2016 City Sets - Rumours and Discussion

Recommended Posts

I'm really liking the dustcart, but I am concerned that it's like 10 wide at the widest point, the scale of some of these models is getting quite out of hand

So it looks like the prison island set may be the first set to use the 1x3x2 inverted half arch other than the Ferris Wheel that it debuted in. It seems to appear in Medium Stone Grey for the lower half of the sewage pipe escape route. I was just noticing the other day that no other sets had used that part, so I'm glad to see it's finally being used again.

Is there a pic for the fire ladder truck from officials?

Not at the moment, i don't think we've seen official tire escape pictures, so here they are. Anyway the crook in this set is really awesome.

What a cute little set. Looks like it fits right in with Prison Island so I'll probably get it.

I'm really liking that prisoner figure, as well. I like that his chain-gang shirt is tied around his waist!

Interesting. I wonder what the significance of "92116" on the crook's torso is? At first I thought it'd be a set number, but it's not—and the part number is the head of the CMF sad clown. :sceptic:

Is that a new life jacket?

I'm not a big fan about the gap it causes in the neck. Most neck accessories are either flush with the entire head (armors, capes, wings) or they fit snugly around the head (beards, bandanas etc.), in such a way that any gaps aren't noticeable. But it's noticable here and it just looks like a poor design choice...

It's about time Lego fix that life jacket issue, it totally doesn't look right at all. :hmpf_bad:

But the set is neat for the escapee minifig, a different kind of crook for a change. :grin:
