Could LEGO Star Trek be on the horizon?

I believe that you are looking at a property that is currently licensed to BlueBrixx building toys and therefore this argument will long be remembered as moot.

This would recapture my excitement for licensed sets. Personally, I would want minifig scale bridge sets from all the shows with the complete crew from each show. Maybe throw in a few key villains for some extra flavor.

EDIT: Maybe a couple of UCS style sets and a range of various ships in midiscale.

One of the most 'I did not read any of the article' comments I have ever seen."

Oh, I read it.
Moot still stands.

As it's a topic of discussion and uncertainty (moot), I will also edit.

The license has changed hands, but never to Lego over the last 20+ years. If it does get any attention from Lego, you have to consider how many, some actually very good, are still available.

Such a set lineup would probably appeal only to adults who want something they feel would be better than what is present at retail. For Lego, that is a pitfall, as they're caught between budget and dreams (look at your UCS Jabba's Sail Barge and UCS Millennium Falcon, a low vs high). You'd only see one set per year, and it would likely be $500 or higher.

Economic uncertainty with the primary markets may influence any decision to license and make product ultimately.

I could really go for a data fig. it would be a cool series to make with LEGO.

No way. ST is too much of a competitor fot SW to see this from happening. Disney will not be amused and the deal with SW is way too lucrative for Lego to waste

I will only buy ST LEGO if we get a set of the Original series episode 'Spock's Brain'...

Because who wouldn't want that (in)famous episode in Lego?

Your point about a new movie garnering international interest in the IP would be valid if they still made movies. It will have been at least 10 years since the last movie came out if a new one comes out, and that's a big if. I have no confidence they'll be able to get one off the ground after so many years of false starts and development problems. See also: Star Wars theatrical movies since 2019

Would love fig sets! Gonna be an 18+ miniscale ship instead.

"They should make a U.S.S. Enterprise in the same way they did 75192: have the crew from the original series and the crew from TNG, and some extra parts to build the physical differences between the Enterprise and Enterprise D (which, not really being into Star Trek, I never even knew were separate ships).

It should also have a minifigure-scale model of the bridge for you to display the minifigures. Because given the thin profile of the Enterprise, the model would gave to be ridiculously large just to fit a single minifigure room."

The Original Series and Next Generation Enterprises are far too different for it to work to make them both as a single kit.
"

Size too... the TOS bridge is smaller than the TNG one, and pretty flat. The TNG bridge has elevation, with that great wood paneled arch behind the command chairs. TNG also really puts the focus on the captain's "right and left hands" with Riker and Troi's seats flanking Picard's. It's enough differences that unless LEGO wants to release a big "build your own bridge" set, you can't really even do it with the same base build.

A TOS Enterprise to a Refit Enterprise bridge could work as one set, they're closer in size and design ethos to share the same base shape. Apparently the Enterprise-A changed it's bridge set in nearly every movie it was in, but since they all followed the classic flat-floor central captain's chair style, only detail obsessed fans catch it.

Personally, I have no interest in Star Trek. More importantly, Lego’s recent futuristic space exploration sets in City have been so good that I have no desire to see them replaced with yet another IP, like Pirates of the Caribbean as a substitute for classic non-licensed pirates or Lord of the Rings as a substitute for classic non-licensed castle.

I don’t think there’s a big threat of that happening though, because I don’t think Star Trek has enough iconic ships and locations (at least to the casual fan or non-fan) to warrant a full product line like Star Wars. I think it could only provide for a handful of AFOL-aimed sets. So if Lego wanted to make a UCS Enterprise, that’d be fine.

Make it so!

There are spinoffs with mature content so I don't think it's likely anymore.

I'd certainly buy an Enterprise, but that's where my interest would start and end.

I would LOVE to see Star Trek sets. Besides the obvious ship models and Bridge Scenes they could do, they could perhaps do modular "floor plan" layouts that connect like the ready room, holo-deck, medial, etc...

New shows like Star Trek Prodigy (which is great btw) could provide sets for younger viewers/fans to get involved and the show has a really fun color palette that im sure would fit well with lego.

I would love a midi scale USS Cerritos! Lower Decks!
A TNG era Romulan Warbird would be interesting to see how they get the wing curvature. I do think it's a theme ripe with possibilities but not sure it will happen.

I haven't seen one bit of Star Trek, i'm a Star Wars loyalist. Still, sets would be cool, although in the 18+ category as not many kids will know what it is.

As a forty something Trekkie I would love to see the sets for all of the series, Picard, DS9, TNG, VOY and TOS. Art could be good, not just the ships and mini figures.

I've not really seen the bluebrixx ones, but then I have not looked for them.

I was the 47th person to like the article! It's an omen!!

But inside jokes aside: As a lifelong Star Trek fan I don't see Star Trek: Lego happen, for various reasons.

I really don't think that Disney would like to see it. LEGO Star Wars has practically eliminated non-licensed space stuff. I don't think that they'd go for two space franchises.

And I think that Star Trek ships would be very difficult to satisfyingly pull of in LEGO form. Many round shapes, some design features that would be structurally difficult to build (the saucer section of the Enterprise on its narrow neck section comes to mind).
And there are very few really iconic diorama or play set opportunities (as much as I'd dig a Klingon Great Hall).

@Rowia:
Lower Decks, Prodigy, and Strange New Worlds are all still in production, with Starfleet Academy set to debut in the next two years.

@WolfpackBricksStudios:
So you're saying they should include all of the pieces to build both models simultaneously except one white 2x4 brivck, and pack them in a single box? They might be able to make something like that work with the original Enterprise and the movie refit, but the NCC-1701-D is a completely different shape.

@chrisaw:
Because that always works with licensing agreements. You'd need to turn it into a puzzle. Check this box. Go back and uncheck the box in paragraph 3. Check all boxes that aren't currently checked, and uncheck all boxes that are. Refresh the page.

Exactly. One single, really huge set of a Klingon Bird of Prey docked at Deep Space Nine.

"I believe that you are looking at a property that is currently licensed to BlueBrixx building toys and therefore this argument will long be remembered as moot."

The long-running science fiction franchise has previously partnered with other construction toy brands, most recently including BlueBrixx. However, this partnership has now concluded

As much as I LOVE Star Trek, and would love a full line of sets I would really only expect one or two large collector sets ala LOTR.

I think a UCS scale Classic Enterprise (potentially with some swappable parts to make the various versions), and an Enterprise D would have the most appeal by far. Paramount may be inclined to license a modern ship like Discovery but I’m just not sure that the market is there for it. Likewise, the Kelvin films are probably too far out of the zeitgeist to be appealing.

Ideally though, I would love to see a midi scale line like the recent handful of Star Wars ships. This would allow for some of the less iconic ships like Voyager or various enemy factions to be made at a slightly more reasonable price point. However even with how many new slopes Lego has made recently it would be a real feat to make accurate ships at that scale. Speed Champions is doing some crazy bodywork though so anything is possible!

Is that why Bluebrixx lost their Star Trek license?

I would love LEGO Star Trek, but I cannot imagine too many minifig scaled sets. There are no iconic "smaller" vehicles or buildings, like in Syar Wars. Maybe shuttles, but that's all I can think of.
Non-minifig starships, or BrickHeadz wouldn't be enough.
Just a bridge alone would look weird for me.

Oh, that would never happen. Unless you’re murdered right before someone steals those unprotected sets…

@Yooha:
Off the top of my head, TOS had a shuttle, the original films may have had an updated shuttle, TNG definitely had a new shuttle, DS9 had the Runabouts, and there were a few sporadic small craft that made appearances. Bajorans had a fighter, which may be the most common of those misc vessels, but I think Spock flew a solar sailer that might be the most memorable of that class. But you can build all the big stuff in midi scale, and it opens up tons of possibilities.

Well, it seems very unlikely. And getting anything that even remotely makes sense is even less likely.

For starters, only iconic objects are spaceships, and spaceships (other than shuttles :D and these are not too spectacular) are very difficult to design, because they are ridiculously enormous, with many components (like the "saucer" part or engine nacelle pylons) wide and thin.
So we get extremely limited space for iconic parts of interior like bridge or teleportation chamber, even further limited by internal structure.
But that is just my opinion.
On the other hand I never expected we would get such a complexed minifig-scale ornithopter, or Horizon's Tallneck, so - who knows...

And remember, the quality of the bricks on these sets is horrible. I know, because I tried some.

if it happens, at least the minifigs will be less nightmarish than the BlueBrixx ones. I doubt we'll see anything quite as weird-concept as the "cloaked " starship models though (made entirely of clear bricks)

I'd prefer an Alien theme myself.

I would actually spend to get (ucs sets?) whatever big star wars sets are called.
For Star Trek.
They got characters for minifigues, have ever seen action figures...? also borg...
Imagine a borg ucs
You get star trek licence hmmm star trek, next generation, enterprize, lower decks for kids, DS9
All newer shows, Voyager,Discovery,Picard,Prodigy,strange new worlds, star fleet academy

regular sets, holodeck. bridge, bar, so many scenes offship,
alien characters
Most of all ships....

A Star Trek theme is an unrealistic expectation to have, Icons set(s) is what would happen. Star Trek has little to no appeal to younger audiences (especially since most of the good shows are 20+ years old) which ultimately means Lego wouldn't invest in a full line. The Trek vs Wars cultural rivalry petered out in the 2000s. I've only recently gotten into Star Trek recently despite my dad trying to get me to watch for years in the past (he managed to get me to into classic Doctor Who and Stargate SG-1 instead).

I'd personally want Star Trek TOS sets because they have the most classic Sci-Fi charm (and it's the one I got into first lol), but any depiction of an Enterprise poses the obvious scale and budgetary issues... it's simply not something most people have the budget or space for. The only worthwhile compromise I see is a Midi-scale ship exterior with a disconnected Minifig-scale bridge, that way you get the best of both worlds.

Most of all, see how big star wars is, star trek could be just as big.

Doctor Who is pretty culturally irrelevant outside of the UK now, and Star Trek merchandise sells well to older fans. That's a series that would make as much sense as Queer Eye and less than BTS.

lego, please do not star trek! even better, stop contracts with disney! At this point lego should go back to their roots of " Lego, everyday a new toy" or Jack the Lego-maniac. That stuff is nostalgic and the real Lego fans will appriciate it! For everyone who came over a franchise to lego isnt a true legofan in my opinion.
The media is dictating what to do next, humanity is hopeless... be craetive! Build your own Star Trek sets if its necessary.. the parts are all there, just grab'em and start building!
Is there realy a need for every freakin niche getting lego sets!?!
Does anyone think of the invironment? The more lego sets, the more plastic inhabits our earth. Lego produces millions of minifigures each year.. until for every human on earth has a whole house full of them or what!?

Actually Lego is one companies trying to be earth friendly compaired to rest world. Probably most friendly trying to be ecofriendly. And as for a collector, That why buy another house to hold your collection. You do realize lego almost collapsed back then. You could go off the grid... How are you even typing here? Whatever you are useing is not eco friendly. They make few hundred... a year for minifigures... plus or minus...

I do like lego a lot and i think they should make more sets! But i do not think that they have to put their hands in all possible licenses. What i want to say is that the fans of lego buying anyways! And the community is way bigger than it was in 2000.. There is simply no need for all sorts of licenses. How big they wanna go!? Where is an end? In the beginning lego was for kids, now its not only for adults as well, it will become for everyone! Everyone Welcome! i think that goes too far... they should encourage people to build with what they have and taking a set apart to build something different from it instead of buying new or just let it gather dust and leave it unplayed on a shelf. There is simply too much demand. Keep it down a notch folks! In the end lego does what their fans want in some way or another..
Thats my blurb of thoughts.

One can only dream....
I thought we might have managed to get Doctor Who sets with its arrival on Disney+, but that hasn't happened, and to me that seemed far more likely than getting Star Trek sets.
Whilst the Bluebrixx licencing ending is interesting, I think it's more likely that Paramount is just trying to save money wherever possible and are pulling the plug on unnecessary costs like toys aimed at adults, rather than trying to expand their partnerships.

Star Trek is definitely one of the last massive IPs that Lego has yet to land. I think a one-off set or even an entire theme that runs multiple years would do very well. It's evergreen in popularity, always has new content coming out, and it has a built-in diehard fan base that would eat up any 18+ set or sets with collectible value. Literally dozens of characters, ships, and setpieces that you could make before diving into anything terribly obscure.

I think probably the biggest obstacle has always been that the sleek hulls and gentle curves of Federation ships are difficult to make look good with building blocks, even when aggressively using slopes. I don't think anyone has truly nailed it. Bluebrixx did fairly well (I think their Voyager looks excellent) but anything with a saucer is really, really tricky. Most of the time it either looks too flat or too chunky on top.

My interest personally is in the playset potential, I think you could absolutely make a set like the Enterprise-D bridge with Picard's ready room attached to the side and give it 8 minifigs and it would be iconic. Same with any main bridge from any of the shows. Then you throw in Main Engineering, Sickbay, the transporter room, the briefing room, crew quarters, Ten Forward... just loads of potential.

I say this as a huge fan of Star Trek in all its incarnations: this seems exceedingly unlikely. Star Trek has not had a successful mass market toy line in almost 30 years (since Playmates in the late 90s peak Trek popularity), and only limited success in the specialty market since then. Despite Trek fan protestations that there is a market, recent attempts have gone very poorly (Playmates in 2009, McFarlane, Playmates again).
As much as I would love a toy line with LEGO’s attention to quality (because other recent efforts certainly were lacking), experience shows the market is simply not there.
Maaaaybe something like an Ideas set or two with a hero ship would work but I can’t see anything more beyond that. I would LOVE to be proved wrong.

I typically disagree with... well, everything @AustinPowers say... but in this case, I will say that the BlueBrixx Star Trek sets were solid. I wouldn't strictly say the parts are better than LEGO; I had a few that I needed to replace because they were malformed, and the clutch is more consistent with LEGO for sure. The quality of the first wave of sets from BlueBrixx was mediocre in design and execution, as well. BUT - they really got on the ball with subsequent waves, and I'm glad to have a number of them in my collection. They're a lot of fun.

Of course, I'd LOVE to see what LEGO can do with the license, if it happens. They'd cook up some really awesome stuff.

I'd love to see midi-scale Star Trek ships, but I have doubts they'd ever do UCS-style ships; I doubt certain ships could be made stable at that scale, with the obvious exception of a Borg Cube. Also, I'm reminded of this DeviantArt gallery: https://www.deviantart.com/hyphencubed

Used to be, I'd say that because the competition was doing it, LEGO wouldn't. Yet, that's proven as untrue more recently.

Off the top of my head, LEGO has recently acquired the license to themes other companies have made stuff from for years--NASCAR (MEGA), Doctor Who (could swear Character Toys did some sets in addition to figures), CAT (MEGA), Deere (Best Lock annd MEGA), Beatles (MEGA), and Mario Bros. (K'Nex).

So, Star Trek LEGO is definitely possible.

Lego is I Hope for money/profit. They would be nuts to pass on Star Trek, with a Profit margin as big as Star Wars.

I might buy a midi-scale Enterprise (TOS or TNG for preference). I'd *definitely* buy a CMF series: if they released a series for each TV series, I'd probably buy them all. But I'm not sure I'd keep buying more and more sets over the years - I don't see Star Trek as being a line like Star Wars where they can keep churning over the same models every 5 years.

I'm a bigger Doctor Who fan, but I'm not even sure how many Doctor Who sets I would buy - again, the main thing that would interest me would be the minifigs.

I think instead of chasing licenses and being stuck trying to replicate TV sets, I'd prefer Lego to pursue innovative and interesting themes of their own that lead to a wide variety of different models (like Monkey Kid - it would be great to see something similar with Greek mythology as an inspiration, for example, or non-European sources if they'd rather not take a Western focus).

@cody6268:
There were at least two brands that made Batman sets before 2006, LotR was also held by another brand during the release of those films, and only came over to TLG when they got the license for the Hobbit trilogy. Heck, Hasbro released Transformers through _two_ house brands (one of which got sued into oblivion for infringing on TLG's brand new part designs). I don't know if TLG had the first Spiderman license, but they lost it to someone else, and then regained it with the full Marvel license. Another brand got Despicable Me 3 before TLG got Minions 2/DM4.

And TLG has lost some licenses (TMNT and SpongeBob that I can think of). Going forward there are going to be few truly major licenses that have not, in whole or in part, changed hands at least once. Of the licenses TLG currently holds the only two I know of for certain where this is not the case are Star Wars and Harry Potter. Star Wars was one of the first three IPs that TLG licensed (along with Pooh and Mickey), and nobody else was really in that game for construction toys. Harry Potter was licensed from the very first movie. Neither appears to be going anywhere soon.

No. For that to happen, Roddenberry would have had to be a better marketing genius than Lucas, and he created a sci-fi IP where money didn't exist.

My dad would be obsessed!

Pass.

"I say this as a huge fan of Star Trek in all its incarnations: this seems exceedingly unlikely. Star Trek has not had a successful mass market toy line in almost 30 years (since Playmates in the late 90s peak Trek popularity), and only limited success in the specialty market since then. Despite Trek fan protestations that there is a market, recent attempts have gone very poorly (Playmates in 2009, McFarlane, Playmates again).
As much as I would love a toy line with LEGO’s attention to quality (because other recent efforts certainly were lacking), experience shows the market is simply not there.
Maaaaybe something like an Ideas set or two with a hero ship would work but I can’t see anything more beyond that. I would LOVE to be proved wrong. "

This is a very reasonable outlook. I think Star Trek fans probably skew a little older than most other IPs that Lego associates with, given that Star Trek is approaching 60 years old as a franchise and arguably peaked in popularity about 25-30 years ago. So, knowing that, a typical toy line similar to Star Wars, Super Mario, or Batman does seem pretty unlikely. Instead we can look at what they might do with a large direct-to-consumer 18+ set similar to Dune or the recent LOTR sets. Something that really goes all out with the size and detail and sells itself to the adult fans. I also think we've seen some successful products in recent years catering to adult Star Trek fans, such as the Eaglemoss ship line and the Tomy Enterprise. There's definitely an appetite but I think it does need to skew toward that older audience first.

The amount of money I would spend on Lego Star Trek would traumatise my bank account so much. Having the crews of each series as minifigs, paired with display models of the ships, even if they were on the scale of the 75377 or 75376, it would be amazing. The dream of seeing Janeway, Seven of Nine, Jadzia Dax, Worf and most of all Jean Luc Picard as minifigs would be a dream come true.

I'm almost one of those Trek fans. I think Star Trek ended with Voyager.

Oh well, that's still much better than that *other* Star ____ franchise, which ended after only two movies. Or maybe it did make it to three legit movies with Rogue One. Space teddy bears need not apply.

And much as I like Star Trek—ahem, the real Star Trek prior to 2001—I am sick of Lego licenses in general. The fun with Lego is using your imagination; I'm so grateful I grew up with an open-ended Lego instead of nothing but IP. I got to make up my own sci-fi franchise with my space Lego. It had a lot of heavily Trek-inspired elements, but it was still its own thing with its own unique history and people. I love that.

Shatner bust.

A lego StarTrek theme? Starts making room on the shelves by boxing the SW-sets up.

Star Wars does nothing for me. Star Trek on the other hand.... my wallet is crying at the thought of it in LEGO.

And remember, every decoration you see there is a print. "

And remember, the quality of the bricks on these sets is horrible. I know, because I tried some."
You must be the most unlucky customer of these sets then. The quality of the ones I got is better than anything I had from LEGO in recent times, plus no missing pieces, whereas three of my latest LEGO sets had missing pieces (and even customer service acknowledged that they have got more problems than usual in that area currently).
By the way, my friends who have some of these Star Trek sets are also extremely happy with them and would have loved to see the licence renewed. "

I typically disagree with... well, everything @AustinPowers say... but in this case, I will say that the BlueBrixx Star Trek sets were solid. I wouldn't strictly say the parts are better than LEGO; I had a few that I needed to replace because they were malformed, and the clutch is more consistent with LEGO for sure. The quality of the first wave of sets from BlueBrixx was mediocre in design and execution, as well. BUT - they really got on the ball with subsequent waves, and I'm glad to have a number of them in my collection. They're a lot of fun.

Of course, I'd LOVE to see what LEGO can do with the license, if it happens. They'd cook up some really awesome stuff."

Deformed pieces, missing pieces, pieces with too much clutch, pieces with too little clutch, sets that have poor design, tiles full of micro-scratches,.... These are all issues I had with some BB sets.

But hey, no stickers, and LEGO bad....

I have built many a LEGO set and: never had inconsistent clutch, deformed pieces or tiles full of micro-scratches. And only ever had 2 missing pieces, which could easily be ordered and appeared on my doorstep about one week later.

How anyone can say that BB has better quality than LEGO with a straight face is beyond me.

Please yes!!

As an AFOL who has built Star Trek models of the ships at displays. I know, for a fact that, they're fans out there who would purchase Lego Star Trek. I think a UCS range plus medi-scale range of the ships would work perfectly. As the lower price pointnif medi-scale appeals to me. UCS Star Trek ships would be far to expensive for me.

However, you only have a limited number of famous ships before you run into the realms of ships that have appeared for 2 seconds. Which as you move through the franchise it doesn't take long until you have run out of ships that would actually sell. Unlike Star Wars where everyone knows all the ships because it's so famous. The other problem is retail price. A bridge with full cast of Voyager which would 10 minifigures plus the Bridge itself. Your looking at £70. A Star Trek range would not be for children. Which is where the majority of Lego's sales come from and there main target audience.

Honestly, I think we're looking a pipe dream. Unlike Star Wars, Star Trek hasn't really got a young audience. And before everyone says what about Prodigy. Well given the fact it was cancelled by Paramount and saved by Netflix. No one is sure about its future. That's one kids show in 58 years. Ultimately this would be a range for adults. Which is basically the Icons range. An Icons Enterprise maybe?/highly likely. A full Star Trek range/ highly unlikely.

Its still a movie though. Its just how things are done in the age of streaming. Its no different to all the various made for Netflix and the like films that have come out in recent years.

So apparently you haven't built new LEGO sets from the past two years or so, plus haven't built BlueBrixx Star Trek sets of the last two waves. Or Switzerland miraculously only gets perfect LEGO sets and the worst from BlueBrixx.

Seriously, I have been building LEGO sets for over forty years, and while I agree with you that early BlueBrixx sets couldn't hold a candle to even the most mediocre of LEGO sets, at the moment (and actually for more than a year now) I am experiencing the exact opposite.

Nearly every single LEGO set I have built during that time had one or several missing pieces (and I am still waiting for the replacements for my 60420 that I had ordered from customer service over a month ago.) Microscratches on tiles are now a common occurance (something I never had with LEGO over the decades), and large scratches on transparent pieces are the norm since they switched to MABS for those. And as for clutch consistency, that from my experience is now also a mixed bag with LEGO. Especially 1x1 modified plates seem to range from falling off almost from looking at them to in some cases so strong that they tend to break when removing them again.

Conversely the quality of the BlueBrixx sets I bought recently has been excellent. No missing pieces, no deformed or scratched pieces, perfect prints (even if over several pieces).

So no, my attitude isn't generally "LEGO bad, BlueBrixx perfect", but my recent experience has led me to the clear conclusion that LEGO's quality is diminishing while the alternatives are getting better, and getting better fast.

Star Trek ships have a far more elegant appearance than Star Wars ships (with lots of greebling), so I don't think they translate well to Lego format. The ones from Bluebrixx look godawful IMO.

Before EWOKS, there were tribbles....

This was a weird statement for me to read as someone who doesn't recognize 90% of the stuff in the Star Wars theme. Even the movies are purportedly full of ships and characters I'm confident I've never seen in my life.

And yet there's at least one licensed Star Trek Monopoly set...

@AustinPowers: I have no experience with BlueBrixx (I would never have heard of them if they hadn't been mentioned here), but the only times recently I've had missing pieces, I found out after ordering the pieces that I'd made a mistake, and I'd simply lost the piece after opening the bag it was in and dumping the parts out. Except in the case of 10312 where the error was on Lego's part, but the error wasn't that the pieces weren't in the box, they were. It's just that the instructions hadn't yet told me to open the bag that they were in. As to scratched tiles and inconsistent clutch, I can't say I've encountered those at all; maybe the fact that my parts are probably coming from a different factory from yours could explain it.

You are all aware that the company called bluebrixx owns the right to make lego like sets for star trek right????

@Empire921 said:

And that company just announced they lost the license and are only allowed to sell off existing stock until mid next year.

I am certain that a certain company starting with a big D will have some objections if LEGO were ever to consider releasing Star Trek sets. Which is probably the main reason this will not happen

Also, I think the interest of the general public in Star Trek sets is probably lower than most Star Trek loving people here think.

About a year ago they featured a tiny enterprise d in one of their stock photos, I'll check my archives when I get home

Try reading the article before commenting. Very specifically the third paragraph:

"The long-running science fiction franchise has previously partnered with other construction toy brands, most recently including BlueBrixx. However, this partnership has now concluded..."

@MrBedhead , @AustinPowers , @TheOtherMike

I've gotta also but in here that I've no experience of buying BlueBrixx sets, so can't comments on their quality. But in 40+ years of Lego buying I've never had a single missing piece, warped, scratched, or otherwise damaged or deformed part. Nore have I had any sets that 'fall apart at the slightest touch'. And having had pet cats all my life too, everyone whose ever owned them too knows what a huge risk and dread Cat-strike, "This is in my spot" and their 'I wonder what happens if I nudge this towards the edge" abilities will do to Lego and other items.

Seriously gotta second @MrBedhead that you've got to be Unlucky Alf from the Fast Show @AustinPowers if thats your experience of every lego set.

Honestly surprised anyone outside the UK knows the character, didn't think that had The Fast Show in Switzerland.

@GrizBe said:
" @MrBedhead ....

I am originally from Belgium, and love me some good British comedy shows. Usually, the weirder, the better. We used to have a TV channel in Belgium that used to show all slightly off-center ones on repeat: Father Ted, The Young Ones, Bottom, Black Books, Blackadder,.... and also The Fast Show. All non-dubbed and properly subbed, as it should be.

I love me some Fast Show: Unlucky Alf getting a ticket for the FA cup final but staying home to watch it on TV because he is afraid that with his luck the game gets cancelled.... and then his TV blows up when he switches it on = comedy gold. And so are Cheesy Peas, Scorchio and so many others.

@MrBedhead : Still surprised me that you had that and such a great channel too in Belgium.

All of those are classic comedy series. I'd also recommend Red Dwarf if you've never seen it. Harry Enfield's Television Program, and Harry Enfield and Chums as these also had Paul Whitehouse (Unlucky Alfs actor) on them. And That Mitchell and Webb Look.

@Jacob1701 said:

Star Wars is the Thomas the Tank Engine of space franchises. It has a billion very different vessels and bit players because that's what sells the merch.

Know all of them. Never been the biggest Red Dwarf fan, but Enfield had some comedy gold moments.

I just love silliness, I guess. Dylan Moran as Bernard Black in Black Books grabbing a frozen bottle of red wine with a stick in it out of the freezer, smashing the glass to break it and then licking it like a kid licking a popsicle on an extremely hot day, while keeping an absolutely straight face, is, again, comedy gold.

Star Trek is SOOOOO much better than Star Wars. And I'm a huge Star Wars fan. Bring on the Star Trek sets. I will buy em all.

@TheOtherMike:
And was Roddenberry still alive when that Monopoly set came out?

@GrizBe:
I’ve had a few issues over the years. Technic R2 with the quantities of two angle connectors flipped. Wild Collection with absolutely the wrong brown curved slope. Well of Souls with a Clone Wars Anakin head. Original UCS X-Wing short one 1x1 round plate (I spent half an hour scouring the floor, checking every bag, digging through the pile of parts, and never found it). I even had a Chinese-era CMF arrive with a scuffed torso (male tennis player, so no great tragedy). But they also borked the piece count on two elements in 10179 and way overcompensated to make sure anyone who bought a 1st Edition copy didn’t get stuck partway through. And I’ve pulled extra sticker sheets from a few sets, an extra loose part from at least one set, and even a whole extra bag of parts from one set. I think the only time I called about replacement parts and didn’t get them was the original Harley Quinn. They were aware of the misprint, but couldn’t say whether or not the corrected torsos were available, and said I could only request replacement torsos once. So I declined, planning to check back with them, and forgot to follow up. So, partly my fault on that one.

"It is so weird that you are the only one having so many issues with LEGO sets. Multiple sets with missing pieces, so many tiles with micro-scratches, tiles that fall off with the "slightest touch"....
Either you are like Unlucky Alf from the Fast Show, or you just have a grudge against LEGO and are lying without even realising it."
Yes, it is indeed weird, that these issues exist at all. Especially because like I said I have been building LEGO sets for over forty years, and this trend of diminishing quality is relatively recent, like about one or two years at max.
I know there was a period of "brittle brown" where pieces of certain colours just broke, but that happened during my dark ages. Likewise the period where stickers disintegrated after a short while, from what I gather in the early 2000s.

The LEGO from my childhood didn't have any quality issues. Neither did the LEGO from when I came out of my dark ages about 2010 or thereabouts to roughly two years ago. From them on the issues I mentioned became ever more prominent. I still have loads of unbuilt sets from between 2010 and about 2022, and whenever I open and build one of those I can immediately spot the quality difference versus current sets (like the aforementioned 60420).
And I am by far not the only one who has these issues. Two friends of mine have even stopped buying LEGO entirely because they don't accept the quality issues anymore, especially at the ever rising prices.

One easy way to spot the difference is mold marks. These used to be well hidden on the inside of pieces (1 by x tiles for example) or at least relatively small. For a while now mold marks are getting bigger, less well finished, and generally much more noticeable.
If you have pieces with highly visible mold marks, chances are high that these are recent pieces. Are the mold marks hidden or hardly noticeable? You can be sure these are older, pre-2020s pieces.

Lastly, why should I hold a grudge against LEGO? They have given me decades of enjoyment with my hobby.

100 % DAY 1 MUST BUY!

Those amazing colours... red, blue, yellow and white.

TBH, I can't imagine what these sets would cost if done by Lego nowadays. Good luck being able to afford a UCS Enterprise!

@GrizBe: Missing or incorrect pieces are very rare for me, but two that stick in my head (partially because of that very rarity) are my copy of 6659 that, instead of having one right door and one left door, had two of one of them (don't remember which) and my copy of 8758 that was missing a 1x2x2 brick. That one sticks in my head for two reasons. One, because there was a chunk of plastic about the size of the missing piece in the box, don't know what it came off of, but it wasn't a misshapen piece or anything. Two, because when I called Lego to get a replacement, I had to tell them what page the part was added, because (if memory serves) this was just when they were starting to list the inventory in the backs of instruction manuals, and that set didn't have that.

As much as I love Star Trek, I've grown up on The Kelvin Timeline. I haven't seen all of Discovery, Picard, Strange New Worlds, Lower Decks, or Prodigy, which are shows where LEGO would MOST LIKELY start making sets. They can sets based off The Original Series or The Next Generation, but I wouldn't care as much because they haven't aged that well in my mind.

All in all, if we DO get any LEGO Star Trek, I want the Enterprise from The Kelvin Timeline, and maybe even Spock's Jellyfish Ship.

A bridge diorama from TOS with all the crew included I would throw money at. But I personally wouldn't be interested in anything post ENT, with the exceptions of the Kelvin trilogy or Picard, for reasons that are not for discussion here.

With the ousting of the odious "Redstone" (They changed it from Rothstein to avoid association with the infamous gangster Arnold Rothstein despite being involved in organised crime themselves) clan from Paramount there is some hope for Star Trek moving forward.

The incompetent management that let Secret Hideout essentially squat on the Star Trek TV production licence despite them running the brand into the ground is now largely gone and now Paramount has the film and TV rights under one roof again. (And there is zero sign of JJ or his clique having any interest in continuing the Kelvin or the weird hybrid timeline Kurtzman constructed on screen nor is there any sign anyone wants to watch it)

So it is possible the soul-less venture capital guys who took over Paramount will want to exploit Star Trek even more just more successfully than the previous regime. Something like a Lego collab using popular Star Trek continuity and characters is cheap and easy money. The kind of money those guys like. It would also help to bring attention back to Star Trek with the general public since "Hey, they're making Star Trek Lego" is the kind of thing that people send on to their friends or which can fill news "content".

Whether there is any hope of Star Trek being revived with a new series in the old continuity, I see little. They have not only produced bad Star Trek but so much of it (Due to broadcasting schedule constraints being removed with streaming there is little incentive not to over-exploit and dilute any popular "IP", see also the glut of Star Wars shows.) that it has diluted the brand and taken all the enthusiasm for it from the old olds, non-fans from the same background as the old fans and general audiences. Only the nutrek fans remain.

But there is a lot of overlap between AFOLs and Star Trek fans so it seems like a good idea. Only the characters are almost all live action (And I doubt anyone would be so insane to reference characters only seen in the Animated Series, Prodigy or even Lower Decks) and so one presumes image rights and maybe residual cuts would cut into doing a CMF line outside generic Klingon, Romulan, Borg etc.

Make it so.

I’d buy the Enterprise, Enterprise D, Deep Space 9 and Voyager at almost any price point if done well, and I’d really really like the main characters from each of their respective series. Not too bothered about Enterprise, and Discovery, Picard and Strange New Worlds are unnecessary, but the first 4/5 iconic ships (and a space station) in UCS style would be amazing.
