It's a neat civilian set, and we didn't really get those often. Looking back, I still don't really have any interest in that set. The original MMV came out when I was well into my Dark Ages. I just want the set for more animals which I’m sure I’ll love buying extras ins PaB hehehehe It hurts more than anything because in 2010 I lived in Georgia close to the Discovery Center mall when LEGO had a small footprint of stores in the US and I always saw the Medieval Village set in display and for sale, but I never bought it because my dumb megablocks didn’t think it matched with the newly released Kingdoms lineup, I went there almost every weekend but I was there when they also had them on clearance so imagine my horror to realize how much they went up after wards. Since the Medieval Blacksmith I’ve got really into the civilian side of castle, I really hope this gets made as it’s the leak I’m most interested in, alongside the Snow White cottage I think from a description that was out somewhere the buildings are in pairs and can go back-to-back despite the diffrerent colours, like the Diagon Alley set With the blacksmith retiring late this year it seems like this set may fill the gap, hopefully at a price point that isn't too much higher I would be shocked if we don't get it in some form with the treatment castle has been getting lately along with the legendary status of MMV and MVR. I would assume they fold in together like the MMV if not for the colors, as is it seems like four completely separate sets thrown together. Obviously heavily subject to change so not much use nitpicking it now. I like the sand green one and the red guarded inn throwback but the snot yellow one really stands out. The buildings look pretty odd as the colors are all fairly bright and clash. The LEGO Medieval Blacksmith Set is on sale on and in LEGO Retail stores from 1st February.As someone who missed the original MMV I'm going to buy it regardless but the prototype images don't make it look terribly appealing.

Without doubt, fans will be fascinated by the workings of the forge, the architectural details and the characters they find there when they build this set.” “We loved the idea of creating a small blacksmith’s house on the outskirts of the medieval world, where every knight goes for a set of shining armour.
