    How are you finding the set? I was going to get this one as a present for mum, but got her the Parisian restaurant instead. It's so detailed front and rear and internally. Lots going on with it.

    Creator street here is now the emporium, Parisian, movie theatre and town hall.

    Honestly it was good build, few oh cool moments, but I much prefer the restaurant, and yeah there's xetail in every room and even a basement. The guy painting the wall is a bit meh, but still cool how they did some things like bay window (though gappy), and the toilet.

    Only have the restaurant and pet shop at the moment, i'd have to make room to put more, and if i did it'd be bricklinking cafe corner (with custom colour walls for bottom floor and awning) and an actual interior (inspired by cafe/bike shop) and the green grocer. But then I'd want the detectives office or something and something else for the corner on the other end so ... $$$ sigh, just not a fan of the cinema or emporium due to lack of detail in the latter, and well, 6 seat cinema...

    After binge watching all of Star Wars Rebels, I now have the Ghost, Ezras speeder bike and some clone transporters waiting to be built. Also ordered 2elsas ice palaces to be put away for a few years until their new owners are old enough to build them.

    Finally got 70817 'Batman and Super Angry Kitty Attack' late last week. It was a nice quick build. The Batman minifig is very cool.

    Speed Champions and Marvel are a March release. Anyone spotted them in-store in Australia yet?

    The Cafe Corner and Market Street were the only ones that were completely empty on the inside.
