The Island Chronicles

Can't wait for it.

I dunno. Space and anything that has to do with an animal mold are the sellers with City now. So much so that you'll forget that police even exists. I'm betting that we'll see more space in 2025 along with jungle - or some explorer theme. Of course you've got your police, fire and great vehicles. Yeah I think City is back to to where it was before 2020.

That's understandable. I asked because I'm a town builder so I need to know the width. Right now, 8-stud wide is too big for the vehicle size limit in my town, so I think I'll pass. But its a nice set for kids to play with though, which is obviously the targeted audience.

Is it 6 stud wide or 8 stud wide?

I think the trains subtheme for City needs to be dropped. I'm going to put how I think trains should be distributed through the City theme by quoting my good buddy @Vilhelm22 on what he said in the Ideas For New Lego City Sets forum on page 69 of that forum. "......The trains subtheme in itself shouldn’t be a thing. Stations and passenger trains should be part of a public transport subtheme (we could easily have enough to make with a couple more sets) whilst cargo trains would be in a cargo subtheme. Cranes and lorries would be part of this too. I feel like beyond the standard trains others could be parts of other subthemes as well. For a start, fire trains do exist, even if rare. A maintenance of way (MOW) train could be in the construction subtheme. A car transporter train could be for some great vehicles type thing. Circus trains have existed in the past. Hospital trains also have existed - particularly in wartime - a prime preserved example can be found at the National Railway Museum, York, UK (arguably the best railway museum globally, as trains were basically invented by the British). RPOs (Railway Post Offices) were big in the USA for years. Fuel train for Octan. Even prisoner transport trains exist. NASA had a train at one stage. It’s never going to happen, but a train could easily be added to every subtheme, and the trains theme abolished".

Lego City PD is around the corner! RUN!!!!!!

Took a break from Lego for the month of May and just getting back into it. Those construction vehicles are awesome, but are too big for my town so I don't think I'll be buying any. I agree though, those new uniforms look nice. I may see if I could just get some of those on the Lego website through Bricks and Pieces.

NICE!!!!!! Its coming to the US in June too!

DUDE!!!! I wonder how they did that with the back wheels. I guess I'll have to get the set to find out.

Hey look! Its Henry's brother!

No problem! Yup these are release day buys for me too. Yup! That's me! The Island Chronicles is a fanfiction series I made up based off of my favorite Lego game, Lego Island.

Guys guess what? Some of the summer 2024 sets are coming to the US in June, including the bus and Johnny Thunder's ATV - both of which are on my list. I'm so excited.

Yeah! I saw those. I'm getting the buggy that only has him!

That tram is a must have on my list. It is literally in shut up and take my money territory.

Gimmie dat bus

I want that tiger.

The only new set I'm getting is the bus.

Yeah! I think blue would've looked better.

Same here! Though to be honest, I get more vibes from the Toronto Rockets in Canada for this set rather than a tram.

What I'm most excited about is the fact that the tram actually comes with tracks. $80.00 USD isn't bad for what you seem to get in the set. You get a three piece unit with tracks and two platforms. With that being said, I don't mind paying that much. Once again, US buyers have to wait until August to get their hands on this awesome set. Considering that it has no electronics (no complaints from me), I would consider this as a train booster set/transit system expansion pack to go along with the passenger train and the train station from 2022, which I think were amazing sets to start off a public transit subtheme with.

The old harbor from 2007 was better. Not a fan of this harbor. It's good for a child to play with though.

They reintroduced old characters such as Rocket Racer and Johnny Thunder. I think the pirate ship and 2015 city Square set had references to Pepper from Lego Island and Captain Redbeard. So I don't think it's impossible to re-release older sets.

I'm thinking the beginning or the middle of May. But I could be wrong.

Oh!

LOL! Two polar opposites there.
