Cool! 

Wish i've seen those photos before i ordered some of those rare parts off brickink, like that sand blue grill brick and certain torzos.
Yay for curved and wedge tiles! 

Must be set in 2007, that lady is carrying a special box

So much great stuff!

Piano, drum set, train set, dentist's office, another bathroom, photo shoot...not to mention great exterior detail and parts use!

+ inverted corner(s) - everything so many have asked for, all in one set!

New pieces:

2x2 corner tile with diagonal cutout, in the pavement.
2x2 curved tile! Top of right-hand building 1st floor.
4x4 curved tile! Top of left-hand building ground and 1st floor.
strange black large curved piece in the roof of the middle building.

Can't see any more, but there might be. So so many details.

The black curved piece isn't new—it's a Technic excavator bucket, as seen in the Mercedes Benz Arocs!

Images of the new modular building are still under embargo for the next couple of hours. The official reveal is planned in 2 hours from this post (19:00 CET). Since it will be difficult to contain images or links to images (and I will not be available to moderate this thread at the moment), I will lock this topic until the official release in a couple of hours. Please come back in two hours time.

Thanks for your understanding.

So I know it is way, way too early to even get a rumor or anything about 2018, but a lot of people have had great ideas for modular buildings that have been delivered upon (bakery, music studio, flower shop hits with Assembly Square) but I also know others have mentioned quite a few we haven't gotten.  I know folks have mentioned police station, hospital, museum similar to the Ideas one, hardware store, apartments, city park type build, etc...now I read a rumor that Assembly Square might be it...just wondered if others think this rumor is even based on any evidence or just that, hearsay.  Also any other builds you can think of?  I was looking at a local area to me and came up with Paint Store, Fitness gym, other food place like Italian with pizza, Shoe Store, Pharmacy - could be part of hospital, auto mechanic, and of course, church or bar, but these last two I just can't see happening although they are all over and really a part of most any landscape in any city.

Can Think of 12 Modulars for the next block:

1. School 

2. Library

3. Hospital 

4. Police Station

5. Auto Mechanic/Gas Station

6. Pizzeria 

7. Museum

8. Hardware Store

9. Toy Store

10. Deli

11. Bicycle Shop

12. Soda Shop / Diner (1950s Style)

After three Modulars consisting of two or more buildings/businesses, I hope that the next Modular is single focused (e.g. police station or hospital).

A school, library, museum, post office or block of apartments may also be a single building, but I'm not sure how likely they all are.

I remember i suggested this list (here or somewhere else) :

  • Museum
  • Hospital
  • Police station
  • Court
  • Post office
  • Tourist Office
  • School
  • Library / Bookstore
  • Theater
  • Opera
  • Fish shop
  • Bakery > Jamie did it in Assembly Square!
  • Garage / Dealer
  • Florist > Jamie did it in Assembly Square!
  • Butchery

I think the next modular will mix 2 or 3 shops regarding to the last sets. And these shops should be connected by one feature at least :

  • Police station or Court + Lawyer Office
  • School + Book Store
  • ...

I wouldn't mind if they do another 48 wide modular. It gives a lot more possibilities for adding open spaces like little squares, parks and alleyways, which add a lot more variation to a modular street. It would also offer more possibilities to offer modulars connected by a story line (of which I'm surprised there isn't more in the current modular).

Thinking a bit more about it, considering we had a corner modular this year, releasing two 48 wide "straight" modulars in 2017 and 2018 may well be their plan. :sweet: Better start saving for a double corner with an inverted corner on of four 32 x 32 baseplates in 2019. :moar: :laugh:

Once you swap the baseplates, Assembly Square is made up of two corner modulars.

I totally agree with you Rick. Lego broke the "box style" of the first modulars introducing the Pet Shop in two separate buildings (watch Jamie's video of this set), then offered more variation of colors and shapes with Parisian Restaurant and Detective Office. But Assembly Square will break more the "wall of brick" with the alley and the fountain. I hope they will do a 48x32 modulars for 2018 with the same style (lot of offices and shops but without downsizing the set).

Right!

Yeah, 48 wide is nice and adds something to the mix. But I hope TLG releases another 32x16 modular like the Pet Shop.

Only prediction I made about the modular that would become Assembly Square was that there could be a dentist's office or a small clinic. :grin:
