Why is it so small? I think it's a missed opportunity, it would have been great if it was much bigger, I mean it could have been used as a real foosball table, that would have been really cool.
Here is an article about it: https://brick.is/blog/post/111/lego-reveals-they-came-close-to-cancelling-21337-table-football-set-due-to-problematic-model-scale Basically, they tried several scales and while playing with the game, but the set just got ruined (broken).
Oh I see, interesting, it makes me wonder if using technic parts would have given the board some more robustness, I don't know if they tested that too, because with normal parts it makes sense that it would break when making sudden movements. But actually this surprises me even more, I mean wasn't playability supposed to be an important factor in the LEGO Ideas review? It's a bit contradictory that if this set didn't comply with that, they still released it ๐คท ** Edit. ** I've just seen what the original idea was, quite a change. I get the feeling that a lot of the pieces could be crossed by the typical technic axles, I'm not sure if the designer took that into account, if even with the use of axles it was ruined then it was a big problem.
