LEGO Police Station

[@monorailmanfred]

Hey Alex, you might want to put the set number in the title as well so more people can find your awesome review! Love it, keep up the great work!

[@alexnunes]

Thank you, that's a great suggestion. I have added it. Hope it helps.

I like the “Soap n Suds” reference, but I modified my Brick Bank and made the laundry into a LEGO store. I thought it more appropriate considering prices of LEGO sets. 😂 I love all of the unique build details in this set, but that’s Chris McVeigh for you (I’m pretty sure that he’s responsible for the Bonsai Tree also). This may not be the most interesting Modular build but the details really help make up for it. Oh, and I still have my old rotary phone that I grew up with. I collect old tech.

[@trainsandtrams2020]

I agree with you, I wish they would have included a 1940s retro police car with this set. Having said that, I hope they consider the idea of issuing something like that as a separate small set sometime later.

[@dd_zzero6827]

The crack in the escape wall and the hold in the ground to steal donuts is very funny. Great review Alex.

[@anthonyhull8024]

I really like this set now that you have reviewed it! You might have been a little tough on it when it comes to scoring though.

[@alexnunes]

I think the scores will make more sense when the I get to the others.

[@anthonyhull8024]

Ya, it is definitely not the best modular but it definitely out ranks market street! Lol

[@keoughjm2]

Picked mine up this morning, can’t wait to get started.

Just finish building it myself. Really nice set to build. My Son (Alexander) had saw your video last week and although we speak Dutch in the Netherlands, he could tell me everything you have told in this review. (He is only 8 years old). So beside getting the Lego virus, he is also learning English from your videos. Keep up your videos.

[@wikbriks5753]

the alex score is bang on. thnks for the review.

[@Iankenobi1138]

I actually love it! So far, my Lego city (which you and a German collector both inspired) consists of the Corner Garage next to the Downtown Diner, then the Police Station and Book shop. I’m saving up to buy both the Brick Bank and Detective’s Office on the secondary market ;-) mine is really just a Lego street but this build makes it look so Americana 1950s - that’s what I love

[@cmj0423]

Love the Mountain Dew and having it move during construction. Looks like it was needed to keep up the speed.

[@JimRPG]

Wow you're fast with this! Looks great and great video as always!

Awesome speed build and review Alex it will look great in your Lego city it’s really amazing what kind of modular buildings that they have ever designed for they’re fans!

The only think I hate are the black page instructions. It is hard to see dark browns or blues on those pages.

[@festus6383]

The police station looks great in your city. Looks like a lot of fun to put together. I happen to be in line in front of you and your son at the Lego Store yesterday.

Oh, awesome! That was a pretty crazy line. Luckily it moved pretty quick.

[@matthewmanning1033]

Great job Alex!! Love the new set and where you found to place it in your city. Thanks for sharing!

[@subraxas]

A bit strange thing is that on Lego.com's online shop the set is still listed in the Creator Expert section. At least here, in the UK, it is like so.

[@JohnPepp]

I believe Alex lives in the Western United States, so maybe he has some privy info that we don't have?

[@josephd27]

I think the police station looks great. When I first heard about it I wasn't really into it as Lego city has a ton of police station sets out there. But then I saw a few leaked photos and I love the old style building way more than the plain blue and white stations. I will be getting this one but not right away. I still need the corner garage and book store first. I just picked up my first ever modular yesterday Assembly Square

[@dalynhilton4558]

Sweet to meet you and buy this along with you 😁 until I get the diner next week this will have to be my building all the way on the right in my city. I don’t want the sign covered.

[@alexnunes]

Absolutely. That was a crazy line.

[@dacollector4452]

I ordered mine 1st thing in the morning of release. Today, I saw it is now on backorder. Hopefully mine is shipping. Early predictions on next year’s modular? Would like to see a hospital or school.

[@TheFabMan]

8:08 I see what you did there 😏

[@RamezBoudargham]

Good review. I ordered mine online on Jan 1st so waiting for it. Should have picked it up from the store as I did end up driving to the lego store to pick a couple other items....

I like the new modular, but I'm in no rush to buy it. I only have Assembly Square and the Downtown Diner. Assemble Square is built, but the diner is still in the unopened box. I don't have any room at the moment to put it anywhere. Really like your city and videos. Happy New Year to you and your family.

[@urshurakdieohnekanal9291]

The model looks very nice, but the ground plan really is cramped. There's barely room to stage the mini figures. And two bathrooms? Does the one lonely bowl in the prison cell actually count as a "bathroom"? The highlights of this set are the rotary phones, the typewriter and the idea for the staircase. Very useful for MOCs. The rest is ... nice, but I absolutely despise those black building instructions.

[@brickartisan]

Alex gives the new set 29/50... all modular designers (especially the 2022 set) feel pressured to do better. lol. It’s a wonderful set. Maybe you can find a way to place it beside Assembly Square. The chicken roof ornament in assembly would fit the egg roof ornament of the donut shop. It might have been placed on purpose as an easter egg/reference to an older set.

[@alexnunes]

Good idea on the placement. I'll see what I can do.

[@lucifernebulae]

Many people complain about this set, but I really really enjoy it.

[@michaelfinny7538]

First of all, happy new year Alex. Great video as always and I’ll definitely be picking this up. As I think I have commented before, I’d been hoping for a modular police station for a coup,e of years. Just a matter of where to put it. Now......when is the modular hospital going to come,tee the modular first responders trifecta? 😀

[@5inistermm_109]

this honestly reminds me more of a *precinct* rather than a station right???

[@afolchamp]

That’s a good distinction that I would not have thought of

[@alfredcharcoalman848]

I think you should try and nudge the Police Station between two other Modulars because of how the building is with the two small and thiner buildings on either side, that would just make it look the best In my opinion.

[@coasterchaos1866]

I’m a little worried this is going to be the last modular. The only reason I think that is because it didn’t come with an pins to connect it to other buildings which I thought was sorta odd. Could be just a mistake on Legos part, who knows.

[@brickfalcon4919]

Great Video Alex. I wish the Modular wouldn't have side buildings and a larger police station instead because the gap due to the side buildings doesn't look appealing to me when you placed it next to the green grocer.

[@felixschaller6948]

Why are the Walls of the Police-Station not finished ? 8:01

[@Mardigrasman23]

I like it. I think you lo balled the value.

[@alexnunes]

I think once I start to share the scores of the other modulars it will make more sense.

[@arcturionblade1077]

Definitely going to stick the Bat-Signal along with Bats himself and Commissioner Gordon on the roof of the police station.

[@carlkneller6480]

Looks amazing 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@dutchah91]

I want to get this but the fact that the apartment above the donut shop is only accessible through the fire escape bothers me so much that it makes me flip-flop. It's just such a weird design decision.

[@willpyle]

I know it's a long shot but does the typewriter mean the typewriter ideas set will be out soon or about this time next year lol

[@cheesehund7056]

Looks great!

[@Brick-Life]

i dont like the dips in the walls. they are not good as minifigs can climb over to the net business or apartments, rooms. for some cases it makes sense but if i got it i would fill it in like how i had to for Brick Bank and the laundromat

[@markgarrick2585]

They could've made it a corner building with maybe a parking or courtyard area with maybe a bike or car to accompany it and maybe not had the businesses either side

[@colorfulsloth6448]

I would have liked it better if the full space was fully dedicated to the police station.

[@lfkpics3884]

Hey guys quick question. Does anyone know if and how to get all the pieces in your Lego Digital Designer moc onto a BrickLink order to get all the pieces

[@alcarbo8613]

Cool, although I think the Police Captain should have been a Black Guy with a Big Mustache as a call back to the Cop Movies and TV shows from the 70’s and 80’s where that was pretty much always the captain

[@alexnunes]

Good call!

Did you know my police station (europe) includes a different clock print? (updated design)

[@RenzAdrianVillanueva]

Town Hall vs Police Station Witch is better?

[@stinhuffine4422]

I think in terms of playability Police station wins Also it has 3 houses, 2 residential ones with regular flats. So Minifigure families could live there

[@Brick-Life]

the set does not feel like a lego modular but more like a rebrickable MOC. not good that there is no stairs for the apartment and if i got it i would need to add modern computers. Also needs more police branding

[@ronik24]

Hmmmmm... I got a Modbrix newsstand which does look quite similar, also dark green... it is just about twice as large, much better equipped and has a more interesting roof construction with hinges facilitating a slightly sloped roof. Maybe some Lego designer saw that... Innovation certainly does not just go into one direction nowadays, Lego is already copying ideas from the competition quite a lot. By the way: Doug Score ;-)

[@JopieHaargel]

This must be the most uneventful modular in quite some time. The prison cot lifts up, oh wow, a suggestion of a tunnel! But wait, there's also a regular bed that lifts up! How do they come up with these things?! All the interiors are just SO lacklustre and the main selling point is a staircase that is a castle wall on its side. Very underwhelming.

[@Crafty_Lachy]

Tbh I hate this set I was hopeful for something else instead of another police station

[@maniacmedic1985uk]

Looks a very nice set with some cool features. I think that the designer has come up with a unique design putting the main build in the middle. Makes it stand out from other modulars. It’s a bit of a shame there’s no retro police car with it. I agree with you Alex that the doughnut shop could do with a bit more space. Overall I think the score is fair.

[@penguinbigboy]

Police office on the right is Chase McCain

[@cibarra294]

The new box design looks sick!

[@MayoHosko]

I think the police station modular is the best but my favourite will always be the 1987 version. I like the Alex score but you should create a criteria for your categories so you can develop an algorithm for the total score. It’s better than arbitrary rating imo

[@lucaskennington9101]

Given that this is a 40s station, I think the younger officer is Chase McCain's grandfather. Also, if the story is that the news guy is down on his luck financially, that could explain the lacklustre apartment.

Very good point!

Yeah sorry Alex, love the scoring, but that rating seems a bit off. The value for this set seems to be very good, with one of the lowest ppp out of all of the modulars. Playability a 5... they give you more than 3 play features. I guess 29/50 just sounds low, 4 marks off a "middle of the road". Really looking forward to you scoring the others! :)
