    Feel as others TLG had a opportunity to do better on this set BH. Looking at AS compared to this one, you really go a lot more for a little more money. Think TLG had a good idea here, just needed a larger budget and footprint to make it make happen. That's what's great about Lego, one can remedy what is perceived as any shortcomings. For the record, I will be getting this set. No idea what modular I can place next to it? Same issue with DD, its sits alone in my city.

    These scaled well in my city. Removed the monster stuff, nice building. This one is a nice corner or folded into a complete build. If you perfer the complete building look fairly easy to moc. Have several of these 3-1 building sets in my city This is another good one for scaling with the modulars

    I have had multiple issues purchasing used sets via ebay, bricklink etc. Get incorrect pieces, broken pieces, etc. If the seller listed that set at so so at 99% complete then ok. When its listed as 100% complete and like new (with the price to go along with it) then that's when I get upset. They will usually offer a $1 or so for the parts in error, but by the time you add shipping and your time no way this $1 covers everything. That said, as a buyer I assume something will be wrong with my purchase. Hopefully it will be something small I can get from my own inventory. If its a major item then will reach back out to the seller for compensation. Suggest you offer the guy a few dollars to go away. Selling used Lego always looked like a huge pain in the butt.

    My current favorite channels are Robin Hood Bricks and Alex Nunes. Robin Hood Bricks has put together a well done city with quality moc's. I do skip out on this Wednesday videos as they are haul videos (no interest in the subject). Alex just seam like a genuine quality guy and the channel is not focused on making revenue. Feel more excited about the hobby after watching these guys video's, isn't that really what its all about? Agree with other about Jangbricks. Jang says his passion is for moc's but spends 99.9% of the time reviewing current sets and a lot of them he does not like. Seams like he has lost his passion for the hobby, maybe time to try something else? I am not following him on any other platform then Youtube. I used to follow Bricksie but seams like he is tearing his city apart every other week. Should put that energy into making moc's or something unique for his channel. Lot of the other Channels out there are on the negative side. Too much negativity in my day to day life. Looking for more positive channel to follow...this is supposed to be a fun hobby after all.

    Any news if we are getting a new city train set for 2022?

    Yes, I was referring to the Tree House set.

    TLG does do some odd pricing. Know licensed themes cost a bit more. Sometimes feel anything I am interested in TLG add 50% to to the cost.....lol

    No surprise with City, Star Wars, HP and Technic on the top 5 list. Glad to see Creator Expert made the list.....aren't they discontinuing the theme? At least a name change. Hope ideas was number 6. Lot of really good sets lately from the theme!

    I have mine currently on top of a bookcase. Planning on changing the foliage to match the seasons. Hope someday my Lego Store has white leaves in the bricks and pieces bins.

    I like how you worked the tree house into your display. I am still trying to work mine in somewhere.

    For the Speed Champions totally agree. Luckily they usually include enough of the original print that you can add it to they sticker. Example is the racing number on the blue Camaro. Was able to include the bits between the two stickers to make it look complete.

    Looks good, I am planning on lighting up my Modulars, can't see inside them without the lights. Agree the DD is a must for lighting

    I have this set, would go well with yours. Got used in a bulk bricks order. Little out of scale with the rest of my sets, but worth having a place in my city.

    Hotel for this year......ok. Already have one in the CC, maybe this years will be very upscale. Can moc the CC into more of a budget hotel. Wonder if a vehicle will come with it? Maybe a taxi?

    Great review, like the luminated Christmas Tree this year.

    Ready for the seasonal set this year!

    Fairly easy to add a few white 1 by 1 plates/tiles to a ordinary Lego vehicle for a winter look. TLG did offer a snow plow which while a little large is very cool.

    I see your point getting another blue cottage for the theme. Agree other color(s) would have looked better IMO, but I'm ok with the blue. Its the lack of the contrasting trim the original had that I miss the most. Lost some of its charm in this version. Maybe it wont be to difficult to moc to add some?
  19. LegoDW
    Looks like a updated version of the old cottage for this year. Should be an official announcement soon!

    Had the same issue last year, every set I wanted was sold out. As COVID-19 numbers are rising in the US, I have started picking up the sets I want now....not waiting for the GWP promos. Hope these sets you are wanting will be available during the promo's this year.
  21. LegoDW
    Highly unlikely TLG would release the Cottage, not for $100 US. Could see a release of the Post Office for this price.
  22. LegoDW
    Agree Tavern for weary travelers would be a nice addition to the series. My guess for this years set will be something more outdoors, a ice skating pond with gear driven skaters. My second guess is sticking with the Phantasy theme... release of Santa's Workshop. Not looking forward to any releases, just getting that vibe.

    Just finished building the Elf and Gingerbread house sets. Hope this new set doesn't focus so much on the chimney like these two. They are nice, but a lot of brick are tied up in these Chimney's. Of the two, IMHO prefer the looks of the Gingerbread house. It is scheduled to retire, if you don't have recommend getting. The Gingerbread mini figs are ok, can replace them with traditional mini figs if you don't like, house looks great!

    I heard that also. Feel their is still value for TLG to keep this set on the shelves.....Christmas shopping will be coming up and what kid (and AFOL) doesn't want a large priate ship under the tree.
  25. LegoDW
    Saw TLG is to trial run this VIP offering in England first. Not sure why, would seam like high demand. Don't think this is happening. Barracuda Bay is still selling well. IMO the Pirate theme is to lucrative for TLG to pass on.....I'm all on board!
