7902 Doctor's car

[takuto20]

Excuse me if I overlooked this, but we didn't see this before, did we?

The ambulance looks a lot better, in my opinion this set looks very rushed, like 2005's police cars with red add-ons.

EDIT: Well at least it has doors, a huge improvement IMO.

I think it's been seen. It's unrealistic though. Such cars don't really exist, and the ONLY good point about the set is the fig torso

The question I ask when seeing such weird vehicles is, "Are there cars like this in Europe where Lego HQ is?"

I don't even have to look this time... of course there's not. It's ridiculous. lol

There's not even an acceptably fun amount of 1x1 pieces in it. I hope the price point is no more than $5. MAX. If it's any more, one might as well just ask outside on the street for quarters until they have enough for the ambulance.

It is just a white version of the car that comes with the Fire Station. I will probably buy one for the fig.

Funny JINZONINGEN, seems as you only buy sets for the parts if they have a huge amount of 1x1 slopes. Well, what about the other parts? Like the white mudguards and car roof piece, and those red wedges and slopes? Yes, the kit model is a laugh, but the pieces are great!(for a small kit) I'll probably buy one of these.

[JINZONINGEN73]

Yah, I know what you're sayin'.

But what I'm saying is even though it's a "smaller" City model, the price would have to be REALLY low to not just spend a buck or two more to get the same parts in the Ambulance set, in sweet quantity, too.

::looks at Lego Shop@Home:;

Yick! 5.99?!? Yeah, see, that's what I thought. 2 dollar difference, but almost double the parts.

It could be that LEGO tries to make a counterpart for the Doctor's Ambulance. Which (in Denmark) is a smaller car for example the Merceds ML - it's a quick response vehicle placing a doctor at the scene of the accident before the slower ambulance carrying only medics arrive. It really works! - And my guess is that "The Doctor's car" is a SUV version of just that :) - Well this is just me guessing ;)

Strange vehicle. When it comes to these types of vehicles, I really liked the open cars from the 80s (or) the Spiderman vehicles a lot better.

Here's a shot from the Paramedic Unit released in 1980:

I've found a "real" picture of the doctor's car [read earlier post] and it looks like this:

I know it's a small pic, but it was all I could find.

EDIT: the letters on the side "L

They could have done better.

They could have done better.

I dunno - I think it's an ok set. The car might need some modifying, but the minifig is great and I'm surely going to buy it.
