  1. Don't like the colour but at least it is roughly on topic. Hated the firestation. I want a UK/European feel, but it seems to be heading very strongly towards a US feel. So I have bought the Harry Potter Hogsmeade set which fits in beautifully - I always thought my village should have a pub. I have a moc church too.
  2. Ooh I do hope so...a couple of years ago somebody made a beautiful moc one for the winter village build competition. It was a thing of beauty.
  3. Not a thing in Europe though.
  4. Or Mountain Rescue... But I highly doubt a restaurant in a barn as that is a very specifically USA thing. Same goes for a 'gas' station.
  5. It is on the lego video channel. At 0.33
  6. The Instagram leak appears to be via our very own Dimaks, but as I am not sure how Instagram works I may be wrong...
  7. Jay66 replied to stebai's post in a topic in LEGO Town
    Fantastic MOC - please get it on Ideas!
  8. Jay66 changed their profile photo
  9. I second this, and this would put paid to the ridiculous prices being charged for old sets. £360 on Amazon for the cottage? I would like to see all the sets re-released on a running programme. PLUS a new release.
  10. Just found this - love it - and I am sharing it with my electrician (husband) because the lighting is exactly what I want!
  11. There is an entry on Amazon UK for the new set, marked Confidential. It is 1.3kg and gives product dimensions. This suggests the big reveal will be very soon... Edit: as Dimaks13 points out so helpfully, this entry has been there some time already. The Hungarian toy shop lists release as being due 1.12.18, so I am going to give up now! If it is released late, it won't be ready in time - hey ho.
  12. The main problem with some of these ideas is the time period for me: the buildings are 'old' and European in styling. I would like to keep with that theme (although I have added an English church to mine). The vehicles are old-style (cart) but the bus and snowplough are 1920s to 30s. The carollers wear Victorian style clothes (but that could easily be just dress-up) whilst all the others wear modern-compatible clothing. A ski lift could be 1930s, but snowboarding is recent - 1960s. I am fine with old buildings (I live near York which has buildings from the Roman occupation, built in 300s and still in use, all jumbled up together with modern stuff), but the vehicles and people need to be consistent.
  13. Fantastic news! Hopeful that all Lego bricks will soon be made from sustainable sources.
  14. We have just had a big heatwave here and all I can think of is the snowiness of the new winter village release: I will keep checking every day in August till it happens!
  15. Mmmm - I see what you mean with the steam train, but skiing in the Alps goes back a long way but we have the Americans to thank for the first ski lift in 1936, and the bus looks anything from 1920s to modern times.
