Ep. 148 - An Underrated Bricklink Masterpiece - The Riverside Scholars Review

In this episode, I’m taking a closer look at one of the most quietly interesting releases from the BrickLink Designer Program — Riverside Scholars from Series 4. This is a set that didn’t make a lot of noise at launch, didn’t sell out during preorders, and yet, in my opinion, has aged in a way very few BrickLink sets manage to do.

We’ll talk about why Riverside Scholars struggled during preorders, what makes it stand out now, and how its value, presentation, and overall experience compare to other Series 4 releases. It’s a great example of how first impressions don’t always tell the full story — especially in the BrickLink ecosystem.

If you’ve skipped over this set, wondered whether it was worth the price, or questioned how BrickLink Designer sets age once the dust settles, this episode is for you.
