I am done! Here are the last ones. The whole album can be seen here. I also updated the first post. 6462: Aerial Recovery Loved this set as a kid. Was the boat and the trike in the original set rescue equipment or did those belong to the diver? I chose rescue equipment for my version. I like how the helicopter turned out and that I even could use the new "porsche bow". 1069: Speedboat The only civilian set. I only did it to complete the series :)

Thank you for your comments. Here is the next one 6473: Res-Q Cruiser With the telehandler I went with a more realistic approach. A lot of fire departments and disaster management agencies use them with different attachments.

2962: Res-Q Lifeguard I changed the windscreen and turned this into a proper "baywatch" vehicle The big helicopter and the hovercraft are next... :)

Thank you all so much for the great feedback. It took some time but I finally got around to do the HQ. 6479: Emergency Response Center I think the new road plates work great for the pier. For the tow truck I built 4 or 5 different versions. But now I am quite happy how it turned out.

Thank you, Klaus-Dieter. Yes I am currently working on the HQ...but it's work in progress.

The 1998 Res-Q theme was one of my favorite line of sets growing up. Just for fun I decided to rebuild the sets digitally and imagine how they would look nowadays. I startet with the four smaller sets. What do you think? Would you like to see more sets? Do you think it would be realistic for TLG to recreate a theme like RES-Q nowadays? Your feedback and ideas are always welcome. Edit: I completed the series. The album can be found here. 6451: Res-Q Jet-Ski The smallest set of the line. I didn't put too much work into this and just redid 30567: Police Water Scooter in RES-Q colors. 1069: Speedboat The only civilian set. I only did it to complete the series :) 2962: Res-Q Lifeguard I changed the windscreen and turned this into a proper "baywatch" vehicle 6431: Road Rescue The 1998 version was too simple in my opinion. I added an enclosed body to the SUV so all the tools could be transported. The SUV seats two minifigs. 6445: Emergency Evac I had so much fun with this set playing with the rope and the ambulance. I tried to keep the beefy looking off-road truck look and the possibility to load a stretcher in the back as well es the little trailer. 6451: River Response I changed the little vehicle a lot. Now it's an atv seating two minifigs. I kept the shape of the boat but added a proper cabin. 6462: Aerial Recovery Loved this set as a kid. Was the boat and the trike in the original set rescue equipment or did those belong to the diver? I chose rescue equipment for my version. I like how the helicopter turned out and that I even could use the new "porsche bow". 6473: Res-Q Cruiser With the telehandler I went with a more realistic approach.

Yes I was thinking about it. Especially in the "road works" area. The hole thing is pretty much a WIP at the moment. I was also thinking about some elevation for some parts of the road/buildings. I made some better pictures of the vehicles

Some pics of my almost square modular city. The layout consists of a lot of SNOT road and nine 32x32 plates. All modulars are placed on baseplates with plates under the modular baseplate. Sorry for my bad photoshopping skills. Most vehicles are mods or Mocs.

I think "PP" for Police Precinct or "PD" for Police Department / Police & Donut Shop would be good ideas :D. I like this modular very much. When I first saw the front I was kind of hoping for a garage / parking spot for a police vehicle in the back.

I like the new modular very much. Just a few more decorations on the back would have bee nice. This does not look like an "expert" building to me:

Love the shape of the cabin and the combination of Sci-Fi looks and Lego Technic functions Why did you steer the middle axle? Would the vehicle not run smoother with 2 steered axles (front and back)?

60240 Kayak Adventure - Theme: City LXF File (LDD 4.3.11) Errors: 6207258: Fender, Front, No.1 missing, replaced with brick built version 6231925: Mini Clothing, No. 9 missing, replaced Some decals are not correct - Stickers are missing

Maybe ... when I was a kid I loved everything that could be combined or put together in different ways. I spent hours just combining the interchangeable modules of technic sets https://brickset.com/sets/8252-1/Beach-Buster , https://brickset.com/sets/8253-1/Fire-Helicopter and https://brickset.com/sets/8255-1/Rescue-Bike I also look forward to see these new sets. I liked 31605 Park Street Townhouse so much. Thank you all for your comments. Since TLG buildings often are fire or police stations I also tried to "modularize" them: Here is a row of small modular official sets together. and a MOC

when I look at LEGO City buildings like this one or these buildings I always think: Why can't these buildings form a true city? How can you put them together? Why is there no possibility to close the buildings up? I put some thought into this...and my answer is: the small modular building standard: the standard elements are: small modular half building small modular sidewalk small modular half building with sidewalk small modular garden element they can be combined easily: two small modular half buildings with sidewalk form a 16 wide modular building one small modular sidewalk and one small modular half building form a small modular half building with sidewalk one small modular sidewalk, two small modular half buildings and a small modular garden element form a 16 wide modular building modular half buildings with or without sidewalk can be put together in a row here a some examples for small modular sidewalk elements They could be parts of sets like this , this or other "car(s) and a bit of scenery" sets here a some examples for small modular half buildings derived from official sets by buying two sets you could get beautiful closed up houses for your city here is a small modular half building with sidewalk (60008: Museum Break-in) and also a MOC you could combine different small modular half buildings they look beautiful with modular buildings or as a row what do you guys think about this idea? Would this be a possibility for future city sets? Why not? regards marv

I got 42084: Hook Loader for christmas and created a little C-Model: Here is a video ... the functions are tipping the bed and hog steering. I think it turned out quite nice. What do you think?
