Reviewers Academy 3 Year Anniversary

11_08_25From the Eurobricks Reviewers Academy:

Dear Eurobricks Community,

The Eurobricks Reviewers Academy was created three years ago today! So today we’re celebrating.

Over the last year five six new Teachers have swelled the ranks, and many students are carefully working towards becoming Teachers as well. As always, plenty of sets new and old have been reviewed, adding to the already massive amount of Academy approved reviews.

Since the creation of the Academy, reviews have been held at a high standard, one that we have maintained consistently these three years. As Teachers, we continually strive to meet this high standard ourselves. After completing the nine required reviews and graduating, Teachers remain active, helping the next wave of students and writing their own reviews.

We’ve got twenty new reviews for you to read. Be sure you read them all so you don’t miss the fun!”

To see the twenty special edition reviews or join the academy or just comment on the anniversary, join the discussion on Eurobricks.

This is a nice adaptation of the Town Plan art deco theater, upgrading it to modular and beefing up the art deco details. The diner itself is an expert creation filled with smart details and creative design. Check out more pics and join the discussion on Eurobricks. And look for more from sonicstarlight.
