Voici l’annonce officielle du nouveau set LEGO Creator Expert Assembly Square (référence LEGO 10255), dernier né de la prestigieuse gamme Modular qui fêtera ses 10 ans en 2017.
Sortie prévue début janvier 2017 en LEGO Store et sur le Shop@Home, au prix de 239,99€ en Allemagne 259,99€ en France pour 4002 pièces et 8 minifigs (plus un bébé). Pas de sortie anticipée pour les clients LEGO VIP.
Au programme au rez-de-chaussée : une boulangerie, un fleuriste et un café. Au premier étage : un magasin de musique, un studio photo et un dentiste. Et en haut, un studio de danse et un appartement avec accès au toit terrasse. Et une surface au sol 50% plus grande que les précédents Modulars, d’où la hausse de prix.
Jamie Berard, le designer du set, a annoncé l’avoir rempli de références aux précédents bâtiments Modular (les fameux “easter eggs”) pour fêter les 10 ans de la gamme (retrouvez-en la liste complète en bas de l’article) !
Pas moins de 11 bâtiments sont en effet déjà sortis (10 pour ceux qui considèrent le Market Street comme un hors série, puisqu’il est adapté d’un design de fan) : 10182 Café Corner, 10190 Market Street, 10185 Green Grocer, 10197 Fire Brigade, 10211 Grand Emporium, 10218 Pet Shop, 10224 Town Hall, 10232 Palace Cinema, 10243 Parisian Restaurant, 10246 Detective’s Office et 10251 Brick Bank. Le Pet Shop fait preuve d’une longévité extraordinaire en étant encore au catalogue, je ne serais pas étonné qu’il disparaisse (avec le Palace Cinema) d’ici l’arrivée de ce nouveau Modular.
