Wow, we're getting really close to the release and there aren't even pictures yet. LEGO is being incredibly tight-lipped about this.

I should probably mention June and July are early release dates.

OK that makes slightly more sense. So glad I'm visiting Legoland in July now; hoping I'll be able to pick up Big Ben then.

Usually there are pics though, CM4, any leaks from your sources? Would like to see it if possible. Same with Beetle

Nothing yet. Beetle is definitely for real though!

Haha wow that's pretty cool. Love the little tree!

Looks like he's got more pictures, too. The tweets have been deleted because it isn't Thursday

It could just be a clocktower in your modular city. Perhaps fix a ladder inside all the way up to the bell.

On a side note, LEGO is really cutting down on baseplate availability. I'm rather surprised that even this set uses normal plates as the base.

Can anyone make out how the spires are made?

Edit: I see it now, the ski pole. Nice part to get in gold.

According to Huw, the press release is due at 3 PM London (ironic, I know) time tomorrow. Cannot wait for a closer look!

Huw took down photos in the BS Forum so I dunno if they'd be expected to be taken down here with the reveal being so soon.

Yeah, the leaked photographs aren't meant to be shared. He told me not to post an article on them because of the official reveal tomorrow.

Wow, this looks waaaay better than expected. I might get this set after all ... also functional clock, how cool is that!? Very impressed, can't wait for the full reveal tomorrow.

Finally. And this looks even more awesome than the picture I saw leaked. That picture was of quite poor quality still ....

Actually so much that it makes me wonder if it was just an early WIP of this.

But glad to see this finally in good resolution. Looks awesome !

BTW, anyone knows what's the price is gonna be. Did I miss out on that ?

Yes ... but most of us are interested in the length ... I cannot make it out of the rather small image ...

I believe $349.99, which is not a bad deal at all for over 4k pieces.

Thanks.

No its not, from what the pictures suggest what pieces are included. They looks mostly useful, and quite a bit of rare pieces as well.

I think this is gonna be yet another LEGO bestseller. ( Tan baby's all over the place! )
