That is the most impressive looking official set I dare say I have ever seen!

And this will be part of a modular series? That is so awesome.

I too am buying 99% of my LEGO from Bricklink or Pick-a-Brick these days, but this just may pull me back into buying official sets again. I really look forward to building this one.

Bravo, LEGO set designers and higher-ups at LEGO who approved this set!

I’m pretty much in the same boat as Brendan. I haven’t purchased a set since probably January 2004, but the sets that are coming out this year are really impressive.

Personally I don’t like this set for what it is as I’ve never really had a thing for euro architecture, but I do think it has potential. I see this set as an opportunity to learn something during the build but more importantly the parts selection is what really sells me on this. I can easily see myself using parts from this one set in 2 or 3 American style buildings and the building techniques in several more.

This set could also be an excellent choice for an alternate model competition at a community event like Brickworld. Builders would make a MOC using the parts from this one set with the winner getting a copy of the set as a prize. It could lead to some really cool models, which TLC could post instructions for. Anyway it’s an idea.
