If not entire subthemes for those ideas, at least do a proper bus terminal, pizzeria, news station and a post office.

I would buy any of these if done right. :thumbup:

So far, here are some subthemes I'd like to see. 

  • News 

News. That is a fun idea. Set possibilities:

  • Undercover investigation
  • Camera van live at the scene
  • WKLL News station
  • Traffic Chopper
  • News drone
  • NEWS MECH

News and Pizza are my two subthemes that can tie into anything City related themes tbh. TV 6+ is City's news company btw.

@pooda I wouldn't personally be that interested in power sets, as I prefer 'leisure' activities or exploration. I suppose playability is a major factor Lego considers when deciding City sets. I like the bus idea though. One of my favourite sets in 'recent' years was the 2010 public transport station https://brickset.com/sets/8404-1/Public-Transport-Station

I see you're a fan of the spin off sets. That's what I call the special police and explorers sets. Though I think leisure activities are reserved for Friends. 

As for that public transport set, that vehicle pack was amazing. I actually saw hope in thinking that it would start a trend of vehicle packs for City. It's a shame I didnt get it when it was out. 

But what is your view on the pizza, mail, news, paramedics and Outback theme ideas?

How about bringing back some Octan love with gas stations and whatnot. 

I'm working on my own service station MOC atm. LDD design is done, been building it up for the past few days.

I think you'll be happy to know that in 2020, City is doing a gas station and some race cars - which would HAVE to be Octan. I hope the tuning shop is Octan too.

I'm hoping that someday Lego will do a set like this:

Set: 607531 Lego High Rise This set would be about 700 pieces, cost $70, and if you bought more than one, you could make the high rise even higher! I'd really love a skyscraper but the price would be astronomical!

I think a taco truck would go well in the Great Vehicles line. Or a truck selling some sort of meat (chicken wings, barbecue, something like that)

I imagine it would look very similar to the recent pizza van.

What would they sell though? Probably turkey / chicken legs:

as the existing hot dog seller has sausages covered:

I propose that TLG start a line of food trucks under the City theme.

Hmm... How about a Shopping Mall set? That would be pretty cool.

I'm surprised Lego hasn't gone that route.
