Our fans were not aware at the time we released this that it would become a tradition to make these once a year therefore a remake was necessary.

Follow the clues in the release images. It´s all there.

What clues? You guys read too much into these things ... If they really wanted to make a bang, they should have re-released Cafe Corner for the 10 year anniversary too. One set has the printed tile, a re-release with an updated interior for $169.99 and bam... 2 sales at once.

Say what? I missed the original Saturn V? I did... hmmm. But there is no mini model in this set... 

(all of the mini sets are Creator sets BTW)

Technically they have re released café corner but in fun size version.

Well there you go... maybe we'll get another set of Mini Modulars next year too.

Is your modular city getting out of hand? We have the solution with our mini mini modular series of 1x1 buildings. 1 cat not included.

It is, but that's because there is currently a UCS Tie and X-Wing sitting in the middle of a construction site. City building is on hold for Halloween building.

 

Sounds like the way Lucasfilms develop their SW film plots.

Sorry didn't realize it was the Eiffel tower.

Ahh, that makes sense. Though I really meant that I didn't realize there was already a SV set also. LEGO has made some great decisions and some weird ones the last while...

If this is the 10th anniversary modular, I wonder if they'll resurrect all the EOL ones for the 15th ;-)

I am conflicted on this one. Will deff pick one up, but it seems like this is not really a new type of modular. We already have the straight building and corner building. This one looks like a variation of a straight building with a fountain in front of it. The scale of the square aspect is very small. Why would they not make the square the size of a street baseplate? Just seems like there should be a way to offer an inner corner building, or a square design that would allow for multiple set purchases - with extra interchangeable signage and accessories to build different shops.

Looks good. Lego is putting out SO MANY big sets now. Where are they going to find the shelf space?

Forget LEGO's shelf space,... what about my shelf space ???  And my poor pocketbook...

Love it. Period. Still saving up for BB though, so this will need to be a mid to late 2017 purchase.

Agree,... Just got BB in the end of September.  Saving for this one already... Hope business on Bricklink will go good...

I agree with that and Parisian Restaurant was a fantastic build and easily my most enjoyable modular build. I LOVED the restaurant and kitchen part. Green Grocer is the only set with both impressive size and nice details.

All true,... But FB was more of what GG is like.  That set had both as well.  I think FB is underestimated as a modular...

The fact its 1.5 modular base plates as oppose to the one.

And how about the ten years of little hints inside all of this ?...

Is it the Emerald Night or the Mini? At this scale the details are a little bit vague.

How much of a chance do we have that LEGO will bring another set this year ?  After all, this is kind of a 'celebration' set, and not one of the 'regular' sets ?

now that would be a real surprise...
