Lots of discounts, 2X insiders points and gifts, check it out!

You didn't even mention neither Barad Dur nor Dungeons & Dragons... :O

People need to have more respect for the Titan Dragon mech from this year. Not only the biggest Lego mech of all time, but it also has so much articulation thanks to the insane building techniques...
Oh who am I kidding, most Lego fans will just see it as "another Ninjago set"...

My absolute personal favorite set this year was 100% the Lego Dungeons and Dragons: Red Dragons Tale. Being a Lego and DND fan it really was a joy to put together with all the references and details. Especially the fact that it is a playable one shot campaign as well it has been one of the first time I’ve actually PLAYED with a Lego set since I was a kid. Getting to DM it with my friends has made it really my favorite of the year by far and the build looks amazing to display too

I am surprised the Creator 3-in-1 line was not referenced more in the video. The whole theme was great this year with at least 4 that standouts. The Retro Camera, Forrest Animals: Red Fox, the Wild Safari Animals, and the Space Astronaut were all amazing.

It's clear from your picks that you actually care about the building experience and creativity involved. I’m sure most lists (including mine!) will have all the big popular IP sets, but it's always nice to see your perspective on Lego :)

That cat is actually so charming. It has a quality to it that no other Lego set has. I don’t know why it’s left such an impression on me but I absolutely love it.

I love this video, waiting for it every year. But I was missing a bit two categories: best €300+ set, and best €50- sets (or other threshold, just zxpensive and cheap category, or the other way around: more than X pieces, and less than Y pieces).
And I liked what you did a few years ago, with us voting before for each category, it's nice to see the community opinion!
Thanks again for your overall quality work! You're awarded for my fav chanel of the year 😉

For me, the nostalgia award is taken away by the Batman the animated series wall display, hands down.

[joewalker]

Love your videos, Tiago. No padding, just straight to the point while still being super informative and expanding where necessary. So easy to watch. Thanks and all the best!

The Ornithopter looks so nice if you swap out the red parts for black, it looks sick for display and is packed with features, as a lego model should be.

[jazzbee]

Coles Titan Mech definitely deserves to be on this list imo

[rathaang]

I have been waiting for this video all year.I love these yearly reviews

[nbnR]

I always appreciate that Tiago has his own opinions and tastes and isn't too shy about calling a spade a spade. I might not always agree with how he weighs different aspects but the consistency is really valuable when I want to figure out if I'm personally going to enjoy a product.

The retro radio also takes the award of “only owned by LAN members”. Always enjoy these yearly videos thanks. 2024 was also the year of when you open a bag all you get is spares and 2*1 bricks…. Or the exact opposite.

[bloodymarvelous]

It's good to see a best of 2024 set without any of the biggest and most expensive sets.

Beauty and building pleasure can be found in smaller more affordable sets.
Unfortunately, none of these sets are in my collection...

[TheB]

You built 200 sets this year??
No wonder you value building experience so much 😅

[cleefy]

Couldn't agree more with your final choice - the radio was without a doubt one of my favourite ever builds. I was constantly stopping in awe to show my wife progress during construction.

[Ridnarhtim]

I know it got a lot of hate (rightfully) for its outrageous price, but the Zelda Deku Tree really is fantastic imo. It was a ton of fun to build and it's just so full of cute and fun little details.

[snuggles]

The polaroid camera was my fave lego set of this year, building it with my fiancée and trying to guess how the mechanisms come together was a lovely time :)
