LEGO Bookshop 10270

This is a great set that will take you back to the old high street! Beautiful

This is an iconic lego set which is hard to find. It was shipped in bubble packaging and arrived in very good condition.

Bookshop has gotten slept on by lego fans because it’s not as big as other modulars, and subject matter is maybe not as clearly identifiable. But it serves a very practical purpose by existing, it gives your figures more places to live, and gives you half baseplates to give your layout more modularity. It’s also a really good build, even by the 2024 standards we’ve grown accustomed to. There were only one or two small moments during the build where I could tell I was doing an older set. However, there is something intangible that I think elevates this to be a better modular than some of them that are for sale now. It’s the “feel” or I guess the “vibes” this set gives. They are rooted in a design and marketing language of a lego brand that has all but passed away. This sets comes right at the tail end of an age where lego seemed to use more bold and vibrant colors, and took a more casual, almost childlike wonder approach to the adult oriented sets. You know what I mean, sets like the classic creator expert f40 and original vw camper van, the original roller coaster, Assembly square… These are sets that dont scream “Im a serious display model”, instead they kind of just make you feel good, and maybe whisper “it’s ok to display me if it makes you happy”, so you do, and you are. This is a set you buy if you want to remember what putting legos together as a kid was like. And not remember the physical experience of stacking bricks, but remember how that physical experience made you feel. I’ve found that nostalgic buzz weirdly elusive in a lot of modern Lego sets, but I found it here. Is it the best modular? Of course not. Is it the scale maybe a little off? Perhaps. Does it still fit perfectly into the modular lineup? Does it remind you of a bygone era of lego set design? Does it remind you of all the good parts of your childhood, and none of the bad? Yes, yes and yes. Buy this set before it’s so expensive you are kicking yourself for missing out.
