The fun of a 16+ set is that you can go as far as you'd like without referencing anything R or X rated. Thus why Simpsons, F*R*I*E*N*D*S, Modulars and even Star Wars if you want to count them in exist/existed within Lego at some point. These are not sets geard at kids and as for the first two, not even kid friendly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freak out if I were to recommend the Playboy Mansion, which I won't. Its not like casinos have to portray violence anyway. It could be the place where people in the Lego universe hit the numbers.

TheBuilder Posted November 18, 2019 Just gambling alone is immoral, because it ruins people's existence, LEGO won't support such a lifestyle, that's all. I'm hoping for a police station! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They want people to design a vintage car to go alongside the modular buildings and the winning design will be turned in to a future gift with purchase set. https://ideas.lego.com/challenges/bafd4186-bb49-4eb0-903f-910415f04391?query=&sort=top Browsing through the 900+ entries submitted there so far, I must say that I'm quite fond of the shaping on this one in particular...

Well....I can say that about a lot of topics Lego does. But if they do a casino, which could happen, I'd invest. 6 minutes ago, TheBuilder said: I'm hoping for a police station! Oh I see. You're one of those guys. No! Lego has enough of those. City is getting another one next year. Buy that one. Let Modulars stay free of that.

KotZ Posted November 18, 2019 LEGO did a pool hall (we all know those are trouble). And in that set they have Prohibition style references, but this time with contraband cookies. A Casiono would make sense in this wave. Well, maybe not slots, but card table would be great for a modular building if they went that route. Wild West had characters playing cards, as well.

Let's not forget that Modulars is the adult version of City. So any type of building is possible. Even a floor with a torture chamber. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's as card games, I think they could get away with it (although I don't think it's the next modular building). I can see them betting cookies as the currency, but that's as far as it will go.
