You continue to inspire my own small City and your design and build influence is affecting it in ways that make me as happy as when I see there's a new Robin Hood Bricks video. Thanks Robin
The spot to the left of the castle would be a great place for a park with large, brick-built trees. There's usually a park like that near a castle, helps decorate the area.
Yes, I'd love to be good at brick built trees. I had thought that would be built up though as I have a green area in front of Major Oak Hill and a full park near the Town Hall. I'm also considering more fountains!
Your videos are so soothing and inspiring. I'm from Florida and working on an old Florida town, making realistic mocs from sets like the shrimp shack. When I get tired and frustrated, watching you do things like this for a bit cheers me right back up!
Haha, I get hot and frustrated too. I'm glad I'm a calming influence. Of course you only see the last 25% of the process when all the wrinkles have already been ironed out!
Another great build. Think that shop row area of your city is my favourite. Agree with others, the overhanging tiles really help emphasise the cut away. There must be some strange wind blowing in Brick Nottingham though! Another video idea: one where you move around showing all the little tweaks and added details to existing builds either from yourself or viewer suggestions.
I agree. That area, with a row of buildings behind and the subway underneath, does look good. Hopefully the whole city will look that good soon. It's a good advert for using different layers. I was also thinking of a mix video of lots of little bits but wasn't sure if it'd work. Maybe!
Ahhh. Good call. There always new ways to discover. I think my way worked pretty well though without pushing them out too far from the wall. Thanks for commenting!
@@RobinHoodBricks Yes it worked really well indeed. The way you did it was something I actually overlooked when looking for a way to mount those skates.
Excellent amendments as usual. The overhanging kerb works very well to hide the baseplate groove 👍 Much better with a couple more studs' depth to the shop. At first I thought the Yeti looked ridiculous but having been reminded of the mahoooosive donut at the other end of the run, I think they both provide excellent "bookends" for the row 😃
Fantastic use of the crazy jetty!!! Verry funny! Smart to buy Just the ski shop! I was a bit disepointed as well (especialy the price) of the set but I like some parts and some People.
Just a joy to watch. Thoughtful consideration, experimentation, innovation, creative flourish, humor, and ever more productive development -- a complete transformation from beginning to end -- all wrapped in loads of fun and enthusiasm! So genuinely you! If ever I'm asked which RHB video to watch to get a real feel for your brand, I'll send them to this one. Anxiously awaiting Modular Mondays! YES!
Wow. You'll give me a big head. Thanks for your high praise. I'm also looking forward to the Modular. It has been in development for too long to not be built already!
Great use of that shop, Robin. I had no desire at all to acquire that set myself as I see no use for it. Now you've given me something to think about regarding my city with how you've made a great use of it in the shop line!
Yes, it worked out well. Better than I thought at first. Sometimes things just come together well. The yeti was not at all planned and just fit so well!
I think two of the large rock pieces would look good on either side of the yeti, perhaps topped with more snow as well! Also the flags are going the opposite direction of the flags on the donut shop
Flags are easily fixed and I like the way subscribers notice the little things I also care about. Rock pieces? Awesome idea. Love it. This will get tried and, I'm guessing, will be successful. Brilliant, sir!
👍 It might look even better with the winter-sports shop next to the bike-shop and the row of identical buildings (pet-shop, lego-shop and TV-shop) next to each other on the other side of the river trend, in stead of separating the identical buildings by the river...? Just a thought...
I did that to break it up, otherwise it might look a bit samey. Also the escaping snake is more visible as it is. Also the monorail tram system might clash with a taller building. Thanks for the suggestion though. It's good to challenge stuff!
Sorry but I'm not doing houses that aren't tower facades as I want to create a large city centre with as many exciting, busy areas as possible. Thanks for your comment!
Nice video and build. I turned the toy store in the donut shop set into jurassic toys placing the dino from the jurassic park set on top of the toy store after I expanded it by an 8 by 16 to make it a whole 16 by 16 in total size. Still working on it. Just need some final tiles.
@@RobinHoodBricks It was a popular webgame I played all the time as a kid. The Sports Shop was a front for the PSA (Penguin Secret Agency), which later became the EPF (Elite Penguin Force).
Hi Robin! Great job once again. I really like the overhanging of the tiles, it really sort of rounds it out, so well done! I actually like the winter sport shop as a set iself for a lot of the individual pieces. But then whenI thought about placing it in any city other than a mountain sight, I couldn't think of how to use is. But your use of it is really well done. And yes, finally an Octan truck! I so much like that color scheme! It reminds me of one of the earlier sets I got as a kid, the original Octan truck, 6594, so I liked this truck from the get go on. Are you planning a gasstation?
I do have a Gas Station planned. It is an Octan version of a really old one and will be across a road plate. I know some people won't like it as it'll be part of the road system, as opposed to being off to the side, but I just want to fit as much in as possible!
@Robin Hood Bricks when are you planning it to be on? I’m not sure why people won’t like it, as far as I can see most seem to like your ideas and thoughts. So speaking for myself, I can’t wait for it!
@@kevinkoster4543 Well just because it'll be across a road, meaning normal traffic would drive through it. Not ideal but otherwise I've no room for it. It is bought, in bits, but waaaaaay off in the city's development anyway!
I have to confess I just laughed out loud like a jerk when you put the Yeti on top of the store! ^^ Didn't know this minfig even exists. Great work as usual Robin! I just wonder why there are two visible grey studs remaining inside the building, near the windows and side walls. May be covered with 1x1 tiles?
The studs are from the original build but easily covered. Good point. Yeah, that yeti is hilarious. He was in the last brick haul so you can learn all about him. Love it!
@@RobinHoodBricks I wonder if we are going to start learning about every "Robin Hood" business out there now, and who's really behind the curtain 🤔🤔 Attorneys Robin & Hood, Tax broker Ms Robin Hood, insurance company Robin Hood, the book "Robbin' in tha Hood & how to get away wit it", ok ok I'm sure you get it haha, I'll stop 😂 I love the Yeti still as well. I'm going to try to get myself one at least, but would like a family of them & Sasquatch lol
@@RobinHoodBricks I'll definitely need to look into this when I get back home from this trip I had to go on really quick. My friend passed away Monday so we had to drive 16hrs back to Kentucky. I love the Lego "animals" when they are molded instead of the brick built ones. I've been really wanting to start completing the lines like Lone Ranger, Adventurers, Pirates, Castle, Pirates of the Caribbean, Hobbit etc. Fantasy type lines. I want to have a big mountain & volcano in my city/country & have all the non modern themes on the mountain or in the volcano that the city folk only heard rumors about existing lol
Your creativity blows my mind. I found myself slow clapping when you explained the ski pole thing where the mini figs can hold them, amazed!
Wow, thanks!

So nice to hear your lovely feedback. Thanks, Joe. Modular starts on Monday!
These videos keep getting better and better. Love the use of headlight bricks too.
I must say I was quite impressed with myself there. Master Builder in the house, haha!

Very true - @elizabeth A - Robin does some great builds and MOCS - glad you like our British accent:)
Very nice! That completed the row of shops in a perfect way!
It has, hasn't it. Thanks for watching!
Well done, Robin! The Yeti looks perfect on the top of the store! :)
Yes, I agree, he does. Maybe I should run a competition to name him?!
Why not?! It's worth a try :)

Great video once again. By the way; Part 20482 - round 1x1 with pin holder - will also work to hold those skate pieces.
Ahhh. Good call. There always new ways to discover.

@@RobinHoodBricks Yes it worked really well indeed. The way you did it was something I actually overlooked when looking for a way to mount those skates.
@@ripzura1929 It just came to me out of the blue!
Love it!
Thanks, Ty!
:D
Like the build as usual. Always clever building techniques. I’m not a fan of open back builds but that’s your city not mine. Enjoyed the video!
The theory is that you can't see the open back directly and it lets more light in!
I like the solution for covering the cut-away above the subway station! Love the Yeti!
Yes, I thought you'd like that improvement. Yeti is also popular with Mrs Hood!
Very well done, as always!
Cheers, Adi. It's appreciated!

Yes the tiles on the edge has made quite a surprising difference.
The Yeti is stupid but I swear you will warm to him with every passing day!
Great job! I'm already excited for mondays video!
Me too. I'm excited for the next five or six Mondays!
Cool video. I’m excited to see modular Monday.
Me too. I hope you like Part 1!
I can’t wait to see your modular building Robin!!!
Hoho, it's looking good. Did some videoing today. Very proud!
Fantastic use of the crazy jetty!!! Verry funny!
Smart to buy Just the ski shop!
I was a bit disepointed as well (especialy the price) of the set but I like some parts and some People.
My thoughts exactly. Thanks for the comment!
Love the yeti. I did not even remember it was a lego
I didn't know about him either until i saw him in a BrickLink store!
Hello from Indonesia, always watch you from the first lego city update. Super duper amazing work sir.
Oh, thanks Abdul. Hearing that has made me happy after a hard week!
It's a wonderful row of shops
Why thank you!
A great addition. I don’t like the set it came from but the ski shop looks great
My thoughts exactly. Really glad I could get just this bit of it though. The timing with getting a yeti was most fortunate!
I’ve watched this 3 times now
Wow. That's great support. Have you watched all the older videos too?!
Robin Hood Bricks yes all up to date
The shop looks great with all the additional merch!
Yes, it's snow full of winter stuff!
Look Amazing Robin especially the Yeti on the roof you can't missed that shop for sure, loved loved fully stocks up shop..❤👍❤👍
Where's the snow sports store... oh there, with the massive yeti on the roof!
You can't say ski shop without Yeti
@@josephd27 totally joseph
Is it getting boring? Not yeti!
This shop is brilliantly well-stuffed. Good show; thanks for another entertaining video.
Thanks, David. It was a fun expansion to do that one. Glad you liked it!

Great work man! Very inspirational :)
Gotta love the yeti!
Could you add the Lego Hidden Side set: Shrimp Shack attack and modifie it first?
That is coming. It will be the centre building of my beach. I have a few things to do first but that is coming, I promise.
I hope you can wait for it!

Maybe where the tram dips there could be a tram stop close to ground level behind the shops so customers can arrive to buy things from the stores?

Cool. I have no plans for my lime green toy shop as I have a bigger one and a LEGO store already!
@@RobinHoodBricks I have my lego store on the other end of my city to whwre my city square is.
Reminds me of the ski shop from Club Penguin before it was changed into the boring phone company.
Great work!
