Astar Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 WOW! I am shocked at how many details there are in the store... this is incredible!
just2good Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 The 2,179-brick edifice will set you back $199.99 — that's less than two boxes of Kwik-E-Mart Valentine's chocolates. The Lego set is part of a year-long 25th anniversary celebration of the Kwik-E-Mart's first appearance on 'The Simpsons.' Aha! I knew it'd be over 2,000 pieces!

Krulis Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Frozen Jasper in a fridge. Love the attention to details.
Robert8 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Thanks for the pictures! It looks heavily detailed and it opens like The Simpsons House Love the frozen Jasper! And the Angry Dad comic! It even has the camera that filmed Sideshow Bob disguised Krusty back in Season 1 So there are 2 new moulds in this set, right?
WhiteFang Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 This is totally unexpected! I also include the overall image view in here.
Back to the Brick Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Thanks for the pictures, it's very nice and detailled. Hopefully cheaper than the house.
gylman Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I didn't much care for the Simpson's House, but this is a whole different matter. Very nice. Now let's wait for the Piece of Resistance - Moe's.
Mestari Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Let them do Moe's, let them do Moe's, let them do Moe's... PLEASE! ;) LEGO did so much against their non-alcohol thing already, and that would sell like hot buns. I hoped we would get some different color that standard yellow for the walls, but this looks good anyway. For the price they will ask for it in Poland - a pass, but I'll try to find it elsewhere.
Big-whoop-Guybrush Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 300 pieces short of the house but the same price. Guess we're looking at £179 in the UK. I was hoping for £149 max
ARSLOCK Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 So it looks like wiggum's got a new torso? Donut stains? The Simpsons themselves seem unchanged though? 2179 pieces vs 2523 pieces of the Simpsons House for the same price. I wish they'd knock like $20 off but I'm still getting this day one. Exciting!!! When's the VIP release April 15?
Big-whoop-Guybrush Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Only change in the simpsons is their eyes - they've lost the "stoner" eyes which they have in the house set
adik_sa_lego Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Am I the only one sort of underwhelmed? The details are amazing yes, but it seems that those details are what solely drove the price up. Brick count is inflated too with all the 2x2s and 1x1s.
kris kelvin Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 Even frozen Jasper :) I'll keep it short and sweet. Family, religion, friendship. These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in Lego business. When opportunity knocks, you don't want to be driving to a maternity hospital or sitting in some phony-baloney church. Or synagogue. I'll keep it short and sweet - this is sweet.
lowbike1 Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) that looks like alot of stickers... but cool nonetheless Also, very intrigued to see more of that squishie cup snake is holding Edited March 12, 2015 by lowbike1
gazumpty Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 *Kaboom* sorry chaps but that was the sound of my head exploding in excitement! Now having sacrificed my kidney to attain the Simpsons house....I'm quickly running out of organs to fund this next venture....wonder how much I could get for my Grandmother
Balbo Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I love the Kwik E Mart The interior is just amazing, I didn't expect that they will include so many details like the frozen Jasper in the fridge. Snake, Chief Wiggum with a donat and Apu look great, too.
Meiko Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 So much for the embargo LEGO had on these images until 2:00pm GMT...
Hepitos Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 EUR 200,- for what? For Snake? Every Simpson Fan already got all of the CMF figures..... Very poor Set :(
*thomas* Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 This looks great! It would also blend in well with a regular town/city lay-out...
tafkatb Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 EUR 200,- for what? For Snake? Every Simpson Fan already got all of the CMF figures..... Very poor Set :( I don't know if you noticed, but if you look really closely you'll see that behind the minifigures there is a 2000+ piece set, so if I had to venture a guess I'd say that's what much of the €200 pays for.
LegoDakin Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 This looks as though it will be a brilliant set
XAxles Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I don't know if you noticed, but if you look really closely you'll see that behind the minifigures there is a 2000+ piece set, so if I had to venture a guess I'd say that's what much of the €200 pays for. And the argument continues.Personally, I just wanted this set because DAMN LOOK AT THAT SQUISHEE DISPENSER!!! AND CASES OF BEER!!! It's got everything my local 24-hour convenience store has, and MOAR!!! Seriously, who in their right minds would not want to see the whole set and just look at the figs? Or do some think that MOC's are better than what TLG has dropped just now and find this extra underwhelming?
just2good Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Only change in the simpsons is their eyes - they've lost the "stoner" eyes which they have in the house set I guess LEGO listened to the complaints. I was honestly hoping for more eye variation, but it's a smart move to do this. The first series is discontinued, and they've put the most recognizable versions of Marge, Bart, and Homer in this set for those who missed the first series. I bet this set will be on the market for many years. I'd also imagine that the next D2C set, if there is one, would have the regular versions of Lisa. Maggie's normal version comes in the House set.

Itaria No Shintaku Posted March 12, 2015 Posted March 12, 2015 I believe in Kwik-E-Mart I said that. You gotta trust Itaria No Shin.
