Jiesdeo Posted August 14, 2022 Posted August 14, 2022 With the inclusion of the cow in the Lion Knight's Castle as well as the fact that 10193: Medieval Market Village was included on the box, what do you think the chances are that there could be a remake of MMV in the future? Maybe the rebranding of Creator Expert to Lego Icons opens up for re-releases of old iconic sets? Quote
Rjbricks Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 Maybe but not any time soon. Perhaps they’ll do a Christmas themed Medieval winter village… Quote
Modeltrainman Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 I don't know. They seem loathe to redo the goat. Isn't that the part of it that people have wanted for years? Quote
Sir Dano Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) Medieval Market Village didn't have goats, that was Mill Village Raid. An MMV remake would be cool but I'd be just as happy with another set in the same style to expand mine. Edited August 15, 2022 by Sir Dano Quote
MAB Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 I hope we don't. I'd prefer we get a newly designed but similar idea set free from any any constraints trying to replicate something that already exists. Quote

Isn't that the part of it that people have wanted for years? @Modeltrainman The set you are thinking of came out in 2011 as 7189 - Mill Village Raid. The one being discussed is from 2009 and is set 10193 - Medieval Market Village. No goats are included in that one, but brown cows got started there! As someone who loved the original set for his "vintage town" set in the mid 1800's - early 1900's (along with the 2011 Diagon Alley it went along with so nicely), I'd say I'd love to see what they could do with it, but I wouldn't buy it. I also think the modern bag-sorting system would do wonders for this set! (Dumping all the parts in one box at one time still feels odd, all these years later. I mean, 10194 didn't do that, and that was released in 2009 too!) But I digress... Edited August 15, 2022 by Murdoch17 Quote

Lyichir Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 I don't think it's that likely. To be quite honest, set design has come a long way since Medieval Market Village–if they wanted to do a set of similar subject matter, it'd probably be both better and more popular if they designed one from scratch.

I agree. I’m all for civilian castle sets and MMV is amazing for what it is, but a new village set doesn’t need to directly reference it to be great. Quote
brimbolet Posted August 15, 2022 Posted August 15, 2022 I think the forest hideout remake for a single GWP in connection with the 90th anniversary was great, but I'd rather stick to something new as well. More remakes will just mean a 'coup de grace' for Castle and historic themes altogether. Quote
Poco Lypso Posted August 16, 2022 Posted August 16, 2022 a modular medieval village series would be great, blacksmith shop scale Quote
Lion King Posted August 17, 2022 Posted August 17, 2022 I never owned MMV but I think it old be cool to see a remake of that original version. But I’malso ok with something very new, yet similiar. Quote
