LEGO Creator Expert Palace Cinema (10232) Revealed

LEGO Creator Expert Palace Cinema (10232)

News from Eurobricks member GRogall is there will be a new modular building to be released in 2013, the LEGO Creator Expert Palace Cinema (10232). It is a corner building that looks very much like the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, CA. From the Shop@Home sales image, there are at least six minifigures and comes with a convertible limousine as well. The majority of the cinema is created with light brown and tan pieces and the roof is made from red tiles. The “Palace Cinema” sign will be made from 1×1 blue and white tiles while the lights around the sign will be created from 1×1 yellow round tiles. Also from what we can see, there are three posters but not sure if they’re printed or stickered pieces. There’s no details of the piece count, pricing, or estimated release dates but modular building fans will be excited to add this to their collection. What are your thoughts of the new Palace Cinema?
