Rip cups i will miss them they had many functions like storing bricks, drinking cup and much more
-
I mean, props to LEGO for not making the new containers smaller (by volume).
-
I personally think that the plastic cups are better than the cardboard boxes, even environmentally. Clear plastic make good storage containers.
-
I think they should offer both. Those who want to just recycle the box and don’t plan on storing them and those that reuse and store Lego in cups. I prefer the cups, very useful for sorting, storing, etc.
-
Thank you for this test. Using the small gems was a really great way to test the volume and i am surprised to see how the volumes between the 2 are so close.
-
Drug baggie of gems cracked me up man!😂

14:36 One feature I will miss from the cups was that the cups were waterproof/water resistant whereas the boxes are dead 💀when they hit water. Minifigs? Where is the minifigs test
-
I Know the box is ECO Friendly and you can stack symmetrically maybe a few more bricks, even though you can do the same thing in a cup, if the plastic cup is fully recyclable i personally prefer the cup, they last way longer than the box and you can stack the cups inside of each other for better storage, in other words the cup wins!

my stupid brain keeps thinking these are mcdonalds mcnugget boxes

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Cardboard boxes definitely easier to recycle. However, the cups should be reused and reused and reused etc, as this would then mean fewer trees cut down. Plastic boxes or cups are super durable but guess a lot of people just use them once and chuck them out? Not sure how many times a cardboard box would get reused? I do prefer paper bags or boxes for minifigs and in lego sets as generally these are single use? Will be interesting to see what other people think. 🤔

RIP CUPS!
-
Both have pros and cons but still prefer normal pick a brick cups and b a m blister packs for more storage and display
-
The best are the old ones from the 90's . Lego Had small transparent boxes with a Base Plate as lid .
-
When I go to Lego stores (Antwerp, Brussel, Disneyland Paris, Lille) I don't even have to close the cup, it needs to be shut enough so nothing falls out and it needs to be tapeable :p
-
Should also give us the option to buy a plastic cup and charge slightly less for every reuse
-
One plus I like is I can keep a couple collapsed boxes in my pack back to reuse for unplanned LEGO Store visits. I don't use the cups for storage.
-
So tuco Salamanca how’s the new blue product?? Tuco: 9:45 “wow that is tight tight tight” 😂😂
-
The boxes are worse in most ways, as displayed with the bulging. Move it a bit when traveling and it will rip, unlike plastic containers. Also plastic containers are reusable, cardboard boxes arent, especially if you have a tape seal and it rips the cardboard when opening it.
-
I was a big fan of stacking 4x6 plates in the middle of the cup. These boxes seem pretty sweet.
-
But the boxes will warp if you try to pack too much lego into them, this will never work. And will only waste more boxes as people break them. The clean up after a box breaks in the store will be epic, and will happen every hour.
