LEGO Avatar 1 Full Wave Review

The LEGO Avatar theme released in 2022 was leading up to a second wave of products for the Avatar: The Way of Water movie. Now how does the first wave actually compare? Is it good value unlike the Way of the Water LEGO sets? Come and find out on my review

Borrowed a few sets for the video and bought the Floating Mountains one myself. Views and opinions are my own.

Thank you LEGO for sending this set for review. Views and opinions are my own.

2002, 2022 who cares? They're just numbers.

By the way, consider subscri... oh wait

[frankiesomeone]

The environments are a big part of the movie, I think including some terrain and vegetation is a very good move.

[liamsgreatbitgaming]

I would disagree on the landscape structures: the big appeal of Avatar is the beauty of it all

[briqtastic]

I was very skeptical about the Avatar sets but to be honest, they look very nice for the fans.

[joevictor]

I'm definitely getting the Jake and Neytiri Banshee set. I wish it was a diorama style one though because that's probably the most iconic scene from the whole film IMO. I might get some of the others if they're on sale. I'm glad they brought back the long arms and legs for the Avatars and Navi characters. Just wish they could've done it sooner so we could've had it for characters like Jack Skellington and Big Bird

Fun Fact AMP suits aren't military in nature
They were originally built as utility platform for use on the Moon and that's why by default they come with pressurised cockpit

i have a dispaly of most of these sets in my room with toruk hanging out above them. all the pandoran bush connected is really cool, plus the glow in the dark parts really just tie it all together

[deepseacocoon]

I love this theme, hope to see more sets

[RJMBricks]

the feet of the toruk model are so satisfying for some reason

[potawatadingdong]

This wave looks much better than the Avatar 2 one. I'm not even a fan of the movies but there are a couple things in this wave that would be neat to have.

[BOYGOSGO]

I have every LEGO Avatar set and I can honestly say the only thing I would change about any of them is ball joints on the Banshee and Tulcun

[TheLegoJungle]

As a fan of (exotic) creature designs in both film an Lego, I’m itching close to buying one of the animal dominated Avatar sets.

[MaybeBeni]

Absolutely love the tree of souls set. Glad I picked one up for less than the original price!

[rytlocknroll]

People really be complaining about lack of vegetation when they can just apply more vegetation to the scene themselves, and modify it to their liking.

[Krasniysharigg]

0:52 they are weirdly tall, right. Like in the movie. It really cool that they does it in the right way (whereas they could just use minifigir for na-vi, and short minifigure for people). By the way they still has extremely lego-ish look.

[funnyturtle]

The minifigures are weird with longer arms and legs but I think it adds a lot to show the real scale of the blue people

[zaidiatoranimation]

You should do something like this for Lego marvel

[paulevertsen]

I have the banshee flight, and the wave 2 skimwing and tulkun. Definitely still want the tree and ilu. I love that the minifigs are bigger, looks really nice in a minifig line up

[Carboxylated]

Display sets for adults who were probably teens at the time of the original movie. I can see why they did that. However a UCS style gunship or the white space shuttle looking craft would be more appropriate IMO. Maybe a creator expert style of the mech suit. I got a few of these but was not impressed. Wave 2 is moderately improved but we are still lacking a UCS style expensive big and highly detailed set. Otherwise this theme sits as an investment theme in my AFOL eyes. The collectibility and unique pieces make it so. Awesome production value and great review Tiago. Cheers.

[ncknamed]

Just want to say that I really like these full wave reviews and you should definitely do more of them. It gives tiny sets a chance to shine and gives a nice comparison!
