    Nice haul! I wish I’d known about the existence of these sooner. I’d definitely have gotten a bunch of these.

    I don’t suppose you know if there’s another company that’s gonna end up with the license? From what I can tell, this company has only had the license for a few years (since 2021, I think). Seems a pretty short run for a franchise this big.

          then you’ve been buying the right sets maybe, but it’s still overpriced and they put all kinda of colours in their sets

            I’m sorry but what kind of complaint is ‘too many colors’ when talking about Lego?

              Pieces that should have the same color are also very inconsistent nowadays, which is especially apparent on uniformly colored areas. Ther quality control is not what it used to be. Sets like the Fiat 500 had so many pieces that didn’t match that I gave them away because I didn’t want to display them.

              I switched to other manufacturers which have problems as well, but at least they are priced much lower.

      BlueBrixx is a German company making “Lego compatible” brick toy sets. Looks like they aim for more adult oriented sets hence the Star Trek and Star gate licenses. They also seem to produce military sets which Lego usually avoids.

    Really? That’s disappointing. I have the original Enterprise and the Defiant in the size you have as well as the Spock figurine. They were really nice products overall.

    So glad I could pick up some discounted stuff as well… Not in this picture: the Stargazer, which is gift wrapped and will be handed over to my son later today. These will serve as presents over the next year or two.
