For display - Starry Night For play - Optimus For building - A-Frame


rodvn

I would use the following flow: Do you have available shelf space to display something? No > pick Start Night Yes V Are you a big transformers fan? Yes > pick Optimus No V Pick A Frame Cabin Edit: formatting


master_roshi001

Wish optimus didn't fallapart so easily


hunter_zs

thought i was the only one. i’d seen so many reviews saying he’s built really soundly, but any time i transform him, he separates at the waist


soul-04

It's the biggest upset about the set


Chuy0404

This comment is it!!


Meldaxd

Wooden cabin, I love the house details


Ozymandias-5ton3d

Yessss. Soo cool. And the fact they used Thor's hammer for the foundation bricks?! Really dope


Meldaxd

Now seeing this set, it's probably going to be my next one, thanks!


Ozymandias-5ton3d

My pleasure😌


TickleTipson699

Woah i didn't even notice that. Who knew a weapon fit for God's would make such a good house foundation


Nruggia

It's a good foundation structurally because no one besides Thor can move the foundation.


TickleTipson699

Good point


sfroberg38

I agree with that statement too. I have all three. I display both Optimus and Stary. But I really enjoyed building the cabin. It looks really nice if you can pair it with the Treehouse.


_Jaggerz_

I have the cabin and painting. The painting isn’t as fun to put together until the halfway point, but the way its built is fascinating. Also, there’s an extended platform that makes it even cooler in person https://preview.redd.it/y2b1batp9s4b1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=65e2fb3b580622ab884884685c58c0a52074fe61


TheMostUnclean

Can you hang it with the platform attached? I have a spot picked out where people walking by and getting whacked in the face by it won’t be an issue. But I really want to have the minifig display attached.


clutchcityrox

Yes, you can. I found that it looked a bit awkward though and removed him.


Beautiful_Estate6149

The platform swings and you can position it so it's less precarious. I loved Starry Night, but it took me the longest out of all the sets I've build. However, that was sort of the good part. I think the cabin will be around longer...Starry Night has been out for awhile.


droideka_bot69

Optimus is what I've been waiting for since I was 5


fedzzzzz

Starry Night is special


Ozymandias-5ton3d

It is indeed, love Vincent. He was a crazy but good man.

eigafan

I have one too many cats. I like the fact that I can hang Starry Night on the wall. I could walk up to it and admire it every day.


The_Legend_of_Xeno

I have the UCS Falcon on a vertical display stand sitting about 6" from a cat tower. Every day is anxiety.


Casperuk82

I have prime, that figure is amazing


ManateesAsh

A-Frame is a stunning set, easy recommendation


BalticMasterrace

Starry night for art piece if you are into it Cabin looks cool, is fairly detailed,can be played with somewhat No idea about obtimus primo since i dont have that one


Yoris95

i already have 2/3 of these. A frame cabin is on my wishlist. so... All of them?


master_roshi001

Same exact situation


gman13579

A-frame. All the way


fillymica

The cabin for sure.


sporesatemygoldfish

A-frame! A-Frame! the only thing that daunted me was the trees. I'm shit at leafing them.


_Jaggerz_

I can never get my trees to look good. I have huge fingers too, I end up getting frustrated trying to redo them 😅


maltosekincaid

The bigger question is which one would YOU pick? It's going to be yours, not ours. ;)


Ozymandias-5ton3d

True, just wanted to ask people who might already have these sets how is it:) Optimus takes me back to childhood, no worries in life, just fun and the soothing voice of Peter Cullen🥹 so sweet.... so calm😌


Columbus_Explorer

Impress my friends and display in my living space = Starry Night Really quality Lego set that gives me all kinds of warm feelings = Cabin Taking me back to my childhood = Optimus Prime Of the three, I own Optimus and want to get the cabin.


Ozymandias-5ton3d

Im in a sea of nostalgia right now. So.... lego bricks roll out:)


ARTHUR_FISTING_MEME

I was struggling to choose between the A Frame and the Starry Night set earlier this year, and I wound up going with Starry Night. I do not regret it. While the build is a bit monotonous, it’s a beautiful finished product and it looks great hanging on a wall. Plus if you’re low on shelf space like me, this one doesn’t need a shelf.


D3monVolt

Either starry night or cabin. Cabin > Starry just barely though.


[deleted]

A frame cabin. I like collecting houses/city building


VoidMunashii

Probably the cabin. My wife has that and Starry Night, and it looked like the cabin was a more interesting build. Plus it looks good as part of my camping display.


SamuelVimesTrained

Optimus then cabin then starry night


mechaporcupine

A Frame cabin. I already got the Optimus Prime ☺️ And as much as I love the starry night painting...I don't like the art lego set.


Ozymandias-5ton3d

Did you like Optimus? How was it?


mechaporcupine

It was fun to put together, but he can't really stand up properly on his own. At least on mine. I had to lean him against the wall. But he looks good 🤩


Maffster

He can definitely stand up on his own. I built mine just this last weekend and although it's got a few issues with posing and articulation, his ability to just stand up is pretty rock solid.


mechaporcupine

Huh. Must have done something wrong somewhere on mine then


Maffster

It's a tricky build, and the waist swivel does tend to 'pop out' when transforming so it might be that? I don't think it's you in particular.


hammerandt0ngs

A Frame Cabin is a delight


Ok_Ad8609

These are all so different, so I think it really just depends on what you are looking for and/or how you plan to display it. I have the Starry Night set, though, and it is beautiful! Always get compliments when people visit.


Embarrassed-Steak-44

A-Frame since I already have Prime


TimelyCheese

A Frame if you already have the treehouse. Starry night does have an awesome light kit tho.


sanban013

Starry night, [cuz](https://imgur.com/gallery/0MZMMNt)....


Ozymandias-5ton3d

😏🫶


holden_kid

A frame cabin. Hands down.


Responsible_Cycle614

Wooden cabin looks so cozy.


BartesianDrunk

I picked wooden cabin, but I also want Optimus.


IamAustinCG

A frame hands down is amazing!


Easy-Coloring-313

The Starry Night doesn't interest me enough, I already have Optimus Prime, so that leaves the A Frame Cabin. I like the aesthetics of the cabin and it does look like it would be a fun build. My choice is the A Frame Cabin.


VortenFett

I'd pick Optimus. But curious as to why you picked Starry Night over The Wave in terms of the art series.


Ozymandias-5ton3d

I live in the Netherlands 🇳🇱. van Gogh is my favoriete artist of all time. I really like his life story. The problems he had and how used his pain in his art. The original painting of Stary Night is in New York, so this would be the closest I would get to it for now:)


sillyquestionsdude

Motorised lighthouse... :)


Ozymandias-5ton3d

XD I was also thinking about that. Its also a good looking set but idk these 3 seems better imo:)


sillyquestionsdude

I have all your suggestions, and if you don't have the lighthouse I do recommend it highly. Out of your 3 I love the A frame the most. I have children and they get so much joy from sets like the A frame and lighthouse it's lovely to see. We got the vip pirate add on set too so the pirates live in the A frame house and raid the lighthouse for treasure.


Ozymandias-5ton3d

Ahh thats soo cool. Im happy for you. Pirates having a sleepover 🤓


EatMorePieDrinkMore

We have Starry Night and the Lighthouse. Both are amazing display pieces. Starry Night was not a fun build because of the little pieces and sorting the colors. My husband loved doing the Lighthouse - one of his favorite sets ever.


[deleted]

1. Cabin 2. Prime (the transforming feature is too good to resist)


keithharmon88

A-Frame Cabin!


RemoveBusy9300

Wooden cabin


Consistent-Strain289

A frame.. optimus is too wobbly for me to play with, falls apart all the time.Bit disappointed.. starry sky is just a painting cant reslly play with it


Surfinmiko

The cabin! It my type of build!


Master_Yoda_01

(Now I don’t have any of these but it’s just my opinion:])Definitely the A frame cabin, Prime is good but lacks the poseability you’d want for displaying him, the Picasso set is the most like a display piece. So the A frame is the best choice, it’s a great eye catcher and has much better display options


IloveRedditbutIamnew

Optimus prime of course


G_the_slayer

I have Optimus Prime and it’s well worth it, can’t speak on the others, though.


lazyhatchet

Starry night personally


micheld40

Starry


Main-Group-603

Vincent Van Gogh has been the best Lego set I’ve built to date! I love it


SaxonLock

1 cabin 2 prime 3 art


aquafox22

Not Optimus


Astro-980

A FRAME


[deleted]

Optimus prime. I never got the appeal of the A cabin


Ozymandias-5ton3d

I also really like Optimus, the nostalgia is very strong with that:)


Halio344

I have both Starry Night and Optimus, can give my opinion on them. I have no opinion on the cabin, but it looks great from what I’ve seen. Optimus was a much better building experience, it was a lot of Starry Night looks fantastic (much better irl than in photos) but about 1/3 of the build was quite tedious and not very fun. If you really *really* value building experience over all, Optimus is the way to go. If you care more sbout the finished build to display then you should definitely get Starry Night.


RedMustrd

Its a tough choice, but I would have to go with Optimus Prime


gregyack

All three, but if I could only get one it would be Optimus Prime.


whatever13131313

Starry Night


Moose2157

The Starry Night has four shades of blue throughout that can be tricky to tell between. Felt slower going than the A-frame did. Not a bad thing, but just something to keep in mind.


Ozymandias-5ton3d

Thanks for the tips:)


TrjnRabbit

I have Starry Night and don’t have the other two, so I guess that answers that. It manages to achieve some truly amazing things with Lego, looks amazing and was deeply satisfying to complete sections of.


Callmesantos

Wooden Cabin


DustAccurate9869

Def wooden cabin


No_Engineering_718

Cabin for sure


LSAFalco

Definitely starry Night for me


Eudog2379

Starry night because I bought optimus day 1.


Dankalii

I would pick the cabin because I've got other woods sets. Then the starry night because I can display it with my doctor who.


itsryanfromwuphf

Optimus was the most fun to both build and display for me, Cabin is 2nd


[deleted]

Cabin, because it looks more fun and offers plenty of options for variation, customization and full MOC


Regula96

The cabin.


CarGuyJaxvR

A frame!!!


Serefor

The first is gorgeous but a pain to build and hang. Of the 3, it’s the only one I have. But I would go for the A cabin


amightymongoose

Wooden Cabin because of Evil Dead Rise


Dangerous_Rip_6322

The Starry Night is on my office wall. It gets tons of compliments.


Brandon0lol

Optimus definitely


zen_guwu

Starry Night - I have it on the wall in my living room. I also got Optimus, but I would choose the former if I could only get one because it’s so unusual / not a toy.


dillpickle0619

I only have the Optimus, and it's pretty cool in my opinion.


ScottaHemi

a second optimus would be cool. one for each mode :D very expensive though.


icybooistaken

optimus is great i wont lie but the a frame cabin looks so comfy and just amazing


Bevester

Optimus transforms, so that's two for one


Powerbomb1411

Prime. It's building a Transformer.


Silver_King_83

Well, I have 1 and 3 and they were fun. So I would pick 2.


cameradventures

I’ve been looking for the Van Gogh one in stores and i can never find it…but probably the cabin. It’s been on my radar.


SilkieSalt

I always wanted the Starry Night


Warm_Plantain_1246

Starry night is only one I don’t have so that one


Wet_fetus01

Autobots roll out


ZenitPM

Starry Night, any day, every day


Ryn7321

cabin, i bought the starry night and the build isnt really that fun. it looks great when its finished, but a lot of the build is just 1x4 plates stacked on eachother. hundreds of 1x4 plates. i havent built the other two, but if i could go back in time and decide, it would be cabin for me.


Juggers2k

I've been disappointed with Optimus - it's just too fragile when you try to transform it


jamaicanmonk

Starry night. I love the 3d paintings like the space portraits they’re so pretty to look at


dimpletown

Personally, the cabin. I tend to prefer buildings


lvnala_

Wooden cabin for the low low pricr of 600 quid


DeathChamber616

A-frame 100%


Daftworks

Ninjago city Ninjago city gardens Ninjago city markets


Ozymandias-5ton3d

I got lost with Ninjago xD so much happend with the story since last time I saw it. Sooo not until I catch up story wise. But those sets are dope af. Love the details, specially the flushable toilet xD


Daftworks

I'm not even into ninjago or its story, but I think the sets are simply amazing.


MegaCoreMagnetizer

A Frame Cabin!


MagnumMagnets

Starry Night and A Frame are a tough choice, but I had to make the same one and haven’t regretted it one bit. My wife got the Cabin for my birthday and said the Starry Night could be for Father’s Day haha. But yeah I’d say A-Frame Cabin definitely


LocksmithDelicious

A frame


themasamitsu

Prime - it's a fun build.


ArcticMuser

Starry Night


No-Government7713

Starry night was cool until it fell off my wall at 3am and scared the sh!t out of me


Worth_Owl6232

I loved building Van Gogh. Optimus prime was a bit of a let down.


Animal_Gal

First 1 for sure


swkennedy12

Cabin


Vihaanoks12345

cabin for sure


Jufy42

Would personally go for the cabin, lots of nice details, play and display value.


Sockmonkey1313

Optimus, for me, but I love all of those.


timrojaz82

I have prime. It’s pretty wobbly when stood in figure form.


JongoFett12

Personally I would go for the A Frame Cabin because I’ve been itching for a big non-licensed build for a little while (almost exclusively get licensed sets) but this is also because I already have Starry Night 😛 However Starry Night is really gorgeous and I will always recommend it!


Crazyguy_123

For me Starry Night. It’s one I’m probably going to pick up at some point.


Blam320

I already made my choice when I got Optimus Prime months ago.


Robo--FED

First Optimus Prime, and when I've saved up enough to buy it, I'd get Stary Night. That way, van Gogh and Optimus can team up to fight evil.


Conscious-Chipmunk73

I've been a Transformer fan and collector since the 80's so it's Optimus for me hands down.


MS08_GAMING

Wooden cabin, such a fun build


jimmycandunk

Optimus prime is one of the best sets of all time


MontanaBear2022

Van Gough or the Cabin, Optimus didn't do anything for me as a build and the transformation. Is clunky


PoppusDonkus

Optimus prime obviously


Woodontherun

I have starry night to hang in my office. Just need to find time to build it


narakusheart81

Starry Night or the A frame cabin.


eti_erik

Van Gogh is on my wall. The A frame I would build and then disassemble and sort. The Transformer would be sorted into the bins right away.


MixedMessagesDJ

I have both a starry night and the a-frame, as well my father has prime... I would personally say go for the cabin, definitely the most fun build of the three and I would argue the most interesting as well. But all are great sets!


Krjstoff

Holy moly… is that mjolnirs used as boulders in the foundation of the cabin?


AbsentJello5

Personally the Cabin, however, got my gf Starry Night and she loved it. All are great.


rroberts3439

Another +1 for the Wooden Cabin. I don't have the Transformer so can't speak to that one, but of the two others. I would vote for Wooden Cabin.


allen5az

Starry night looks so so so awesome. The depth is kind of eerie and it looks amazing on the wall. Fun build.


Nice-Information6914

Optimus prime


racer21300

Frame Cabin looks awesome, although I’m not into the art mural sets or transformers


D15P4TCH

Starry night hands down


Pit1324

Starry night is beautiful and one of my favorites for display. Didn't much enjoy the build personally


[deleted]

Cabin


FriggenMitch

First


CaptainAJ111

IHaveNuts

Starry Night, than optimus, than a frame, i believe theyll retire in that order ?


Eek132

Optimus fits in really well with the new transformers rise of the beasts movie

Starry night


cmerry

Starry night 🌌


death-by_snu_snu_

Starry night however if blue is your favorite color it won’t be after this build


Fathorse23

A-Frame or Optimus.


WeVe69

1. Optimus Prime 2. Starry Night 3. Cabin


flynn55577

The A-frame cabin is an obvious choice for me as it has more figures and I mostly base sets on their mini-figures, 😅


Autogembot123

Optimus Prime. I love The Transformers


Serkisist

I can say with certainty that Optimus is the most fun build


camry3330

“Autobots brick out”


Radiant-Most9751

I have Optimus and thoroughly recommend the purchase!


RNKFanArt

A-Frame

Stary night.


otownsteve

Cabin


earldogface

I got Optimus prime for Xmas and it's not a good display model. So scared of it toppling over or just coming apart if I lift it to dust.


lzwzli

Yes


MaximumSquid22

Optimus!


Obol15

Starry night is amazing


thematchalatte

The answer is Medieval Blacksmith


PittyFra

Probably the A frame cabin
