Reckless Ben

If you’ve been on the internet in the last month or so, you’ve certainly seen this story surrounding Youtuber Reckless Ben. He is on a mission to restore rightful ownership of a Star Wars Lego collection worth over 100k. The collection is allegedly being illegally held by a company called Bricks and Mini Figs.

For those who haven’t seen it, here is a link to Ben’s first video:
I tracked down the thief who stole $200,000 of LEGO

My initial reaction to the first video was amazement. Ben’s commitment to this mission, and creativity to force Bricks and Mini Figs to respond was incredible.

His videos in this series are getting millions of views. You would think that this much PR for Bricks and Mini Figs, would make them want to do the right thing and return the collection to Bryan Mansell. But they are currently suing Ben and this story continues to develop in real time.

Other Youtubers are starting to weigh in on this drama and evaluate the data for themselves. Coffeezilla has entered the chat. He takes a crazily thorough look at all the details in this case in his video, I Found The $200,000 Missing Lego

I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for an update, but with a gag order seemingly in place against Ben, it may be some time before we hear anything.

I’m team Ben. Let us know your thought in the comments @routtagency
