Especially since in the rules they encouraged you to stay away from things that
have already been done and we got another castle build and another train themed
set. They are both cool, just not sure what the take away is.

Yep. This is why I don't like all these "ideas" things and copycat
programs. It is just more of the same over and over and over. The community really
doesn't like variety, and I am glad that LEGO itself provides more of it.
Can't wait for DREAMZzz.

^this, and unfortunately

Ocean Pacific/Trapper Keeper vibes for sure.

I think the Lego Ideas designers (or whatever group chooses the winners) are
to blame, they shoot down and deny so many good sets & always end up choosing
the same mundane crap that ends up being discounted a month into its release
At this point Ideas has become a pop culture theme, almost half of the sets are
based on movies/TV/video games - why they still call it "Ideas" is beyond
me as they seem to hate original designs 95% of the time

About 9 months until February… hmm, I think that should remind me of something
but I don’t remember what

The Old Train Engine Shed, 2298 pcs, 10 stickers, my guess $279.99 USD

As a railroad enthusiast (or 'railfan' as we're referred to here
in the USA), the Old Train Engine Shed would be the set I would want for my LEGO
collection so I could display my 10277 Crocodile Locomotive next to it... but
even if it does sell for $279.99 USD, that is way too much for me.

Parisian Street looks nice.
Tired of all the castles. Very boring.

| I like the Old Train Engine Shed. I would really have loved to see some more
variety here like vehicles or art/sculptures. However, I understand that buildings
are a solid choice. With the next round coming up so soon, I am hopeful to see
what's next.
In the past programs, I got a fire truck, a fish tank, and a train station. I
think the Clockwork Aquarium is my favorite so far.
Oh, I forgot about the Science Tower! Okay, I have two favorites.
