I don't remember seeing this on awd before

I haven't been overly enthused about any lego ideas sets for a while but if they approve Voltron, oooh baby
Vintage Tram and Iron Giant or bust!
(And how can you not be excited by Saturn V. It's GLORIOUS)

Yes! But be wary of imitations...
I am shocked and appalled! A reverse image search found this in case anyone else was interested:
Haven't found a source yet though unfortunately.

Fantastic, thanks; loving this guys style.
Still waiting to hear about Double VIP for Europe too... Palace Cinema and Brink Bank are gathering dust in my basket now!
I'll get the Saturn V, but it doesn't excite me like Voltron would

I don't like Ninjago, but this set is giving me a cyberpunk mood, like a crazy HK!
Edited: Holy shit, it is amazing! Looking at other pictures.
But the price...

I'm not a Ninjago fan, but that looks like an awesome build. Damn you LEGO!
Oh wow, it fits in with the modulars. And it has a comic store. What a weird set for a kids movie but I'm not going to complain.

$350?
$299 is a steal for that D:
$299 is a steal for that D:
$299.99 USD (this is not confirmed yet)
Also, this is the third largest set produced by LEGO, with only the UCS Falcon and Taj Mahal with more pieces.

Guessing game time?
US$ 399.
Edit: Beated again. Ghostmind, for $299 it is a steal.

Anyone want to make a thread? I think it's worthy of it.
It's usually worth it just to see people freak out about Lego prices. Even if it's actually a great price per piece ratio like this is.

Wait for it. You're in charge.
This set will be a scalper's dream, give it a few years and it'll easily be worth a grand.

Sticker sheet's gonna be as big as the instruction book is.
But yeah, want-don't-want this! I wish LEGO would calm down, they must be making so much money right now but Assembly Square, Saturn V, Grand Carousel, now this, and a potential gigantic Falcon... So many sets with 2, 3, 4 and more-thousand pieces is just way too much for most people in such a short space of time.
Certain sets are just gonna have to give and I wonder if this'll be one of them - I think it will for me, as amazing as it looks, unless I can find it at a pretty deep discount. Old Fishing Store's gonna suffer too I reckon with this constant stream of huge sets.

Man, can Lego give me a break? I just started this madness last year, I still have a lot of modulars and expert sets to buy, want the Fishing Shop, still need the carrousel. And now this? How can I eat, Lego, give me a breath to survive.
At least, I am not into Star Wars, so I can skeep the Falcon.
A display with this and some of the LNM sets would be amazing. Just put the green dragon over there.

Lego pieces doesn't break
typically
I believe that's pretty standard as some Lego boats (typically ones with solid hulls) can float, so that warning is present on anything else.

So many cool techniques to see.
Using two of the newer semicircle windows to make an actual circular window on the first floor.
Using the tooth piece for the part of the M in comics. But looks like using printed pieces (Minecraft eyes?) to pull off the I and S in the sign.
All those car door pieces to do the roof.
I recognize half the parts on the main support pillar on the front (the dark grey pointed slope thingie.) but not the other half (the light grey it connects against.)
Ok, since LEGO is taking its sweet time with the press release, I'm going to go ahead with a thread in the OT.
FYI, multiple sources now saying $299.99 and September 1st availability.

Love the cherry blossom growing out of a window, and the black and white window frames in offset pattern with trans green outline. There's so much crazy detail. it's such a weird mix of stuff but it all works. I may need it.
Man, this and Fishing Store on the same day? Crazy.
Jeez, that's going to be an expensive month for many! I reckon I'll stagger them across a couple of months and hope neither sells out.
I'm probably going for the Fishing Store first, and wait for a double VIP on the City. Both will mean my wife will kill me. It also means I'll be able to save up a bit for the City.
(Oh, and if it wasn't bad enough allready, september also has Force Friday and BB-8 :/)
That sounds like a sensible shout, assuming Europe gets Double VIP too. Thankfully I've never seen Star Wars, so can avoid sinking money into that facet of Lego!

Hnnnnnnnnng. That was the sound of my wallet's final death. Between this and the ship, Ninjago is killing me.
Yeah, also reconsidering the Old Fishing Store now.

On Lego's facebook they said it doesn't have the technic pins to connect it to modulars. I don't see any in the pics. But ya, it would fit next to one and you could add one; would need to be a corner building of course.
I think it demands a Blade Runner/Neotokyo type cityscape MOC though, instead of just placing it next to existing modulars
