Huskers1236 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Seems like about everybody likes this next upcoming modular as much as me. I'm really looking forward to the next one, and would like to see an old police station to go with the Fire Brigade. I like the custom Hospitals that are out there as well, but not sure if Lego can do it in true Modular form without making it too tall and a stand alone like Town Hall. The possibilities are endless, I could see something with a Barber Shop, Health Clinic, Post, Police(my guess for next modular), or many more. What are your guesses? Quote
nolanfan34 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Retiring Fire Brigade and coming out with a downtown Police department would be awesome. This set is amazing, we have watched the video like 10 times, can't wait to get it. Quote

What are your guesses?It honestly feels strange Lego has not done a Police Precinct modular, either to go beside their previous Fire Brigade or because every year yields yet even more cop City sets. However going with tradition, I would rather enjoy seeing a classic Barber Shop. Maybe something like a old records store or jazz bar. Quote

Just not sure they would go down that route. Record store could be cool too. Police precinct makes too much sense, though, and there's about 1,000,000 of them to model from. Quote
legopocalypse Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I still wish they did a hospital, barbershop, police station, school, etc. before this restaurant. My minifigures already enjoy eating at the cafe corner! Now they still have nowhere to go to report a crime, get a haircut, learn various subjects, or go to when they're sick :-) Quote

I wouldn't be surprised to see a Post Office. Seems like it would go well in a modular building street scene. Could also see a record store. Quote
Diabolos80 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I was thinking I wished this was a corner set. Then I realized, it is! The wrap-around terrace deserves to be seen, not stuffed between a town hall and a pet shop. This is the set that will convince me to buy its contemporaries. So far I have the Brigade and the Palace, but neither is currently built because of display space. Come January I think a few of my built sets will be making room for a line of modulars :) Quote
brickolodon Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 modulars just getting better and better...love it... Quote
kishidan69 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Very beautiful. Love the different scenarios on each floor. Quote
Noodlenut Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I first saw this set on The Brothers Brick and thought that it was a MOC at first. I will definitely plan to get this one! Quote

I would love to see a Post Office. It seems like it would go well with the other modulars. Quote
Seifer Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Stunning design. Yes, the modulars are getting better and better. This will be a must have. Quote

Could also see a record store.Hmm, maybe we'll see a two store side section similar to Pet Shop. One building will be the Post Office and the other a Record Store or Barber perhaps. I still would like to see more confectionary stores like a Candy Store or Ice Cream Shoppe. Heck, how about a Bar & Grill? Ha. :D Quote
StompingFreak Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Thanks for posting these images. I was looking forward to this set. Now I can't wait. Weird Jan release date. I know these set are over brought by investors, It won't be another cafe cornner, But as a collector/fan this will make a really nice addiction to my collection. Just a idea, a car sales room would be nice, or even a church, or appartment building. Thanks again. Stomping Oh, love the vespa! Plus why has that boy got the one ture ring???? lol Quote

Plus why has that boy got the one ture ring???? lolThe January release is only a suggested date. Majority of this year's sets had that "January 1" date when we started hearing about them last year and only so many of them actually were available by then. I too found it funny with the guy holding "The One Ring" but it is just a generic ring part so I'm sure they'll use it elsewhere like maybe in a jewelry store modular. I like your automotive dealer idea although I have no idea how they could fit a car into the build itself unless it was a Mini or maybe that light blue Reliant Regal from just about every episode from Mr. Bean. :lol: 1 Quote
Diabolos80 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Does the speculative jan release mean we might not see this set until feb or march? :( Quote

Car show room. Two three cars out front, With star buy, in middle of show room. Then round the back a mech station. You could have advertising banners and every thing. Stomping Quote
Ivanlau1999 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 I'm guessing that can we buy this set 15th days earlier by using the VIP card from the Lego store Quote

Stomping Great idea - I would be a buyer of this as well. They could use the dealership I bought my Ford at as a template - it was the same building where Al Capone used to buy his cars back in the 30s - Motor Row in Chicago. Also, it would be cool if they could work in an homage to a vintage set I had as a kid: 6373 Motorcycle Shop 1 Quote
spener90 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Parisian-Restaurant-10243 It is on the website. Listing says January 1st, 2014. I believe it. 1 Quote
TheOrcKing Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Does the speculative jan release mean we might not see this set until feb or march? Anything goes when it comes to release dates. One thing going for a near start of the year release is how the designer video has already been sent out. The one for Palace Cinema was but a couple of months seen before the VIP release so we may very well see it available at Shop-at-Home early January (for VIP members). It is on the website. Listing says January 1st, 2014. I believe it.'Kay, let's go with that then. ;) Quote

You too had that set as a kid?! I loved that one! I have seen a few good modular motorcycle stores on flickr and CUUSOO. Quote
Quacs Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 No f'ing way! You too had that set as a kid?! I loved that one! I have seen a few good modular motorcycle stores on flickr and CUUSOO. So simple, yet so awesome. I still have the remnants of it in a bin in my basement. Just saw the sign yesterday as I was looking for a piece... Quote

All that's missing is the open lot. Top Job. Stomping Quote
