This is an exceptional set.
(Geez, now I have to rethink my urban planning... and now there will be a run on the CMF Pretzel Girl.)
Oh... @pharmjod - Wakie! Wakie! There is some actual news!
New and notable pieces:
NEW 2x2 corner tile with diagonal cutout, in the pavement.
Thor's hammer as architectural detail in the middle building roof-line.
Plain chicken as architectural feature in right-hand building
NEW 2x2 curved tile! Top of right-hand building 1st floor.
NEW 4x4 curved tile! Top of left-hand building ground and 1st floor.
NEW strange black large curved piece in the roof of the middle building.
Best modular of the last few years, day 1 buy for sure, ending what I hope is the trend of smaller modulars (even if the high price will hurt a bit)
Now onto the things that bug me: Why do you need to go through the pastry shop to get to the dentist, apartment and roof of the middle building.... (yes, not much bugs me in this set)
I saw a site post it
Ohhh f...
Incidentally, the Eurobricks thread has been locked until the official reveal in 2 hours time.
It looks like a very interesting set of buildings with a huge amount going on everywhere. It'll definitely add some variety to a line of modulars...
I love the trans-clear garage door windows, they look fantastic!
Day one purchase for me! :-)
/runsawayquickly! ;-)
I do try not to get carried away by hyperbole, but this set really does have me excited!
Edit: Sorry, I saw Paperballpark has already mentioned these. This thread was moving too quickly.
As for the modular... crumbs. I thought I could just buy one because the theme appealed to me and not covet the others, but I have been proved wrong!
A bit overloaded, a bit too messy.
And maybe I'm wrong but is it 1.5 as wide as normal modular? So double price, almost double parts, and only 1.5 wide?
Easy pass, GHQ is coming!
Nm, found it.
My only complaint is that it includes another corner building. Im not sure that I am a fan of having a corner building (Brick Bank) next to another corner. Then again this set looks great standing by itself and doesn't need the support of other modulars to look really cool. In then end I may end up displaying it on its own.

All the new elements in this set is really cool!
For what it's worth, those of you that were hoping for Lego to re-release Cafe Corner, you have it the jackpot!!! Cafe Corner, Green Grocer AND Market street!!! Although, they are a little smaller than I remember ;) You also get the Grand Carousel; I wonder if the box is mint ;)
