      I totally agree!! Seeing a set by itself makes the proportions hard to visualize. Seeing it with other similar structures makes a purchasing decision easier. This is an easy one. Definitely going to buy this one!!

      You can always have two botanical gardens in your city.... I'm kidding I know what you mean, I'm on the same boat as you - someone else mentioned using this set to create a greenhouse for their Hogwarts and I think is a great alternative

    It is an amazing set, but way too expensive. I would love if they did the fan designer sets as they were submitted. They could cut the costs for the redesigning and for creating new parts that way and sell it for less. I get that Lego wants to make sure everything meets their standards and all, but still. Lego does not always have the best solutions for everything, I feel. What some MOC builders come up with is often way better in my opinion. Lego seems to try to cut costs by having a lesser amount of pieces, but way too many sets still end up being crazy expensive. I love Lego, and I get that costs in general have gone up, wages have to be paid etc., but I´m disappointed by the prices nowadays and feel a bit betrayed sometimes.

    It's certainly a beautiful set and while it isn't suitable for a Modular style Lego city, there are some Lego city or town layouts it can be great in. The style and overall aesthetic is reminiscent of the crystal palaces of the 18th and 19th century that showcased some of the most exotic flora from all corners of the French and British empires, especially from the tropical regions of the empires.

  • @allenslegoworld

    That feels more like a 18+ Friends set with the colors being similar to the botanical garden in the Friends line.

  • @cumbriandoddy
    @cumbriandoddy Годину тому

    Great set, definitely considering as a day one - I think it would be great to double up the base plates with 32x32 or 16x32 in front and add some outdoor gardens / park to it, this would also mean you could modularise it with a street footpath. I’d also consider doing similar with gardens set between it and the Museum modular in a European style tourist/public amenities area.

  • @RCmies
    @RCmies 10 годин тому +2

    I feel a bit conflicted about this set because I went and bought the friends botanical garden last year I think. And this is basically the same but sized up a lot. It's beautiful and realistic. But the size is the problem if I were to fit this in my Lego city. I think I'd be better off getting another one of the friends sets and build my own smaller version.

    Love this!
    I use MILS Plate for my LEGO models. I think I’m going to add a couple 16X32 plates on the back and create a 48 X 64 base. (I’ll make sure the MILS plates are solidly connected with some long bricks)
    That way, I get a sidewalk on the front and a little extra green space on the back.
    If I had the room, I would place this in a park with green space all around! I would elevate the model to have contoured green space and perhaps a creek!

All those beautiful plants. What a dilemma I have now.

    Its so beautiful but I feel like its a few PAB boxes (mostly small plant elements and 1x1s or other small plate and brick)
    It's far to expensive, should have had less minifigures abd made it more accessible to more customers.
    It would be interesting to see someone pack this into PAB boxes to see how many it fits into.
