I like the building but not a fan of the color.
what does everyone else think?

My initial reaction is similar, like the building not crazy about the color.

IMO the modular buildings rank (roughly):

Green Grocer
Cafe Corner
Pet Shop
Fire Brigade
Grand Emporium
(Market Street, if you want to include it)

[How would everyone else rank them?]

One of the strikes against the Grand Emporium is how it's mostly one color, I'm worried the new one might have the same issue.

At 2766 pieces I think there's no doubt this one will also be more expensive. Optimistic guess $250 US/$300 CDN?

I like the design, but yeah I'm not sure about that colour... what colour is that anyway?

My ranking's the same as JamesH's.

I love it, will be my 1st modular building purchase. Its 'old' enough to work with my collection
Also we get a new clock piece, the wedding couple, a ton dark orange including arches
I know where I'll be buying mine; at the Vancouver Lego store! :D
2012 have mercy on my wallet!

Brickapedia has it at $149.99 USD, so $199.99 CDN ?

the piece count is too high for $150.00 USD the estimates I have seen have been $180 USD, but who knows, the piece count and 8 minifigures I think it is going too be expensive.

I knew you where going to say that. Coming from someone with not as big a colection.. I like this set. I buy sets that come with cool pieces and more than one of them, otherwise may as well bricklink it. with this set you get tons of the one color. :D


I would rank them:

fire hall
green grocer
grand emporium
cafe' corner
market street
pet shop
They called me loser... I called me BrickStar

Wow, so whoever took that pic has the set in hand already.

Although that's a pretty silly-looking elevator... :p
