They should turn this line into an ideas submission and community vote. The police station up on ideas with the full fledged donut shop and several others are much better than this. The design team is starting to lack on the modulars me thinks. And no police car? 

I don't see them opening this up to community votes  . . . Lego understands the modular community's desire for a brothel too well and doesn't want to be reminded. 

As for the set, it's fine. Ho hum, but fine. There are certainly much more imaginative sets, like the Car Wash music store modular, but there's also a design aesthetic that I don't see the theme veering too far away from anytime soon.

Oh it most likely won’t happen but I’m starting to think the community is more creative and imaginative than the LEGO design team at this point.

suppose my thought was LEGO could say, we want our next modular to be a police station. Then there is a submission in ideas for say 6 months, let LEGO weed out the bulls**t and then let the community vote for the next 6 months or so. 
 

you’re right it will never happen. Just feel like there is so much more that could happen with these sets.

Hmmm, looks like the shape in the pics, but... not enough minifigs????

Last years had same amount of minifigs.

I was going to post that image yesterday but thought no way that could be it. What a s***ty modular. 

I like it and more in line with the classic looking modulars unlike that horrendous diner. It will fit nicely next to the bookshop. Jamie is known for his details so the inside may be very intricate. Let’s give it a chance at least?

As a modular collector and investor, I am conflicted. On one hand, I appreciate the unique design and ability to blend with basically the entire line. Both a huge pro.

On the other hand, I am uncertain about the need for a Police station.  Also, the tri-building design with a center larger building and two narrow builds, appears to be built on a single base plate. I am interested to see the instructions/more pics. Curious if all three connect with a technic pin or are built together. IMHO if one single build, that would be a big miss.

Take away the figs and police sign and you can’t even tell it’s a police station

Our police station in our suburb is a similar design. You can't tell it's a police station without the round police ball sign out front, and it also isn't easily wheelchair accessible, like this one.

I hear ya, just wish it had a more classic police station look to it.
