prateek Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 The TTs are kinda disappointing this year, but the big cars look cool, aside from the foot launcher. I still want to see some Ferraris or Lamborghinis though. Quote

captainsamus Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 Hey! Just came back from another trip to my TRU (United States), and they now are fully stocked on 2010 Racers....including all four of the larger foot pump cars, all 4 Tiny Turbo playsets (they added Security Smash), and all 4 Canister TT. Here are the front shots, which were shown earlier in the thread: Back shots showing the reccommended playsets: 8195 goes with Security Smash (8199) 8193 goes with Highway Chaos (8197) (A picture on 8195 and 8193 shows a suggestion for combing the two vehicles) 8192 goes with Chopper Jump (8196) 8194 goes with Ramp Crash (8198) (A picture on 8192 and 8194 shows a suggestion for combing the two vehicles) Again, sorry for the quality, they were taken with my cell inside TRU. The TTs are kinda disappointing this year, but the big cars look cool, aside from the foot launcher. I still want to see some Ferraris or Lamborghinis though. I think the 2010 TT playsets are actually a lot better designed than last years. Last year they were mostly racing themed, where as these are more action oriented. Quote
squidman85 Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 Wow!Tiny turbo playsets are amazing!Much better than 2009 first wave,i think. The best of them,i think-8196 and 8199 Quote
Toa_Of_Justice Posted November 21, 2009 Posted November 21, 2009 captainsamus, did you happen to notice if any of the standalone Tiny Turbos had names on them? I know which ones are Turbo Tow (8195, the red Hummer-like tow truck), Blue Bullet (8193, the light blue and orange racer), and Nitro Muscle (8194, the dark blue/purple car). However, I still don't know the name of the lime green truck (8192). -Toa of Justice Quote

ILikePi Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 Chris from Reasonably Clever found 7971 Bad at TRU: Probably the shortest set name in the history of LEGO. Quote
Zip Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 It's also the most accurate when it comes to describing the set. :P Quote
ILikePi Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 (edited) I found 7970 Hero at Toys 'R' Us a couple of hours ago: EDIT: And a clearer front box shot of 8198 Ramp Crash: Edited November 25, 2009 by ILikePi Quote
Toa_Of_Justice Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 UPDATE: Toys 'R' Us Canada has descriptions of some of the January 2010 Racers sets. Main LEGO Page Lime Racer Blue Bullet Nitro Muscle Turbo Tow Fast Strong Hero Bad Chopper Jump Highway Chaos Ramp Crash Sorry, there is no description for Security Smash. -Toa Of Justice Quote
The Green Brick Giant Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 It's also the most accurate when it comes to describing the set. :P I like you, I was thinking the same thing. Those stupid blower things are the most useless piece. I can't stand them. I was hoping they were forgotten after Life on Mars, then they came back for Mars Mission. I wish they would just stop the pain. Quote
ILikePi Posted November 28, 2009 Posted November 28, 2009 All four pump action sets and possibly all the fold out track sets are at LEGO Stores (at least the one in Valley Fair): Bad, Strong, Fast and Hero are the only ones, right? Quote
Ondra Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 (edited) Do you know that? http://www.brickset.com/detail/?Set=8214-1 Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia di stato Edited January 7, 2010 by Ondra Quote

Raven Brickroft Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Do you know that? 1:10 Technic Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia di stato I'm not one to collect those large model quality sets, but that car as a LEGO display is just SMASHING. So shmexy. So smooth. Quote

I hope you know that those pics are of the real car I can't wait to see pics of it, I want this set already relly badly! BTW, what's with the names of those kick-cars? Quote
The Cobra Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 "Kick cars" are: Lego 7967 - Racers Fast Lego 7968 - Racers Strong Lego 7970 - Racers Hero Lego 7971 - Racers Bad An Italian store calls them Serpente, toro, lupo, bandito (Serpent, Bull, Wolf, Bandit). That same store has prices for 8214 Police Gallardo (54.99) and 8211 Brick Street escape (49.99). Tiny Turbos and Foldouts will be priced like 2009 sets (4.99 and 14.99 each), while "kick cars" will be 11.99. Quote

I'm aware of that. What I mean to say is that I can't wait to see the LEGO set of that car. I do hope it translates well. The car is just so darn shmexy. Quote
legomilk Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 The Cobra hello pics from the sets. Here’s 4 LEGO Mini Promotional sets from the LEGO Racers. Quote
