Ondra Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 http://zusammengebaut.com/toy-fair-2016-all-new-lego-creator-sets-lets-start-the-journey-4289/ RV set is for me winner in system world for 2016.But twin rotor helicopter look pretty awful, I will pass for sure... Quote
XAxles Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I don't know, I kind of like the helo. A twin-rotor helicrane is novel, and there's still the alternate builds. Could be about 8-10 studs longer, but yeah, I'm OK with it. Also, tracks. Quote
jonwil Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 That helicopter looks like a cross between a Boeing CH-47 Chinook and a Sikorsky S-64 Skycrane. Quote
David Thomsen Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I'm actually really impressed at how they made a two story building out of an RV. If you had told me that there was going to be a Creator set where the primary build was an RV and the second a two-story building, I would have said you were making things up. But there it is. Quote
Nequmodiva Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 There is one thing that could make this helicopter interesting: looking at the picture there should be enough space inside to link the rotors with gears. Or am I just dreaming? This would be a novelty in the recent creator line. Quote
dr_sarcophagus Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I too am hoping for the continuation of the amsuement sub-theme. I'm actually hoping they alternate, one year a travelling ride, the next year a statis ride, and so on. I'd like to see a waltzer, dodgems, gravity wheel, etc. The amusement park friends sets have great potential for a sideshow alley. Quote
peter_m Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) What can I say ... I absolutely love this set. I probably have to buy two of these, one for the van, one for the house! <picture cut out> Amazing job TLG - gives me the Creator Expert VW T1 Camper Van feeling when I look at this gorgous box and set I love the potential of this set. It seems to be a perfect gift set both for die-hard Lego fan and newbie. With this set you get 3 different scenarios to play with. Simply awesome! Edited January 29, 2016 by peter_m Quote
Bissspuren Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Surprisingly the lighthouses from creator and scooby doo lines cost the same. I'm still undecided which I like more... What i the better deal in your opinion? Quote
parsom Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Looks like there is a light brick in the light house! You were right: Quote
tafkatb Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Surprisingly the lighthouses from creator and scooby doo lines cost the same. I'm still undecided which I like more... What i the better deal in your opinion? I'd lean heavily in the Creator one's favor - though I don't think we have a piece count for it yet, I'd wager it's a better price per piece since Creator sets usually are. Plus it has a light brick.

Boettner Builds Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 That box art has me liking even more!! Quote
jonwil Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 The more interesting question is how this new lighthouse compares to the previous Creator lighthouse set from a few years back (on price, on design, on piece content etc) Quote
parsom Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 (edited) The 5770 is bigger (I mean the tower, not the piece number in whole set) Edited January 30, 2016 by parsom Quote

Plus it has a light brick. That box art has me liking even more!! Hi, Me too, I find this lighthouse more interesting than the Scooby one. I think it will be an automatic buy for me. I was quite disappointed by the first wave of Creator sets this year but it seems TLG kept some amazing sets for the summer ! Good for me, I will be able to buy more LEGO after the middle of the year (budget troubles will be over...) That camping car is so great and the alternatives builds seems very good, as the lighthouse it's a no brain buy I think ! Quote
davidmull Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 You were right: When is this going to be available? Quote
Silverwolf28 Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 I got my first creator set, Corner Deli, this week. This is my first modular. I liked the design and it was cheap haha. I may go for the bank when I get my tax refund. Is the bank worth getting? Quote

I may go for the bank when I get my tax refund. Is the bank worth getting? Yes, The brick bank is worth getting, I got it already, and it is a great part to put with all other modular buildings.

Silverwolf28 Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Planning on getting the Brick Bank and maybe the bike/cafe set during March double points. I really like the auto repair build from the bike/cafe set as it will go nicely with what my downtown plans. Quote

I may go for the bank when I get my tax refund. Is the bank worth getting? I also got the pet shop a few weeks back and deli. I wouldn't class the deli as modular but it is nice. Iv just ordered the palace cinema. I'll get the older ones first. Quote
appiah4 Posted February 24, 2016 Posted February 24, 2016 You were right: This looks surprisingly like the Friends Lighthouse I was going to buy my wife.. I might hold on for this.. Or not.. :S Not sure.. Quote
Fritzy Posted March 10, 2016 Posted March 10, 2016 Is there anything you need to know about the Friends version that would help you make a decision? I have the set but have yet to build it. Quote
cadre Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 The May Lego store calendar is out. 31052 Vacation Getaway will be available in May, it doesn't mention anything about any of the other Creator sets though. Quote
Brickthusiast Posted March 23, 2016 Posted March 23, 2016 How about that new exclusive set, is there any info about it? Maybe a new Creator car... Quote
CM4Sci Posted March 23, 2016 Author Posted March 23, 2016 How about that new exclusive set, is there any info about it? Maybe a new Creator car... I think that's later, I think this one is gonna be Big Ben. Quote
