Far too much good stuff coming out at the moment. This is going to cause more friction in my house:

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'm going to start with Café Corner and then see if I can stretch to Market Street in a month or two.

I messaged the person selling asking for a set number and either they didn't understand (or properly read) or ducked the question. For me, a set number would be good evidence that this was real.

It definitely looks real but I'm not 100% convinced!

Town Plan, Market Street and Café Corner

I'm going to get one of these this month but was wondering which one people here would suggest. In the long-term I suppose I'd like all of them (who wouldn't?!) and so I think I'd most like to get the one that is most likely to sell out quickest. Does anybody have an idea what this might be? Thanks ...

Question re MOC instructions

Hi everyone

I'm still new to this MOC lark and am looking for pointers. Are there any good sources online for instructions for other people's MOCs. I need some inspiration!

Thanks

So where are these sets availible now? Seems like lego has these for sale quite far flung. I keep hoping to see them for sale locally but the stores around here seem to stock mostly out of date stuff. I think I will likely just do some more lego orders online. Sorry my Canadian friends about the pr...

Does any of our UK or Irish contingent know whether the things for sale at Argos in the two countries are the same? There doesn't seem to have been an update to what is available on the UK Argos website so far...

How To...

I'm in the process of building my first MOC and have found the How To section on the site really useful - especially the bit about foliage. I was wondering if there were other sources of help for other geographical features. As part of my MOC I was looking to include a mountain with a stream running...

The catalogue has it labelled as 'Hard To Find', but when the majority of the products are marked similarly, it kinda creates availability questions on Lego in general. The guy at my local independent toy shop (I'm in north London) said that there was a worldwide Lego shortage. At the time I though...

Definitely would like some sets that cover life outside the fighting in the Lego Castle universe.

Other than that I'd like to see more different types of creatures along the fantasy theme and maybe different types of military units that we've not had before.
