"kids like to crash cars sometimes... toys of course"
lol well said
No wonder Jang can afford to buy all these sets, think of how many jobs he's got in lego city alone.
Well he's sometimes a crook but then a officer then pilot, trash collecter, truck driver. Wonder how he has time for anything...
Amazing
ohhhhhhhhh
AmazinglyIdiotic I know right
In LEGO city I have a Lamborghini and Mclaren
Early 2016: First pictures appear; I am totally buying this set. May 2016: Price appears: Lol..skip.
same
same here
Same sadly
I really like the design of the maroon car especially. For once for the past two decades they actually made a regular 4 stud wide car that looks like a regular car. I also love the inclusion of an alternate build. It's a throwback to older Lego sets that used to incentivize building more than just one config.
What a shame with the pricetag though.
That price is over-the-top ridiculous!
yes
totally!!! ikr!!
And it is everywhere. 70 € in europe. That is just insane.
Exactly. It looks ok and all, but that should be $50 at best.
I keep hearing from families that Lego has gone from a common purchase to a once in a while/couple times a year purchase due to price. Combined with the seemingly quick retirement cycle, it's frustrating for parents. Some find it cheaper to buy bulk classic Legos from eBay or use their old collections.
Coming back to this youtube video almost 3 years later remembering that this was actually my first youtube video i ever wached!
90 bucks? Maybe a police station, not a gas station.
Ken block
That surprise 2-in-1 build was nicely integrated in your video Jang.
It's a 3D pizza printer? :O The future is now! :D
+Marclivis XD
+JANGBRiCKS can you make a lego candy machine
Just make sure that the cartridge of flour doesn't get sour...
+Paul Earithyme WHATTT
Oh, it should be "If I may duly note"... That should clarify matters...
i didnt check the price at first. so i went back to it thinking what a good set im going to buy. I was stopped by the price. 90$ seriously LEGO?
@GoatyGuy sad
@GoatyGuy Are you kidding me?!
@GoatyGuy wow
Why is this 40$ more than it should be ?
Because Lego city
+Kylo Ren 50 more honoustly if getting 2 in one sets means the price becomes this much more than it's not worth it.
Maybe it's because we are running out of non renewable resources to make the Lego pieces
+Oliver Beck Nah, not with oil, even at 6-month highs, still under $50 a barrel.
+Darknova3529 that's nonsense, look at the 3 in 1 creator sets and there value and their price per part
It's a decent set, but, the fact this is $90 baffles me. This seems like a $50-$60 set at best. Maybe $70. We have other sets from City still available at that price, that are decent for what they are(like that new Bulldozer Break-In). So, why $90 for this?
Nice set, but the older one was better (from the 90's) and cheaper.
youtubasoarus It was only cheaper because of inflation. At the time, even though it had different prices, it was worth pretty much the same as this one.
The set (6397) was re-released in 2001 (as 6472), going by that figure, the set would had been about $70.
I bought my last Lego set back in 2000 obviously back then they always released 3 in 1 sets. Just recently gave my 26 lego sets all Lego city(Lego system) to my niece feeling sad now lol.
90$!! please tell me thats a typi
*typo*
+banana derpington
nope
I hope it is.
+banana derpington nope #sadness
+banana derpington I am so sorry, its not. :( I would have bought this immediately but the price shook me to the core
This is a very nice set. I agree with the price being way too high though!!
The only reason you like the street sweeper is because you're driving it. Also, I'm pretty sure the thing at 12:07 is the pizza repair station. Everybody goes there eventually
Ahh this review was great. The primary build stirred up fond memories of the 'Gas N' Wash Express' set that I had in the 90s - it did have the bonus of being able to have the car wash AND the main fuelling station built at the same time but having three vehicles in this iteration is definitely a plus! It's a shame about the high price - I think my nostalgia (instead of my common-sense) would drive my wallet in this instance!
+DICE IN A BOX - LEGO "This set as the 90's look, so will charge 90$ for it"
+tekmoc17 brick And watch the sales fall way flat (6 months later) - lets drop the price to 59.99!
Definitely agree with you on the price, in Australia it will be over $120!!!
It is a quality LEGO set, and LEGO has gotten to what fans want in City Theme:
-People Pack
-VIP Service
-Gas Station…
But this set is almost double what it should cost. When I saw the original price posted on Brickset compared to the Piece count, I hoped that they were wrong and that it would a Maximum $60, not $90. The 2008 Police Station was hardly even that expensive.
The 08 station WAS $90, but had 953 pieces. That still is a better deal
Finally! A City set that isn't entirely vehicle based, and doesn't have a structure that wouldn't fit into an actual City centre kinda thing, this looks great! I hope they make more things like this.
+AmazingLego123 ...but MUCH cheaper
I love the set, but there is NO way I'm buying it at that price point.
i didn't even notice the price or price per part until you mentioned it at the end. What the hell are they thinking? It's a nice set, a good 2-in-1 build, but WOW! This should be closer to HALF what the MSRP is.
+Raine Kaspar IMO, it's a 59.99 set based on the pieces.
***** Exactly! $50-60 is reasonable for it, i know having big pieces drives sets above the 10 cents per piece target (which is why most of the space sets are 13-14 cents per piece), but there really aren't any that i can see. i can't tell if the 2 roofs are segments or single pieces, but even if they're big pieces that's nowhere near enough to justify a $30-40 hike in price.
Raine Kaspar It could be a 6x24, though a fairly recent set (2012's Forest Fire Helicopter had 2 of them for 59.99, and also has a similar piece count (522)).
It's a pizza 3d printer. The yellow nozzle is the filament extruder.
Lol
The price of this is absolutely insane, especially since there are *no* new or especially large pieces. It's almost like they made a mistake or something.
On top of that, they needlessly increased the piece count by adding things you absolutely don't need like the bicycle, the lego signs out front, the lame pizzaria, and even the street cleaner (kinda cool, but what does it have to do with a service station???).
At it's core there is a pretty awesome ~400 piece, $39.99 service station here. I wish they had produced that set at that price point which would have made this enjoyable concept available to a much wider number of children and families.
Which is funny, since the one is 2007 WAS 400 pieces (402 to be exact), and was $40, and even more apples to apples, was also a Summer release.
I would need two sets to put back to back because I hate half buildings but $90 is way out of line
it's a workbench used to cut pizzaslices at industrial quality
Best comment of the day
Keeping the city and the comments clean. This is why we love Jang
it's a tool box, and the mechanic just bought a pizza for lunch.
why is the cash register there??
I had the 7993 service station as a kid this reminds me of it
+William Burger I have 7993 as well.
It's a nice set, reminds me of all the ones in Turkey. But, the price is ridiculous. $90 is way too much, $60 on the other hand would make more sense.
I got Cargo Terminal 60169 set and found it a at store different then wallmart, target, toysrus, it was 100$ but a sign said "50% Off" so I got it for 50$.
500 pieces, it's supposed to be 50$. why is it twice the price it originally is?
I think it is a great set. I love the stickers, great for building your own custom fueling station. But the price... sigh...
Maybe I can pick it up at a sale one day.
im fairly sure the transparent blue pieces on the shelf are jugs for water coolers which are often sold at fuel stations.
I really really like this set, because I recently came back to Lego and I'm building a lego city, but all the old gas stations are crazy expensive now, so even though this set may be a bit expensive, it's still nice to allow those who missed out on the previous gas stations to finally build one (:
I just love this set, I haven't had a new Lego set in years in I think this might be one to get back into it
fantastic to see Lego corp giving alternatives for their principal builds! I really miss that from the sets of my youth.
Station looks great. Nice to see they went back to the idea of alternative builds again for non-'creator' sets.
I love that every vehicle in the Lego city line-up is rocking a rocket bunny widebody.
The set is really cool and the alternate build is a great edition, but that car wash function is mindblowingly awesome for me!
That car wash is so great! :D
I like how you said that you keep the comment section clean, I love that you do that!
In comparison to all the other Octan gas stations Lego has made in the past, it goes to show that they've really changed a lot over the years.
I remember having the Shell petrol station from the 1980's. It had a proper base plate with two lanes for fueling. Honestly, I think that was a better set than the current one.
Thats such a shame about the price, cuz I really like this set. Nothing particulary flashy about it, but it fits in nicely with a City and even on its own it's a good build. But that price is ridiculous
$90 DOLLARS!!? It's a shame, I really wanted this set too when It first came out. It looked like it was about $50 at the most, but since it's a 2 in 1 set they boost it. I think I'll just Try to pick up the 2007 service station set on eBay.
THIS SET IS AMAZING LOOKING! to bad i don't have 90 bucks to spend
it's beautiful, it's like in the boxes to the 80's with 2 full instructions!
Yeah, we noticed the price issue, but we were there on a Thursday night, so we got our TRU cardholder discount of 10%, plus I had $20 in Rewards Money for Toys R Us, so that is how we brought the price down to more where we felt it should have been. This is our first Service Station, so we are pretty happy with it. Agree with you re: the tall Octan sign, that it should have been fully finished on the back. Thank you for another great review.
I thought the price when announced was a typo. If this is the direction of Lego pricing I'm done.I don't mind paying a premium for a superior product, but for $90US I feel I'm being taken advantage of which isn't a fun feeling.
Great vid! Really well-presented. I love that they put in the EV charging part on this station. It's like they've captured a moment in time, and it'll be interesting to see where things go from here :)
It's a great looking set, and as a fan of LEGO's service stations I was planning to get one when I saw pics of it. But then I learned the price, and I just can't justify it. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one that thinks they shot a little high.
Hey Jang! Love your video's! and I LOVE your awesome moc's.
Keep up the VERY good work!!!
that machine is a tire balance, you put on weights on tires to make the tires more controllable
hi jang, great review! love the extra builds as two in one to give extra ideas like Lego did in the past. but it's an expensive set! I did not see the price in the intro, so I guessed while you were talking expensive would be $70, but rechecking the intro $90 is at least 33% to high!
Service stations are huge motorway stops, that contain shops for food, and stuff. You can also refuel your car. Needed for long journeys as a milestone and a chance to rest.
the yellow thing with the pizza in the second build is a tire changer.
pizza is supposed to represent the turntable for the tire
when i get a house... i shall desinate a large room to a lego city
I missed the price at the beginning, but I was thinking, "OK, 515 parts, so perhaps about $60-70". Then I went back and checked. YIKES! As much as I like the general look of the set, that is just too expensive for what you get.
So many stickers nowadays! A 900 piece set (4565) from 1996 had four stickers. I can't even begin to count the amount of stickers in this set. I'm more a fan of the printed stuff. Especially on tiles smaller than 2x2.
when I saw this set I fell in love. I've been needing a gas station for my city but the price is wayyy more than it should be.
The city sets have never grabbed my attention, but this new wave is really great! I cant even say what they did differently, except that I see many more female minifigs. Or am I just imagining things?
I think that yellow thing is supposed to be a large toolbox, one of the ones that roll around and have lots of tools on them.
You're 100% right about that price point. My son and I went to Toys R Us today to pick up some of the new City sets, and were completely shocked at the cost of this set. I ended up putting it back and instead got the Porsche hybrid set, it just seemed like a better buy in comparison.
I'm not normally into playset pieces, but, this one sure looks interesting. I like the second build, too, from the photos I've seen.
I was about to comment that your hook on the tow truck was the wrong way, then I realised that it's on a ball and socket hinge. Nice touch.
Cool set. I like the charging station for electric cars like Tesla
I would say this is a very nice and clean gas station (which is something I don't say often)
Really like the Octan colour scheme, it reminds me so much of the Castrol Toyota Racing liveries of the 90's. The petrol station always meant the start of an adventure when I was younger so its a must buy for me, except the price is insane, it doesn't seem like inflation is the reason and oil is incredibly cheap at the moment, I have always gelt the more expensive set are never that great on value compared to £17.99 to £40 sets. I've really wanted to get the Porsche Le Mans set too but its £70, yet the single cars cost £12.99 in the UK, meaning they are charging £44 for that pit garage wall and it seems to steep. Overall I think the service Station should have been around $60, $90 would have been ok with more interior for the shop and or a Petrol Tanker and an extra car or two, or maybe even a small Lego delivery van.Maybe in the world of the Lego minifigure they get the Pizzas balanced when they get the wheels balanced, can't really think of why you'd need to use a wrench on a pizza. Also wouldn't the minifig. scale Lego set technically be like a replica scale model to them lol.
You'd need at least three sets to make it viable as a convenience store I think, but I like that it has lots of little things. That street sweeper is really nice.
It's a little heated compartment to keep the finished orders warm until someone picks it up.
Wait a minute... if legos have lego sets, then that means that lego’s lego’s sets have lego sets too. Woah.
Brought two of these sets along with the last Service Station (7993) and custom it with double pumps and expanded shop and city pizza. Also built up an Octan shop.
jangbricks i have actually put a lego minifigure in a lego car before without taking the roof off but it was hard
Thank you for acknowledging us australians in the video. You take pride in your sets and treat them well. You are my favourite youtube with enthusiasm and humour in your videos. You inspire me and make me have something to look forward to every day. Thank you for making your wonderful video's and keep soldiering on😊😋
I really like the street sweeper and the service station; I can see both, with a little bit of modification, having homes in my layout. But, I was shocked by the price as well. I think 30-50% is spot on for how much it is overpriced. I have seen a couple of sets with prices that were a lot higher than expected, I am hoping this is not a continuing trend. Thanks for sharing!!!
I am very proud of lego they are finally making more realistic buildings and vehicles in the city line. Cudos to lego!
It's an awesome set. I really wanted it when i saw it first, and still want it after your review. But the price is very high. Hopefully i can get it on Amazon or some other retailer at 20% off, at least.
+Megalodon1986 I'd wait for at least 33% off, then it gets it down to just 12 cents a piece instead of 17.5 cents a piece.
+Kuku h That would be even better yes :D
Maybe the bench is a rotating pizza cooker, with the flashlight(?) piece being where it heats the pizza and the numbers are the timer like on a microwave?
Awesome, I love the 2 in 1 sets of lego, not so much creator, but just regular themes with that.
How much did it cost I couldn't see from the bit at the start was blurry
+TJ Bricks 89.99!
In the second build I think the yellow desk(with the pizza on it) is were a worker was eating his lunch when he was on break!!! :)
If I'm not mistaken there was a similar set to this when I was kid that I had, or possibly I had a combination of smaller separate sets that pretty much made up the sum of the parts in this set combined. Either way I loved that as a kid, so many good parts.
Was possibly going to get this set, then I saw the price. AW HELL NO.
Looks like a brilliant set, definitely allows kids to use more imagination than just following the instructions. I think the yellow thing with the pizza on it is supposed to represent a 'self-service' checkout. Not sure if they have them in the US but they are very common now in Europe :)
I want this set!!!!!!!!! >.< But the price of it just makes me stay away from it till it is on sale
Whoa, the street sweeper returned? I remember seeing it way back in the day as a Lego magazine exclusive, which sadly means I never got it.
Jang, you should make a custom gas station/convenience store for your city
I was really looking forward to this set, ever since i saw it at toyfare, however now that I am seeing its pricetag, ouch, i cant justify that, for the part count i was expecting 60 dollars? 70 dollars tops. You are 100% correct though, that price per part is just way too high.
Nice set. It combines old elements with new ones. The only thing I miss in 'set 1' is the carcleaner from 'set 2'. To release that, they had to leave out the cleaning car which doesn't totally fit to this set to my opinion. The repair-car also. I mean: There isn't a garage anyway so.. meaby they should have leave that one also out. Although, it is a nice upgrade of the previous bigger version of it (which also counts for the cleaningcar: Nice upgrade of an older set).
And there is of course the price. $40 - $50 would be better to my opinion.
Love the electric car charging station!
90 BUCKS!? Time to wait for a big sale.
Luckily I have the old street sweeper so I can build my own 2nd-build car wash without buying this set. I'd love the red car too but the car wash was the best part! Maybe the addition of a washing area in the main build would justify the price?
@13:08 "Excuse me, son. What is a 'YUTE'?" "Sorry your honor, 'two YOUTHS', not two yutes."
My Cousin Vinny. Classic.
Samuel Baugh Vinny: "And ONLY Mrs. Reilly..."
Judge: (glares)
Vinny: "How many fingers am I holding up?"
A yute is spellt u - t - e, and they are lower pickups
I really like the sense of humor that jang have in this video when he introduce the 2nd build, and I agree about the price of the set I thought it would be like $50-$60 but $90 is to high
What i like about these sets is you can add and build the pizza place or shop
If you could build both configurations at the same time, or at least some variation that doesn't have seemingly duplicate services, then the price seems reasonable, but there's no specialised pieces, or as you said, large pieces, to justify $90, maybe $50 at most, I don't know, I'm in the UK and I would've said £40 is a reasonable price, so whatever LEGO's equivalent of a £40 set is.
It surprises me too considering how cheap LEGO can make some of their much larger, and frankly more impressive, sets like the modular buildings.
Adding this to my wish list. It's really cool and good looking.
The pizza seems to be a plate used to remove tires from the wheels for repair.
Awesome set review! While I think that the price per part ratio is completely insane, I can kind of see where they were going with it. Maybe LEGO saw the whole 2-in-1 thing as a means of almost doubling the price, but I'm still a little confused as they never tripled the price per part ratio for 3-1 Creator sets. Nice surprise though! I totally agree - I really hope that they continue doing that in the future! :D
I'm pretty sure the cylinders in the window are supposed to represent washer fluid.
I was thinking exactly the same thing. I am sure that is what is intended.
I love this set already and I haven't even finished watching the video!
