so a bunch of season 3 sets got leaked. i can't post for copyright ofc but they shouldn't be too hard to find online. That Mateo car colour scheme looks so cool!
TLG (The Lego Group) commonly plans out these themes of theirs for three years/seasons ahead. In actuality, it had been exactly the same with Ninjago back in the day; it got even temporarily *cancelled (or rather 'not renewed') for a year before someone at TLG did the math and the theme then returned after the hiatus for a fourth season and is, of course, with us to this very day. * - Its replacement was actually the Legends of Chima.
Personally I think the theme’s really resonating with the aimed for younger demographic. I’ve talked with a surprising amount of kids at my job who have actually watched and loved the show, so I’m gonna hold out hope because I also enjoy this theme a lot!
@DDLCman1117 I mean, that’s what you’ve seen, but for the most part, on my side of the internet, the worst I’ve see talked about Dreamzzz is just “it’s ok, just not for me”. Plus, again, in my real life experience talking to kids (my job works with them a lot), I’ve personally talked to a bunch who absolutely love Dreamzzz, so I think, while it might have mixed reactions with older crowds, the kiddos (the target demographic) are a slam dunk. This is all my own personal experience. Not to mention the ratings from S1 to S2 have only gone up, so the theme is objectively improving as it goes along.
@@angelmusic6147I was a kid In the chima demographic days. Chima resonated with me a lot, I would ask my dad for chima over Star Wars or DC without a thought. I can believe Dreamzzz is pretty popular with kids
@@LucaCattozzo S2 also touches on themes of death, but also dives into some pretty mature topics for your average kids show. Parental abandonment (Zoey and Beau along with Izzie and Mateo with their mom), learning to accept a parent dating again (Jasmine), healing from grief (Zoey as well as the Never Witch), not to mention the implications that Cooper’s home life is bordering on abusive, if not just actually abusive. Also the fact there was a plotpoint where one character was brainwashed into trying to actively kill his best friend (Logan and Izzie in the doom-dome). Also, I’m not just talking about the show being “for kids” when I say it’s getting better as it goes, the season and episode ratings are getting higher as you go into S2, so it’s clear the general consensus among viewers is that things are improving for the better with the show.
I swear this series better not fail. I miss the old days where Lego did their own original series instead of only making ideas sets to pander to adults. This series is the first original in a long time, and it might be my favorite they’ve ever done: encouraging creativity and rebuilding is what Lego is all about, and this series does it in a wonderful and playful way.
I think everyone hopes for a time when they actually start making new orginial themes again. The Golden Age of Lego was when the only non-original thing they had was Star Wars.
I hear ya buddy. I’ve always wanted the mixels sets but never got a single one before they were discontinued. Now I have to go buy the individual parts just to get each one
I loved the ghost hidden side sets but it seems others didn't :( and then monkey kid is a crime, I never see it advertised in the lego catalogs or sets in my local stores yet it has good sets and a fantastic cartoon
I don't expect another Bionicle, but I most certainly expect another Hero Factory, Monster Fighters or Dino 2010, something that doesn't try to be all crazy and lore heavy but still super fun and something everyone of all ages can get into
The prices of the bigger sets detered me (The small sets were quite decent tho). Its not the fact they're pricey, but it needed good value to get me into it
I work at a Toys R Us in Canada, and unfortunately Dreamzzz really doesn’t sell that well at all. It has a massive section in our store, but nothing moves. I have to dust the boxes cause they don’t even get moved.
LEGO Dreamzzz had a niche until LEGO made the Fortnite sets this year. I think fans of quirky, colorful builds will shift to the IP they know rather than the one that’s unfamiliar.
I think this theme got a shot at being big but i feel like they should make less expensive big sets cuz large amount of parents will not gonna buy them for their 7-10 year old children
I think where Dreamzzz went wrong was by releasing such a big first wave with a ton of different characters. If they had started off with a smaller wave in April or May focusing on just Mateo, Izzie, and the Night Hunter, and then released a bigger August wave with sets for Cooper, Zoey, Mr. Oz, etc., and bringing forth the Nightmare King as the theme's big bad, it probably would've been much less overwhelming. Honestly it's a problem most Big Bang Themes had: Chima introduced 6 Tribes at once, Nexo Knights introduced 5 initiates at once, Ultra Agents had a lot of generic-feeling heroes... you get my point. Personally I love LEGO Dreamzzz. It came out right as I was exiting my LEGO Dark Age, and it's gotta be my favorite original theme since Chima. I'm hoping against hope that LEGO will keep Dreamzzz around for a while longer to explore more new ideas and come up with a memorable climax that will make fans adore it for years to come. Unfortunately, I can't ignore the writing on the wall - between the mediocre show and dropping sales numbers. If Dreamzzz does become the next checkmark on Ninjago's hitlist next year, I just hope it goes out with a bang.
There’s a lot of high priced sets. That’s my main issue, all the cool stuff seems to be in $80+ sets. I’m waiting for the theme to have a sweet $50 ish priced set so I can get something substantial to try the theme without putting in too big of an investment.
In Turkey, only friends and DreamZZZ sets gets a clearance discount. Other themes doing fine. Will pickup either crow or nightmare ship when i have money for it
I feel like 1 year is a good guess. The current state of Dreamzzz kind of reminds me of Power Miners before the last wave of that theme. RIP Power Miners.
Even though I've not bought any of the sets (i have no space left on shelves after too much Ninjago) I have to say that the story here is really interesting and well done. even the show. when I head the Matteo was being voiced my MACRO of all people (he's a really cool content creator) and this was his first ever role? I was unsure. but honestly? he's nailing it. I'm really enjoying his performance. even if the series doesnt stick around long. I think it did a good job in telling a good story. with some really cool and imaginative sets. something that helps make lego awesome.
Im considering getting the t-rex or big z-blob mech so I could 'have a taster' of the theme whilst having builds based of things I like (JP, ninjago etc)
Personally, I always felt the show never seemed to use the dream setting to its fullest potential. In the first episode, they show off a couple dream creations never seen again, and the show lacks seasonal gymmicks, unlike other shows. They show off the Crocodile Car only once or twice, despite it and the idea of Tandem Dreamcrafting having potential.
If I was a kid still I would have gone crazy over the adult set releases of today, always felt LEGO sets were too simple back in the day, but still I feel it is important for LEGO to have original sets with more play features, from orgiginal IP:s!
Some lego dreamzzz sets are bangers, even bought them without watching the show, the turtle bus, the tree and the new raven and the witch, and the T rex ones are visually awesome.
As a kid I liked getting classic castle, space starting from blacktron 2, aquasharks, pirates, even paradisa sets (loved the pastel colours) and still own all of my childhood sets. I remember seeing the Time Cruisers sets revealed and found them to be offputting nonsense. All the themes I loved were simple concepts and made sense. I see Dreamzzz sets and it reminds me of time cruisers and it's offputting to me for the same reasons so I can imagine kids feeling this way because, I did, as a kid. It's just random "stuff" with no logic or structure. The Monster Pirate Ship is the only set that I found really cool, everything else I wouldn't spend a penny on. LEGO can't seem to shake off the idea that original themes need to be "weird" and "whacky" like the ill-fated Vidiyo or Hidden side.
The problem with lego is the cost for a big piece count set. If they offered customers with an option to order online to just get the pieces they could make sets so much cheaper. I could care less about a box lol. They could even workout a deal with Amazon to make these types of sets exclusive and sell them cheap. Unfortunately lego has a reputation of wasting their money.
Okay, I watched all season on Netflix, my thoughts: season one was about matoe becoming an "aware dreamer"( because of that mateos siblings and friends can be an aware dreamer) and defeating the nightmare king. Season 2 was about Mateo, Izzy, Zoey, cooper, and Logan trying to defeat the Never Witch in one or more ways. I may not have watched every frame or heard every voice line but there are theories that I can come up with: 1. Matoe can use Lunia's Hourglass and we can see that Matoe's mother is gone, and Lunia is gone around the same time, so does that mean Lunia is Mateo's mother? 2. the nether Never Witch can take away memories from people, Ninjago dragons rise when the ninja finds Jay, and he loses all his memories, how? We are gonna need to watch the next season, but maybe there is a crossover(between Ninjago Dragons Rising and Dreams). I know that some people are gonna correct me, or tell me something I might have missed, so please do that, I appreciate that. Thank you
Something we all need to know is that the TV show and the sets are very different things. The TV show is in my opinion terrible, at least if you compare it with Ninjago and Monkie Kid, I feel like every episode is boring and nothing really happens. About the sets though, the sets are pretty great because the sets are unique models we don’t really see in any other Lego theme. The sets has some great instruction art and the fact that you can build the set in different ways is also pretty cool. We can also see how the Lego group is going all in with this theme, we are getting new Dreamzzz seasons faster than Ninjago seasons and we get dual molding and side printing on most Dreamzzz minifigures as well. I do not know where Lego is going with their Lego Dreamzzz theme but it will probably fall soon because Ninjago is just better. Thanks for reading sorry that I made it this long but I had to speak.😅
Just got the Narwhal set at my Walmart and it was $15.97 here in the US. All that was on the shelves besides that was the Z-Blob set, I couldn’t find a single one of the bigger sets. Really wanted that Turtle Van, the dinosaur, or the nightmare shark.
1:11 i have never seen or heard of this set im finnish and we have in our stores pretty big selection of dreamzzz sets and i have never heard and seen this set this is weird that the new theme has already a forgotten set
I think with their original lines Lego is really trying to net the younger child market as their other themes like Star Wars trend more and more to adults - I think most of their sales are now adult collectors and so they use Dreamzzz to try and appeal to children and still have a stake and relevance in children's toy sales
Weirdmageddon, but its every set, and some of them are just Mabel's wacky child brain like the bunny on roller skates, you have to admit though that the villain sets are decent
I dont like the TV show, but the sets are amazing, not all but most of them. Chima and Nexo Knights, i loved to watch (i also have all Chima DVDs), and the sets, but i dont have that many
You know Lego theme would rule internationally. Lego super Sentai or Lego ultraman. Think about it, this is any easy way to make use of the old molds for bionicle parts
I think the molds for CCBS and the old Bionicle parts are actually scrapped, like gone (which sucks, but bringing it back would be Hella expensive) but I agree we are missing an anime or tokusatsu esc Kaiju vs Mecha theme, its perfect for Lego since they love doing mechs and monsters
Honestly, it is gonna depend on how much LEGO is gonna invest into this theme, and may depend if children are ever gonna still enjoy it. But let’s face it, out of all the franchises LEGO has, Ninjago is the *behemoth* of them all!
there's no beating ninjago.the writers of the show went above and beyond.zane's sacrifice against overlord alone probably made them more money than some of their failed projects
I hope that Dreamzzz can at least last long enough to have a long story like Chima because I’m still taunted by Mateo x Zoey which they still need to make happen
I grew up with Ninjago and Dreamzzz just doesn’t feel like something I would like watching at my age. Meanwhile with Ninjago I can turn it on without feeling like im watching something a 7 year old would. I watch what I like I but Dreamzzz just isn’t hitting.
I think the dreams sets look rlly cool but I’ve only ever watched a episode of it but I do hope it becomes successful as hopefully Lego will release more original ideas:)
I quite like the designs and the changeable nature of the models a classic lego set feature is interchange parts. I dont own many myself yet but some of the figures and animal pieces are very nice
The biggest issue i see with dreams is that it is cluttered as a concept for sets rather than the 3 in 1 children's sets. The antaganist sets are the most consistent of them.
I like The Series and the Sets are cool I don't think it's failing but maybe we'll get more Crossover Specials like we got with Ninjago but I don't know if it's confirmed if Season 3 is the last season tho? I guess we'll just have to wait and see
I picked up the Dreamzzz sets as they work in a fantasy world, also my nephew's have fun with the Crocodile car that I gave them. The older nephew is getting the Nightmare ship for Christmas and the younger nephew is getting the 3 in 1 Pirate ship. Since there is very limited castle this gives me the fix. Also the fir sale prices in the US are not as steep from what I have seen.
Imagine this show becomes a new multi-year Lego success. That would probably be great for Lego and would convince them to start making their own themes again. This would be fine as long as they don’t mess with the legend itself and their most popular continuing oc, Ninjago. Imagine a love-action Dreamzzz movie… 💀
I'm someone in the US, and, until this video I had never once heard of this theme. So it's safe to say this could be failing, due to the lack of reach Lego is trying to do for this theme. (( And I'm unironically heavily biased towards Ninjago, as I've been watching that since the Pilot episodes. ))
I was a big Lego Chima fan and got a bunch of the ancient beasts sets from Chima's second wave. But I've seen this before. I haven't gotten any new sets in a while, nor do I plan to get anymore, except Bionicle type sets from 10 years ago. I'm especially planning to get those Lego Chima ultrabuilds alsi from about 10 years ago. But I know when a set is awesome, unique, and absolutely fun to build. But Lego Dreamzzz's nightmare boat, turtle van, spacebus, cool race cars, robo knight, and cat motorcycle sets are really temping, not gonna lie. But I saw this happen to Lego Chima. I thought they had a fantastic thing going for them but they still had a relatively short life span. I'm giving Lego Dreamzzz 1 in a half, to 2 more years. But their sets are without a doubt going to stay as huge standouts among modern Lego sets.
I'm 30 now but I found this theme really cool in its design and premise and have been collecting them. I'll be a little sad if it does fail but I think my wallet might be more thankful!
I don’t really pay attention to dreamzz which I guess is why I never knew that minifig “puffy vest” accessory got created, but I need one in red for my Marty mcfly fig lol
There's a few themes that I think are good that I personally don't have any interest in, except if I can use the set, prints, or pieces for other things. Like Harry Potter, I bought 2 Aragog sets for a potential dragon age moc. The problem I have with this theme is that while it's fun and creative, it's almost too whimsical for me to get any use out of.
i've seen some sets in legoland.they looked pretty cool,because the colours were a lot more vibrant then in previous series,but i decided to see what the show's about first
I personally love the Lego dreamzzz sets, and so does my 4 year old. I think it’s very reminiscent of what Lego is truly about, building whatever your imagination can dream up. (No pun intended)
I’m an AFOL & love Dreamzzz, and my son loves playing with my sets (he’s mostly a Minecraft/Ninjago/Jurassic Park fan). I think it’s a really great but unfocused theme which feels like it has struggled to find its audience - it’s constantly deep discounted. Strongly suspect it’ll wind down in 2025.
DreamZzz interests me but I haven't got too many DreamZzz sets, I've found the sets to be a bit hit or miss; there's some I like and some I don't, I like the Elves-like Dream Village and Magical Creature Stables but haven't bought them yet
i honestly hope that Dreamzzz lasts as an original lego theme, not as a show, but i still hope it lasts, it reminds me of some older themes, and makes me miss these sets that will usually have 2 in 1 type sets and builds, and honestly the sets are pretty cool/cute and have really unique sets and introduce new molds (such as the puffy vest piece) and pieces in different colors which is great for customization for minifigs and other builds
If they had some cheaper villain sets, I'd definitely try and get them. As it is, the location builds are definitely going to become the basis for mocs If it does fail, I hope it doesn't take another good colour with it like Nexo Knights and Hidden Side before it. Most places are selling the nightmare creatures set for less so I may well buy it.
I quite like the theme. The first wave of sets was great (there are only 2 or so sets that I didn't like and got only for completion). The second smaller wave was mostly finishing up the season 1 builds. The 3rd wave was the best part of the Season 2, and those are all great sets. My favorite set here is Castle nocturnia. The big Zblob mech is a bit too big to be honest - could have been slightly smaller. I hope this theme runs at least 3 years and gets something fancy.
I actually don't want this theme to fail, because Matteo is already my friend. And we're friends in a very awkward way than a lot of people would think, as me and him became friends thanks to actually his discord, And I own him physically now. in the. ninjago universe as an alternate timeline, he has time control, and wields both of the ninjago timeblades and even has a stronger form as the legendary pokemon: Dialga.
I gotta say, I really hope not. I only learned about Dreamzzz a few months ago. And I gotta say, when I started seeing sets on the shelves, I was _very impressed._ The creativity that goes into the builds really is something to be admired. It's like when we were kids and we would mix all our sets together to make something unique and creative; except in this case, the bricks are all color-themed and uniform. To me, Dreamzzz lives up to the name in that, the theme is based on Dreams - and in Dreams anything can happen; so as long as the sets keep being creative, they can pretty much do anything.
I really like this theme it’s much better then nexo knights or china or monkie kid and especially hidden side which I think was the worst theme . Some of the sets are really cool like the big crow from season 2. I watched both seasons and in my opinion the episodes didn’t feel as much repetitive as the nexo knights episodes and I also prefer season 2 especially for the evil version of Mateo , Logan etc. and the sets in my country are still not sold out even tho most are retiring this year 4-5 if them are 40% off
I still say they need to make sets that you can either buy individually or buy 2 different sets that you can combine. They need to get rid of the 10 cent piece count for just a specific theme that you can combine 2 sets into a 3rd set. Basically a 3 in 1 but you have to buy 2 sets.
In France (where i'm from) the set are still all full price and kinda hard to find (I got to go to a lego store 2 time last week and on tuesday the shelves of Dreamzzz were almost full and friday there was only like 10 combine sets left. As for the show, tho the fist season was nice the second one is way better animation wise and story wise so that explain why the score is higher
Unfortunately, it is too expensive. What made Ninjago thrive were its lower prices compared to other products. (At least a few years ago.) Additionally, it's missing more sets that are less theme specific and could blend in with other playtables/displays.
the dreamz sets look awesome to me and im 31. Lego always seems to target a much younger demographic. They always seem to target 2 year olds. Even tho most people dont even start collecting lego until they are preteens lol. They area always scared to even show the simplest of violence. I remember in the lego ninjago show, the first few seasons, you never really saw a character actually hit another character lol
I can tell you why. The theme has such big potential but they the execution of the plots is just down bad. 1. The choreography and the way the characters move in the space is weird; they sometimes move 3 metters and they try to make it seem as they're already in a totally another place. I still remember when the Night hunter contacted Mateo in the real word, and Mateo seemed so lost at the carnaval, trying to follow the misterious guy, but at the end of the following scene he was literally 3 metters away of his friends, and they were like "Where is Mateo". Or the organization's place in the dream word which seem so small and empty. There is nothing going on in there. Or when the Witch was traped and the Night hunter left, and then literally 1 sec passed before she just simply escaped, thing that she didnt manage to do in years but now she just simply can. 2. Some characters have wird designs, just like the manticor who is nightmere fuel. The friends of the protagonists also feel like too similar to the ninjas cuz of their hairs and dont fell unique enough to be "peotagonist designs". Shortly, they're not recognizable. 3. The way the clepsidres work doesnt make sense. In a dream you should be able to creste things without a clepsidre. I get it that with the clepsidre the dream crafting is stronger, but i think the dream crafting should be posible in the reall world too with a clepsidre. So when they're fighting corupt demons in school or on the streets of the night, them wining would actually make sense. 5. The invalid girl should be able to walk in the dreams. Or it would have been cool if in her introduction in the dream world, she would only fly, then when we see her in the real world to see her in a chair. 4. I want more of the Night Hunter cuz he one of the most interesting characters. His wife too. His dedicated ep from season 2 was the only episod i watched in which i didnt get annoyed by something constantly. Before i'm called a hater, i just want to say that i love the ideea of the show, but hate the execution. It had soo much potential, and i simply hate to see an amazing ideea being ruined by small budget/ bad writing and choreography.
Personally, I like the show, but I always forget there are sets for this. Like ninjago sets' problems on steroids. They should focus more on the TV show aspect.
so a bunch of season 3 sets got leaked. i can't post for copyright ofc but they shouldn't be too hard to find online. That Mateo car colour scheme looks so cool!
I actually work in a Lego store in my country and at least 5 sets are on discount almost every month

I see Dreamzzz sets and it reminds me of time cruisers and it's offputting to me for the same reasons so I can imagine kids feeling this way because, I did, as a kid. It's just random "stuff" with no logic or structure. The Monster Pirate Ship is the only set that I found really cool, everything else I wouldn't spend a penny on.
LEGO can't seem to shake off the idea that original themes need to be "weird" and "whacky" like the ill-fated Vidiyo or Hidden side.
As much as weird and wacky can be good, it can get pretty generic.
The problem with lego is the cost for a big piece count set. If they offered customers with an option to order online to just get the pieces they could make sets so much cheaper. I could care less about a box lol. They could even workout a deal with Amazon to make these types of sets exclusive and sell them cheap. Unfortunately lego has a reputation of wasting their money.
I really hope Dreamzzz can release those canceled Vidiyo Dino heads in a small set.
I really hope this one doesn't get cancelled like Nexo Knights got, on a cliffhanger
I find it really enjoyable
Okay, I watched all season on Netflix, my thoughts: season one was about matoe becoming an "aware dreamer"( because of that mateos siblings and friends can be an aware dreamer) and defeating the nightmare king. Season 2 was about Mateo, Izzy, Zoey, cooper, and Logan trying to defeat the Never Witch in one or more ways. I may not have watched every frame or heard every voice line but there are theories that I can come up with: 1. Matoe can use Lunia's Hourglass and we can see that Matoe's mother is gone, and Lunia is gone around the same time, so does that mean Lunia is Mateo's mother? 2. the nether Never Witch can take away memories from people, Ninjago dragons rise when the ninja finds Jay, and he loses all his memories, how? We are gonna need to watch the next season, but maybe there is a crossover(between Ninjago Dragons Rising and Dreams). I know that some people are gonna correct me, or tell me something I might have missed, so please do that, I appreciate that. Thank you
There was a Ninjago crossover, and the show is canonically a show in the show’s universe
Something we all need to know is that the TV show and the sets are very different things. The TV show is in my opinion terrible, at least if you compare it with Ninjago and Monkie Kid, I feel like every episode is boring and nothing really happens. About the sets though, the sets are pretty great because the sets are unique models we don’t really see in any other Lego theme. The sets has some great instruction art and the fact that you can build the set in different ways is also pretty cool. We can also see how the Lego group is going all in with this theme, we are getting new Dreamzzz seasons faster than Ninjago seasons and we get dual molding and side printing on most Dreamzzz minifigures as well. I do not know where Lego is going with their Lego Dreamzzz theme but it will probably fall soon because Ninjago is just better. Thanks for reading sorry that I made it this long but I had to speak.😅
the sets are just too expensive for a lot of families to swing for outside of like a birthday gift sadly, and i think thats it's biggest issue.
Season 1 was god awful, but season 2 somehow hit it out of the park.
Just got the Narwhal set at my Walmart and it was $15.97 here in the US. All that was on the shelves besides that was the Z-Blob set, I couldn’t find a single one of the bigger sets. Really wanted that Turtle Van, the dinosaur, or the nightmare shark.
1:11 i have never seen or heard of this set im finnish and we have in our stores pretty big selection of dreamzzz sets and i have never heard and seen this set this is weird that the new theme has already a forgotten set
I think this is an official Lego store exclusive set. 👍
I think with their original lines Lego is really trying to net the younger child market as their other themes like Star Wars trend more and more to adults - I think most of their sales are now adult collectors and so they use Dreamzzz to try and appeal to children and still have a stake and relevance in children's toy sales
Loved the video man, Great job!
Much appreciated! Glad you enjoyed it!
It kind of feels like weird, bad Gravity Falls
I’d describe it more as Nightmare on Elm Street with no horror. At least Dream Warriors.
Weirdmageddon, but its every set, and some of them are just Mabel's wacky child brain like the bunny on roller skates, you have to admit though that the villain sets are decent
I want lego dreamzzz to stay. Because I like the them.
Lego, bring back Power Miners and Space Police and my wallet is yours!
I’ve watched season 1 and 2 and they are amazing. I loved it so much, I’m creating my own season 3 lol
I dont like the TV show, but the sets are amazing, not all but most of them. Chima and Nexo Knights, i loved to watch (i also have all Chima DVDs), and the sets, but i dont have that many
You know Lego theme would rule internationally. Lego super Sentai or Lego ultraman. Think about it, this is any easy way to make use of the old molds for bionicle parts
I think the molds for CCBS and the old Bionicle parts are actually scrapped, like gone (which sucks, but bringing it back would be Hella expensive) but I agree we are missing an anime or tokusatsu esc Kaiju vs Mecha theme, its perfect for Lego since they love doing mechs and monsters
S1 was good but nothing special, and S2 was actually an improvement. I hope the show at least continues
Honestly, it is gonna depend on how much LEGO is gonna invest into this theme, and may depend if children are ever gonna still enjoy it.
But let’s face it, out of all the franchises LEGO has, Ninjago is the *behemoth* of them all!
there's no beating ninjago.the writers of the show went above and beyond.zane's sacrifice against overlord alone probably made them more money than some of their failed projects
I hope that Dreamzzz can at least last long enough to have a long story like Chima because I’m still taunted by Mateo x Zoey which they still need to make happen
I grew up with Ninjago and Dreamzzz just doesn’t feel like something I would like watching at my age. Meanwhile with Ninjago I can turn it on without feeling like im watching something a 7 year old would. I watch what I like I but Dreamzzz just isn’t hitting.
ive seen both seasons and season 2 is a masterpiece!
I think the dreams sets look rlly cool but I’ve only ever watched a episode of it but I do hope it becomes successful as hopefully Lego will release more original ideas:)
I quite like the designs and the changeable nature of the models a classic lego set feature is interchange parts. I dont own many myself yet but some of the figures and animal pieces are very nice
0:34 gd reference lol
The sets are just too expensive for something without and licensing fees.
Hidden Side was so cool. I got my daughter a few of those sets for Christmas the 1st year they came out.
The biggest issue i see with dreams is that it is cluttered as a concept for sets rather than the 3 in 1 children's sets. The antaganist sets are the most consistent of them.
Alot of the sets for dreams don't fit with my collection concept of making a starwars type army.
I like The Series and the Sets are cool I don't think it's failing but maybe we'll get more Crossover Specials like we got with Ninjago but I don't know if it's confirmed if Season 3 is the last season tho? I guess we'll just have to wait and see
I picked up the Dreamzzz sets as they work in a fantasy world, also my nephew's have fun with the Crocodile car that I gave them.
The older nephew is getting the Nightmare ship for Christmas and the younger nephew is getting the 3 in 1 Pirate ship.
Since there is very limited castle this gives me the fix. Also the fir sale prices in the US are not as steep from what I have seen.
Gosh where do you get those prices, here in germany you can be happy if you get 25% off
Personally, I like Dreamzzz. It's different.
Exactly I especially like how relatable the characters are
It’s great you’re feeling better
Imagine this show becomes a new multi-year Lego success. That would probably be great for Lego and would convince them to start making their own themes again. This would be fine as long as they don’t mess with the legend itself and their most popular continuing oc, Ninjago. Imagine a love-action Dreamzzz movie… 💀
*live-action, not love-action… someone delete autocorrect from existence please 🙏
I have a 7 year old brother and he LOVES this show. I always find him watching this show
Dreamzzz should continue for TWO more years!
I'm someone in the US, and, until this video I had never once heard of this theme. So it's safe to say this could be failing, due to the lack of reach Lego is trying to do for this theme. (( And I'm unironically heavily biased towards Ninjago, as I've been watching that since the Pilot episodes. ))
I like Dreamzzz, the shark ship is really dope and the raven house one too. The series was pretty fun imo
That raven looks awesome! I love how you can detach the house and make it a walking house!
I was a big Lego Chima fan and got a bunch of the ancient beasts sets from Chima's second wave. But I've seen this before. I haven't gotten any new sets in a while, nor do I plan to get anymore, except Bionicle type sets from 10 years ago. I'm especially planning to get those Lego Chima ultrabuilds alsi from about 10 years ago. But I know when a set is awesome, unique, and absolutely fun to build. But Lego Dreamzzz's nightmare boat, turtle van, spacebus, cool race cars, robo knight, and cat motorcycle sets are really temping, not gonna lie. But I saw this happen to Lego Chima. I thought they had a fantastic thing going for them but they still had a relatively short life span. I'm giving Lego Dreamzzz 1 in a half, to 2 more years. But their sets are without a doubt going to stay as huge standouts among modern Lego sets.
I'm 30 now but I found this theme really cool in its design and premise and have been collecting them. I'll be a little sad if it does fail but I think my wallet might be more thankful!
I don’t really pay attention to dreamzz which I guess is why I never knew that minifig “puffy vest” accessory got created, but I need one in red for my Marty mcfly fig lol
could you do a video on Lego Elves, its one of the few franchises with a friends type of body. I loved it as a kid but it ended so quick.
Anime is canon in the Dreamzzz universe
There's a few themes that I think are good that I personally don't have any interest in, except if I can use the set, prints, or pieces for other things. Like Harry Potter, I bought 2 Aragog sets for a potential dragon age moc. The problem I have with this theme is that while it's fun and creative, it's almost too whimsical for me to get any use out of.
i've seen some sets in legoland.they looked pretty cool,because the colours were a lot more vibrant then in previous series,but i decided to see what the show's about first
I think this theme is cool, they just need to do something about the larger sets.
I personally love the Lego dreamzzz sets, and so does my 4 year old. I think it’s very reminiscent of what Lego is truly about, building whatever your imagination can dream up. (No pun intended)
Big dog just cause a theme doesn’t become a staple doesn’t mean it’s failed. Lego does small 2&1/2 year themes all the time. It keeps things fresh
There’s a Lego store that opened recently near my place and they’re using dreamzz sets disassembled in the pick a brick/build a minifigure sections 💀
10:14 do this Spider parts exist or will be?
I’m an AFOL & love Dreamzzz, and my son loves playing with my sets (he’s mostly a Minecraft/Ninjago/Jurassic Park fan). I think it’s a really great but unfocused theme which feels like it has struggled to find its audience - it’s constantly deep discounted. Strongly suspect it’ll wind down in 2025.
It's hidden side all over Again
DreamZzz interests me but I haven't got too many DreamZzz sets, I've found the sets to be a bit hit or miss; there's some I like and some I don't, I like the Elves-like Dream Village and Magical Creature Stables but haven't bought them yet
i feel like everytime Lego is trying to recreate Ninjago, it will always fail for one reason to another.
it's like catching lightning in a bottle.
i honestly hope that Dreamzzz lasts as an original lego theme, not as a show, but i still hope it lasts, it reminds me of some older themes, and makes me miss these sets that will usually have 2 in 1 type sets and builds, and honestly the sets are pretty cool/cute and have really unique sets and introduce new molds (such as the puffy vest piece) and pieces in different colors which is great for customization for minifigs and other builds
If they had some cheaper villain sets, I'd definitely try and get them. As it is, the location builds are definitely going to become the basis for mocs
If it does fail, I hope it doesn't take another good colour with it like Nexo Knights and Hidden Side before it.
Most places are selling the nightmare creatures set for less so I may well buy it.
Welp time to quarantine away from this video then
I quite like the theme.
The first wave of sets was great (there are only 2 or so sets that I didn't like and got only for completion). The second smaller wave was mostly finishing up the season 1 builds.
The 3rd wave was the best part of the Season 2, and those are all great sets. My favorite set here is Castle nocturnia. The big Zblob mech is a bit too big to be honest - could have been slightly smaller.
I hope this theme runs at least 3 years and gets something fancy.
I actually don't want this theme to fail, because Matteo is already my friend. And we're friends in a very awkward way than a lot of people would think, as me and him became friends thanks to actually his discord, And I own him physically now. in the. ninjago universe as an alternate timeline, he has time control, and wields both of the ninjago timeblades and even has a stronger form as the legendary pokemon: Dialga.
I gotta say, I really hope not. I only learned about Dreamzzz a few months ago. And I gotta say, when I started seeing sets on the shelves, I was _very impressed._ The creativity that goes into the builds really is something to be admired. It's like when we were kids and we would mix all our sets together to make something unique and creative; except in this case, the bricks are all color-themed and uniform.
To me, Dreamzzz lives up to the name in that, the theme is based on Dreams - and in Dreams anything can happen; so as long as the sets keep being creative, they can pretty much do anything.
I really like this theme it’s much better then nexo knights or china or monkie kid and especially hidden side which I think was the worst theme . Some of the sets are really cool like the big crow from season 2. I watched both seasons and in my opinion the episodes didn’t feel as much repetitive as the nexo knights episodes and I also prefer season 2 especially for the evil version of Mateo , Logan etc. and the sets in my country are still not sold out even tho most are retiring this year 4-5 if them are 40% off
I still say they need to make sets that you can either buy individually or buy 2 different sets that you can combine. They need to get rid of the 10 cent piece count for just a specific theme that you can combine 2 sets into a 3rd set. Basically a 3 in 1 but you have to buy 2 sets.
Some sets you can actually combine , the dream village for example , you can combine this one with the stables or the Treehouse
2:47 oh wow the theme directed towards children is childish? I never would have guessed lmao
In France (where i'm from) the set are still all full price and kinda hard to find (I got to go to a lego store 2 time last week and on tuesday the shelves of Dreamzzz were almost full and friday there was only like 10 combine sets left. As for the show, tho the fist season was nice the second one is way better animation wise and story wise so that explain why the score is higher
Im from spain and finding any dreamz sets on the shelves is imposible and if you try to find them online they are discounted or without stock
1 more year? (Don’t tell bro that S4 is already in development 🤫)
Unfortunately, it is too expensive. What made Ninjago thrive were its lower prices compared to other products. (At least a few years ago.)
Additionally, it's missing more sets that are less theme specific and could blend in with other playtables/displays.
We never played their Lego Warner Bros Video Game before.
the dreamz sets look awesome to me and im 31.
Lego always seems to target a much younger demographic. They always seem to target 2 year olds. Even tho most people dont even start collecting lego until they are preteens lol. They area always scared to even show the simplest of violence. I remember in the lego ninjago show, the first few seasons, you never really saw a character actually hit another character lol
I can tell you why.
The theme has such big potential but they the execution of the plots is just down bad.
1. The choreography and the way the characters move in the space is weird; they sometimes move 3 metters and they try to make it seem as they're already in a totally another place. I still remember when the Night hunter contacted Mateo in the real word, and Mateo seemed so lost at the carnaval, trying to follow the misterious guy, but at the end of the following scene he was literally 3 metters away of his friends, and they were like "Where is Mateo". Or the organization's place in the dream word which seem so small and empty. There is nothing going on in there. Or when the Witch was traped and the Night hunter left, and then literally 1 sec passed before she just simply escaped, thing that she didnt manage to do in years but now she just simply can.
2. Some characters have wird designs, just like the manticor who is nightmere fuel. The friends of the protagonists also feel like too similar to the ninjas cuz of their hairs and dont fell unique enough to be "peotagonist designs". Shortly, they're not recognizable.
3. The way the clepsidres work doesnt make sense. In a dream you should be able to creste things without a clepsidre. I get it that with the clepsidre the dream crafting is stronger, but i think the dream crafting should be posible in the reall world too with a clepsidre. So when they're fighting corupt demons in school or on the streets of the night, them wining would actually make sense.
5. The invalid girl should be able to walk in the dreams. Or it would have been cool if in her introduction in the dream world, she would only fly, then when we see her in the real world to see her in a chair.
4. I want more of the Night Hunter cuz he one of the most interesting characters. His wife too. His dedicated ep from season 2 was the only episod i watched in which i didnt get annoyed by something constantly.
Before i'm called a hater, i just want to say that i love the ideea of the show, but hate the execution. It had soo much potential, and i simply hate to see an amazing ideea being ruined by small budget/ bad writing and choreography.
I still can't get over the character with vitiligo, I don't get the obsession.
For the last 18 months I've only purchased sets that are >30% off, and I own the majority of the sets... so no they are not selling well in the US
Season 2 was a vast improvement for the series to me, although
[SPOILERS]
The video game theme for the next season/wave is a bit weird for me.
man i loved chima as a kid
I think one big issue is just how pricey these sets are nowadays
I think about the only show not on lego's youtube channel is Edward and Friends which is the Fabuland show from the nineties.
How come I just heard of this Lego dreamzzz series 😮
Can we all take a moment to remember how Dreamzz was introduced through Ninjago? Just maybe, maybe Ninjago is special...
Personally, I like the show, but I always forget there are sets for this. Like ninjago sets' problems on steroids. They should focus more on the TV show aspect.
