Great video dawg
Yo if you do another drop I'd def buy that, didn't even know about it till here. Plus I'd rather support the official designer and not a scamma
Bro got the 2D Clone Wars ARC Trooper fit.
woah youre the guy from the video, das crazy

Any lego starwars fan can be defeated by showing them the lego dreamzzz figure with the waistcape
Or Scarlet Witch in the new Avengers Tower set lmao
Or Ninjago movie Lloyd minifigure
@@ThehalfbrainedbeanWhat’s wrong with that figure?
How did you know my weakness
It's joever starwsrsbros
They collect LEGO for reselling while I collect it so my future kids think I’m cool. We’re not the same.
Goated mindset
Same.
And i collect so i can build mocs w my little brother that he (or us both) can have fun playing with.🗿
I have been told that half the reason my father had a kid was as an excuse to buy more Lego
Lol, i thought i was alone. I do the same thing
Republic bricks definitely gives off a “ do you know who my parents are? my dad is a lawyer “ energy
@@modernmedieval2312He scams people and threatens to sue them
He’s a preppy rich kid Trump supporter with no regard for anyone but himself

It would be a shame if people reported Timmy to the FTC for deceptive advertising
We honestly should at this point
Don't do that... until I buy a set first 😂😂
We should stop talking about it and actually do it
How many people did so so far?
if enough people do, will they act on it? and can he do anything about it?
' how did you create all these designs?"
"i didnt
I fucking love you

About a month ago, my younger brother (10 years old) said he was going to order a venator off of Republic Bricks (costing about 200 dollars I believe). I told him how Republic Bricks was a scam and that he shouldn't be supporting Timmy or his website. Even after I told him this, he said "I don't care". I think this PERFECTLY proves your point at 23:19 about how kids wont care about what Timmy does. I have since told my parents to not let him order anything from Republic Bricks, and my younger brother has not expressed buying anything from Republic Bricks since. Crisis averted?
Hopefully your bother now know to never buy from there
Has your brother been saving up for the real UCS Venator since? If so then I hope he enjoys the Venator, dodged a real bullet.
@@exhaustco I don't believe so, but I have told him I can try to find MOC instructions if he really wants a venator.
I'm sorry but brickmund is spitting out fax. Grow up dude, everyone can have their own opinions!
@@adamosborne3765 Dude wtf? I didn't even mention that section of the video at all.
The funniest sheet was this Lego SW youtuber who showed of his collection, continually said 'X set is bad, but I have to have all SW sets so I bought it anyway' over and over again. Absolutely killed me, what a chad consoomer.
Or they complain about battlepack only to unbox 25 of them in next video
@@nihili4196 "this is an absolute disgrace of a set, what was lego thinking?"
"hey guys, today we're going to be building a 332nd battle pack army out of 25 sets, and don't forget to visit my auction site!"
Yeah we have folks like that in the transformers community too. People whose names rhyme with befatron and respectivesend…
IM CONSOOOOMING
Such a great video man. I’m the dude he threatened to sue 😔I guess I started this whole thing 🫡
Wait I thought Ryan like you lol
@@DanielDelight2004 wydm?
Bro is a hypocrite
I'd be glad to start a class action against RB Timmy, we have grounds on every consumer right everything from False Advertising and Harassment. Which would lead to discovery and that's where the fun begins we will start with PCI most major company's like Hilton, Marriot, Walmart and McDonalds violate these rules.
so sad that you had to go through that, timmy is a loser squared
There was a RUclipsr named LifeofLego who used to attack and roast the hell out of clowns like Lifebricks and republicbricks but his account disappeared one day and I’ve never seen him again. Really good content.
I remember that channel I think he just stopped making videos. I don’t know what happened, but he stopped criticizing Lego RUclipsr.
Probably got sued
Mans Was Hilarious
If these bad apples could block on other websites and apps then I'm sure RUclips is next subscribers too
Ive actually had a few conversations with life bricks because one of my friends ususally has him on their streams and I remember asking him something like “why are you buying so many battle packs” and he told me something along the lines of “Well if you buy all of them lego will make more of them for other people” I didn’t really think about it at the time but after I watched your segment on him I realized how flimsy that excuse really is
Does he know how math works? If lego makes 100 lego sets and you buy all of them and they make 100 more there's still only 100 available
Yeah that doesn't make any sense 😂 if he bought all of them they would just restock what he bought they wouldn't put out more of them also after the restock he would buy everything once again because he can't help himself and he obviously doesn't really care
I thought this would be about how costly Legos are...
Instead it's a drama lore with adhd "jokes" and "memes" about topic that barely related to Lego at all.
Me2
It's always been expensive, but damn, they have been ramping up the prices fiercely these past few years, while some aspects of their production quality have even gone down.
It is a bit of a shame, Lego is my childhood.
And now they make sets that struggle to compare with competitors.
@@kiwwat4139it wasn’t always expensive, battle packs use to be 10 dollars, you would get bullied for liking legos back then. Sets were better priced. Some quality has gone down. I don’t collect much as an adult. The collection I have built as an adult I used my own money working for. I got sets all under 100 and bought loose figs online. I was doing it working jobs anyone can get with not the greatest hours. Still needed money for other stuff too. It’s just about being smart with your money. There’s a ton of great Lego sets for 20, or 30. Still and ik anyone with a job can afford that.
That is the crux of this problem
MandR isn't as bad as he used to be, going to your point at the end I think he has changed. It is annoying when he brings up helmet holes so much, but overall I think he's more neutral than negative. Sometimes pretty positive, actually.
In fact, he even praised the Obi-Wan versus Vader set from 2022 (which at the time of release nearly everyone hated). Most people would assume that his opinion is kinda the end-all-be-all for LEGO Star Wars, but him saying it was actually a fantastic set changed almost nobody's mind and the set continued getting a lot of hate. Just an example of when the community didn't "mindlessly follow" his opinion, as many people claim is always the case.
I don't watch LifeBricks too much, so I can't really say much to that, other than I think his investing advice borders on hilariously bad (I made a video touching on that a while back 'cause it's just not the best).
Republic Bricks, though, I completely agree. I've never been impressed with the quality of his builds when I've seen reviews on them, so never really wanted to buy any of his stuff anyways. But every time he's mentioned in a video the comments section lights up with people talking about how much they hate his business because it sucks more than anything they've ever seen before. Any inkling of a desire to maybe get something from him one day has been grounded up, set on fire and blasted into the stratosphere. Absolutely ZERO respect for RB.
Great comment
And RB is apparently homophobic as a nice little cherry on top
Eh
I agree with you that M&R's content isn't *universally* negative. He gives plenty of sets very positive reviews when they deserve it, and i appreciate that. The issue that I have, however, is that his content tends to *emphasize* the negative aspects of Lego Star Wars. While he acknowledges positive things, the overall narrative he pushes is that Lego hates its fans, that modern Lego clones are bad, and if you like them you just aren't as serious of a fan as him, and...it doesn't really get more negative then that.
As a result, I feel that M&R has created a culture of anger and bitterness in the fanbase as a whole, and has taught people that the only things worth talking about are the things we're unhappy with.
That's ultimately why I stopped watching M&R, and turned to Jangbricks instead for Star Wars reviews, because Jang is still very critical and calls out issues with sets, but doesn't try to incite anger and bitterness the way Ryan does.
@@8bitphilosopher286 Yeah, that’s a fair take. I do enjoy JangBrick’s content quite a bit just because it ALWAYS feels like a review (as opposed to partly review and partly engagement boosting).
I remember commenting on one of mandr’s post just saying “bro went wah wah wah all the way home.” I got blocked within like 3 minutes lmfao
My guy 😂😂
You should get a world record for that
I knew something was up when M&R was one of the only channels saying positive things about Republic Bricks
Yeah Tyler as well
I know they're friends, and he reviews builds sent to him by Republic Bricks, but he always shits on them for being flimsy and falling apart.
They’re friends and he gets copies for free, he isn’t going to be brutally honest but he does also point out the noticeable things
@@LordShrublol I didn’t even know abt rebublic bricks expect from Ryan shittin on there sets. They always did seem like a scam charging as much as they do for absolute dog shit is insane
Finally somebody actually brings up that ugly and gaudy logo Republic Bricks puts on the back of his figs. I bought from him a decent bit before finding everything out. I think another issue is that he refuses to get any better. In quality, as a person he’ll always just be like that. He’s been doing UV printing for years and you think for a guy that posts his order list like a money spread you’d go to pad printing.
I mean the least republic bricks could do, is decent UV printing. Some huge companies do it, always have and did, but got so good with it from their printer or producer partner it is nearly as good looking as pad print or whatever.
Pad printing is so much better than uv it’s actually crazy
@@ionobrucrazy more expensive too
@@lebenlarge5282 it ain’t even too bad
@@ionobru what buying a pad printer? thats like 12k vs 40k XD
Appreciate yah calling out these dorks and their shenanigans. Your channel has been a breath of fresh air to the lego dialogue online
Yeah it’s definitely nice
What RUclips rabbit hole did I stumble upon
Welcome
You are one of the best lego youtubers alongside jangbricks and nickonplanetripple imo and even though you have made like 6 lego videos.
I thought this would talk about the astronomical prices which kids cannot imagine to pay.
That was my first Lego vid
Not to mention one thing, but he could 100% be accused of blackmail due to leaking public information he got through transactions. Idk how it is in the US, but that information is private and can't be used publicly.
I might try to file legal action against him for that
Goated video. Ngl I’ve been really turned off from the Lego community for the past 5 years. I’m friends with Colton (Just a kid that rants) and defended him when Ryan threatened him. Colton isn’t online as much anymore, but I can give you some more information about what happened if you’re curious.
I heard about that. What ended up happening?
i’m curious
Colton, who was 15 at the time, had made a few videos criticizing Ryan and a few other creators in the Lego community. In one of his videos, he made a distasteful joke about decapitating Ryan. Ryan took it out of context and made it sound like an actual death threat, and subsequently threatened to send the police to Colton’s house. How he obtained his address is still a mystery.
Ryan later sent Colton a cease and desist letter (which was a self-made Google Doc instead of an actual legal notice) saying he would press charges because Colton was supposedly harassing him and defaming his character. Ryan never followed through with legal action.
Thank you for talking about Republic Bricks!! I remember MnR would always sponsor him and he always seemed a little shady…
The crazy thing is Timmy's mom used to be one of my elementary teachers and he had come into our class one time to show off his lego star wars collection and plug his youtube channel. This was around 2017, so I think he was still in highschool. It's crazy to think about how much he's changed for the worst, kind of like what Cosmonaut said at the end of his video. I wonder if his mom knows what he's currently doing with his career and thinking about that truly saddens me because she was my favorite elementary school teacher, sweet but strict. Too bad she seems to not have been strict enough with Timmy.
Unfortunately, I cannot disclose many more details just for the sake of keeping my and Timmy's family's personal information safe. I also don't want details to be used against timmy to threaten him.
You're youtube account is literally your name. You've already leaked your personal info...
Maybe contact his family? False advertising is illegal, you might convince his family about the Severity of his (basically criminal) actions
I honestly didn't expect to watch the entire 38 minute long video but I got very hooked from the beginning to the end and I'm very thankful that you covered these topics. Thank you my good sir for speaking out about this and sharing. I also see how much time and effort you put into the editing making every second unique. I got most of the references and the quotes were hilarious in many ways. Some people build up their lives on glory, fame and greediness but they never learn from their mistakes and it's what I've seen with many people both inside and outside of the Lego community. I hope you'll continue to grow and I feel you're a very underrated commentary channel. Keep posting and don't give up brother. 👍
Skales!!?!?!??!??!?!?!!?!?!?!
It's genuinely harder to find positive feedback on timmy's business than it is to find stories of his terrible customer service
Lmao seeing big lego creators complain about not getting sets they want like this is hilarious. Like just build it yourself?? Isnt that the point of Lego?
Couldn't agree more! It's not like video games where you legitimately can complain about missing features and designs bc your not gonna be able to easily code the changes in yourself usually. However with lego if they didn't do something you wanted with a set, welp just do it yourself lol
They're narcissists who got RUclips fame and now thing they can bully the Multi-Billion dollar toy company into giving them exactly what they want.
I used to be a fan of Mandr because I used to see the dude was genuinely passionate about his hobby, even making content cop style videos calling bad actors in the community, it is sad to see someone who was passionate become the thing he criticized.
So…he has become the very thing he swore to destroy?
I watched some of the reviews MandR did, and when I saw the RepublicBricks "UCS" Turbo Tank one, I knew to avoid the guy. It was basically the 2008 turbo tank tiled over. Just screamed lazy
timmy always been creepy looking to me bruh
Skin walker vibes
If imposter syndrome was a person
finally someone who doesn't endlessly meat ride mandr
"my brother in christ youre 30" AHAHHAHAHAHAHA
I luv u
A few years ago, I bought republic bricks brick head obi wan and the Jango fett slave one with Kamino pad… The total parts were around 900 pieces. I spent almost $200! And while yes the slave one was preordered It released a month after I ordered it I never got it until a whole year later and even then I was missing pieces and the instructions were ass
Tyler’s bricklink store is horrendously over priced. Like man is selling Kama for clones, for 8 fucking doll hairs
These people didn't even make graduation and that's honestly the worst part
life bricks definitely didn’t with what he does
Or move out lol
amazing as always, but this long form with video with clearly so much hard work put in is fantastic. so glad I found you, consistently producing great work and shining a light on necessary topics. much love as always
no way chii-chan is talking about lego thats awesome
I’ve been blocked by mandr a total of three times for simply stating my own opinion about plastic in his comment section
Maybe that’s a good thing lol
@@SKYREN17it actually is

@@GregMFM grigory?
@@thecosmonaut4221 oh no also propierty design im just saying thats specifically the one i did, also great vid finished it now
I’m so glad someone is speaking out on this! The worst part with a lot of the bad actors, is they’ve bullied other LEGO review channels off of RUclips because they [reasonably] don’t want to blow hundreds of dollars on LEGO every month.
I remember watching lego star wars stop motion animations in 2007... why is the lego community like twitter now?
I think Solid Brix Studios its also one of the good lego sw channels, he isnt (as far as I know) greedy and all, he seems like he still has that solid passion for lego. Just mentioning it bc u didnt and I think its worth mentioning him
I really enjoy Brick Master Harry's videos.
He's a scumbag though lmao. Dude is the biggest Lego butt kisser of all time. He also lied about Lego sending him sets for free which is highly illegal
My only issue with solid bricks is he runs “minifigs 4 u” where he also kind of seems to copy popular clone makers/ do less quality for same or higher prices than say CAC or GCC or even Av figures who do way better work with their custom figures.
Kinda miss when Lego was more lowkey back in the early 2000s. I remember just watching Lego stop motion videos and that’s about it really. I’m mainly into Lego because I want to build my own collection to display in the future and eventually get into stop motion when I have time.
Been waiting for a video like this for a long time, funny enough I had compiled a lot of info on other individuals and situations that took place in the community over a year ago and had planned to make a video similar to this one day, taking the time to make something like this was really needed, really great job!
I hit do not recommend channel with these guys, and they still pop up in my searches. The big Lego RUclipsrs are not in it for the enjoyment of the hobby. Great video
this video has unironically changed my life. it will show
Oh shit, hey man I’ve been watching your channel for years and I find it amazing you took the time to watch my dumb video! Thanks!
But how did my shit post of a video “change your life” 😭 lol would like to know in what way
Using the pippa clip makes sense
I’m so glad you know the clip in question lmao
I have the feeling most of the people who get mad about LEGO not making the set they want don’t realize you can make the set yourself.
I'm not sure about MandR.As some other people have said he has definitely taken a shift over to the more neutral part of the scale. His main problem is that he has a definite bias against Lego due to some questionable actions against him in the past and also his harsher mindset towards the prequel sets, specifically clones .As you can see in his videos he generally is much more critical about the clone minifigures than others. Overall these factors make him somewhat overreact about the clone trooper figures and other aspects of Lego.He does have good reviews however they have a, while less so than the past, heavier focus on the negatives than most .If you want a truly neutral reviewer for star wars sets both Jangbricks And Solid Brix Studios generally have much more balanced content highlighting both the positives and the negatives, though Solid Brix Studios would be the more "biased" of the two as unlike Jang, he receives sets from the LAN program. Republic Bricks and Life Bricks are both bad with the former being a full blown scam artist and the latter using giveaways dangled in front of fans as a way of gaining popularity.Overall while all three mentioned in the video have their flaws I'd say MandR is definitely the least bad out of the three.
I wish my house had a room with a bluegrass band preinstalled in it
This video makes me glad that I never put too much stock into any content creator. I just watch their videos for entertainment or in curiosity. I still watch videos from MandR and LB, though it's mostly to see what SW sets would be retiring in the near future and what Lego news could be trickling down the pipeline. Never really saw either of them as the be-all-end-all for the Lego SW community. Of the three, I always saw RB as the most egregious based on his behavior and his shady business model, but he's not really unique when it comes that type of person being in the collector/toy/figure hobbies.
Honestly I just want more Bionicle stuff...Not even sets; like Merch, Books maybe more serials. I LOVED the Tahu set and love the Bioincle easter eggs they put in their sets lately! I just really like Bionicle and feel like it became something of its own...as In I sometimes forget "Oh yeah Bionicle is a LEGO theme" its so unique and cool.
Being a pay pig to Lego and Disney at the same time may be the lowest form of existence
This guy doesn't miss.... great video mate
No way you saw my shit post of a video lol thanks for the words
Tbh, if a person is making a video about buying 40 battlepacks their whole character should be in question
and here I thought Lego's biggest problem was the focus on licensed sets for adults sold at a premium price (with lowering brick quality, brittle brown anyone), thus alienating a younger demographic that will not grow up with the same fondness for the brand and not become adults ready to spend stupid amounts for a giant spaceship.
Thanks for a great video, I like all throughout. Sad to see things like this happening, especially in Lego community
I used to watch MandR. I don't anymore for his constant complaining.
that's not what a grifter is
I didn't think plastic building toys would be more wild than the black market but here we are.
Great video, great editing. Commenting to boost the video in the algorithm.
...what the *fuck* with him being so proud of suing children.
I hope all of Lego RUclips see this
Go share it around
As a Tennessee resident, I can confirm that we do have those room in our houses, each and every single house.
I knew it
I once bought a set from republic bricks and it took 2 months for me to get it which was a bummer as I had forgotten about it by then.
Yo I can’t find republic bricks RUclips anymore? Did he delete it
Really?
@@thecosmonaut4221 yeah I looked him up and all I found was an old channel with only 9k you should make a video on it!
I ordered 3 sets during his black Friday sale from last year & still haven’t received anything
Really?
im so happy i'm not a starwars fan. In fact i hate lego SW that much - just troopers and piles of grey bricks and investors/drama.
Feels good to be a pure lego fan.
Great Video! Glad to see more people are realizing how shady his business is. (And how he tries to sue people including me lol). This is by far the best video on this subject I've seen.
I watch Ryan the most of any lego RUclipsrs, jangbricks probably second most, but the videos you make are great. Well edited, opiniated (but that's your right), and pretty funny and informative. Ive purchased stuff from mandr's shop/whatnot, and have gotten good stuff, actually saving money in some cases due to bulk buying foilpacks, but republicbricks I got multiple mystery bags and got those mini boardgame figures instead of anything good. If you're gonna be a reseller/custom set seller, at least make it worth it darn you
i have done research and apparently the republic bricks mystery boxes all come with the cheapest thing the box could have, so if you do plan to get one again, see if the cheapest set in the box is more or less expensive than the mystery box so you know what to get
Hehehe glad to see im not the only one who feels this way about the three stooges. Good work on the video i cant understand why you dont have more subscribers.
If I got threatened with a lawsuit like that kid, even at his age, I would have been like “Do it, I dare you. I double dare you. Try and sue me. You don’t have the balls.”
I’ve been on RUclips since 2007 and seen Lego reviews change tremendously as time has gone on. When in doubt of all these other channels remember JangBricks has you covered
I think that not blurring the username of the guy at 6:45 was a bit of a stretch when it comes to the manner of quoting a random commenter (he might get sent death threats or something); and using a clip from a video showing his face and all is taking that to another level, especially because it brings nothing of purpose to the video. But what do I know, maybe I interpreted that wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Girls last tour moment
Not him saying he would 100% win a lawsuit when claiming defamation. Literally one of the hardest lawsuits to win. You have to be able to prove that someone is lying with the knowledge that they are lying
Thanks for the heads up, ironically never heard of any of these chaps but I'm 43, live in the UK and couldn't give a toss about social media or they're all now being investigated. Either way good vid and does that dude shave his legs??
Lego star wars youtubers when a 30 dollar episode 4 set doesnt come with 6 clone trooper figures: 😡😡😡😡
Hate dare Lego not listen to the fans
4:31 in defence of that guy. He was calling out comments on his videos and debunking them.
His video basically said ‘no they aren’t gatekeeping’ because people spammed his comments with “”LEGO ARE GATEKEEPING FIGURES””
Very well thought out and put together, loved how you called him “Barnacle Boy”. Got a few chuckles outta me. I sub now
Excellent video! I used to watch MandR and some LifeBricks, but moved away because they just really started to rub me the wrong way (luckily never watched or bought anything from Republic Bricks). I'm glad to see that others have come to the same realization that these are bad actors are not good for the community, your mental health or your wallet. I mostly just watch JangBricks now because his criticisms (and compliments) are much more fair and he seems to actually be really passionate about Lego rather than using it for clout and reselling.
SOUP MENTIONED RAHHHHHHHH LETS GO
What's wrong with pointing out when lego is cheaping out or being pressed by executives to push out stale product? A youtuber "bullying" a multibillion dollar corporation is the funniest shit I've heard.
Because we are aware when Lego screws up, like getting some figures innacurate printing for example or some unfair prices. But these RUclipsrs make it look like having a flaw on a figure makes the entire set the worst thing in the world
I got a decent amount of Lego star wars sets just sitting in storage containers in my basement wouldn’t ever dare give them to these gremlins
Great video, this slimy corner of the LEGO community needs to be exposed more often. I appreciate all the Bocchi the Rock background footage
So Republic bricks bad, and Brick vault good?
Yeah and more professional about their business only BV is a pdf file so you order parts on your own I believe, but I'd watch reviewers who have bought from BV if you'd want to give them a try. But seems like BV is a better supporter of the moc community unlike RB.
"Leave the multibillion dollar company alone!"
my friend got scammed by republic bricks to! he payed 200 dollers for a ucs set and got to atrt's which were not even listed as one of the options!
I think the thing that upsets me the most is the service aspect and his conduct personally, its just unprofessional and underserving
The algorithm recommended this. Hopefully, it will reach more Lego fans soon. And finally, someone who agrees with me and doesn't bend the knee to these jerks. I've stopped watching most of them ever sense the holesin helmets delema. Still watch Mnr for leaks and early set reviews, but the rest of his content is less desirable to watch, to say the least.
Heads up to the white knights that might be coming. Watch the video and pay attention. Don't attack your fellow lego comrades over someone telling you to.
I want to say you are right but that bitterness towards people wanting clone wars stuff is actually stupid, you do realize that era used to get ignored a lot and we somehow get as much dumb ot/ahsoka stuff despite having less content, then there is also how lego puts less effort into the set and so on
Bitterness? That’s not what I was trying to come off as at all lol I’m sorry if you interpreted it as such
The topic of Lego’s declining standards is a topic for another month my friend
@@thecosmonaut4221 i mean the whole video is pretty good, it just seemed as if them wanting clone wars set bothered you
@@gabriels9919 yeah not my intentions and I have something written up for my thoughts on Lego as a Brand
11:56 i love that photo , glad you used it
LEGO should stop making Star Wars sets just for one calendar year to get rid of all of these guys.
My favorite Legos star wars creator now is FiveLonelyClones
Yeah, I discovered him a few months ago, and he is genuinely quite awesome!
I can excuse the scamming and threats, but I draw the line at not understanding the plot of the Sodom and Gomorrah arc.
The good thing about this is I don't know about other people but I want to be more creative and love my official Lego sets more
I live in the same state as life brick and run into him occasionally and he straight up just swipes all of the shelves when they stock them. If you see him you better book it to the next store just grab the one single set you want. Hope he wasn’t already there.
i dont really know the american law but i guess you could contact some stores to tell them about him . Most wouldnt care because he still buys but maybe some will ban him from buying or keep stock to put it back in place after the swipe . It could also be put into unfair competition i guess . Buying everything at a discount and reselling it back more than the full price is not legal anywhere i believe , especially when the company put a fixed price in place
I have not watched MandR for long but he doesn't seem as bad as you say like he just calls out Lego for being bad with some products and reviews other sets and says how Lego did something better several years ago than now like with the orange clone troopers and how Lego was doing false advertisement with the 501st battle pack with the one with the antena, those are some examples of him calling lego out for being bad and I don't know about the other 2 people only like the guy with the beard he is pretty cool because he tells us sets that got leaked as fast as possible
Lol i said i disagreed with him on the helmet holes fiasco and he blocked me. Mandr is a manchild. If all he cared about was lego making a good product he wouldent constanly block anyone who disagrees with him. He just has a jupiter sised ego and the personality of a butthurt manchild
Yeah like Ryan is more than fair to Lego when it comes to reviewing, most sets he reviews gets above an 8/10 he’s just critical of their practices which we should all be.
Ryan "mand r productions" is the reason i stopped keeping up with lego star wars, aside from a general disinterest in whatever starwars itself is doing these days, ryan would just find the best way to make every new starwars thing miserable. I now follow jacob "CheesyStudios" who in my opinion has the best content talking not about new stuff but old lego things too
Cathartic watching someone with an audience call out mandr and lifebricks
Alright I won’t lie, I always randomly come back to Lego Star Wars stuff just because of how much I loved it as a kid. And like you said, MNR gets recommended the most so I see his stuff. I’ve binged it just because I like the background noise lol, but I had noticed the way he acts is weird when it comes to stuff within the sets or stuff with the clones. And now after watching this… I get it! This was a very funny thing to stumble upon, thanks for enlightening me on these bad actors. Your content seems pretty alright!
