Lego needs to release the "Build your own DnD party" set with bunch of minifigs and accessories for them. So the people can build their own characters and use them in tabletop games. :) It is really a shame the set doesn't come with game campaign included. Real missed opportunity imho.

@@TiagoCatarino​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠it’s just like Lego fans, you have your casual fans who spend under/around $100 yearly. Then you have enthusiasts who have whole rooms devoted to the hobby. Then spend/invest hundreds in books, miniatures/models, accessories, tables etc. I played dnd back in high school and college fell out of it due to not having the time to join campaigns. Now if Lego started releasing more affordable sets and included entry level campaigns that could be completed in a nightly I’d definitely purchase

@@TiagoCatarino Many players start off the game with only paper components or very cheap books. The only thing you TECHNICALLY need for D&D is a piece of printed out paper and some dice, if even that. But “blinging out” your game creeps up quick. This is for two reasons. 1) The game is so time-intensive when you have a good play group. This makes it so that you’re willing to make it look professional and immersive with cool minis, painted landscapes, tools, etc. 2) It is basically no cost of entry. In the same way that free-to-play games get you to spend a little bit at a time (ultimately leading to more than a solid price with no micro transactions) after getting you in for free, D&D takes advantage of that same part of the market. Basically, people like myself LOVE to make the game feel real using all 5 senses, and official WOTC products are plentiful because they know that. Thanks so much for covering this set! As a LEGO fan and a tabletop gaming nerd, this sounds right up my alley. Now I just have to decide between this and my next $300 miniature-based board game!

Like it being a sprawling dungen you play in/with for countless advantures would have been awesome... As apposed to a prop that only really the DM touchs though out a single quest is dispointing especly at $350 when it should have been $200 or so... Like I did a TT wargame MOC for nanofigs using mostly random pick a brick parts just as demo of using lego for TT games It worked out fine... And their are those who also have done similar things more recently for TTRPGs and for DND specficly... Like I said this is ok and works as a fun prop but not a practical game tool.

More importantly, it's also a 10ft x 10ft cube that conveniently fills up a standard 10ft-wide dungeon corridor and is conveniently _just_ hard enough to spot that you might walk straight into a living wall of acidic slime. And as for why it (and other assorted D&D slimes, jellies, and oozes) exists... well, they're a handy excuse for why the dungeon is relatively clean and lacks all the junk the DM might have forgotten was left there by other players previously. OD&D even called them "the cleanup crew".

@@Gemini476 It would be awesome if the backstory is a wizard/alchemist created the Cube by modifying an ooze after being tired of dealing with the "heroes''" (more like ransackers, amirite) bodies that were left just lying around. The square shape was just genius, at least that's what the wiz said to themselves after casting Bigby's Hand to pat themselves on the back. The bodies goes away, awesome gear sticks around. Profit. Crappy gear? Chuck it to your rust monster pet, Flaky. She's a young, growing "pup". Skeletons? When the Cube excretes (Everyone Poops) the bones the wiz turns them into the undead guards or finds other uses thanks to a handy Tome of Undead Soups (the bone soup recipe is chef's kiss). The wizard was efficient, to say the least.

Another shortcumming (a real design flaw in architecture world): Remember, this is a PnP, with stats and variants of monsters to choose. So there were 6 sorts of dragons (1974): Green (gas), Red (fire), White (cold), Black (acid), Blue (light), and Gold (fire or gas). By round eyes and brickbuild wings, the original submission offer an option for a prefered dragon color (this calls Open Design principle!). But Lego did a Closed Design. Why not print its eyes on neutral (gray) plate? Or (if commit to non-open) offer 6 color packs.

Im sure a 2x rebrickable version will be along soon to solve the open back of it, though its a very overpriced set compared to medieval market if you go by part's so that will limit this.. Lego really seem to enjoy pricing out their fans.

It was one of the two sets I was looking for this year (the other one is Notre Dame) I'm a bit dispapointed on "the look" that changed since the original submission, on the other hand it feels quite complete, especially as designed to be actually played with in an adventure - although the dimensions are not that wide. I'll go for the buy, and hopefully there will be additions to the D&D sets!

The point of the figures is just a reference to help you understand positions and orientation in battle and environments. Otherwise it can be hard to just describe the current locations of everyone relative to each other.

I was originally kind of disappointed that they didn’t stick with the original design. (Green Dragon wrapped around tower) But the playability of the set looks fantastic and the minifigures look so good.

Hey Tiago! Long time fan of the channel and your content. Sometimes I agree with a lot of your opinions and reviews, and sometimes I disagree, which is good to have healthy discourse and debate regarding the direction of certain sets created by the LEGO Group. And with this set I’m far disagreeing with the price model of the set. I think using price/piece is not a healthy way to continue gauging whether a set is a practical purchase for a consumer, especially when a set like this is as expensive as it is. And with the advent of newer, smaller, more specific pieces emerge almost monthly, it’s important to question whether the shrinking of size of pieces is indicative to the true value of a part. Transitioning from the commentary about price/piece you comment about the luck of castle fans have had over the last few years, which I completely agree with… except if these fans are able to make enough money to justify the cost of these sets. With the release of Lion Knights’ Castle, Rivendell, Medieval Market, and now this it feels as though the standard price has skyrocketed to an average price of $372.50 USD when the last true wave of LEGO Castle were playsets composing of $15-$100 price points. And understanding that you receive review copies this is not as pertinent to you but could be valuable to expressing to your fans and viewers. While all these sets are truly beautiful love letters to LEGO Castle it is reasonable to want cheaper sets for those lower income families. LEGO is a company that vocalizes its inclusivity quite consistently but it feels as though the less fortunate are left out and completely alienated from the equation. If you read this thank you, I am eager to see what your thoughts are on the current market for these prices, and if you’re another viewer like me please feel free to comment as I am eager to engage in discourse around this!

They should do some lego stuff with Guide to Ravnica based set. We need more centaurs. (Mainly a dark stone grey body and dark orange tail.) Also I actually have an official D&D off brand lego set seeming from around the time of 2nd or 3rd edition.

I think the value of the set has a very huge difference if you're or not a D&D fan/player. For a D&D player (and LEGO fan of course) that can recognize all the little details, the easter eggs etc I think it's an incredible valuable set and anyone will mind the price (as D&D fans that spend 50€ (or dollars) on a tiny minifigure, an entire Lego adventure for 360€ is very reasonable ahahahahaha)

360$ feels *way* too steep of a price for what you get. I love DND and it's a shame that i'll probably never own this set because I have to focus on life. It's getting ridiculous how expensive this "hobby" is I swear buying Lamborghinis seems more affordable than lego these days

Curious if the adventure is standalone or if you need other rules information to run it (Basic rules? Others?). Like if someone who is into D&D already wants to get this to show their group maybe it'd be a nice one-off adventure. Really like all the little secrets, quite a lot for a company that already puts fun secrets in bigger sets. No dice is a bit surprising, especially if it's an entry level adventure, maybe some production hurdle there? Lego's modularity already fits in with the custom nature of the RPG so I'm happy to see this, I hope they'll have less expensive stuff in this theme to experiment with. I guess minifigure blind bags may happen?

I have been using LEGOs as minis to play DnD and other RPGs for years. Some of these very DnD specific creatures would be nice to get, but everything you need to play DnD with LEGO bits already exists. The upcoming minifig series will be a nice boon to it all, though.
