A Defiant Must Be For Lego Fans Across The Globe

Posted by Menwhosmilerbrave in United States on 27 March 2009

I got this set for Christmas and so far it is my best set I have ever made (I don't have Green Grocer yet and that probably will over take it, well that's is what the reviews say) the colors were miracles with the small basement too. The dark blue below the light blue make the building match each other to the tan ceiling of the store/shop. Though be warned that the people who you put inside the apartments might fall down the open stair-well in the middle of the room. But don't let this ruin your hopes of getting the set because of one small flaw, because unlike Cafe Corner the floors don't break and the floor sections don't come apart as easily. Though you don't need to be ripped to be able to take off the floor sections. Also you can change which way the sections are facing. If you look when you get the set you and build it you will see on the stores roof that there are 2 funnel things, those are chimney smoke stack things. Just the detail. I made it when I was 11 so if you are good at building legos you could buy it at age 10 or 11 but don't get to younger without an adult because some of the building is hard, especially the store.

A MUST BE

HOLY COW!

Posted by colin0906 in United States on 29 December 2008

Automatically, this set is awesome in my opinion. The Old-World Victorian style architecture has yet to be seen in another lego set, including 10182 Cafe Corner and 10185 Green Grocer. The detail is so precise that it makes an awesome display model, and the building process lacks frustration because of the relatively low number of pieces. However, this number (1248) does not detract from a fun building experience and impressive display.

The first mod is the lower left section. The mosaic sidewalk that first made an appearance in Cafe Corner comes back on a smaller scale. There are baskets with cherries, apples, and a cleverly-used Exo-force head for a cabbage. The wrought-iron gates do not detract from the appearance of the model, instead creatinga late Gothic-early Victorian feel. The detail around the owl gargoyle is amazing.

Mod 2 is the roof on top of Mod 1. The roof has beautiful detail made using circular and square-with-handle pieces. On top there are basic utility pieces, often seen on top of buildings because of how important they are to internal plumbing.

Mod 3 is the basement and spiral staircase. The grey basement does not clash with the dark blue of Mod 4, and gives the basement a concrete foundation appearance. Before this spiral staircase, the only spiral staircases were in Harry Potter sets and used specialty pieces, where as this one is formed from rotating pieces out of their usual placement, and using pieces that stop them in the correct place.

Mod 4 is dark blue, with large windows and an awning. The awnings for the 3 modular sets are all different, this one being possibly the strangest because of the fact that it has 2 sections, which must be properly alighned, else the awning won't look right.

Mod 5 has smaller windows, a balcony, and what amounts to the most out-there way of making a sunguard for the window.This comes from attaching clip pieces to a rod suspended over and behind the window.

Mod 6 is the final mod, it has a window that sticks out on the left, a balcony in front, another to the right, Gothic windows, and a lion head, common in Beaux-Arts construction. There is a terrace roof, this makes sure that the jagged roof underside cannot be seen unless the mod is rotated. The roof is removable, and on top is an A/C unit.

Overall, this set is pure awesome, and in my opinion there is nothing wrong with it, to the small exception that sometimes it is hard to place one mod on top of another. This set can connect to both Cafe Corner and the Green Grocer. Buy one now!

get 2 and it's more fun!

Posted by jgptee in Singapore on 18 July 2008

i actually bought 2 market street sets; and yes, i can now form many different buildings with these 2 same sets - a cottage (if you use the top light blue floor on its own), one building comprising just the dark blue floors and the other comprising just the light blue floors. such is the flexibility of this modular building set, and you don't have to break any brick apart! and yes, i can pile them all up in one to form a skyscraper!

Navy Blue, Medium Blue and Tan! Awesome Color Selection!

Posted by bmwlego in United States on 18 June 2008

I bought this set when it was released and couldn't be happier. I know our hobby is an expensive one so I won't complain about the price ($89.99) and if you use the $10 per 100 parts, you are getting a great deal only paying 90 bucks for 1248 pieces. The design of this set is extremely detailed and thoughtful. The courtyard on the left of the main building is a nice touch as are the decorations above the gate. The fruit baskets out front are awesome. The alternating gray and navy blue 1x1 plates that are above the windows look cool. I enjoyed the balconies on each floor and the top floor can be laid on top of the 2nd floor more than 1 way. The curved stairs in front of the building are realistically designed and are a brilliant design as well. This set has so many great details that there are too many to mention. I would recommend this set to anyone reading this review whether you are into town building or not because the colors included are not your usual white, red yellow and black.

Great-looking set.

Posted by StormSworder in United Kingdom on 18 March 2008

This is a great-looking set, is fabulously detailed and quite fun to put together. Included are fruit barrows, fancy-looking gateways and a towering building with balconies. The only problem is the inside of the main building. Instead of being one solid piece, each floor is four boards held together underneath by eight long thin plates. No matter what I do, the plates just won't stay in place, keep coming loose as I'm building the set. This means the walls above the floor become impossible to keep in place, and you can't not have the plates because otherwise there's nothing to hold the sections of the building (which sit on top of each otrher) in place. Like I say, a nice building, but I think more attention should have been paid to its interior.
