natelite Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 for those who said plumes are history...look at the top floor. you'd be pleasantly surprised! :-P Quote
yellost Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Wow! It looks fantastic! And those furnitures *wub* *wub* *wub* !! Aaaaaand we have a Winneeeeeer! Quote
Joebot Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 The set was already at the top notch in my book, now I need to make room for more notches, because it just moved up a few notches more.I didn't fully expect an interior, but was crossing my fingers for one. Not only does this have an interior, but what an interior! A grandfather-clock! A proper old-style radiator! Mailboxes! And a fully stocked grocery-store! @ Joebot; yes, it's just an apartment. But that's not a bad thing, is it? :-P Absolutely not!! It's a great thing! It's been years since Lego designed some place for all their police officers and firemen to actually LIVE. :-P Quote
mutley777 Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Very, very nice! I would love to see whats on the other floor (the first) and the roof garden though. Quote
Kliq Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 No way!!!! I can't believe my eyes! Leave it to TLC to make an already perfect set even better! This surpasses CC in my book, but they'll still look great together!! :-) Quote
Mr Hobbles Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 OH MY GOD I AM SO EXCITED I SIMPLY MUST TYPE IN CAPS! Seriously, WOW. TLC is gonna be getting even more of my money than I imagined. I literally squealed like a little girl when I saw those pictures. :-( Ah well, it was worth the humiliation. X-D Quote
Wout Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 These pics looks very good. The interior looks like it was made by an afol. Inside grocer shop is terrffic. Radiator is great. Great clock is very nice. *y* *wub* Now something like this in a smaller cheaper version for normal shops. :-) Quote
Asuka Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Wow, thanks, whung! *y* What a wonderful set this is.... :'-) Quote
Dr. Brick Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Oh yes, it doesn't get any better than this. (it probally can get better, lets wait for 2009... :-P ) One con: One of the windows is one like this. I was hoping it would also be a new mold. :-( The rest is *wub* though. Dr. Brick Quote
dunamis Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Wow, it looks amazing and makes me want it even more. Can't wait to build it! Quote
Svelte Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Absolutely stunning. I'm in love! It's the happy inbetween of the intricate design of CC and the nice interior detail of Town Plan. God, I'm glad I'm an adult and can afford this stuff - if I was a kid looking at these kinds of sets and having to wait for Xmas or birthdays (if then) I think I'd probably explode. Or run away to Denmark. Quote
ExoBuilder Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Dang! Now I have to get this set! The interior is beautiful! I have new plans for my money now! >:-) *sweet* Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 X-O My, it has an interior! Now this is officially the best one. Better than Cafe Corner. I love it. *wub* The interior is beautiful, and the clock... Lego, you have outdone yourself. *wub* *drools* -ZotS Quote
salty tbone Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) One of the windows is one like this. I was hoping it would also be a new mold. :-( The rest is *wub* though. Dr. Brick Nuts, you're right. I was hoping for a new 2x3x1 window mold, but I'll let the awesomeness of the rest of the set drown out any disappointment. :-) If this has already been discussed, I'm sorry if I missed it, but can anyone tell how the black railing on the roof is done? (I've looked at it so long, my eyes are going buggy) It looks to me like a row of black skeleton legs with a bar running the length of the roof. I can't figure out what the star-like "details" are, though. Edited January 31, 2008 by salty tbone Quote
maiq the liar Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Oh wow, now i have to balance this+Town plan+market street+cafe corner+police (YES, Albrickuerque still needs a police force) somehow... Quote
Scouty Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Hooray for interior! *wub* The Grand father clock and the grocery store is rockin. Quote
ultraman_bc Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Another must-get for me. Geez, now I need to seriously think of what to do with the interiors of my CC and MS. Anyway, a big thanks to whung for the good find. Quote

I can't figure out what the star-like "details" are, though. Well, I don't know exactly but what I do know is that those are not skeleton legs, probably some clever cone/round-plate construction. We can always relate to the parts list placed on Flickr by Paksu79 as mentioned in this thread. It shows no sign of skeletonlegs.... :-) Quote
jayber1974 Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Thanks whung for the extra pictures. I was ready to buy this set based on the first lot of pictures from Kanal-K1. I did not expect an interior! *wub* This has become a must for me. *y* Quote
salty tbone Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Well, I don't know exactly but what I do know is that those are not skeleton legs, probably some clever cone/round-plate construction.We can always relate to the parts list placed on Flickr by Paksu79 as mentioned in this thread.

(It doesn't include windows, doors or bananas -- that's the most obvious I could pick out) At any rate, now I have a new idea to use skeleton legs in my mocs! *sweet* Quote
paksu Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Thanks, I forgot about those pics, although that doesn't seem to be a complete part list. (It doesn't include windows, doors or bananas -- that's the most obvious I could pick out) The windows and doors are new parts, maybe that's why they weren't on the spare parts list... The list also lacks the green base plates, and the carrots. What I find most strange when I look at the spare parts now, is where did all the sand green come from? Nevertheless, what a set! *wub* My Cafe Corner just found a new best friend! Now release it already! Quote
brickzone Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Well, I don't know exactly but what I do know is that those are not skeleton legs, probably some clever cone/round-plate construction.We can always relate to the parts list placed on Flickr by Paksu79 as mentioned in this thread. It shows no sign of skeletonlegs.... :-) They look like skeleton legs to me too. Is the parts list definitely definitive? The "stars" may be those clip-bar parts (you know, the exoforce robot hands) clipped onto the railing. Quote
Janey Red Brick Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 If this has already been discussed, I'm sorry if I missed it, but can anyone tell how the black railing on the roof is done? (I've looked at it so long, my eyes are going buggy) It looks to me like a row of black skeleton legs with a bar running the length of the roof. I can't figure out what the star-like "details" are, though. It is skeleton legs... but the "bar" is this Minifig mallet (http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4522) which gives you the "star-like" details you mention. Quote
alex54 Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 What a great surprise, some interior furnitures! It lakes an open back to see all those details, without remooving the different levels... By the way, It's really a must have set! Quote
Tarfful Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 If I was going to buy 1 Citi set that would be it, simplu stunning! But sadly I don't collect Citi sets *sad* . General Tarful Quote
