    They are smooth.

    Sorry about the delay. They have a smooth feel to them. He prob bought up all of Lego's Pick a Brick stock years ago.

    I'll let you know as soon as I get home. I wanna say smooth, but don't recall exactly.

    Anyone have next months? August is kinda blah to me. I did place a order yesterday for the Hot Dog Stand. Can't wait to get it!

    What ever happened to the other building you were working on?
  6. The Jersey Brick Guy
    Thanks for the idea. I googled some ideas and ran across some plans on the CUUSOO website. I am building the first floor bar area now, than will start into the other 2 floors. The guy who made this also has some killer ideas for the Market Street building, so I may use that also for that build. I have been left substituting different colors though as all the called for pieces do not exist in the colors he's said. So the base of my bar is going to be Dark Green instead of Dark Blue. Overall I think it will pop better with the tan floors and dark blue walls. I am at a impasse right now while I wait for at least a good chunk of the pieces come in. I don't want to build the entire thing and than have to take it apart. I tell you what though, I am starting to think about what modular buildings I want to build next. I'd go with the Fire Brigade, it's been out longer and is due to be retired sooner rather than later. Don't make the mistake of saying you will buy it later. The prices on retired modulars are 3-4 times what they were new. Also welcome to the Modular craze! I have to admit, your work is some of my favorite that I have seen. So many great ideas with your stuff, and how you have modularized some of the other buildings is really awesome. to you! With that being said, (and now that I am already $100.00 into my Cafe Corner Interior), I am going to be going a slightly different route. I am hopping it comes off nicely though. Could you post a better picture of your bar area though. So many great little builds there. Thank you!

    My Green Grocer is complete! I absolutely love it!!!! It's just amazing! Question for everyone, what have you done with the first floor of the cafe corner? I have been sizing up the interior and before I push forward, I was hoping for some ideas with what people have done with their coffee bars. Thoughts, ideas, suggestions? Anything!

    The hot dog stand I am sure is going to look nice on a street corner of someone's town.

    I love this new design. It's my new favorite! Whats down the street to the right of the town hall? I have been thinking of making blocks like what you have, but I was going to use 4x4 baseplates roads per block. I am not sure if that will come off to big or not. Keep posting the pictures!
  10. The Jersey Brick Guy
    The town hall is an awesome set for sure. It really does tower over everything else in the town. I can't wait to see what you do with the old town hall!
  11. The Jersey Brick Guy
    Nice. I'll be getting this one for sure!
  12. The Jersey Brick Guy
    That's one way of looking at it!
  13. The Jersey Brick Guy
    In the Town Hall they did have outlines for the pieces, I haven't gotten the cinema yet, so I can not speak for that one.
  14. The Jersey Brick Guy
    I have been thinking a lot about the sidewalks, and I was thinking of possibly just extending the side walks out even more. Think the 7 tiles that comes with them now + 7 more, 14 tiles away from the street, but this will allow for parking spots, flower plots, bus stops and the like.
  15. The Jersey Brick Guy
    I've had the issue of identifying the color of the pieces with the physical directions, looking at them on my mac and also on my PC. I have also had the issue of using the wrong color to find out that it was my fault and that a piece was not missing. All these new colors tend to run on each other.

    TAKE MY MONEY NOW!!!!
  17. The Jersey Brick Guy
    I was able to buy mine for $6.50 each brand new on Brick link. Get them while their hot!!
  18. The Jersey Brick Guy
    Can you get a better picture of the coffee bar?
  19. The Jersey Brick Guy
    Thank you for saying this! When I saw the pictures last night, I have to admit that after my sheer joy of another awesome Winter Village set, I said to myself, "another damn lightpost design." While they have all been neat, I have to echo the call for a consistent lamp post. I think it's safe to assume that a majority of the people who get these sets, display them next to each other.

    A heads up to everyone, with the news of the new 1 x 8 x 2 Dark Blue Arches, the prices seem to have dropped. I was able to just get mine for $6.50 each on Bricklink. The store I got them from has over 200 of them in stock. At those prices, who knows how long they are going to last. Happy hunting!
  21. The Jersey Brick Guy
    That would be awesome.
  22. The Jersey Brick Guy
    Another question, as I honestly can't tell the difference. On Step 18, the Light Bluish Gray Brick, Modified 1 x 1 with Headlight that's connected to another Brick, Modified 1 x 1 with Headlight. Is that one Reddish Brown?
  23. The Jersey Brick Guy
    I can't wait for this one. Hopefully it allows the user to be able to easily switch from a Parisian to an Italian or American or whatever.
  24. The Jersey Brick Guy
    Thank's for the response. I thought they were black, but wanted to be sure. My eyes were not having it at 12:00am, and for some reason the colors tend to apprear similar on both my Macbook Pro and iPad2. As far as the Town Hall goes, you gotta get it. It's a wonderful build, and like others have said, it really stands above all the other modulars in town. I was able to get mine for $170.00 on Amazon this past January/February. So it does go on sale, you just need to be patient about it.

    Hi all, I figured that instead of hijacking everyone's threads with similar questions about modulars, to just create one thread where people can ask questions and the like. This way we are not junking up specific topics with questions about multiple modulars.
