I'm sure your family isn't like mine, op.

Fuc it if you want to buy it for him just buy it. srs

Don't overthink it.
I already bought it. I didn’t think about it too much because I thought it was awesome and I actually want to build it as well. But after talking to some of my brothers recently who aren’t doing great I kinda realized this may make them look/feel bad if they find out.

If it doesn't specifically say Lego it's a knock off.

Your heart was in the right place so don’t worry about it. You didn’t do to brag or anything, just wanted to give your nephew a crazy cool gift.

Also a knockoff and not Lego Brand. He’s been building Legos for awhile now so getting him a knockoff brand just wouldn’t feel right.

Yeah I see it now...which is funny because they all pull up when you type in lego.

I'm sure he will love it LOL!

Ohhh I just glanced at it and read the height as the length like a dumbass and the way the rooms look reaffirmed that, my b. Yeah maybe at 54 inches it's more worth it lmao.

LMAO. Same chit. They obviously are a Chinese drop shipper due to the fact that they have to advertise "US warehouse."

Opie. That chit is badass. The fact that you're gonna build it with him is dope too.

Who cares brah. It's a legit awesome gift for the kid and he'll remember this chit forever. The real gift is the putting it together with each other.

I don't even have a niece or nephew. I have two young cousins though on my moms side. The boy is now 18 and loves silver/gold and coins. I buy him different silver for every occasion and although they think it's cool they kind of look at me like giving $50-100 of silver is too much. I reward his ability of "getting it" when it comes to currency. He always says to me, "One day I'll be the one buying you silver as a gift."

All about the memories, relationships and creating that sort of unique bond. You're a good uncle brah.

I agree. I spend half of my life out at sea. All I care about are the memories at this point. I feel like my life is going so quick. It seems like yesterday I was holding this kid in my arms and I only have a handful of memories with him.

Thanks for the kind words brother.
