Just saw this on BS. I’ve heard the set mentioned by name on Eurobricks but
to see it... just WOW.

Is the interior detailed, as well?
This is a lovely model, I’m curious as to how much ‘play value’ it has - or if
it’s more just for looks.
I mentioned to a coworker that lately Lego seems to be producing more sets that
appeal to adults more than kids. (Not that I’m complaining... *grin*)

Looks like not. I had heard early on that this wouldn’t have an interior, and it
looks like that’s confirmed if you check out the images of the box. But it DOES
appear that it might have floors that are ready to be furnished as you see fit.
Not sure.

I think one of the other appeals will be to the albeit small female market. The
few women I’ve known who have talked about liking Lego as children often
reflected on how they liked the less “action-packed” sets (like police stations
and fire houses), preferring houses, stores, etc.
How awesome would it be to see sets in this genre coming out more frequently? A
school, library, playground, town hall, corner grocery store, etc? I can’t
wait.

I saw this set up close a couple of weeks ago. It is truly a sight to see, but I
can confirm that the interiors are NOT furnished. The next Brick Jornal (out
next week, I think) will have more on this, I presume.

K3w1! My lawless figs ae getting pretty bored knocking over just train
stations, fire houses and Breezeway Cafes:-)
Actually, there’s no crime on my LEGOtown streets. Not much poverty either.
I think Jonathan has enough for the both of us without Faile. (or should I say
“with”;-)

LOL!
I’ve been stumbling through an attempt to build one of these to deal with the
alleged issues of my town:

I have the cab to a point where I like it, but now the back is making me a
little wonky. Maybe I’ll post pictures of where I am with it tomorrow and ask
for a helping hand.
