I thought I would start my own thread after being inspired by all the other town MOCs i have seen over the past few months. Only started collecting lego this year and fell in love with modulars. Hopefully this thread documents the growth of my town...Legoton!

I started with the Fire Brigade, then got the Emporium soon after. Just came back from Berlin a fews ago with the Pet Shop in tow. Other sets i have that i want to integrate with my town include the Emerald Night, Tower Bridge, and the yellow train station. Still havent gotten around to buying the road plates but plan to do that this weekend.

Anyways here are the first set of pictures i have taken. First time using my DSLR for lego photography so need lots of improvement.

The main street filled with minifigs:

The Pet Shop owner loses one of the monkeys:

The struggling artist cant catch a break:

The local firemen meet and greet the locals:

Keeping the town clean:

King Kong vs Godzilla in downtown Legoton:

A local rapper tries to whip up a crowd:

Teenagers doing what they do best:

The annual Ultimate Fighter Roof Challenge 2011 draws in the best fighters in town:

The local police department are currently based on top of the Pet Store (and next to the doctors surgery):

Its cramped but there is not much crime in Legoton to justify a new building...yet:

Its even more cramped in the cell above the station:

Its lonely in Legoton PD holding cell:

And finally a sneak peek into the new fitout in the Grand Emporium, level 2 Cafe:

Thats all for now. I plan to add a few more touches and trying to get Green Grocer soon. Hope you like it so far.

That's a great start of a brand new town StevOOO. I like the way how you've incorporated a police station and a doctor's office. Also, the cafe is a nice touch as well! A pretty busy town, with plenty of things going on (from backyard up to the roofs). Would love to see your future expansions.

Get nice little town so far. I love all the action, reminds me of the stories I used to come up with. I like how you used the apartment of the pet shop as a police department, very clever.

Great photos and lots of action going on in your town. I'm recently out of my lego dark ages and picked up the Emerald Night, Grand Emporium, Fire Brigade, and Tower Bridge. I would have bought the Pet Shop this week, but instead ordered baseplates and the yellow cargo train since I wanted to expand my layout. I have a thread going on in the Train forum looking for setup ideas.

I too am looking for the elusive Green Grocer. I'm kicking myself for not picking it up last year ON SALE. There's a local buy with a sealed one for $400, but wont budge....
