    To touch on the question about an adult Lego City sub-theme, I totally agree. I missed out on the Family House and electric car for 2023 (I never saw it on sale online) and the demand for it on eBay is insane. So I feel like the demand is there! I love the creator 3 in 1 buildings too. I need more copies of the Downtown Noodle Shop!

    I prefer your content style to TD bricks style. I learn more from you about how to improve my own daily journey into bettering my collection and display of said collection. Ex: I recently saw 4x4 gray plate on the PAB wall and freaked out cuz I knew i could go home and pull up your video on MILS plating and make some of my own. I see you as an "expert" whereas I would see TD as only a visually pleasing piece of entertainment which i forget an hour after i watch it. Your content lasts in my mind and has a deeper impact on me as a consumer. I actively refresh your pages on a daily basis. be yourself! ❤

All of this stuff is so useful to me as a newer AFOL.

    Whats Brickcraft is doing in is City that I don't think is a good idea for you is the lighting. Once you've installed lights inside your city you locking it in place. It becomes so much harder to redo the entire layout if you want to add a new set. Or to change the theme of a section.

    While watching, an idea for integrating Star Wars into your city hit me (especially since you’ll have the space soon). Build a convention center, and have a SW con, you could have it like people are cosplaying, people cued up for entry. So you could even have multiples of singular characters (even with different variations from over the years)

    Hey Jordan! Before asking my question for your next video, I would like to congratulate you for your cool content! I have a question that is bothering me, about my personal collection, that maybe you already answered, but here it goes: do you have any part of your collection that is stored away, or is it all in display? Does it make sense to keep sets in bags that we will probably never assemble/display again? Sorry if the question does not make sense, but I have a large collection, and no display space for it at the moment... Probably I will have a bit of display space on the future, but there are sets that I know I will never be able to display, and recently I started really to think if that makes sense at all... I do not need the money, but by other hand is "money" that I have in bins that probably will never see the daylight again... Sorry for the big testament, but I would really like to know your input on that! Keep up the good work

    Hey Jordan was wondering if you considered the temperature of being up in the mezzanine for your building area during the warmer months? It will most likely be 5 to 8 degrees warmer than the base floor. I would imagine you wanting to be as comfortable as possible for having a good mind to think and create builds. If you end up having to get some kind of air conditioning setup you would have to have set lower for the mezzanine to be comfortable then be too cool on base floor. If I were you I would use the mezzanine for storage and shipping area. If you end up looking into unit(s) for having air conditioning you might be able to hit up MRCOOL and they may do a sponsorship deal with you for you making a video of install and review of the unit(S). I have seen many KZreadrs do this. The MRCOOL units can do both heat and cooling. I have bought 3 of their units for my home one on each floor and love them had for 4 years now and plan on getting one for the garage soon. I am in no way affiliated with MRCOOL by the way lol.

    Yeah, I love Lego but not a custom guy myself. I love the actual sets and following the instructions, getting the box artwork etc. Have to agree with the comment re Lego releasing too many sets. I’m of the same opinion. Even though I really only focus on 3-4 themes (and not everything in those themes appeals to me anyway) it’s near impossible to keep up these days. I’m constantly playing catch up (trying g to prioritise my retirement date). Or sometimes a set will become available at a really good price and you end up buying it when you hasn’t planned for it.

They would be shooting themselves in the foot if they did that.
