#2688 BLOG UPDATE: Tips&Bricks Set Review Process

šŸ—£ļøYou asked and we answered! Today we pull back the curtain to show you our set review processā€¦ and the secret method to our madness!Ā 



We are part of the LEGO Ambassador Network (LAN), which makes us an RLFM: Registered LEGO Fan Media. We receive set offers and can request sets. šŸŸ  We are free to score our sets honestly: LEGO does not control our score and we are not obligated to give a positive review to keep receiving LEGO sets. šŸŸ 




We now score on a 2ļøāƒ£5ļøāƒ£-point scale ā€“ but anyone remember when we used to grade on 100?? We have since refined our scoring system. Some key things to remember:


ā­•ļø Parts: As MOC-makers, we want to celebrate great parts! Just because a set has a low score, doesnā€™t mean the parts arenā€™t useful.


ā­•ļø Minifigs: We love it when there are new elements to customize figs and dolls! Just because a score is low doesnā€™t mean the parts arenā€™t cool.


ā­•ļø Techniques: We take techniques very seriously. We also recognize not every builder is at the same level. So we try to highlight the target audience.


ā­•ļø Value for Money: We look at more than just price per part. We try to make comparisons to comparable sets but we recognize this is a subjective category. We are a team of humans giving our opinions and we revisit this category often.Ā 


What do you think of our set review process? Is there an area youā€™d love to see us score?
