    Honestly, I think criticising people who give their opinion on a new set on a forum specifically designed for that very purpose is somewhat strange, although I can sympathise with the idea that some people are perhaps overly harsh about certain very specific features. Then again, we are adults buying toys and it makes sense that all of us are looking for something else from these toys. This opinion nicely puts my feelings into words: great set, day 1 buy, but a bit less brilliant than Ninjago City (which happens to be my all time favourite Lego set).

    VERY happy to see the sets linked up as I am going to display them (city, docks, gardens), looks great! Now to wait for my package from Lego to arrive, still in warehouse at the moment.

    This! Unsure why this isn't the most obvious way to display the sets for people, the temple island in between docks and garden looks so bad.

    REALLY wanting to see all three sets connected together without the island in between, as well as shots from the back. Hoping more reviewers finish building it and show us the good stuff soon! At least Im very happy to get confirmation that those balconies on the left side of the gardens are removable so we can display the sets in any formation as we please.

    Got up at midnight to order my copy, it seems out of stock already (6.30 AM here) stating it will be arriving soon...

    I was hoping for a Ninjago-themed GWP for the anniversary, but I guess even that is not going to happen. Pretty disappointed with the way Lego is handling 10 years of Ninjago, though of course the gardens set itself is great.

    Confused about the way Lego is marketing the gardens, was hoping for some reviews today or tomorrow...

    I am a little afraid that one of those balconies will be in the way to make that connection though, but hoping Lego made sure that isn't a problem.

    Really excited seeing these details! Pretty annoyed with the ordering of the sections in their example though: the right side of the docks with the vertical drop and cut off walkway looks ridiculous. Looking forward to seeing the gardens connected to the docks without the pagoda section in between and hoping Lego made those balconies customisable so the sets can properly connect like that.

    Honestly, the pagoda section is a little disappointing for me. Yes, the titanium ninja is a great bit of fan service, but otherwise it is very bland and feels completely overwhelmed by the sheer mass of the build on the 32x32.

    I think this is probably true looking at the pics. Would make sense to me, especially if they are really making more of these, in which case making a designated " end module" would make zero sense imo.

    Pretty bizarre that it has not been revealed yet at one week before release, especially with them showing the set in the catalogue. Not sure there is any good reason for this honestly, it takes away a lot of the hype for me personally as I keep checking sources for new pictures but always end up disappointed. In addition, I really enjoy all of the discussion and hype after official reveal but that period will be very short if they don't reveal before the weekend.

    This is a Dutch site, I read the article (native speaker) and they are just basing this on the Dutch prices in Euros of the older sets, which include 21% tax in case of The Netherlands. For some reason the quote on the forum here replaced the Euro signs with Dollar signs.
