Hsanhe 6410-2 7-11 Convenience Store Modular Building gets an updated interior (not Lego MOC)

 

Hey there!  Welcome back to the Its Not Lego blog.  This week I  revisited the Hsanhe 6410-2 Convenience Store aka 7-11 Shop.   In case you're not familiar with this set, I posted about it here.

This is how the Hsanhe building looked when I first bought it two years ago.

Not long afterwards, I modified the original Hsanhe building set and made it into a 16x32 modular which I documented here. 

At the time, I only had enough brick parts to create a rudimentary interior and I had to leave the baseplate unfinished.  But, I finally got all the parts I needed to upgrade the 7-11 shop and so this week I sat down and completely rebuilt it.   Here's how it looks now.

 The sidewalk in front of the convenience store has been tiled and the baseplate widened by 4 studs to accommodate the banking ATM ( inspired by the one found in the Lego promotional store 40305 / Lepin store 36013 sets).

  A closer look at the ATM.

Out back, the service door is now covered by an awning and I took the recycle bin from the Parisian restaurant.

A closer look at the back of the store. I got rid of the street lamp that was previously next to the door.

Not much to see on this side of the store.

An overhead view.

The 2 piece roof removed to expose the new and improved interior.

 The slurpee machine got a makeover and it's flanked by a magazine rack.

New orange and white flooring installed to give a more polished look.  There's El from Stranger Things who is buying her Eggo waffle.  The store keeper keeps the store nice and clean with the handy broom at his side.

There's so much more product on the shelves now.  The girl is having problems choosing the right item.

 The cooler section is preserved from the previous build.

I was able to squeeze in an extra shelf of merchandise by the front door.

A few more looks around the inside.

The mailbox out front was lifted from the Sluban set M38-B0516.

Buddy, can you spare a dollar?  The light standard is a new addition.

 Here's a final look at the 8 minifigures.  The outside ones include a lady at the mailbox, the Fanta store mascot, a down on his luck guy and girl using the ATM.

 The four inside minifigures include girl at the shelves, Stranger Things El, and cooler boy and Zombie store clerk (both holdovers from the previous version).

This completes my review of all the changes to the Hsanhe 7-11 convenience store.  Please let me know what you think of the latest improvements.  Thanks for visiting!

Hsanhe 6411-2 McDonalds gets a new interior (not Lego MOC)

Hello again!  I'm back to show you my latest mods to my Hsanhe 6411-2 McDonalds restaurant.   The last time I changed this Lego style MOC modular building was about a year ago, when I extended the back of the restaurant from its original design.  Let's take a look at the latest changes.

Two new minifigures welcome you to the McDonalds;  Ronald and the Fry guy.  

Minor modifications to the exterior of the building include relocation of the trash can to the outside, some patio tile adjustments and an additional row of yellow bricks under the roof line to accommodate the interior signage.

The takeout window has been raised a bit since last year.

 Not much has been done to the rear of the building.

The Hsanhe McDonalds with the roof removed.

 The most significant change to the interior is the addition of new flooring.  It really lightens up the inside of the restaurant.

I added a cross beam along the top to allow for the menu signs, now I just have to find some images and stick them to the white signboards (future project).

 In addition to the outdoor seating, a new table has been added on the inside.  There's two minifigure patrons enjoying their meal.

There were already two eating counters before, but one used to be longer than the other, so now with the inclusion of the new seating, they are both symmetrical now.   Another two minifigure patrons are featured above.

Here's another look at the sign board which I mentioned earlier.  There's a mustard and ketchup dispensers next to the order counter.   Looks like he ordered all the expensive items on the menu.

The store manager minifigure is new.  He used to be the old Fry guy but he got a promotion.

 The serving counter is now configured in an L shape.  There's one of the employee minifigs getting the takeout order ready.  I made the order counter bigger to allow two minifigs to work together comfortably.

Not much has changed in the cooking area.  That's the original minifig that came with the set cooking the food.  I gave him a spatula so he could flip the burgers.  I added some vents above for better air quality.

 Your takeout order is ready now.

Just peeking in the back door.

Hope you have enjoyed looking at the latest changes to the Hsanhe Mcdonalds restaurant.  Let me know what you think!   Thanks for looking and see you soon.

Hsanhe 6411-2 McDonalds Restaurant converted into a modular building (not Lego MOC)

 

I've featured my modded Hsanhe 6411-2 Fast Food (McDonalds) restaurant in many of my blog posts about Its-Not-Lego town but just realized I never reviewed the modifications I made to the original model. If you haven't seen my review of the Hsanhe Fast Food Restaurant, you can find it here.

I didn't change the front facade of the fast food restaurant from it's original design except that I changed the pavement to use up some of the black minifig plates I have so many of.  

You can see here, how I've increased the depth of the restaurant to make it fit on a 16x32 baseplate.  I didn't have enough red bricks so I had to use some Sluban bricks which are a deeper red.  I'll swap those out when I get some new bricks.  There's windows on each side of the building.

Hmm, can't tell if my picture is out of focus or the window glass is foggy.

On the other side of the restauarant is an even bigger window and a takeout window.

More mis-matched bricks, sorry.

You can see where the original Hsanhe building ended and the new extension begins.  I also added an air conditioning unit to the roof.

At the back we've got a service door with awning, and a garbage can and container.  Got some weeds growing in the back.

I think my takeout window is a tad too low, I'll revise it soon.

Ok, let's check out the interior.  I made it so the roof comes off in two parts.

Here's the two roof panels removed.

The restaurant has a counter with two staff and two eating counters along the side walls.

I added 5 new customers in addition to the one that came with the set.  He's the one seated outside.

The original cooking area has been retained.

 And also the order counter which is also next to the takeout window.

 One thing I need to improve is to put up signage over the length of the counter.  Gotta find me some stickers of some menu items.

Here's a few more pics of my modded Hsanhe restaurant.

 After I took most of the pics, I decided to make a trash can and put it at the entrance.  As always, thanks for visiting Its Not Lego and See you next time!
