paupadros Posted October 16, 2017 Another rather interesting thing that your tables show is: More or less same piece count on PR, DO, BB (yes, I know they incresead price 10$ for BB). Respectively, 7th, 10th and not even showing. Out of all these 40 sets here, funnily, I personally own just 2. DO and Kwik-E-Mart. And about if there's enough demand on the market to keep up... I'm pretty sure there is. If there wasn't, we wouldn't all be here, right now. Everybody has his own thing. Some collect Star Wars, others Winter Village seta, other 14-wide cars. There's something for everyone, I mean, it's unlikely someone would buy a Technic set and then go on and buy the Simpsons House. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sammael Posted October 16, 2017 Huh, TLG may be releasing more and more expensive sets, but there are actually fewer ones I'm interested in. 2014: Sea Cow (on wanted list), Cargo Train, Simpsons House, Parisian Restaurant 2015: Helicarrier, Ferris Wheel, Temple of Airjitzu, Kwik-E-Mart, City Square, Detective's Office 2016: Disney Castle (on wanted list), Firehouse HQ, Classic Batcave (on wanted list) 2017: Ninjago City (ordered), Assembly Square, Carousel (ordered) Looks like 2015 was my sweet spot for expensive sets...

If there wasn't, we wouldn't all be here, right now. LEGO did report a decline in revenue in 2017. These larger sets do tend to stick around for about two years so people maybe holding off on purchasing them right away or focusing on smaller sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickFit26 Posted October 18, 2017 That's exactly what I do. I hold off on the bigger sets and focus on the smaller ones & CMFs. Then, I save up for the bigger sets I want which can take months to save up for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wesley D Posted October 18, 2017 I really hope the next modular won't be delayed because of all the great sets that are released recently. I got the Old FIshing Store, but there it stops for me. I've been tempted, but I finally decided NINJAGO City feels too unfinished to me. I won't be capable to modify it enough to my liking. Others are interesting, but not interesting enough to justify buying. Too much choice is stressfull. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wesley D Posted October 18, 2017 5 hours ago, Blazej_Holen said: unfinished? In which way? I think NINJAGO City is overwhelming detailed and couldn't be better finished for what it is ment to be, but it is a stacking of very different parts of buildings. Those parts aren't finished buildings. The result isn't a finished building neither. NINJAGO City doesn't try to look like a building like the modulars do. It would take a lot away of its 'cool' factor, but I would have bought it if it wasn't stacking but built horizontally as a city with each part as a full building. I like it so much, but I can't afford buying all fun LEGO like there is around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I understand what you´re trying to say, but to be honest almost every modular so far is kinda unfinished...no bathrooms, no proper kitchen or other stufff. Every building has kinda flaw. Most compact is GBHQ but I dont like that boxy shape... Ninjago city has several buildings conected to each other, and for what it is it is executed better than any bulding before (except PR, AS).... But its matter of choice. I already have it and in my modular city layout it looks faboulous... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NINJAGO City feels more like a cyberpunk fantasy setting to play with and let your imagination go wild. Do you have pictures of it and your city? I'm very curious to see them!
