I've been waiting to own this since the first grainy pictures last year. I love this set. The Tractor has a fantasic design and of course the pigs to add to the cows of last year are a must have (luckily you get four). Soon we will have camels and ostriches to add to the animal kingdom. Overall 9/10

Thanks for the first pictures of this excellent set BTT! The new overalls torso is great. And the design of the tractor is also better than the 2009 ones in my opinion (at least it's a welcome break from two similarly designed tractors in 2009). And let's not forget the lovely pigs... Oh, and those tyres were included in the Coast Guard 4 x 4.

Thanks for the review Brick Town Talk. I could not wait to see a couple of new photos of this lovely little set. I like the idea of this set where LEGO combines a nice tractor with a little pig farm. Tractors alone are nice but combined with little farm elements is a lot better. I always tought that vehicules should always be sold with something else and this set does it for me!

Thanks for the review! I'll get a couple of "7566 - Farmer" sets for the pigs. It should be cheaper that way. 25 GBP is out of my range unfortunately.

I'm sorry to say, but this review is bad...
It's looks like you made it in hurry...
no nice pictures of each part (one for tractor, one for pen, one for trailer)

You should put pig next to minifig and horse to show curious people how big it is.
-----------------------

This set is another win of Lego

Me like:
-4 Pigs
-Female in the set with new torso (they could use Tracs Hair here...)
- Pen looks nice
- I love how lego did the crib
- It fits to farm nicely
Me not like:
-Another farmer
-Another Tractor

Thanks for the review. It looks like a well thought out set. Love those piggies.

This is maybe the only set from the first round of 2010 I'm looking forward to get, and of course that's only for the pigs

Thanks for the review, but could you add your personal opinions, especially on the construction of the three elements? From the pictures it seems the build isn't one of the best, there is some details on the tractor but nothing particularly interesting. Also how about the piece selection?

Overall it seems quite overpriced for its size as all the Farm sets, but the fact that they included 4 pigs is a big "+", considering the pigs are probably the reason for 90% of those who will buy this set

Nice review, although you could go into more details with the actual set, like the tractor, the trailer, and the pig sty. I'm not going to rate this because I can't really tell if the set is good or not.

This looks like a great set. I really like the tractor design, and I love the colour. The trailer looks a bit thrown togethor, but im not buying the set for the trailer, so i really dont care. The new blue overall torso is great, and 4 pigs will be very welcome!

Where did you buy it?

[badboytje88]

How smart of LEGO to make a new torso print for the female fig, at first I was going to get the impulse set, but seeing this review convinsed me to buy this set in stead of the impulse set.

Thanks for the review! At last, a new overcoat for the farm sets!

Thanks for sharing the early picture review BTT.

My thoughts:

This is really a nice little/mid-sized set. I love the Farm theme and the new pig piece is a fantastic new addition to LEGO's piece assortment.
While another tractor would not have been my first choice for an additional farm set, the pig pen and trailer make up for it. In fact, I really like the trailer. It's definately a lot smaller than the grain trailer contained in the previous Farm set and the use of the bendable side plates will serve quite useful for other creations, esp. a train wagon (perhaps I may build down the road). One thing; however, that I think looks awkward is the hitch which seems a bit blocky/clumpsy. The back section looks interesting.

The pig pen has a bit of a Classic Town charm, although it would have been great to see the return of the sink/faucett piece. It's interesting to see the use of a brown fence to raise the back section, but I think it works. The overall color selection will blend in nicely with the large Farm.

I like the new female fig, but it looks like Mr. Green Jeans appears again, this time with a red cap instead of tan fidora (I call window washer attire).

Overall, I like this set, and will most likely buy when available. Oink!

EDIT: Please note: I have added a poll for our Townie fans to vote, and indexed, but your images are too large. Site guidelines are no larger than 800x600. But still, thank you for the review.

Great new pictures. I did not even know the set was available allready. And so close to my country
Thanks

[Wout]

Thank you for the nice review.

Could you maybe make some extra pics from the pig from different angels and how it;s fit on a plate?
