Is it a good time to get some City sets? 28% off of the original MSRP. Oh you got a good deal right in Arctic? That’s amazing (sarcastically). If you want some sets, go get them now or you would miss opporunitty. Quote

danimarroquin Posted August 2, 2023 Posted August 2, 2023 so, it seems that the family home will be retire by January, having just 6 months run just like the grocery store. Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted August 2, 2023 Posted August 2, 2023 (edited) I've got mixed feelings about this year's City Center: Exterior: On the one hand it looks very detailed and nicely designed, on the other hand there are too much different architectual styles for my taste. So I would more have liked two completely seperated big houses, each one with a different (only one) architectual style. Interior: There are rooms which have some very nice and decent interior (pizza hut, barber's shop, hotel room). But there are also ones, which definately lack interior details and wall decorations and therefore look unfinished and empty (comic store, hotel reception, vet, smartphone store, no wall behind the blogger in his room). Minifigures and accessory: Imo there are enough minifigures and nice and fitting accessory for them. Vehicles: On the one hand I welcome it that this set isn't overloaded with vehicles like past city centers had been. But one more vehicle like a taxi or a rickshaw would have been nice for the high price. All in all, my favourite city center til now still is 60097 City Square. 2 hours ago, danimarroquin said: so, it seems that the family home will be retire by January, having just 6 months run just like the grocery store. Since it's my favourite 2023 City set (like was the grocery my favourite 2022 City set), this is really a pity. Edited August 2, 2023 by Klaus-Dieter Quote
Legocity2713 Posted August 2, 2023 Posted August 2, 2023 The advent calendar this year looks stellar. Reminds me of one of the first one’s I got back in 2010. I haven’t bought a calendar since 2013 but might have to this year. The gaming set up, the dinner area, the sign, the lady holding the cande. It is all proper homeley. Quote

The space sets are a different story; barring truly bad designs/juniorisation (which seems unlikely given the PPPs), I am getting all of them. I like the more sci-fi direction that the theme seems to be moving in, with a mech and aliens - A first for LEGO city (not counting the alien head balloon/puppet from the space centre people pack).

Definitely getting one, perhaps even two... Will make one into a A320neo and another one into a MD-90. I haven't figured out how I will modify the engine intakes though. The fans should be inset and not flat mounted at the front. Quote
