@Izzynufc-2 I can't wait to see how your next City subtheme idea will be about. 

I can’t either, it’s still in the works! I’ve been resting after my previous video as I did a lot research on it

60***: Construction Site Delivery: 350 pieces

Contains a transit style van (Roughly the size of the new Lego van), towing a trailer. Barriers, cones, tools, wheelbarrow in a new blue colour, etc. 2 or 3 minifigures (1 or two construction workers, maybe an architect or site manger with a new printed 1x2 or 2x2 checklist tile). The helmets for the crew could be a new colour combo if dual moulded. (Maybe a return of the headphones/helmet in white?) Could be used to introduce a "cement bag" mould that could be utalised in sets like friends as compost bags.

60***: Site Visit (90 pieces)

A return to the starter sets of old. 3 x Construction crew using a mixture of the 2024 torsos and legs, and one site manager with a new torso of an open high viz over a suit. Little side builds of things like a wall being built up, or maybe even a small skid loader. Contains a blueprint tile for 60502.

60***: Heavy Haul (450-500 pieces)

An updated, larger version of 4203. A lorry with a flat bed, and a small excavator with swappable "tools" (Drill, jackhammer,  bucket). 3-4 minifigures. A driver with a safety vest over shirt, 2 construction workers. If it contained 4, another architect as it seems to be a running theme in modern Construction sets. Contains a blueprint for 60473.

I think a great addition to the current wave of construction sets would be a roadworks crew (using the same elephant head branding that we have seen on all the construction sets as of late). Would come with a road grader, an asphalt paver (1 x 1 round plates in dark grey representing the asphalt maybe), some roadworks signage and barriers and a couple of minifigs (one of whom would be holding one of those signs that roadworks crews use to tell drivers to stop and let people from the other direction pass through when there is only room for one vehicle at a time). Maybe also have some plates that represent a half-built road. Could even include a tile with some road blueprints on it.

Then the next size down set could feature a steamroller and one of those machines that paints lines on the road.

Looking back at the 2024 wave of CITY Construction, I noticed some similarities to this year's Coast Guard launch. Both subthemes started with a similar initial launch of a ~$50-60 range set, and a $100-110 range set, so assuming Coast Guard were to follow Construction's pattern, some set ideas I had were:

60*** Coast Guard Surfer Rescue [4+] (~90pcs) $15 - Coast Guard equivalent of 60450 Construction Wheel Loader from January 2025

Coast Guard raft, surf board, and a small terrain side build;  2 minifigures 

 

60*** Coast Guard Rescue Seaplane (~500pcs) $55 [Could be like a partially modernized version of 60015/60164, but more in line with the current CITY build standards] - Coast Guard equivalent of 60466 Bulldozer from summer 2025

6 stud wide Coast Guard plane with brick built landing gear,  new plane door element, and opening rear cargo bay; Civilian vehicle could be a fishing boat OR larger catamaran; 4 minifigures 

 

60*** 4x4 Response Truck with Speed Boat (~380pcs) $40 - Coast Guard equivalent of 60478 Cement Mixer

Land vehicles could either be a 4x4 SUV [like a blend of 60412 & 60479], or a 4x4 pick-up truck, with a larger trailer, and brick built speed boat slightly larger than the one in 60417. Civilian build could be a life raft or a small island with lighthouse. 3 minifigures.  

 

60*** Coast Guard Headquarters (~1200pcs) $120 - Coast Guard equivalent of the upcoming summer 60494 Dump Truck & Front Loader 

Main build is the headquarters built on a brick built island style base, with a lower boat dock out front and helipad on the right. The main headquarters would be a two story administrative tower, connected to a  3 story lighthouse on the left [In theory almost a blend of 2008 and 2017]. Side builds could be a smaller helicopter, a civilian life raft or a fishing boat, and a Coast Guard raft. 5-6 minifigures. 

 

Most sets would likely be similar to concepts LEGO has already visited in previous Coast Guard waves, but I thought I'd share some ideas I had if Coast Guard were to follow Construction's release pattern, (aside from the upcoming backhoe as I couldn't think of a Coast Guard equivalent to it).
