I'm surprised this one didn't sell out before the Train Shed... Just my personal opinion, but it doesn't look quite right to me. In my mind, old merch stores should have two stories with living quarters on top. Having it be one story just feels weird to me. I considered buying two and MOC-ing it, but it would be waaay back in the queue if I did so. I like the covered wagon, but not worth it just for that. Better to save my money for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they needed better pictures to sell it, lower angles and some of the interior. But I picked one up and looking forward to building it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudoty Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 To build I like the Elven Castle and both of the big ships that are quit similar, and for investment the Modular Hospital. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceFan9 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I must be in a modular mood these days... as the Opera House and the City Aquarium are currently at the top of my list. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the trains are cool but not sure what I would ever do with them.

I thought these two were also pretty solid. Italian Street Corner - hard to capitalize on a corner layout. I thought they nailed this! Downtown Apartment - Always needed in any city. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudoty Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 I’m surprised they are making the medieval market but will probably get that one July 2025 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Medieval Seaside Market could serve as a nice crossover between Pirates and Castle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to get Castle, Pirates, and Vikings in the same universe for an epic storyline. Then there’s the Aliens from the new Space sets that will need to make an appearance (given what we’ve gleamed from the Ancient Aliens tv show). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Jedi Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I guess I don't have any problem with all these castles being made (though I'm personally getting a bit burnt out), but I would like to see some other themes get produced on this scale. I prefer classic space to castle, and while TLG is producing some interesting space sets, there's nothing approaching the scale of these castles that has the classic space feel. I won't even talk about what a ludicrous miss that space CMF set is. But I do think a 3k - 4k piece classic space set would do quite well - it's just a shame the BL program is starting to boil down to castle, trains and modulars. At least, that's how it feels right now. Maybe a bit of recency bias here... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
