Herky Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 I find it interesting that the opposite page had sets listed for Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, which is apparently the next movie and while I don't collect the JW sets, I was excited to know another movie was coming. I just wish the picture showed 3 skyline sets instead of 2. Quote
Kinakina89 Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 I thought that every year there will be 3 skyline sets. I guess there will only be 2 sets this year. Quote
julesvincent Posted November 6, 2017 Posted November 6, 2017 Maybe the release a third one later in 2018, one that wasn‘t done by the deadline. Quote
XAxles Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 And what was that all about? Are the buildings about the same level as HP Monroth's builds, or close to? Quote
Lego_Talk Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 A member on Reddit has found the box art for the 20139 Shanghai Skyline set. Seems quite official since it's not blurred or watermarked. The pale blue looks really beautiful and I am curious to see the spiralling black tower in more detail! Here's the link - https://i.redd.it/hm3hqrhrb9zz.jpg Quote
just_one Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 anyone knows if during black friday the following architeture sets are being discont? (Europe region) : Eifel Tower , sydney , london , berlin Quote
Brick Lover Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Don't forgot, there will be at least one new Architecture set in 2018 - the celebrater set for the line's 10th anniversary. Lars said it in a dialogue between the Brickset team and him a few months ago. When can we except the new skyline sets? It's time for it - last year we had them on the 17th of November. Yes, I know that Shanghai official box art is leaked. If you are looking for some (unfortunately prelimimary) box arts, familienshopping24.de posted some such pictures for Las Vegas and Shanghai.

Brick Lover Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Just saw the details of the two upcoming Architecture sets: 21038 Las Vegas, 487 pieces, 39.99 EUR 21039 Shanghai, 597 pieces, 59.99 EUR Quote
spig1992 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/1hNM1flzBTPZ9PTBa6457Q Shanghai Store official reveal "21039 Shanghai" Quote
Digger of Bricks Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 What sort of shade of purple is that on the fourth tower from the left? Is it Bright Reddish Violet, or something else? Quote
mostlytechnic Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 Is the twisting tower possibly as simple as 2x2 jumpers stacked and rotated slightly each time? It looks like about the right scale for that. Quote
Brick Lover Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 It's good to release skylines before global releases in their theme city's new (London) or normal (Shanghai) LBS. Quote
higgins91 Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 could the right tower be made with this part: Quote

It looks like about the right scale for that. No, it's way too large to be 2x2 jumpers. I agree with higgins91 - it's got to be that or some other technic piece. Got to say - Shanghai is the first skyline set that made me say "wow!" I doubt I'll get the set for myself, but I have a friend in mind whom I think would love to have it. Quote
Brick Lover Posted November 22, 2017 Posted November 22, 2017 I absolutely love Shanghai - maybe the best skyline ever! But I hate Las Vegas but not because of its design - it is perfect, as usual - but because of the baddy of the city. Quote

It ain't all a bad rodeo (I had a need to say that) it has Penn and Teller Quote

But I'm open for all skylines - so I want to see official images of 21038 Las Vegas and more official images of 21039 Shanghai. More to come! Edited November 22, 2017 by Brick Lover Grammar Quote

Funny they picked the radisson blu hotel of all places Oh, I translated it from Hungarian with Google Translator and then I didn't edit the text. Anyway, the 'motherboard' is the skyline's 36x6 plate. Quote

I hope it is a decent size set and a brand new set vs a bigger one of a previous set. Quote
Brick Lover Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 That's why I don't predict a third skyline for 2018: 2016: 212 + 289 + 598 = 1099 2017: 361 + 444 + 468 = 1273 2018: 487 + 597 = 1084 The piece counts are equals, at least roughly speaking. Quote
