It's a shame that station costs $90, the City sets are getting marked up beyond licensed sets at this point. But the airfield and airplane sets look awesome. It almost seems like a callback to the 90s and 80s with that plane design, it might be worth it to stock up on several to populate an airport.

Do we know approximately when these will be available? "Summer" is kind of vague.

In North America all the summer City sets are coming out in August. I think they might be coming sooner in Europe but don't know when specifically.

What?

I thought it was an august release!

If I'm not mistaken, the volcano sets will be out sometime in May as well, according to the May calendar I've seen.

Wait, I'm confused. Do ALL of the City summer sets come out in May, or just the volcano sets and Fun at the Park?

That would leave... the airport sets and the $90 gas station. I think it makes more sense to release them all at once, in May.

Volcano sets, a Friends vet set, and creator RV are featured as new in May on the back of calendar. I would guess that all the city sets will be out at the same time.

Weird! That's not I heard from New York Toy Fair reports. I wonder if these are May releases only at LEGO.com and LEGO brand stores, or at all retailers? Of course, it could also be that the site I got that NYTF info from made an error.

No. It was right. It says August

How many waves of sets do we get each year from City? I've only bought the starter sets so far and here comes another wave!

Do you think "Fun in the Park" will have a sequel?

Maybe "Fun in the Beach"?

"Fun in the Zoo" seems unbelievable, but it would be so awesome since we almost have no sets with animals in system sets. I mean, normal animals - not these "girlish-cartoon-style" ones from "Friends" and "Elves" (no offence, I am a big fan of Elves myself).

A sequel to fun in the park is an excellent suggestion, Robert! Particularly fun at the beach would offer a new selection of summer torsos (could I also pitch 'fun in the snow' so that this is countered by some new winter torsos). It would be good if there was a new City minifigure set each year like this - a chance for Lego to give us new torsos not available in other sets and to make existing hair pieces (plus other accessories like bicycles and flowers) in new colours. Perhaps a 3 year cycle of park, beach, snow...

Although the fun at the zoo would be great, I'd rather also see an annual zoo set as well with new animals (so envious of playmobil fans who even have an okapi!). A zoo sub theme would be disappointing if it was a few sets released and then nothing forever after, like Farm...!

Still, I can't wait to get my hands on Fun In The Park - new torsos, wheelchair, baby, hairpieces in new colours... A must buy for every AFOL City collector surely?

I'm not even a City collector and I consider it a must buy - I think this might actually end up being the first City set I've ever bought... :blush:

As far as a "sequel" - I'd like to see that happen too, but not necessarily right away. I'd prefer to see 60134 have a longer shelf life than other City sets and then see a new City People Pack come out every three years or so.

Thank you very much for the updated pictures! :classic:

About the price of the gas station:

I agree that 90 Dollars (supposably 80 Euros in Germany?) sounds overpriced. But keep in mind that we get three decent vehicles, four minifigs, a bicycle and a detailed interior in this set. Imo I prefer to pay a bit more and therefore get a decent sized building with a great interior (instead of a minimalistic building for less money).

About more minifig packs:

I completely agree with you that we need much more of them than only one. Esp. since the "Fun in the park" only includes one more summer related torso (the girl with the glasses)! And I would really like to see a "Fun at the beach". But I fear that we at least have to wait til 2018 for that a possible set. Which concerns a "Fun in the snow" minifig pack, I highly doubt that we'll ever get one since winter related stuff (til now) is only located in the Creator Expert line (Winter Village) and not part of the City theme.

Thanks for the new pictures!

60103, 60134 and 60132 looks pretty good, but the price for 60132 and 60134 is just ridiculous even for a City set. The others are kinda boring for me.
