"Shopping Street is a technically ambitious modular with genuine design innovation and Easter egg-filled interiors that veteran collectors celebrate, but its $249.99 price and a value-for-money signal of just 3.57 out of 5 from owners mean it sits solidly Recommended rather than Must-Have territory."
Shopping Street earns a Recommended verdict with a BrickScore of 75.8, driven by genuine praise for its unconventional angled building shape, layered storytelling details, and satisfying building techniques. Owner ratings sit at 4.06 out of 5 across 172 reviews, which is noticeably lower than typical modular enthusiasm, and LEGO's own value-for-money signal (3.57 out of 5) and a 70% recommendation rate point to real reservations about the $249.99 price point. Critics and collectors largely love the design ambition; casual buyers are more divided.
Where they split: Critics and modular enthusiasts rate the design sophistication very highly, while the broader owner pool is more measured, particularly on value. The 70% recommendation rate and 3.57 value-for-money signal from LEGO's own buyers stand in contrast to the glowing responses from experienced modular collectors, suggesting the set rewards those already invested in the line more than it attracts new buyers at this price.

Brickset Reviews"LEGO sent me the 2026 modular building known as Shopping Street."
"I think many of the criticisms of 11371 Shopping Street came from viewing it in isolation. As a standalone model, it does look very unbalanced, and somewhat odd thanks to its unusual footprint, and also asymmetrical building heights. It's only when you sandwich it between modular buildings, does it start to make sense why LEGO went with this design."
"I like this. I know a lot of people don't. I don't understand why there's so much hate for it."
"it may not have the same 'wow factor' as some past modulars, but nevertheless it's a very well-designed and attractive model that fits right in with the rest of the street, introducing unique features such as the angled disposition of the buildings, the alleyway, the bird house, and the curved frontage on the corner above the music shop."
LEGO Shopping Street sharply divides owners: enthusiasts praise innovative building techniques and creative storytelling, while experienced modular collectors criticize awkward angles, cramped interiors, and underwhelming design execution compared to recent sets like Tudor Corner.
