LEGO Dungeons and Dragons Review!

Honestly, it’s a little exhausting to get teased a theme or set I’d be interested in only to be thrown some $300 investment that would occupy an entire piece of furniture in my apartment. I wish Lego would do more in the $50 range for adult oriented sets.

Why can’t we just bring back a castle theme? I’m tired of all the castle related things being locked behind a $300 pay wall. I just like to have a good castle and pirate theme again. I’m so tired of all the licensed stuff.

My favorite part about the Minifigs (though correct me if I’m wrong) is that all of them have gloves and no skin-colored printing on their torso necklines, so you can swap the heads between figures as you please. Really neat and perfect for D&D character creation. I wish more sets did that, too!

I would love to see a D&D set at a price point that isn’t half my paycheck. A $50 dice tower would be a must buy for me. It would also be nice to see them really dig into the idea of using mini figures to play the actually game.

What annoys me about this set is that it could have been a great line with a Tavern set, a battle in the forest set, the gelatinous dungeon set, the tower set and the dragon set all at different price points and inculding figures to build up your party! Instead we're forced to buy a giant 360 dollar set if you want to have any of it. I really don't like the direction Lego has gone lately with making 1 off giant sets aimed at adults instead of a whole line of smaller sets like they do for standard themes

I love seeing a Dragonborn Bard being incorporated in the set. I hope they make other colours of it's head.

Printed dragon eyes?! CONFIRMED!

The dragon man without a bio is likely supposed to be a Dragonborne Bard.

Bro dropped it earlier than 1st ed

Something that hasn't been talked about very much is the spectacular balance of colors. The red dragon, grey castles, beige rocks, blue and purple roofs, and green grass is amazing. Additionally, things like the gold/blue flags, bright blue shore flowers, and various creatures inject even more color. There is such a beautifully varied color palette here.

Oh my goodness gracious jeez that’s huge

I really wish the set could’ve gave us some dice that could’ve made the whole thing even better or some character sheets inside of the instruction booklet

It's great that you got this review out so early. It's too bad they missed the opportunity to scatter even more weapon and armor upgrades all over the place, that would be awesome. Speaking of the dragon from Gringott's, I'd love to see someone build an alternate of that set into a D&D build.

Love the colors, visual power, adventurers, and brick built monsters. That Dragon may be the best ever. However, that price seems a bit steep for how hollow it is. (Hasbro has their hands in this.) The tower isn't even fully built up. And only 6 proper figs for $360 is ridiculous. Skeletons are a cop out. No minifig monsters; not even a Lich or some goblins? Shouldn't have to buy into the CMF series to properly fill this set up.

Man, if I didn't already have a bunch of medieval sets, I would consider this the best set ever. But I already have a castle, and a dragon, and an inn. So it's a bunch of stuff I already have all beautifully integrated together.

Gotta say I'm a little disappointed by the lack of play features and details. Especially for the dragon. The lack of articulation makes it look unthreatening when he's supposed to be wrapping around the tower. He comes off like he's just standing there waiting for his friends to visit.

I wish these had been split up into seperate sets for the enemies and tower/tavern. I feel it would have been a great step into d&d as a full series to let players mix and match as they see fit. (mind, I just want the dragon so...)

I’m an enormous D&D fan and this set is absolutely stunning. Every little detail just makes me smile. I fully intend on getting this since I actually use Lego minifigs as game minis

Back when I submitted ideas onto LEGO Ideas I tried these concepts based on Star Wars: The Old Republic where you could receive a random figure design to represent the player character, inspired by the game's character customization. While those ideas never went anywhere, I'm glad that something similar has appeared in this set! And I'd certainly like to see something similar in the future!

Thanks for making a shorter review of this set! I can’t exactly watch an hour long review on my break at work, but this video is the perfect size for the time I have right now. While this set is definitely out of my budget, I’m definitely gonna have to pick up some of the minifigures here like the dragon guy at the very least. I love that the minifigure torsos & legs don’t have any skin tone showing so you can mix & match the parts to make a dragon rogue or an elf cleric. This is a really great set & definitely worth the hefty price tag. Thanks for the review.
