We need a hospital modular building already.
With how many criminals there are on the loose, and how much funding the police get, it’s extra concerning that LEGO city doesn’t have very many hospitals. They used to be just as common as the police stations and fire departments during the 90s and early 00s. Shame.
Even the animals have a hospital...the minifigs only get a dentist!
That 1980s hospital (#6380) set was so cool. Always wanted that one.
@@yoavbenclaudia3073 The criminals only steal donuts, and no one carries weapons, so no one actually gets hurt :) I think the Lego police have a deal with the crooks to let them run rampant, because that way the Lego City Council will fund an endless string of fancy police stations, helicopters, cruisers, etc.
Natural History Museum feels less like a straight facade building, but more like a "stand alone" building.
Ideally, I think it would be. It would be nice to create a park around it, kind of like what we have here in Cleveland with University Circle (world-class museums and arts, lots of walking paths and trees).
I hope the modular building 2025 is Hospital or School🤞😁
They should make a Leaky Cauldron modular building where the Diagon Alley can be connected at the back
THAT would be cool! I was so disappointed that the Gringotts had the underground vault section. $500 was just too much to get a one-building extension to a $400 set.
Don’t forget the train station preorders are meant to release in November as well
True. Unfortunately, we didn't get one! I'm curious to see how it looks next to other modulars.
A train station?!?!? That sounds very exciting!!
I really want a hospital or university. Post office would also be cool.
The prices are completely insane anyway - I'll buy this only heavily discounted or used - imagine thinking their pricing is fair for this ass quality
It's still hard to tell the quality until official announcements. But I hope they're top-notch.
my guess (an hope) is the Xmansion may have more green space on each side to make it look more like an estate
That might make it fit well with some Botanical Gardens sets (either the Ideas one or the Friends set).
Botanical garden hype!
I really hope its that library that was submitted on Lego Ideas. That looks like the perfect corner set. It also looks so beautiful and the earth tone colors go so well together.
I imagine the pricing on the X-Mansion would reflect licensing and the inclusion of a bunch of minifgures. (I'd much rather pay less and get no minifigures with sets.) The Victorian-style botanical garden looks really good, if a bit redundant with the earlier Friends set.
Absolutely, there has to be a licensing "tax" included in the cost. The Sanctum Sanctorum was a pretty good value, though, despite being licensed.
@@buildingtogether4171 I was fortunate to get that one at a reasonable price. I have zero interest in Marvel at this point due to superhero movie/tv fatigue, but it's a cool-looking building that fits in architecturally with some other modulars I have.
But a common question in the community that only Lego could answer is: do those licensing fees jack up the prices of particular product lines or sets, or are they amortized across all Lego sets?
@@buildingtogether4171 Marvel sets are often very expensive, like the Hoopty or the X-Men plane. I assume that Lego thinks Marvel fans have a lot of money.
Dont forget Corner Garage but every corner has had at least a commercial aspect with few residential ones
Good point - can't forget about that one! It really is one of the most unique (and controversial) modulars.
@@buildingtogether4171 also one of the few that include a separate vehicle, i think its the last one too (i dont include the cart in the Boutique Hotel) they missed the boat by not including a police car in that modular
Vind die grafzerken echt heel vet. Geeft het ook een creepy idee als je alleen maar rondloopt
and there's also the burrow in september and next year a building from twilight and the Italian Reviera. They're probably not modular compatible but I don't care, it's nice that TLG makes more buildings outside of the modular collection.
Agreed. I love buildings so much more than vehicles. I'm very curious to see how the Italian Riviera turns out. It likely won't be modular compatible, but the possibility of it being great is very high (kinda like the Viking Village).
For the Icons modular building for 2025, here are a few ideas I have for what it could be (These are more like wishes than predictions, but I tried to keep them realistic):
- Mini mart/Bodega
- Gym/Health Club (Kinda like a YMCA)
- Antique Store
- Shopping mall
Interesting! The shopping mall could be similar to the old Grand Emporium (but hopefully more exciting on the exterior). There was a gym above the Downtown Diner, but we have so many gyms here in the US that it wouldn't be unusual to have 2 in the same downtown.
I really like the antique store idea as well as the bodega. The Green Grocer was the closest we got to that and it came out in 2008!
@@buildingtogether4171 I'm envisioning the shopping mall as looking a lot more modern than Grand Emporium. Maybe 70s or 80s style architecture, with a large glass wall on one side to allow easy viewing of the inside (There's a mall in Washington called Southcenter, this is where I got the idea for the glass wall if you want a real life reference). Obviously it would have a food court, a staple of any mall. I imagine the first floor would have the food court and maps/directory, and the remaining 2 floors would be dedicated to stores. Some ideas I have for stores are a clothing store, toy store, Lego store, and sporting goods store.
As for the gym/health club, I think what sets my idea apart from the one in the diner is that it would be a dedicated gym, not just a small gym as part of another building. It would probably have stuff like treadmills, weights, locker rooms, a sauna, a basketball court, a rock climbing wall, and a swimming pool.
For the antique store and bodega, I think it would probably have the business on the first floor, with apartments or other businesses on the remaining 2 floors. I could see the antique store maybe taking up 2 floors with just one floor of apartments above it, but I don't think I've ever seen a mini mart with multiple floors, so that definitely would only take up one floor.
Worth noting that the Pantasy bakery modular has a cool gym on the upper floor. (Which is pretty funny since it's located over a pastry shop!)
@@WeirdBrain I really like the indoor mall idea, which would appeal to Lego fans of, ahem, a certain age :) I wonder about scale, though. Lego always plays it fast and loose with scale issues, but to create anything like a believably sized mall, they would need to make a really huge modular. And that would mean a really huge price. (For a realistic mall, they should have one little Lego car in the parking lot, and all but one store boarded up inside :D )
I'm excited for whats coming but I'm not sure if I will get them. My favorite modular in my city is the bookshop/apt. I didn't get the museum and will probably stay away from these large modular sets too, opting for building my own half modulars instead from city sets
Custom modulars are a lot of fun to build. We just finished our music shop and will drop the video soon. The only issue is it can be easy to get carried away with rare pieces and spend too much on a creation!
Wasn't it all of a week ago that we were all having tears about there being fewer modulars because of rule submission changes. I guess sometimes it pays to wait and see.
There still may be fewer "modulars" in the long-run. If we're fortunate to get 3 modulars over the next couple of months, I'd be shocked if it happens again any time soon (and I'm still a bit skeptical we actually see 3 compatible buildings).
I think the key with the Bricklink guidelines is that it removes the possibility of getting any modulars, even if they never were guaranteed. It's better to have hope than to not have any chance!
The exception that proves the rule. That would still be a drop in the bucket compared to the vast number of, say, Star Wars sets that Lego dumps on the market every year.
I've been collecting the Modulars since the beginning (yep - even have Market Street), and I'd like to see them reign in their prices a bit... That said, I just finished the FunWhole Antique shop which was a fantastic build (was hoping for a Lego version for years), and hope we finally see a school or hospital
I have also got the lot and turned one of my Town Halls into a high school. Just needed stairs and I only built two stories.
Both would be great! There's no end to the possibilities! What bugged me most about the Natural History Museum was the jump in price. Not that I thought the value wasn't there, but I really hope it was a one-off and they revert back to $200-$225 range. What I fear is that they end up going down to $250 and that becomes the new "normal".
@@buildingtogether4171 That's pretty much been their practice: normalize price hikes, the same way they normalized the idea of $.10/part being a fair or good value. (How and when that particular idea got stuck in everyone's head would make for a good anthropology/economics video.)
I'm glad other makers are stepping in and filling the modular void. The Pantasy bakery/gym is also a really fun, high-quality build.
@@SO-ym3zs The price hike from a few years ago where they added 20.00 to 40.00 to certain sets boggled my mind... (the claim was inflation, which if adjusted accordingly would have been 5 to 10 tops...). Sadly, the 'collectors market' blowing up the prices on older sets has been a drag as well (began around 2015). I'm happy to see comparable quality competitors coming out with wonderful sets for realistic prices.
That's a lot of money if all of them are good. 😅
I know! I'm hoping our videos do really well and we can snag them!
Thanks for this video. Can I please ask what brand/model of storage are the tall white drawer style unite behind you. Thanks for you help because I need to get my storage under control so I can find stuff.
Hi! Those are Sterilite containers. I've purchased over the span of 15+ years (hence the different colors) when they've been on sale.
@@buildingtogether4171 Thanks so much.
hopefully this is true! Least two would be great
Here's hoping!
I think the avengers tower is going to be my last marvel modular added to my city its in my backlog right now but I need to do a parts order to finish the half baseplate corner around it first which in turn will allow me to make a marvel themed downtown corner in my city once its added since I cornered off the left side of my bugles sidewalk and I still have my half corner moc from my police station modular which also works with my moc pet shop which right now isn't in my city since I have a lot going on the next 3 months so I am planing to not do a lot other then clean up my city since all I have for sets are Christmas sets both the holiday themed ones and literal Christmas gifts from the past 5 years to still do.
It sounds like you're going to be busy this Christmas! That's a lot of fun building.
@@buildingtogether4171 Maybe but at least I had all the parts to finish the marvel corner except for the avengers tower set I need to build.
The Lego x mansion is a Christmas gift for sure can’t wait for it
I hope it's really good! We're only getting it if it's of the same quality as an official modular or the Sanctum Sanctorum.
You 5got the corner garage brah
what if Lego won't release the modular building for 2024/25? Maybe the modular IS the Botanical Garden...
Good question. I doubt that's the case because it will be branded as a Lego Ideas set and not Icons. They've kept those lines fairly distinct over the past few years - Medieval Blacksmith was Ideas; Lion Knights' Castle was Icons. Both were castle themed.
I don’t see the link to your large MOC on Rebrickable. Could you post it, or list the MOC number? Thank you.
We have the Guarded Inn Remake as well as the Botanical Gardens (3x):
rebrickable.com/users/BuildingTogether/mocs/
Thanks for checking them out!
The music shop instructions are not up on Rebrickable yet. We have a few revisions to make first.
I don't like the Daily Bugle and would never buy it. I don't mind the Avengers tower but it is too tall to stand alone.
Exactly. I kinda like the Bugle and would buy it on sale or with double points (at least). But to have 1 super-tall building and everything else be 2 or 3 levels is awkward.
I can’t stand these modular city sets. Why in the Sam Hill did I click on this video?!?
Because we're so charming? Ha!
@@buildingtogether4171 yup, that’s got to be it! 😂
Lego sucks...
