I am glad you’re showing these sets that are building blocks from another company. That way it shows people that the sets are very nice so thank you very much. It is a nice set. Great job.

[@SheClicksBricks]

Thank you. Appreciate the support. Some of these sets are just too good not to share.

[@SecondBrickToTheLeft]

I love all the little details in this set - it's really pretty!

[@SheClicksBricks]

Me too. Pantasy really showed what is possible at a reasonable price. I am looking forward to future Pantasy builds. Thanks for sharing 🥰

[@raddadchris]

Wow, definitely impressed with this set. Quality looks great for that price.

[@SheClicksBricks]

Quality is great. Pantasy has done nothing but impress us so far. They also have some very unique sets 😊. Thank you for the support 🥰

[@nsbd90now]

I'm doing this right now and it is fantastic right from the start with terrific instructions and wonderful brick specs, colors, and fun details.

[@SheClicksBricks]

I was so happy with this build, so amazing. I am also happy you are enjoying it. I want to do more Pantasy sets soon.😊. Thanks for sharing 🥰

[@karenpiotrowski6154]

I just found your channel and love it especially yor reviews. I just bought the Sherlock Holmes pantasy set. Can't wait to get it and get started since I am a Sherlock fan. Keep up the good work. I will certainly check back frequently. 😊

[@SheClicksBricks]

Being a fan of Sherlock certainly improved the whole building experience 😊. You will love it. Thank you so much for the kind words and for the support Karen 🥰❤

I just finished box 1 last night after getting the PDF via email delivery. Dark brown is the hardest to see in the printed instructions for me even with Lego. No missing pieces so far! There are some flimsy build steps where elements are only supported by 1 stud but everything seems to firm up in the end. Like you said no Minifigures but there are some built in display areas for them like behind the counter. The clutch power is perfect and the translucent elements are not cloudy like most other brands. There is a 15% off promo code for all Pantasy sets on Amazon so I ended up paying $85 US for this so definitely worth it. Once done this set I am building the Pantasy Forest Cabin next.

[@SheClicksBricks]

I am so glad you got the digital instructions. I will have to check out the cabin. The bakery has definitely made me a fan of Pantasy 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing your experience and for your support.

@@SheClicksBricks have you tried Mould King sets? I have read good things about them. If so do you have any videos you can link.

[@SheClicksBricks]

@@pseudoty Funny you ask, I actually have my very first Mould King Set on they way. It should be here this week. The Gobricks have me very excited to to build and share it.😊

@@SheClicksBricks I’m excited for you can’t wait to see! Enjoy the build.

[@kagirokasuri6119]

I really like to see Lego alternative especially since some of their sets are so cost prohibitive! I think I'll definitely pick this one up!

[@SheClicksBricks]

I have zero regrets on this set. This set made me a huge Pantasy Fan and a true believer in alternative bricks. I see more Pantasy sets in the future, I've heard great things about the Steampunk Railway Station. Thank you for sharing.🥰

[@pacerdawn5512]

The Pantasy set looks really good overall. I love all of the detail inside and all of the printed bricks. The gym is probably contains my favorite builds. And I don't mind the lack of minifigs, I prefer to supply my own anyway. However, it does appear there are more noticeable gaps between adjacent bricks than there would be in a normal Lego set. When you displayed close ups of the outside walls, especially the tan ones, all I could see were these prominent black lines outlining the bricks (example, 6:48). I just checked my Lego sets and I don't see that nearly as much. And, while the baseplate is much thicker than a normal Lego baseplate (which I really like), it still appears to be bending upwards at the corner (11:10). It's still not quite there for me yet, but definitely getting REALLY close. Great to see that Lego is finally getting quality competition these days!

[@SheClicksBricks]

Thank you for sharing those observations🥰. Competition is good for Lego. Pantasy isn't the only brand coming after Lego. CaDA, just to name one, also produces strong sets. Thanks for your support.😊

[@idomoshe6040]

Regarding the flimsy lightpost/traffic light - try pushing the rods all the way down into the hollow stud below (the 2x2 jumper plate with the hollow stud in the middle). It should become much more stable then.

[@SheClicksBricks]

Well look at that. I just tried that and it is much better. Thank you for that tip. Thank you for the support ❤

[@Marc76-qt7vp]

The Bakery is a worthy addition if you ask me.

[@SheClicksBricks]

I agree. Thank younfor the support.

[@Zabadak]

Wonderfull build. Nice coloursheme ans very nice details. Only that waterfontain right in front of the main entrance....🤔 When the minifigures go outside it can end in a cold shower

[@Zabadak]

@@SheClicksBricks Yeah😊 I have build about 5 own designed modulars. There are video's on my channel if you're interested ☺️ But it's always nice to be inspired by others

[@SheClicksBricks]

@@Zabadak I was just checking out your channel. Wow, you are very talented. I love the Wine Shop🥰

[@Zabadak]

@@SheClicksBricks WOW Thank you. ☺️ very nice to read such a comment

[@MrTomemac]

Very nice set. In Japan we get no piece count either with regular LEGO sets. Also the very bottom LEGO base plate is vac injected which is traditional for their Modular’s but cuts the thickness of the plate by half. Pantasy there opted for an actual regular thickness plate. Many folk correct the height difference on those LEGO plates by sliding large tiles beneath them. Excellent review, sad it comes with no figures but that’s probably for the best as I think folk have a strong comparative bias towards LEGO figures. Which is a shame a lot if the off brand figs look very nice specially if you see them as their own thing and not comparing them to LEGO.

[@SheClicksBricks]

I am surprised about the piece count and was not aware of the base plate process. So much good information in your comment.🥰Thank you very much and Thank you for your support ❤️

[@SO-ym3zs]

I have minor quibbles about the set, but overall it's excellent--and priced vastly better than Lego for the same quality. The Pantasy stream punk train station is one of the best sets I've built period, any brand. Cobi, Pantasy, Cada, BlueBrixx, et al. are making Lego, with their outrageous prices and mostly predictable designs, look bad. So many great non-Lego options out there now, often priced way better.

[@SheClicksBricks]

Very well said. Thank you. I'll be checking out the steam punk station. Thanks for the recommendation. Have you seen the new Pantasy Sherlock Holmes? It looks great and it has minifigs. Thanks for sharing🥰 www.barweer.com/products/pantasy-85014-sherlock-holmes-street-view-building-modular-buildings?VariantsId=35075

[@bryankmarshall7835]

It makes you wonder about Lego greed. How does this company give you quality products equal to or better than Lego at half the price?! I love Lego Modulars, but I will be picking up this set and I am currently building the Sherlock Holmes set.

[@SheClicksBricks]

Sherlock was amazing, I hope you are enjoying it. I started looking for alternatives simply due to the price of Lego and wow, I am so glad I did. Both Pantasy and Funwhole have been game changers. The quality is awesome. Pantasy has such unique sets, with licensing, and FunWhole has some amazing sets, all with lights integrated into the builds. So happy to find these options. Thank you so much for the support 🥰

[@LutraLovegood]

Very nice looking set, some clever detailing like the window pieces used for the sidewalk decorations, and unlike Lego sets the interiors aren't absolutely cramped. You could play with a set like that even though architecture sets are usually adult oriented. Though I would have preferred the bakery to take two floors to have a bigger baking area, maybe a delivery area, and other details. I've also never seen a bakery where everything isn't behind the counter. While the fountain in front is nice it's a bit big for a sidewalk this size and imo kinda detracts from the point of the set, I think it would have been better on the side of the set, with a small park for peeps to relax in (though that could be a set on its own) while they eat some fresh baked croissants and other viennoiseries au chocolat.

[@SheClicksBricks]

Are you a writer? I love your vision. I can picture it in my head. I may need to find time to try a few of those things out. Thank you for sharing. 🥰

[@RobinHullBuilds]

Hey hey! What a fabulous set. And for the price, that’s insane! I think if Pantasy et al can do it for these prices, why can’t the Danes? The amount of detail is incredible, not to mention the packing and the manual. I used to work in print and design for the U.K. Government. One of my biggest gripes was designers producing graphics or text on a dark background. Pantasy are not alone in doing this with their instructions. I have reason to complain to LEGO on numerous occasions when they’ve done the same. Like you, I use a PDF on my tablet to build. It allows you to zoom in, especially on dark elements. I’m just finishing an AliExpress version of the Ghostbusters firehouse. So many printed elements and the same sticker sheet as the original had, and the same quality. The Minifigures are ok, but not perfect! Loved watching your build and review of this super set 👍

[@SheClicksBricks]

This set is top notch for sure. I love using the digital instructions. The zoom is crucial for my old eyes. I really hope the Firehouse is on the way for me. Thank you for the support🥰🥰.

Here in Europe even Lego doesn't state the pcs number on their boxes :)

[@RobinHullBuilds]

It’s only a requirement in North America and specifically the USA. I believe it’s a Federal Trade Commission rule?

Wow, I just learned this from a viewer a few minutes ago. That is so interesting. I wonder why that is? Thank you. And thank you for the support.

@@SheClicksBricks I guess you have the special rule for this. An I wish the EU had it, too. It's so dumb to search this simple info online every time :/

[@hongpingmike]

no piece count on the box is very normal. Even lego does not include piece count in China and Europe etc. You only see the piece count in Canada and usa really

[@SheClicksBricks]

That's interesting. I had no isead. Thanks for sharing and commenting!

[@RobinHullBuilds]

@@SheClicksBricksit’s a legal requirement of the USA Federal Trade Commission to show piece count. As the same sets are sold in Canada….

[@tamerkabes1551]

The pc count is also mentioned on the box in Germany and UK too and I assume more countries in Europe

[@Moshugaani]

Has Lego run out of some patents or what? A whole lot of those pieces are like exact replicas of Lego pieces.

[@SheClicksBricks]

Yes, 14 years ago For trademark "Lego's bricks can't be legally protected by trademark law because their two rows of interlocking studs are a functional, technical shape that cannot become the property of any one company." Source: bricks.stackexchange.com/questions/17115/which-bricks-are-still-protected-by-copyright-trademark-patent-law and well before that for patent "Lego's patent for its interlocking brick design expired in the 1978." I would encourage you to try one of the many of the less expensive and equal or better quality selections that can be found in the Alternative brick World. Thanks for sharing 🥰
