the future. Really seems like they managed to push Lego to its limits with this build. Looking forward to getting mine.
Only thing I can think of is building the wings out of plates so the leading edges could taper down, but that would need a ton of plates and upside down plates to keep the smooth look.
My biggest worry was the structural integrity. The fact that Jang was able to easily throw it about and pose it at the end alleviated all of that. This is a definite buy for me. Thanks Jang!
If you grab it right infront of the wings on the fuselage you can hold it straight out with one hand, very sturdy build. Really the only part I wouldn’t hold it one handed by is the tail portion
We need more sets like this.
I'd love to see a 747 or even better, an AN-225.
More 200$ sets???
@@rictusmetallicus Would you rather have a cheap set that looks nothing like the source material or a normal $200 set that looks very much like the real thing?
@@rictusmetallicuscome on you know that’s not what he meant
@@rictusmetallicusYes they're awesome. If you can't afford them there are plenty of cheaper sets. OR just save for one you really want.
This is a thing of beauty, truly. I am so glad TLG did it justice - even how the gear is retracted - just wow! Excellent review, and spot on. This isn't just destined to be a classic, it already is.
Technic seats in the interior are super realistic - that's about how much you can incline an economy seat in real life too.
The only thing that would have made this set better would have been optional Air France and British airways decals but I understand why they didn't do that. I HOPE lego sees the positive response to this set and makes all new sets to this standard of price/what you get ratio, and quality.
I would have pay 10 euros more to have a pilot and two hostesses, one for both the operators.
Well, even without minifigures, best set of the year (and in my experience the best construction experience after the 10305 castle).
you'd need to license those liveries wich make it more expensive and even than you can only pick one and by doing so you wouldn't be able to please everyone, honestly a more accurate prototype livery would have been greate but this is good enough
I could listen to Jang describe paint drying for an hour and still be totally invested. Not too much of a lego set-purchaser as of late but great informative review as always Jang!
This set has done something to Jang that other sets have been struggling to do for a while. It actually made Jang play with it.
It's a shame Lego is committed to not doing military aircraft, this set really makes me want an SR71 model.
I was thinking the same. It's kind of odd too, as they don't seem too fussed about Imperial Star Destroyers and such. 😂
They should just create an off brand version called "high altitude jet" then give it a bright color scheme, like they've done with a few fighter jet sets in the past 😂
LEGO is leaving a LOT of money on the table with their “no military” stance.
I must say, seeing it in hand and knowing it’s measurements, it’s a lot bigger then I thought.
Droop Snoot!
the snoot droops
The droop would snoot
The snoot drooped.
Droop snoot?
The snoot drooped?
Whenever you can't immediately tell it's made of Lego, it means they did a great job.
A classic set! This one will stand time well. Can't wait to build, thanks for the vid!
The set will, the white parts certainly won't.
Thank you JANG for a high quality review of this really high quality set. I was so surprised to see how durable this set is as well as all the prints. Also I’m glad to know there are no production issues with this such as transparent white pieces. 10/10 and like you said the price is on point
The duel mould wind screen is next level plastic production. It’s parts like this that make me wonder how they will knock it off. This set is definitely up there with the Saturn V.
I just wanted to say that you are one of my favorite reviewers on RUclips. You don't talk really fast. You don't shout. You're very calm and informative, but also enthusiastic and positive. Keep up the superb work!
Been watching you since back in the RC review days. You sir are the Bob Ross of reviews!
Just spent 4 hours on the Concorde and got through bag 10. Such a fun build and highly reccomended!
As a practicing Structural Engineer and lego lover, this set amazes me. From a technical standpoint the strength to slenderness ratio is amazing. The other cool thing is the stand, it would need to be connected to the centre of mass of the Concorde model to allow it to be displayed in flight position. Great job lego, now I just need to save up the $300AUD to make the purchase !
I use to love watching the LEGO city videos on your main channel and I love to see that you are still into LEGO. You honestly shaped my childhood, so thank you so much for that! Much love
Great review Jang. Living in Melbourne Australia l remember when Concorde flew into Melbourne over our house in the 70s. The noise was mind blowing and it looked majestic. I bought this set because of the memories. Great set and thank you Jang for your honesty and knowledge.🙏🖐
Wow! Great review as always... It's amazing how fast you built this AND reviewed it for us! Love your work Jang. Thank you.
Great review as usual! (and thank you for answering the question about the black 1x2, it was diriving me crazy!) Looking forward to finishing mine.
Wow. The landing gear mechanism completely blew me away. 😮
Thank you so much for the review!
Looks great, and I feel like the price is pretty good considering how big + nicely done it is.
That is a really sleek and well-done incarnation of a Concorde in LEGO form. I really have to applaud there being no stickers for the decorations.
I'm suprised by how sturdy it is, especially the wings.
This makes me want to watch some documentaries ahout the Concorde.
Holy cow, this looks amazing. I love seeing these notifications pop up bc Lego has way too many sets coming out all the time. It becomes overwhelming to keep up with. This may go on my Wish List
Great job!! I always thought Lego never put a piece in between the studs like on the top front of the plane. It is the first time I have seen this done in the instruction book. Thank you for all you do to educate us on Lego.
This is peak lego, incredible mechanism and aesthetics
Extra pieces to help construct a model are used before. The Lego Creator Ferrari F40 had 2 1x3 green plates. Another example is the Lego Star Wars V19 had an extra 1x8 brick (or was it a tech bar, not sure anymore) to help allign the wings. And there are some other examples. I know the racers line does this sometimes, but those parts are used later in the process. But ok, back to this set. What a Behemoth. I hope my wife is willing to give this for my upcoming birthday. Do I have space for it? No, but I have to rearrange my Lego room anyway. Bad thing of being Dutch is, that houses arent that big, comparing to American houses (at least outside the city center). Have to do it with 16 square meters. Well, at least it will make me drewl watching the internet anything other than adult stuff. Always a pleasure to watch your content.
The new "exo-force hand" mold started production some time this year (they started being listed on the digital pick a brick service around july), as far as I know they started showing up in sets in August
Purchased the moment it became available on the website, to me this set and the Saturn V are equally incredible display pieces and quite well priced
Those stress tests stressed me out, but I am glad to see that the build quality is impeccable. Thank you for putting your set on the line! I have already started saving for this set.
Excellent review. Mine is hidden somewhere in our home awaiting my birthday. My partner insisting I won’t be receiving it before then. Being a diehard Concorde fan, I can’t wait to build this!
Thanks for mentioning the leftover 1 x 2 black piece. When I built it it had me going back over the instructions to see where I missed it out! Very rare to have anything bigger than a 1 x 1 left over.
I wish lego would tile off more 18+ sets like this.
This was an incredible build. There was a couple of things I felt could have done better. The 2x4 with red stripe on each side of fuselage, the cheese slope on the wing edge. I was stumped when the instructions had an orange assembly to lock up the gear mechanism early on. It was removed a couple steps later.
But.... well worth the investment. Agreed with others. There needs to be more sets like this.
That's to get the axles for left and right main gear aligned, since they're linked through gears and it's really the easiest way to make sure the whole geartrain is synchronized. Other sets with similarly linked mechanisms (like multiple steerable axles) often do the same thing where temporary parts lock them into the matching positions.
I waited for your review. You are my favourite Lego RUclipsr. I got it right on 4th and its just outstanding. I enjoyed every second of the build and it looks absolutely fantastic in my opinion🤩 keep up the great Work.👍👍👍 Greetings from Germany
It looks fantastic but I can't help but think about how yellow it will get as time goes by.
Yeah that’s a pretty standard concern. If it means anything, I’ve had the Lego UCS imperial shuttle and Saturn V for 4 years now and I didn’t notice any yellowing on them yet. Granted, they are not exposed to sunlight during display
I thought the white plastic formulation was changed a few years ago, so yellowing doesn't really happen any more
@@kq1534My saturn v is holding good just dont do what jangs doing otherwise major rebuild on the saturn v.
@@kq1534 Same here. The Saturn V and the UCS Snowspeeder are still in perfect shape...even the stickers on the Snowspeeder! 😉
That's just incredible, it's incredibly smooth and almost minifigure scaled
I have to admit, while I still have some misgivings about the shaping of certain areas (that's entirely down to me being too much of a nerd for my own good), the build absolutely turned me around with how fun it was, with such a refined end product!
Still won't stop me turning mine into a Tupolev, though :^)
Concordeski!
Getting two and replicating the Sinsheim museum setup would be so sweet.
well, good luck with the engines and gear lol
There is also a small landing gear near the tail (to assist with taking off and landing) that IS present on this model.
As a native Frenchman, I am thrilled at how well LEGO has captured the beauty, the power, the raw elegance of the Concorde.
This is a must-buy for me. And how cool would it be to buy 2 of them and MOC up an XB-70 Valkyrie?
Definitely good to have left over parts like this . The whole plane looks amazing with how smooth everything is They did a great job with the landing gear function but I do wish we had more interior space . Would give this a 9.8 / 10
Loved the set from the moment it was revealed, and every review I see only confirms it! It gives me the same vibe as the Saturn V, another almost flawless set. This is gonna be a 100% certein buy for me.....I only have to think where and how I'm gonna display it (somehow mount it flat against a wall maybe?)
There's only two things I would have rather seen different: 1) those studded plates on the wings, which could just as well have been tiles. Easy fix. And 2), as cool as that landing gear is, it would have been even better if it could be removed in an easy way, with some additional parts to close things up nicely.
It’s a brilliant model and build. Nothing has felt repetitive at all! My only complaint is the shape of the nose… it’s a bit wonky as the three cone pieces don’t perfectly align.
It seems like it’s been incredibly popular too, at least in the U.K. I ordered as soon as it came available and delivery was delayed nearly a week, which has never happened before. And it went on back order pretty quickly.
With the Airbus partnership and the popularity of this, I’m hopeful we will get an A380 in the future!
Nice plane, nice review, nice beard man 👍 thx for the review and all the best from Poland 🤘
This just arrived for me from Lego, I used my VIP/Insiders points to get a huge discount.
Your review has made even more excited to clear the dining room table and get it built.
Great review. Nice looking kit, but once again I have a problem with prints being misaligned. That will really spoil the red cheatline along the fuselage. I also do wish that they had made one more specialized part at the bottom of the cockpit to more smoothly blend the underside into the back of the nose cone pieces.
Otherwise, looks great! Looking forward to picking one up, building it and hanging it from the ceiling next to my Lego Sopwith Camel.
Mine arrived this morning! Can’t wait to build it later, it looks stunning
Great review Jang, always a pleasure to watch.
Keep up the work jang ! I hope you have a good day or night
I wasn't considering this set but the reviews and responses in the comments section have really stood out to me. Its a very nice looking plane and its a very refined model. If I were to put my lego investor hat on I's say this one is worth it. I have a feeling like 5 ten years from now this one is going to go up in value like crazy. There are certain things like pirate ships and castles that Lego does an incredible job on, and this is one of those types of sets where they really hit the mark.
Hey JANG, Are the white bricks the same color white everywhere? Some reviewers seemed to notice soms discolloration in some places. Curious to hear your take if that is the case! Loved the review and am definitely liking the set
Were you in aviation at some point, Jang? You're the first person I've seen review the set that used all the proper terminology for aircraft construction
Would love to see these types of building techniques (landing gear, wing design, etc.) on a new wide body commercial airliner or even a military aircraft such as the SR-71 Blackbird. Maybe even a revitalized Boeing 787 Dreamliner since Lego has come miles upon miles on newer pieces to achieve such sleek angles. This set gives me hope for more future airplane models!
I wonder if we can technically skirt around the "no military" rule and see jets like the SR-71, T-38, or F-15 ACTIVE because all were operated by NASA for research purposes. Probably not but one can hope
I didn’t know the forward windscreen was dual molded, that’s super deluxe!!
Did enjoy the build Thanks!❤
7674 also used a temporary brace part to hold the nacelles in the correct orientation during construction.
You definitely put this set on my radar! Awesome!
Amazing set ! Cannot wait to see more historic aircraft made by Lego
Happy Review!
Good review mr jang. Thanks dude 🙏
This is going to be one of the two sets I buy myself for Christmas this year. Love love love it. Just waiting for double VIP points (sorry… Insider lol) closer to the holidays before pulling the trigger.
dang this review made me want this set more than any other review out there
Hey JANG, man this is the best, here in NZ we pay $330nzd but worth it i feel, great review bruv.
Thank goodness everything's printed! Can you imagine trying to get all those tiny little windows lined up properly!
Wow fantastic set enjoyed watching twitch great review
Well worth the price, the only thing that sticks out is the droop snoot where it transitions from the cone to the blocky widow segment.
Amazing set!
I hope lego makes more realistic planes like this
Price is decent
Extra support pieces are good
i received it for christmas, and believe me it's absolutely fantastic, and absolutely sturdy. Only complaint was a single missing piece (that i had in stock anyways)
I was blown away when building mine. I don't do much Lego and it's brilliant.
Now that LEGO has done an airplane with brick built wings, it’d be nice to see them release some Neo-Classic Space builds with studless designs (a la Peter Reid style).
The left over 1x2 black plate really messed with me for a while. Went back through the instructions and took apart the assembly to find where I messed up. I didn't.
Finally picked this set up and i agree it's great- except the factories supplying the Australian sets are extremely inconsistent, the wings look awful in most lighting because of the variation in colours between all kinds of parts - there are about 3 different shades of white :/
But it seems you got a good one !
This makes me want an SR 71. Maybe in the future when that’s less recent
I only wish they would have furnished the whole length of the interior. Pretty sweet model!
when you grabbed it by the tail it looked like some kinda sword
its so sleek looking
Bought it the day it was released to the (non-VIP) market. It was missing one dark blue 2×1×1 Technic piece (with a cross hole and round hole) that is a part of the main gear retraction mechanism in bag 3, so pretty early in the construction. And the piece is enclosed deep inside so I couldn't postpone it and wait for replacement from LEGO unless I wanted to stop the whole build. Had to steal it from some other set.
Great review! Thank you!
In the back, over the shelf of the orange technic Porsche, a white fighter jet. Which model is that? I'm not sure I've seen this before..🤔
Thanks for the review. I also agree that Lego has been showing some quality issues, I have bought some sets recently where you can see the design work was sloppy and not what you expect from Lego.
perfect set, couldn’t ask from more of it. if i had the space and money it’d be on my shopping list for sure
I saw one in the airport Lego store for £144. I had to pick it up. It was a steal!
I have enough cash right now to spend on only one and it's a difficult choice between this and The Ghost 75357 ($170). Which of the two would you recommend I pick up first?
Maybe this is blasphemous to say, but I think they should have made it minifigure scale. Like, even enough to sit them in those seats. The set is amazing and I get that it's not supposed to be a playset, but they could have potentially gotten the best of both worlds. Like, imagine if you (as in, anyone) could put this in your custom city with minifigures boarding
Wanted to get this over the weekend but they were all sold out 😭 gonna try later this month
I want to see them do an X-wing canopy dual molded like that windshield
This is a phenomenal set! I probably won't get it due to budget and space as a poor college student who still lives at home, but if I had $200 to spend on LEGO and plenty of space, this would be the first set to go for. I'm not much of an airplane guy (I do like watching documentaries on plane crashes though, funnily enough) and I didn't know much about the Concorde prior to LEGO announcing the model, but I've come to learn more and appreciate both the aircraft and the set even more. I suggest anyone who is even the slightest bit curious about the set or aircraft take a bit of time to learn more about the plane; it's a truly phenomenal aircraft with a phenomenal set of it here done by LEGO!
Droop Snoot but in Lego.
Like this one.
Waiting for some discount or a good GWP to get it.
Fun fact, Lego has actually done the temporary bracket thing as far back as set 7674 V-19 Torrent
I doubt Lego would make this since it’s a retired military aircraft, but I would LOVE to see a Lego Avro Vulcan, similar to this Concorde build.
I think, could be wrong but i think the brackets were used on the v19 torrent from 2009ish. But I built it more than 10 years ago so I could easily be wrong
Thank you for this review. It's better than I could ever imagine.
just bought it on Amazon and oh man am I super exited to build it.
As an icon set, surely lego must make the queen of the skies, the 747. Hopefully the 747-400
I bought a Mountain Dew pencil with that same jingle on it.
I consider Concorde the greatest engineering achievement of the 20th Century. What a beautiful, even feminine and absolutely timeless thing it is. Lots of love from Australia.
One of my very few regrets was not saving more as a younger person in order to fly her.
I would love more airliners at this scale or similar. They have the Boeing and Airbus licensing so it should be no issue
