AMAZING DISCOVERIES: Unopened LEGO Sets of High Value and Rarity from Youtuber- Emmasaurus
Hey party people, good morning! Welcome to the Christy crew, where we’ve got all the bricks and Minifigs in Austin, Texas. And let me tell you, it’s hotter than the sun out here, a scorching 107 degrees! Who would’ve thought we’d be roasting like LEGO figurines in an oven? I guess Mother Nature didn’t get the memo about cooler climates down south. But hey, we’re here to have some fun, so let’s dive into today’s adventure!
So, we just got back from brick Fair Virginia, and boy, do we have some juicy news for you. Our local bricks and Minifigs store here in Austin has a treasure trove of rare LEGO sets, and I’m dying to get my hands on them. We heard they have a 3200-piece LEGO set, and of course, I had some major FOMO when we found out about it while we were out of town. But fear not, my fellow LEGO enthusiasts, we’re here now, and we’re gonna check it out together!
Okay, before we head inside, can we just appreciate this adorable koala sticker I found? I mean, come on, it’s impossible not to be excited after finding something this cute! Alright, let’s go, let’s go, let’s go!
Wow, we’ve just stepped foot inside bricks and Minifigs, and guess what I found? The most exclusive LEGO item I’ve ever seen! Prepare yourselves, folks, because I present to you the LEGO Batman shot glass! That’s right, it even comes with a little LEGO Batman figure inside. I’m calling it, we’re done here. I mean, come on, who needs anything else when you have a LEGO Batman shot glass, am I right?
But seriously, folks, let’s take a look at what we have along the front here. We’ve got some massive sets, starting with the iconic Disney castle from 2016. We’ve also got the Chinese New Year Temple Fair from 2020, Bowser’s airship, and the Pirates of Barracuda Bay. Now, let me tell you, I’m devastated that I missed out on that pirate set. When I saw it in its box, I was kinda like, “Eh, where will I even put it in my LEGO city?” But now that I see it built, I’m like, “Holy ship, Batman! I need it!” I’m definitely getting some major FOMO here.
And speaking of castles, check out this bad boy, the King’s Castle from 2013. It’s actually LEGO’s last big castle theme, and boy, does it look impressive. We’ve got these lion Knights battling some black dragons, and I gotta say, it’s pretty sweet. I don’t even remember this set, but now that I’m looking at it, I’m like, “Man, I definitely need this in my collection.”
But let’s not dwell on the ones that got away, like the Jurassic Park gate. This set is T-Rex-cellent, I must say. The minifigs are awesome too. It’s a shame I couldn’t snag it, but hey, at least there are more Jurassic Park sets on the shelf now. I thought this was my last chance, but LEGO proved me wrong once again.
Okay, let’s turn our attention to the adorable, the enchanting, the magical Hogwarts Castle from Harry Potter. I mean, come on, look at that tiny car and the Whomping Willow! It’s so cute, it’s almost criminal. But here’s something I don’t understand. Why isn’t this set as popular as I expected? I mean, I don’t really get Harry Potter fans, but someone please explain this to me. On the other hand, I’m super excited for the green Gods Bank set coming out soon. It’s got such a unique design, and I can’t wait to see it on my shelf. It’s gonna be wicked!
Moving on, we’ve got the army men from Toy Story. Now, this may not be Star Wars, but it brings back so many memories. I used to make World War II and Vietnam battle scenes, and these soldiers were perfect for that. LEGO has gone military, people!
Oh, what’s this? I’ve just stumbled upon a custom minifig of Grumpy Cat. Or at least, I think it’s Grumpy Cat. It looks grumpy enough, so close enough. Let’s take a peek behind the counter, shall we? Oh look, they have some LEGO Movie 2 sets and aerial Quest sets. Speaking of which, for all you Pharaoh Quest fans out there, stay tuned, because we’ll be diving deeper into that topic in this video. And hey, have any of you played the recently dropped Overwatch 2 Invasion? I’ve been secretly enjoying it behind Emily’s back. Shh, don’t tell her! But let’s be real, I’ll probably get bored of it soon, knowing me.
Alright, we’re back to the LEGO Movie 2 sets again. You know, they just didn’t have the same magic as the first LEGO Movie. But hey, check out this awesome constructo Mech set. It’s like a giant Mech made out of construction equipment. Emmet really knows how to build some cool stuff to fight Lord Business. And speaking of Lord Business, look up there, we have his lair! And oh my, the “Where’s my pants?” thing from the movie, hilarious!
Alright, folks, now we reach the front window display, and guess what? It’s Scooby-Doo time! These sets always have their own little news story on a printed tile. This one’s about a stolen trophy, because, you know, the pumpkin dude just had to steal it. Mystery solved! And check out Scooby’s goggles, it’s one of my favorite versions of Scooby. The detail, the cute factor, it’s all there. And down below, we have some of the newer Scooby-Doo sets. But hold up, Ross wants to point out these old-school sets over here. They remind him of the movie Atlantis on Disney+. You know, those giant transparent pieces at an angle? LEGO’s been bringing them back lately, and I’m loving it.
And now, my fellow LEGO lovers, brace yourselves, because what we’re about to witness is truly mind-boggling. Can you believe the modulars we’re seeing here? It’s like a LEGO architect’s dream come true. We’ve got the brick Bank, the Pet Shop, Assembly Square, the palace Cinema, Town Hall, the fire brigade, the Parisian Restaurant, cafe corner, the detective’s office, the pet shop, Grand Emporium, and let’s not forget Diagon Alley down here. I mean, is this real life? It’s like someone decided to downsize their entire modular collection all at once. I don’t know about you, but I could never part ways with these beauties. But hey, if you’re looking to complete your modular city, you know where to go.
Alright, folks, that wraps up our incredible finds here at bricks and Minifigs in Austin, Texas. I hope you had as much fun as I did exploring these rare and expensive LEGO sets. And remember, if you want to buy and resell LEGO for a profit, keep an eye out for these gems. Until next time, stay cool, stay geeky, and keep building those LEGO dreams!
