hello again as you may have seen by now Lego has unveiled the latest creator
expert modular building and it is the corner garage in this video I'm going to
go through the pictures that they've shown and share just my own personal
subjective thoughts about it not as a preview to my eventual review of the
thing once it's released but just telling you how I feel because well a
lot of people have asked for videos like this and as it turns out I don't mind
doing them the set is gonna retail for $200 u.s. 160 British pounds or roughly
180 euros which will vary from country to country within the euro zone all of
those numbers to me sound very extremely reasonable given the part count of over
2500 as expected Lego is continuing on with the 1950s Americana theme that they
started with the diner set and pretty much everything in this new one looks
like it fits right into that era the shape of the building is very different
from anything that they've done up to this point in this line and I like that
fact just by itself without looking at any specifics just yet I like variety
appreciates their willingness to try something so different here I also
personally really respect the color scheme so much of the dark orange
contrasts nicely against the subtle sand blue and there's plenty of sand blue
with all the window and door frames from the second and third floors I like the
little bit of tan just a regular tan that they slide through there
horizontally gives it a nice little little bit of highlight I think and I
like the octan colors for the lower floor they went with that dark green
rather than just a regular green which makes it feel a little bit more classy
the ground floor plan is what is most different from what they've done out to
this point because they have the whole driveway that goes across to
perpendicular streets you know this is obviously a corner unit it's really not
gonna work very well in the middle of a block though there may be some ways to
work that out by giving yourself an extra strip
drive way to connect to the garage over on the right-hand side they fully tiled
off this area might look even a little bit too shiny for what it's supposed to
be but it presents very nicely and I don't see anything of hand that looks
out of place they've got the classic glass lamp style gas pump and that does
use a printed piece there are no stickers in this set whatsoever so
anything that looks like a decoration is a print and that's a new color for the
Vespa style scooter there in medium Azure Lego
definitely cheated to get some of these photos by disassembling quite a bit of
the place and taking off some walls but this lets you see into the vehicle
maintenance Bay the the garage itself which has a vehicle lift in there it's
also looking like a pretty nice tow truck build with an actual working bar
that will raise and lower and they show it on the box that it'll work with the
pink Elvis Cadillac not Cadillac and from the diner set and they've got a
nice build using a Harry Potter wand for the bar on the tire removing and
mounting tool this is another angle on the same area this is the customer
walk-in area and customer service and checkout counter for the car service Bay
overall this is a nice start and one thing that the official pictures don't
show you is the nice rollup garage which actually rolls unlike the traditional
ones that use those same pieces and have sliders that take the garage door panels
up and above to sly horizontally across the top of the inner space this actually
rolls up check out the review that's already been published over at brick set
com2 see how that looks now we're on the left you see the medium blue colored
door that takes you to the stairway that goes up to the next floor and that next
floor is dedicated to an animal clinic or veterinary clinic there's also a
stairway that continues up to the third floor and that takes a little bit of the
space away you can see how heavily they invested into the dark orange for this
with the corner tiles even being created in that color
a handful of pieces that have never been made in this color before plus a lot of
them that have been made before but I just haven't been used very frequently
the interior space is used I think pretty well notice that they did go very
small on the furniture and did use some of the relatively new curved pieces on
the back I think white is a new color for 2019 for those I've seen them in
gray previously and other companies other than Lego have had parts just like
that for many years now but yeah good use of space usable furniture and they
did preserve enough floor space which is really important to be able to actually
get your minifigures in there and pose them here's another picture that was
taken with the set partially disassembled so you can see in there
easily but they do have some nice small builds for the lab and diagnostic
equipment nice lamp back there in the back and yeah just again I think it's a
pretty nice use of space one of the more interesting things that they've done
with the build here and you'll you'll see this if you look in corners where
they have angles that come together there's a little bit of it on the wall
in the back with the the black blackboard I think is what it's supposed
to be you can see just above it in the white area you can also see in the upper
left hand corner of your screen the gray colored 1 by 2 rounded plates piece
they're using that piece and in some cases multiples of that piece stacked on
top of each other to create variable hinges that have a lot of friction in
them so they're using them to help connect things at these angles in ways
that will be relatively rigid and don't have a actual hinge pivot section
sticking out from them I've experimented with that technique already myself in at
least one of my mocks and it's an invaluable technique it's fully legal
and allows you to just have so much more flexibility than you could ever with the
official hinge pieces so I'm glad to see them using that and really reinforcing
that as something that the official Lego folks
like to do also notice so this is the the third floor here looking from the
outside notice that in addition to the quarter around dark orange tiles that
are you know the one by ones down along the base for some decoration they also
have the 1x1 double sloped it's kind of like a cheese slope but in the form of a
double sloped roof in grey the whole bar of a band of grey going across there
lots of those included in this set I'm personally looking forward to those
being available in that color just graze in general are very very useful and the
bay window over on the right hand side there was one on the main level below us
as well but that's made using a recolor of a two by six by two I believe it is
windscreen piece you've got them mounted sideways on the sides with just regular
clear panels down the middle so rather than using the preformed bay window
piece that they already have which I believe would have been much too tall
for this space rather than just coming up with a different color for that they
came up with an actual build it did recolor apart to do it but I think it
looks good this third floor is an apartment and it looks like it has the
major things that you need there's another couch build here that is a
little bit on the small side but it does work they've got a very old-style TV
there as the obligatory rabbit ears coming off the back the shaping of this
doesn't look quite right to me personally I don't know what all it is I
actually kind of feel like the use of the brown printed tile is a little bit
weird here just personal opinion I kind of wish that was done in a different
color to represent the very very curved screens that that were used in those
days and this looks a little bit too flat the kitchen looks nice and has a
little bit of counter space and some nice detailing for the amount of space
that it uses and in the corner is just the smallest of bathrooms they did
not furnish an official photo for that but basically just has a toilet lastly
there is access via the stairs to get all the way up to the roof and if you
look around the edges at the points where the different angles of the sides
come together you can see more of the stacked one by a two rounded plates in
use there not a lot of detail on the top of the roof itself but if you like or a
pedestrian accessible area this could be detailed a little bit more with just
some more stuff for the figures to look at or to interact with but it's
definitely a good start the figures in this set are a little bit of a letdown
to me personally I don't mean to to seem ungrateful or anything but I don't
really see anything new here possibly one of the faces for one of the
mechanics but everything else looks existing to me and you know it's the
creator line especially with the the expert stuff has brought us some really
really nice new torsos in the past and would have been nice to see some of that
or maybe a different color that we haven't seen in a dual moulded set of
legs or something yeah so yeah kind of kind of plain there lego published this
image showing new and/or interesting pieces some of these definitely are not
new but they just wanted to fill up the page a little bit more with things that
folks might be looking for I like the dark green colored door frame regular
sized door frame of course corner tiles are always a good thing black color for
the ice skate piece is gonna be super useful for very small details you can
see the prints here and there are a couple of brand new designs of pieces
never seen before and if you really want to look into those more carefully take a
deeper dive definitely check out the article or by now possibly articles
that's the new elementary website just google new elementary Lego and you'll
find them or just go to new elementary calm and
around and have some fun this is the most dark orange I think that we've seen
in anything from Lego since the townhall set and that one in comparison to this
looks very very plain with just its level of detail this is definitely at
least a generation ahead in its design sophistication and a lot of that comes
from just what parts are available today it's probably boring to hear this but I
definitely do like most of what I see here I will wait to truly pass judgments
until I you know get it in my hands the one thing that I don't like just looking
at it right here from the front is how the garage sticks out over on the right
it almost feels like the garage and that whole lower unit wants to be its own
thing you know wants to be just a single-story unit by itself on a corner
I think that that would would look better integrated into its surroundings
but of course Lego couldn't release something that's small in in this line
so you know they needed to use at least one base plate and I think the way
things are fit together does work I know that some garages have been integrated
into the lower floor or as the lower floor of buildings like this in
buildings of this era just that little step out portion looks awkward to me
especially with the overhang the awning for the center island where you get gas
being curved around the edges and then that part over there is squared off
otherwise though I feel like there's some really nice kind sensibility that
went into the design of this with colors with shapes with thoughts about adult
fans and teen fans more sophisticated builders you know actual customers what
they all like to see and you know some techniques were introduced some pieces
were introduced that's all useful even if you don't like
the finished product here you want to modify it or you just want to take
inspiration from it and take its pieces and make your own stuff there's a lot
good here for a lot of different people I think
definitely don't expect them to do another corner unit for awhile I think
that they're gonna need to make at least two more regular side of the street
buildings to go in the 1950s line before considering going in a different
direction again so far so good so that's it for my look at this one for
now as always I will definitely buy the thing once it becomes available to
purchase I will build it and it will review it and at that time some of my
thoughts may change once I actually have this thing in front of me and in my
hands for now thank you for watching I'll talk to you in soon
you
