@@tld8102 yes the shipping boxes were pretty poor quality and did not look great. But surprisingly there was minimal damage to the sets. Maybe just got lucky!
@TheBrickQuest you do realize the euphemism "fallen off a truck" means bad guys involved right? And not an actual 'the product fell over and was damaged' TEMU probably works in factory 'seconds' made in factory, but something off like the blue is blue#2 not blue#4 in printing.

Hi, just a quick advice. You can just scan the code on the building instruction booklet to gain points with Lego loyalty program to know if it's original or fake without wondering a lot. Enjoy the new sets :)
Hey I got the giant LEGO Bowser on sale from Target and for some reason the manual isn’t scanning. But all the parts have the LEGO stamps on them and everything else with the box and manuals seem legit. Does that invalid code mean the sets fake?
To be honest, I have worked in production faciliites, and it appears these are probably items that were damaged on the production line at some point. Most likely they are set aside so that they can be reboxed or repackeged. This is where they most likely are "removed" from the warehouse. Usually, you try not to send anything less than perfect to the stores.
@@Niewiem6301 True, but here in America, people won't purchase a damaged box unless they get a discount on it. It is a bit stupid, but it is the way a lot of people are. If the boxes were slated for certain markets they might not care about the damage, but for others it is an issue.
The "unreleased sets" due for 1 August 2024 US release were already released worldwide on 1 June 2024. Moreover, those "savings" which you had presumably saved were actually normal prices which you would have gotten from the major online retailers. In the end, there was no "real" savings at all. I would rather not trade reputability and after sales service when it comes to expensive items.
@@kubbilykub so the two city sets don’t come out here in the US until August 1st unfortunately. They may have been released in other places around the world though. But I definitely agree. Reputability and after sales service is big!
Exactly and the harbor set looks exactly like it does here in Europe with the paper bags and so on (sometimes you still get plastic). And I love the new two part boxes, finally back to something that feels to be reusable.
Fake lego are not allowed using the LEGO logo in trademark even in China, usually the fake one will be use another name on the packaging and maket, and by the way i just check the 60409 on chinese online market, the price is 560 RMB which is around 77 USD, i think that is why TEMU got the range can offer the better discount.
If the manuals have the qr codes what happens if you register them before release? Do Lego know where they send each code? I saw big box store workers on Reddit saying that they have some sets in their storerooms months early…
Hello brick quest! after seeing your video I also purchased some Legos off of temu and one of them has a misprint on the box it's missing how many pieces come in the set is that worth of any value?
Lots of these sets have been released in Australia, but don't seem to be in the rest of the world. I don't know why. We often get huge shipping delays so perhaps to try and mitigate that, Lego has released early. The ship yard was released in July for us. Temu has a warehouse in Ausyralia, so perhaps they acquired the sets from Australia discounted for a bulk order and have on-sold them
As someone mentioned, they either fell off the lorry, or are supposed to be held back due to damaged packaging and are instead re-sold. All the boxes seem to be damaged slightly, which could be shipping or my other hypothesis.
Honestly I would rather find the knockoff versions of all of these. Identical build and identical quality, but usually like a quarter of the price. Most of my collection is off brands, which I'm perfectly happy with.
The TLG started by stealing the blueprints of a Kiddicraft plastic molding machine, then manipulating with patents, and the first Lego sets were complete copies of Kiddicraft sets, right down to the instructions. So, I wouldn't use the terms fake or not fake Lego. Some Chinese sets are far superior in quality and design to Lego sets and cost three times less.
The unreleased sets with paper bags could very well be European sets. They release at different times in different markets and, although I sadly haven't gotten any LEGO in almost a decade, the EU laws on single-use plastics could definitely be a reason for the paper bags. Even rice and sugar are now in paper packaging, and the plastic ones have a tax on them.
@@kaihuang7282 it's cheap and a scam, and the majority of the time you don't get what you paid for, if at all. There's a huge list of negatives I can get into
@@TheBrickQuest The only difference between real lego and knock off lego is literally just the lego icon printed on the blocks they are both just plastic bricks from china at the end of the day.
I expected to see some really unreleased sets from Lego, as fantastic as it might sound, like Indiana Jones 77014. That would be a surprise, but in any case, I'm glad, this buy was quite successful and brought joy of joys :)
Yeah, it’s actually pretty cool. Lego is an actual branded trademark seller on Temu like when you click on their link, it will say authenticated by Lego and then gives you the hyperlink directly to Lego like it’s Lego selling on Temu.
as a chinese if u buy from temu from foreign remember to double check the lego logo as some fake compakes will mark simular brand names and might also write "the photo is only used as example not the actual product" , so take care and be careful when buying stuff from chinese , also remember to take photos of tape before opening the box to show u changed nothing in case u might have to refund
Paper bags are normal, Lego is actually adding a legend to the sets saying "we are transitioning from plastic bags to paper bags" and some bla bla bla.
Yes the color of the kislux is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…
@@TheBrickQuest Well, of course I looked at it straight away because, to be honest, I have nothing against a bargain. But unfortunately I can't order anything
Paper bags vs plastic bags is that the machines that fill the bags are being replaced. Plastic bag == old machine. Paper bag == new machine. As old machines break replaced with new machine, not just fixed. Machines have a life expectancy/cost of maintennace.

From California here. Downloaded the temu app after watching this video. Searched but could not find any Lego sets for sale only the fake ones. Tried searching for the seller in your screenshots but nothing pops up. Good that I can save money but I am curious and would’ve liked to buy 1 set to try it out 😂
A little unknown fact about email as an original sign upper one of the first 10,000 you can submit a return claim for anything if you do not deem it good enough for you
So I just typed in LEGO and I sifted through all the fake listing until I saw real LEGO boxes pictured and then analyzed the listings. I’m not sure if it’s the same in Europe or not.
@@TheBrickQuest there's some listing that aren't avaible in the UK possibly Europe, can be quite annoying when your looking for something someone has posted.
okay lemme explain, the reason those "unreleased" sets only have the set number and not piece count is because they're from the european market. Every other year lego switches who gets the sets first, this year europe got those sets a month before the us, thats how temu got hold of them.
The fact you have damaged boxes is the give away, these would be right offs, not meant for resale, yes they could just repackage, but for some reason it's cheaper not to, so we'll done for some great bargains, just in case anyone is wondering, yes sometimes the accidental damage is done deliberately!
Great video and I really appreciate the to-the-point reporting on the purchases you made, I really don’t want to support Temu but I’m honestly tempted at these deals. Fantastic video, subbed.
Thanks! I agree. I wasn’t Interested in buying on TEMU either. I assumed everything was fake knockoffs. But if a store is going to sell real LEGO at a good price and do good business I can appreciate that and support the store while getting a good deal .
I understand LEGO is hugely expensive and often overpriced for a lot of consumers but I don’t believe Temu is the way to go when purchasing sets. It’s a dodgy Chinese company and there’s no trace to where these sets came from.
@@MasterK687 Lego is cheap to make. A 100 dollar set costs like 8 bucks to produce. They must be buying on huge bulks and probably are not very popular on Asia, so they sell em anythere else.
@@rnt__ Every legitimate company that sells LEGO anywhere in the world will buy in bulk so they have enough supply. There is no way LEGO would sell bulk sets to Temu a month early knowing they would charge 40% off day one with no guarantee that even box quality will be maintained. I suspect these LEGO sets were stolen.
Good question! That I’m not sure of. You’d have to try and see what it says. But that is along way for shipping so a good chance they could get damaged or messed with. Just be careful. By the way, I grew up in SA. Love it there!
I have bought many *building* toys from them. I have built a few of the huge cars 2000+ pieces. And then I just bought a 4400 piece titanic. The pieces are so small but amazing. Never bought the *lego* ones tho.
you saying that sets are not released only the ones you talking about have been released from july the 1 in europe. that way temu get them form the euro marked en sell them in US
That makes sense! They are unreleased here in the US so that make sense that they grabbed them outside of the country to sell them here. I’ve never seen that before which is kind of crazy.
@@miladon2977 good to know! So that’s probably how they did it. Got the sets from Europe and then sent them over to the US market where they are not released. Thanks for the info!
A lot of people don't know this, but these are typically from organized retail crime. Legos often used as a way to launder money through black market channels because it holds its value.
@@TheBrickQuest no we are in Germany. maybe it is an european Union law for reduction of plastic waste. And lego is a European company and have to follow that. I was also surprised because my youngest son start building some of the older sets with plastic bags and my oldest son start with his birthday presents. Was the first set that have this new bags.
@@TheBrickQuest LEGO is absolutely moving towards paper bags. I don't remember when they said, but we'll be seeing them more in the future. I bought the Van Gogh set recently and there was a small square printed insert in the box amongst the bags saying that they are moving to be more sustainable with their packaging and this box may contain a mix of plastic and paper bags. I got all plastic, but found the note card interesting. I'm in New York.
Comparing prices with the rip off Lego online shop is redicolous, especially if you just even mentioned at 0:30 there are massive discounts on Temu to compete with prime week. Nobody who can count to 10 compares non-exclusive sets with those "official" retail prices. The crane is at about 80€ on amazon Germany which is about 87 USD, so not really a deal. I didnt check the other prices but seems to be as unpromising as well. another weird thing is to have this typical US-biased view that it's not yet released - in the USA. Sure Lego is from Denmark, they produce in China and Europe, why should America be first. Its like Playstations and Nintendos are first released in Japan, then the US market and usually Europe and Australia at last. 🤔🤷♂
True. There is definitely a lot of risk. I thought for sure it was all going to be fake when I got it. I tried to cover my bases as much as possible though so I could get my money back if it did come fake.

Tried searching for the seller in your screenshots but nothing pops up. Good that I can save money but I am curious and would’ve liked to buy 1 set to try it out 😂
@@Modality that’s stinks. I havnt checked lately but maybe they are sold out.
Where are the sets can’t see them on temu site ???
I think they are only available in the US.
The August set is already available in Europe so it's possible for them to be real.
Ok cool! Thanks for the info
most sets on amazon germany have 30% discounts perpetually
That is awesome! Wish it was the same here.
where is the Link to purchase? I just searched and saw no Lego Brand just knock off.
Here is the link but proceed with caution! share.temu.com/Kh97vqe4RNA
A little unknown fact about email as an original sign upper one of the first 10,000 you can submit a return claim for anything if you do not deem it good enough for you
Wow! That’s good to knows. Thanks for the info. Crazy that you were one of the first 10,000!
What search terms did you use? I can’t find any LEGO sets
If your in the UK lego doesn't come up, some items are listed US only
@@robbiehales Mm I am currently in Europe. Do you think using a VPN could work here?
@@zennar1537maybe bro, could be the same across Europe, with giving it a try.
So I just typed in LEGO and I sifted through all the fake listing until I saw real LEGO boxes pictured and then analyzed the listings. I’m not sure if it’s the same in Europe or not.
@@TheBrickQuest there's some listing that aren't avaible in the UK possibly Europe, can be quite annoying when your looking for something someone has posted.
okay lemme explain, the reason those "unreleased" sets only have the set number and not piece count is because they're from the european market.
Every other year lego switches who gets the sets first, this year europe got those sets a month before the us, thats how temu got hold of them.
That’s what I was thinking but thanks for confirming! Too bad we can’t get the same sets here in the US till months later.
@@TheBrickQuest yeah its kind of a stupid system. But next year y'all will probably get sets a month before us xD
My wife got the Titanic Lego set off Temu and it's Lego without the Lego logo, that's it.
Nice! The LEGO Titanic is a great set!
In amazon india they are already out since weeks
I wish the US was that lucky. Lol
The fact you have damaged boxes is the give away, these would be right offs, not meant for resale, yes they could just repackage, but for some reason it's cheaper not to, so we'll done for some great bargains, just in case anyone is wondering, yes sometimes the accidental damage is done deliberately!
Interesting. That makes total sense. I was wondering how this was possible.
Damn... that is indeed cool.
Ya. I was surprised!
We get LEGO releases really slow in Australia. Months later than US. Thanks for taking the risk and showing us your findings!
Sorry to hear that. No problem. I was surprised to find the real LEGO!
Great video and I really appreciate the to-the-point reporting on the purchases you made, I really don’t want to support Temu but I’m honestly tempted at these deals. Fantastic video, subbed.
Thanks! I agree. I wasn’t Interested in buying on TEMU either. I assumed everything was fake knockoffs. But if a store is going to sell real LEGO at a good price and do good business I can appreciate that and support the store while getting a good deal .
I’ve searched for Lego but not one set is showing?
It looks like the actual Lego sets are being sold in the US only.
If the third on is un released it makes they have paper bags cause lego is going green w no plastic(well other than the pieces)
That makes sense! Thanks
I understand LEGO is hugely expensive and often overpriced for a lot of consumers but I don’t believe Temu is the way to go when purchasing sets. It’s a dodgy Chinese company and there’s no trace to where these sets came from.
tf you talking? you think China has no Lego? lmao
@@rnt__ of course China has LEGO but how are Temu selling it for such a low price?
@@MasterK687 Lego is cheap to make. A 100 dollar set costs like 8 bucks to produce. They must be buying on huge bulks and probably are not very popular on Asia, so they sell em anythere else.
@@rnt__ Every legitimate company that sells LEGO anywhere in the world will buy in bulk so they have enough supply. There is no way LEGO would sell bulk sets to Temu a month early knowing they would charge 40% off day one with no guarantee that even box quality will be maintained. I suspect these LEGO sets were stolen.
I will say though it does seem like LEGO will ripoff their customers as much as they can.
Lego got new box art and bags for climate so Thats Why the city set was different
Got ya! Thanks for the info!
Do you think I can get them shipped to SA??
Good question! That I’m not sure of. You’d have to try and see what it says. But that is along way for shipping so a good chance they could get damaged or messed with. Just be careful. By the way, I grew up in SA. Love it there!
@@TheBrickQuest by chance could you send me the link please?
I have bought many *building* toys from them. I have built a few of the huge cars 2000+ pieces. And then I just bought a 4400 piece titanic. The pieces are so small but amazing. Never bought the *lego* ones tho.
Cool! Good to know! I didn’t think they would have actual LEGO bricks on TEMU.
The ship set came from over seas. Most of their sets don’t have all the information like ours
Got ya! That makes sense. Thanks
I saw the lego cargo port for sail in a lego store in copenhagen two weeks ago so it has been released here
Awesome! I’ll be in Copenhagen next month. I wish all of us got these sets early.
Thanks! I thought they were all gonna be fake. Interesting.
I thought they would be fake as well! Very surprised!
you saying that sets are not released only the ones you talking about have been released from july the 1 in europe.
that way temu get them form the euro marked en sell them in US
That makes sense! They are unreleased here in the US so that make sense that they grabbed them outside of the country to sell them here. I’ve never seen that before which is kind of crazy.
some August sets seems to have already been released in EU since June
Awesome! Doesn’t seem to be happening too much over here for some reason. Hope you found some good sets!
I’m in the UK and I have the harbour set as it was released here on June 1
Awesome! I wish the US was that lucky.
i work at a lego store outside the us. those sets are already available lol
@@miladon2977 good to know! So that’s probably how they did it. Got the sets from Europe and then sent them over to the US market where they are not released. Thanks for the info!
Its already released on the 1st of June in my country, and I work at a lego store
Good to know! Thanks for the heads up! What country are you in?
Lego cargo set came early in Europe, in june and these new sets come with paper bags.
Good to know! Thanks for the info!
A lot of people don't know this, but these are typically from organized retail crime. Legos often used as a way to launder money through black market channels because it holds its value.
Is it the boxes or is th8s man insane the way he opens Lego boxes
I hope I’m not insane. 😂 I think it was just the boxes. They are making them different now.
That boat harbour set from your thumbnail is not unreleased, it is released in europe
Yes I looks like just unreleased where I live here in the US. Good call
Paper bags seems a newer approach from lego. My son get a star wars set for his Birthday with the new paper bags for the bricks.
it was the 75372 set. that should be an older set in the Star Wars collection but lego use the paper bags.
Interesting. Are you located in the US or another country? Just curious as to where these paper bags are being rolled out?
@@TheBrickQuest no we are in Germany. maybe it is an european Union law for reduction of plastic waste. And lego is a European company and have to follow that. I was also surprised because my youngest son start building some of the older sets with plastic bags and my oldest son start with his birthday presents. Was the first set that have this new bags.
@@TheBrickQuest LEGO is absolutely moving towards paper bags. I don't remember when they said, but we'll be seeing them more in the future. I bought the Van Gogh set recently and there was a small square printed insert in the box amongst the bags saying that they are moving to be more sustainable with their packaging and this box may contain a mix of plastic and paper bags. I got all plastic, but found the note card interesting. I'm in New York.
18+ sets like the Polaroid have piece counts in all markets
Good to know! Thanks
This is incredibly interesting. Great coverage!
Thanks! Trying something different with my LEGO shopping. 😂
wait this is unrealeased? My local shop already has em?
They are unreleased here in the US. Not sure if any other countries havnt got them yet.
most of these sets are being sold for these prices in europe on many legit platforms, its not that shocking tbh
Good to know! I wish we got these prices on the regular here in the US.
Can't believe you guys don't have those sets until August 1st had them in Australia for ages
I’m not sure why we don’t but that’s great for you all!
The reason why their is some paper bags is because Lego is trying to make their packaging more Environmental Friendly.
@@aidenayers2486 ok. Good to know. Thanks
Your welcomes.
Who are the sellers so we know who’s legit?!? Great video~!
Thanks! It’s from a store called TOYSMASTER. Here’s the link: share.temu.com/Ym7DWEiC7PA hopefully the store stays with real LEGO.
Sorry but this link does not work
W vid
👍
Yeah, it looks totally legit, that doesn't mean that it is
Even though this seems 100% real I'm still not going to buy temu
I understand! It is a risky platform to buy on. I purchased these more as an experiment.
Comparing prices with the rip off Lego online shop is redicolous, especially if you just even mentioned at 0:30 there are massive discounts on Temu to compete with prime week. Nobody who can count to 10 compares non-exclusive sets with those "official" retail prices. The crane is at about 80€ on amazon Germany which is about 87 USD, so not really a deal. I didnt check the other prices but seems to be as unpromising as well.
another weird thing is to have this typical US-biased view that it's not yet released - in the USA. Sure Lego is from Denmark, they produce in China and Europe, why should America be first. Its like Playstations and Nintendos are first released in Japan, then the US market and usually Europe and Australia at last. 🤔🤷♂
Just my thoughts on the order and buying from TEMU from the first time. An interesting purchase for sure!
This is not ture I guess, those sets are already released in Australia. I guess it's the same with other countries.
It’s unreleased here in the US so they must have brought it in from out of the Country it seems. Thanks for the info!
@@TheBrickQuest uh that's good info. thanks

I would never trust anything on Chinese marketplaces that claims to be LEGO, there is just too much risk of getting the fake stuff.
True. There is definitely a lot of risk. I thought for sure it was all going to be fake when I got it. I tried to cover my bases as much as possible though so I could get my money back if it did come fake.
