Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion

[Westbrick]

If anyone (in the UK)  had been waiting for Tudor Corner, I just snagged it from Argos for £160. I’ve been trying to be patient, and doubt I’ll find it cheaper than that. I also bought 76975 as well, from them and will attempt to work the Trex into the natural history museum!

I’m not in UK but I kinda regretted buying Tudor Corner in a full price in order to get Kiosk Corner GWP this past January.  This GWP is impossible to fit into Modular City if it has a thick small baseplate.  Plus, I should have waited for discount on Tudor Corner! Next time then….

Ive put a stop to buying them straight away, as I never have time to build them then anyway. Vague plan is to wait for them in a sale or at the very least, a points day. This is the first time I’ve managed it-I almost missed the 80113 restaurant though, and never saw it on sale. 

Have just noticed that John Lewis have the Jazz club and Boutique hotel for 25% off if anyone in the UK is interested.

Random quesiton: how is it likely for Lego to produce a courthouse?? We have Police Station but it feels weird without lawyers and judge somewhere.

I was wondering that too, with the discussion on sets Lego won't produce. I mean we got the couple marrying at the Town Hall, which could also be done in a courthouse. Maybe it would have to be a large civic building like the Town Hall or Museum and they considered some of the functions taken care of already with previous sets? I don't know, that's the best explanation I could come up with.

Agreed.  And I noticed the facade on Police Station - it has several columns, that reminds me of courthouse.  It has a “just” vibe. I think American Colonial architecture would suit a courthouse better, red bricks with white columns.  Layout inside the courthouse might be little tricky - judge’s office, a hearing room, a clerk’s desk, lawyer’s office (?). I feel it’s best for 1.5 baseplate building, i don’t know…

And It would be hilarious if a donut thief from Police Station makes another appearance in courthouse (standing before the judge) or even Brickster from Lego Island. It would be cute if it includes two men or women as a married couple recidivist a marriage license from there. 

I jsut can’t see why Lego should not produce a modular building like courthouse??

It depends how good the new Modular release will be this year.  I usally purchase 1st day if I want them.   If I delay, then I really don't want the set and oftin regreat purchasing when on sale.
