Dervish Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Just noticed my local toystore has the new mining sets and something else listed as avaible to purchase. So I suppose they have now arrived in Finland. 4204 -> 84,90 eur (0.11 euros per part) 4203 -> 36,90 eur (0.12 euros per part) 4202 -> 34,95 eur (0.13 euros per part) 4201 -> 17,95 eur (0.13 euros per part) 4200 -> 12,95 eur (0.13 euros per part) 4429 -> 59,80 eur (0.14 euros per part) EDIT: Added direct links to products..

Solscud007 Posted May 26, 2012 Just saw the mining sets at a Toys R Us outlet along with the beach house creator set, monsters and LOTR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted June 2, 2012 Instructions are up on Lego.com Customer Service building instructions page....I'm about to start downloading the 4200 mining 4X$ for starters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xtremegoogler Posted June 2, 2012 Is this part new? Cause I don't like it (set 4207 instructions). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lyichir Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Is this part new? Cause I don't like it (set 4207 instructions). It's not new. It debuted in 8639 Big Bentley Bust Out. While I didn't really like its use in that set, it looks more natural in the upcoming garage. Plus, it serves the functional purpose of raising up the ceilings of the garage without detracting from its stability. It's 13 bricks tall, so even two 1x2x5 bricks wouldn't reach that height, and they'd tend to buckle under stress.

xtremegoogler Posted June 2, 2012 Okay, thanks for the info, Lyichir. I think you're right about the height and sturdiness, the latter of course a consequence of the open nature of the garage. I just don't like the holes in that element and the hollowness inside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Klaus-Dieter Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Thank you all very much for the information and pics! The park garage looks really good. Only car doors are regrettably missing. The hospital is ok - but it's much too small. Apart from the 4x4 mining pick-up the mining sets look much too <insert that tiresome argument> and so I will - if any - only by the pick-up and possibly the loader with the digger. I already ordered the park garage and even built the vehicles. In the next days I'll build the garage itself. Then I'll do a short review (not a big one since I've got only very few time and I already opened the first bags without making pictures of them before).

Klaus-Dieter Posted June 5, 2012 (edited) I think we haven't had yet an official picture of all contents of the advent calendar: http://www.brickshop.nl/lego/city/lego-4428-advent-calendar-2012-city.html Like last year's advent calendar this one, too, is only . There's nothing nice and exciting included. So I for sure won't buy it. 2008-2012 TLG released amazing advent calendars - but this time seems to be over.

Klaus-Dieter I kind of like this years ( granted i am an ex Firefighter so this year has a lot for me). One thing I don't quite understand? Can anyone tell what the little catapult thingy is that looks like it launches white round bricks? What is that supposed to be?

Lyichir Posted June 7, 2012 It will probably come with the game as a free gift Or at least as a preorder bonus. I'm excited for this game, and if it comes with this minifigure of the main character, even better! Even though he's a character in the game, I'm sure he'll still be usable in standard LEGO City, perhaps as a more specialized officer (like riot police, for example). Although if he's a preorder bonus, getting a whole squad of officers like him could be very costly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bricksan Posted June 7, 2012 Here are two vehicle screenshots from the game, what you betting that these are 2013 sets: WiiU_LegoCityU_3_vhcl05_E3 WiiU_LegoCityU_3_vhcl04_E3 More screenshots here: http://brickfanatics.co.uk/nintendo-unveils-lego-city-undercover/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted June 7, 2012 Well, is it too early to think about next year....that fire truck looks interesting as a possible set and likewise the girl's pink car too ? Plus that main character from the game....heck, if he is exclusive to the game I'll buy a new Wii controller to so I'll buy the game to with it !

LEGO Guy Bri Posted June 7, 2012 Here are two vehicle screenshots from the game, what you betting that these are 2013 sets: [snip] Maybe the car, but I believe the truck is from set 7945 Fire Station from 2007 Oh wait, bet? 5 bucks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted June 7, 2012 Maybe the car, but I believe the truck is from set 7945 Fire Station from 2007 Oh wait, bet? 5 bucks! D'oh ! You are so right, but why have they chosen such an old design for a new video game....geeks, you can't trust them eh ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aanchir Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) D'oh ! You are so right, but why have they chosen such an old design for a new video game....geeks, you can't trust them eh ? Same reason they used so many older designs in most of the licensed LEGO video games. It's a lot of work to design brand-new vehicles, so if they have an already-created design that will fit in all right, then they'll take it, whether old or new. I also wouldn't be surprised if any brand-new designs from the game might have been made up just for the game, like the Black Pearl in the Pirates of the Caribbean game-- although if this is a set I'll be mighty pleased.

Perhaps you are right also, but I feel the 2010 truck was a more modern and realistic design, but hey that's just my opinion !

Aanchir Posted June 8, 2012 Incidentally (LEGO City Undercover-related, but also sets-related), this page says there are codes included in LEGO City Police boxes. Does anyone have any of these? There's no mention of them in any of the reviews from the Reviews Index, which makes me think they might be on the inside of the boxes and not someplace obvious like the instruction booklets. If, that is, they're in this year's LEGO City sets at all-- since the game is (I believe) due for a holiday release, it's possible that they are going to appear in next year's sets, or (hopefully not, but possible) only in later production runs of this year's police sets. I don't have any of this year's LEGO City Police sets. My dad bought the Forest Police Station at a LEGO store, but our family hasn't opened it and probably won't anytime soon since we've been trying to tidy up our house for a party we're hosting this month.

spm Posted June 19, 2012 Just a quick heads-up: I was in my local (Cardiff, UK) Toys-R-Us on the weekend, and noticed that they had the Mining sets available. Sorry, I didn't have a camera - but noticed that set 4204 (The Mine) was priced at £69.99 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
