  • In today's video we will be checking whether or not GCC is worth the money and the flaws it has.
    Sorry for not uploading for around two years I want to make a video talking about the flaws of the community and the reason I left it for so long.

    I think Star Wars will be getting kamas again next year. Solid Brix Studios often foreshadows insider information, and he has been proven correct every time. In a recent video he insinuated the line will be getting kamas in 2025.

    Yes and no. They allow you to get cool figures lego will never make but $30+ for a named character is egregious. Not to mention there’s only a limited stock so if you aren’t one of the first 100 people on the site during the launch of a new wave, you aren’t gonna get the new stuff. Those reselling websites are so trashy

    If the echo figure is cheaper it’s likely because he uses a replica helmet instead of an official one

  • @epsilona1779
    @epsilona1779 2 дня назад

    I agree with your points man, as someone who’s on the fence on getting custom figs, the only real time I can justify paying their prices is if the character I’m interested in is one I feel strongly for.
    But besides that, I can’t really bring myself to buy one of their products given that the money for one of their $30 figures could easily go to buying an official battle pack and get more quantity for my money.
    Either way I do hope they can lower the price for their figures as while with CAC I can somewhat justify their costs, for GCC I simply can’t due to the less detail I’m getting for the sake of Lego accuracy.

    Prices are mostly high because of expensive proces of producing. Pad printing isn't that common technic. Also they need to make profit but accually they aren't selling countless figures and they need to pay taxes + other costs. Another thing is that all other custom companies are selling their products for really simmilar price. Most of the customs are 20-30$ for a figure. Some figures in GCC uses official lego helmets - that are more expensive than their ABS copies.
    Still I can agree that their products (as also all other custom companies) are much overpriced.

      @Emil-vy7by the reason for that is because I made my order on early January of this year and i've uploaded it very recently since I was quite busy. GCC should in theory restock some of these items soon 🤞

    I just started my custom journey, and it has been interesting. Currently been looking at gcc lambent striker (im a bf2 sucker), and cac hasnt made their version yet. But yeah their prices are a little high. I bought my first cac order recently with their sale but for about the same price as one gcc figure, i got 2 figures and a whole bunch of extra, but again, it was a sale. So while i think their products are good (at least from videos), their prices are a little more than I would like. Good video though

    A Child when he doesn't realise how expensive it is to PAD Print minifigures and that they cant do it for literal pennies. Also you do realise you could've gotten shipping cheaper if you bought your item from an official reseller of the product? The shipping is expensive because you're having to order it from Asia

      @@flowbricks That's just straight up lying bro. They use PAD printing since they started pretty much and GCC also uses "knockoff" parts. You didn't get the point of the video, I enjoy GCC but the prices are way to high and there's no excuses for it.

  • @GeeWunner
    @GeeWunner 4 дня назад +8

    It is worth it for $18 figures with $2.50 replica helmets because the official Lego parts cost ~$1 per figure. There are also labor costs for designs and sanding off lego prints, so if figures are not so expensive then the helmets which are used to upgrade existing figures would have to cost double. GCC’s biggest issue is stock. With higher prices, they can expand production so that more people can obtain their products. After that they can lower prices. Then GCC is affordable and obtainable. Please don’t complain about prices on GCC figures. With name characters you are paying for the official helmet and the limited availability due to the rarity of official helmets (especially the ones in unreleased colors)

    • @scoutbricks4603
      @scoutbricks4603  3 дня назад +3

      I'd agree with most of what you said, however I cannot justify a 5,50€ price jump when the figures don't even have Arm printing. Also smaller competitors offer better prices and as far as I'm aware CAC never reduced they're prices once they got big.

    Their high prices are worth it. When you buy from LEGO you have a chance of getting a wonky print. This rarely happens with GCC and if it does you can get a replacement. LEGO doesn’t care enough if you have a miss aligned print. I can not tell you how many official LEGO clone helmets I’ve received with shitty prints. I’ve bought tons of helmets from GCC and only even had ONE print issue.
