LEGO City Apartment Building 60365 independent review! Modular system is an ongoing win 

I'm glad they've really started making buildings. That aren't just police stations

I really hope city sticks with the style when it comes to their buildings because this is the kind of stuff I want to collect.

Looks like a nice set but right off the bat, $95 is INSANE for this amount of stuff as well as the part count. Looks like $50 at most

I'm quite impressed by the TV design and bathtub design. They look great! I definitely think this is the best city interior. Does that mean it has a great interior? Nope but it is adequate.

It's very nice that you can combine this set with the other one you previously reviewed, Jang, you would get one big appartement and all the stores that you need to make a small city block, really cool.

That slushy machine is absolutely brilliant, but does seem a bit pricey considering the lack of detail in some of the rooms, like come on an extra 4 or 5 pieces would go a long way in something like that bedroom. The bathtub is a very nice build, lovely bar of soap on the end, bottle of shampoo/bubble bath looks great but then "here's a rectangle bed in this room, enjoy". The infinity pool/jacuzzi doesn't seem to fit the build, and could have been a place to get pieces to decorate the rooms more.

Great review once again. I really appreciate how you didn't just dismiss the empty feeling of the interiors because having space for minifigures is important for play too. I really really like the look of this set, I hope lego continues on this note going forward. This easily customizable theme is really good in my opinion and the sets look much better than they used to when I was a kid as well. The decorative facade with the truangle tiles was a fun element too.

..had the Lego Group been releasing these super-cool, interchangeable modular City designs 10 years ago, I may have gone this route for city building as opposed to collecting the modulars! Fantastic designs & absolutely genius concept. Keep it up, Lego!

This is an extremely small nit-pick, but it bothers me that this set only has two trash cans (dark bluish gray and lime green), when LEGO literally released a Recycling Truck set in this wave of CITY sets that had a three-can recycling station setup (dark bluish gray, lime green, and dark azure). Why couldn't they have included a dark azure can, to match the other set?

Really love how the color scheme matches across the wave, I’d love to see how this set plays with the Downtown one

I assume the emptiness of the modules is so that they are all accessible to a minifigure in the mobility scooter. Cool to see Lego continuing to use the modular system.

I love this year's modularity attempt in lego (both in this and in the Dreamzzz Sets). I can't stress enough how good it is if you have modules that can be combined with other sets or interchanged like this - this is a thing they kinda forgot of late (I am remembering how fun the old Space ships were - you had a BIG one that could be endlessly portioned and combined - sad they never tried to combine them more, but seems they finally came to this idea

I love they are adding more in-product modularity, whether it's in vehicles or builds like this.

I really appreciate this system that they are using in City right now. Seems really intuitive and is easily customizable. This combined with downtown set makes for a really cool build.

It hasn't escaped my attention that that innocuous art-piece on the side of the building actually has the Blacktron-logo repeatedly hidden inside of it (although in white and green, but you know, camo?). JANG, I would very much appreciate it if you could attempt to mix and match some modules from this set with that of the other City-set -and- the Friends-tower (okay, and maybe a HP-module or two?), but also, if you please, with the original Blacktron Ravager. It would just make me so very, very happy. We all thought Blacktron were the bad guys, but all they really wanted us all to go modular.

Great review aga8n jang, I think lego should do £10 small modules so you can start with something like this ten add to it j

They could've literally included 20-30 more small pieces to add so much detail (a sofa with side supports, 2 pieces, a nightstand and lamp for the bed, 5 pieces maybe, and so on). Considering how much they ask for so few pieces, this should've had more detail.

I'm liking this as a parts pack. I like the colors and the large number of window pieces. Lends itself to a custom skyscraper/modern building modular. Same with the other recent City sets. I want 2-3 or each to build other things with. But they're all a little on the pricey side still. hopefully we see some good discounts eventually. As a set, the 8x16 module trend feels good when I see it. Nice commonality, plenty of opportunity to mix and match between sets. Could you make a video with this set, the Family House, Downtown core, and any of the other similar sets that you have all together? It be interesting to see how well they look/play together. Thanks!

Great set Wish it had a few more interior details Too expensive The mobility scooter is pretty cool

What upsets me so much about these sets is the lack of privacy the bathroom module always has like bad feng shui (also how close it is to sleeping parts of the module)

Modular, simple style, classic Lego

I really hope Lego stick with this modular system next year and not make something similar but not compatible

I can usually look past the lack of doors / stairways in City sets, but this set takes that to a whole new level. There is literally a balcony with no door, and the living room and bathroom also have no door between. I appreciate that City is releasing all these buildings, but this one definitely is not where its at. The lack of detail in the rooms and the fact that its only 1 apartment is a real miss, and so is that price.

Someone needs to modify that mobility scooter to have a minigun on each side 😂😂

Thanks for the review! I wanted to see this the most of any set

I like the color blocking of the store. The azure and green lime looks really nice together. The kitchen needs a houseplant. The bedroom needs a table or lamp. The fact the detail is lacking is really bad considering the price. The sofa might be lacking but the TV build looks really good. The patio / pool area needed a 1x4 plate. As I'm writing all that it seems lacking detail for the price, but looks pretty good. If it's 85 Euro it should be $80. I'm sick of sets being overpriced for the Americas.

I was really wanting to see this reviewed now I am wanting to see the ice cream parlor reviewed.

Wish they put a door in apartment and steps would have been nice touch

Nice design! Lots of space to play. Colours and style of building and mini figures clothes reminds me 80's - cool!

8:10, looks like the wrench on Tool shirts - the band. haha

I love it but that toilet looks like it's really exposed with zero privacy lol. It has no door and the windows are big and clear. I wish the red scooter piece had more studs cause it would be better for making more use of it, like chibi-style little cars

Part of me kinda wants to see someone MOC it by getting two, set one up in a slightly altered version of the second configuration that you did with the bathrooms flipped 90 degrees and stacked on top of each other and over the bins area (both combined to make an alley), then mirror it in the second set with the apartment rooms flipped so you have two separate open floor-plan apartments with everything on the same floor, and join the bike paths into one on just one side. Would work best with a few mods on the side walls to make them solid walls with a doorway into the bathroom and a few pieces added to make it look full (stock the store more, add more apartment decor, maybe switch the pools out for a basic elevator for granny, etc), but I think that would work pretty well. If found for a decent enough discount it would make for a much better city addition.

Hey Jang, I was just curious to ask how do you decide which sets get brought to the scene with the set in front of you on camera? I noticed you don't usually do it for City sets. Thanks for the great videos as always!

While I don't mind about the empty spaces, what I do mind is that there aren't enough doors! I have seen LEGO buildings without stairs, OK, but without doors!? I mean, how are you supposed to go from one room to another in the same floor if in between there is a wall? Overall, I like the modularity and variety of these late City sets n_n With a little bunch of pieces more, one could customize these buildings with more details and functions, something I like to do with many of the sets I have n_n

Did anyone notice the branding on the slushie machine is the same as the slushy truck? And the machines are the same?

I have no desire to buy this, but I love watching your reviews!

I love that City apartment sets are starting to look like minimalistic Master Creator modular buildings instead of just something that resembles a building

This set is really well done. I've never seen a LEGO bathtub before, and it's great. I like the mobility scooter too. Some good parts to have there as well. Around 100 doesn't look terrible for this. It has sizable bulk to it. Of course a discount would be great! Interiors are a little lacking. Thankfully that can be modified easily enough with a few parts from one's own collection. Yes, kids should be encouraged to modify, customize, and even completely rebuild their sets! Why did LEGO stop putting alternate model suggestions on the box? At least this one having modules and giving suggestions for alternate setups is a step in the right direction.

The fact is, Lego needs to focus more on continuity with connecting rooms with logical pathways for the figures. I find this really detracts from designs. Good review nonetheless!

It screams Miami to me. The palm tree and triangular pattern feel to niche for everyone's city to me. And the colors.

the lack of access for figs really bothers me. They all live in random cells

This set is bigger than i expected

Love the scooter!!!

Really like the vibe

Should rename this set “Barebones with aesthetic”

Awesome lego city apartment great review 👍

I wanted to come back to this video; got it for $75 as discount, and wanted to remember what Jang had said about it.

A bit pricey, but this is a nice modular set! I love that Lego has been extra embracing of taking things apart and being creative with it. They made a movie or two about it, for goodness sake!

9:12 Wow Lego officially made a minifig of Jang

The road plates look too much like water than pavement.

Granny mobile! Loving the modular system

As barren as the mini-mart is stocked, they'd be lucky to get two customers that want to be in there at the same time.

Available for £49.99 in the UK currently

Picked this up for half price on Amazon Australia, $69Aud, im more then happy with for this set for that price

Good to have more houses in lego city!

It looks like some of the Friends designers are working on the City sets now, which I think is a good thing

I like this set but i hate the fact that they're choosing weird colors

Lego city needed this customisation. Also a win for bike paths!

Quite expensive for this set and no vehicle include so sad😢

Oh look! An apartment I can actually afford! 🥴 Bad jokes aside, it looks like a pretty neat little set.

I have a question for some other commenters- do the 8 by 16 modules work with the lego monkie kid modular sets?

I'm really considering this set now that it's nearly 56€ on amazon... It'd go super well with the beautiful Friends Villa at 199€ don't you think ?

I thought it was an €80 set and that seems fair for the seize of the set, but it could have a little more detail in it.

Im glad they've started adding bike lanes. I remember watching tv and an interview came up about the guy who pitched the bike lanes to lego and it was quite a nice story to hear. Its also funny that the idea was brought by a dutch person offcourse

I don’t get the idea for the traffic lights

Can this connect to the Downtown set?

Lego city Multimilionare apartment🗿🍷🍷

Seems like these sets are getting more and more bare bones. $100 for a set that looks like it's from 1985 is terrible.

Amazing

Teleporting…😂😂😂 agree!

I think it lacks a bit of „soul“… for me, it is too much tried to be as cheap as possible, but trying to throw in a detail or two (bathtub, etc.) to outweigh that first impression. Do not really like the container style approach…

Imagine if lego did UCS city style sets of buildings etc they would probably be newr the proce of the UCS falcon but still it would be very cool (bigger than the creator sets) Also always and still loving the content jang!

$95??? I would question the value at half that price

Does this connect in any way with the downtown set?

I know what you mean, as if Lego economics wasn't already hard to gauge without massive inflation and currency market shifts.🤕

No bathroom door tho D:

Hey

People who get cynical always try to pass off their opinions as fact lol This set looks great btw and I want it more now.

I was waiting for you to do a review on this one lol i do think the interior are pretty bland

the finished build looks nice. sparse, but nice. although this screams $50 set. $90 is borderline offensively expensive for what you get. lego has gotten so greedy recently, and it's not like they were cheap to begin with. except for the new disney castle, all the recent sets i've seen have felt insanely overpriced.

Are Lego reviewers generally criticized for being biased if they have been sponsored by the company? Dozens of tech, game, and even shoe reviewers are sponsoreed but they explicitly state as such *and* detail that "these are my own opinions" etc...

As soon as I saw the store I couldn't help worry about people opening the doors to leave and causing accidents for cyclists! 🤕

Too empty feeling 🤢

Truly uninspiring

Lego Friends is better when it comes to buildings
