As for the bridge on the truck- looks like a train trestle/bridge to me. It should be neat to see what Lego is planning for the 2006 trains and train structures (aside from the play/rc train(s)). The crane looks awesome.

I never bought this but it would be a nice addition to 3225. I would set it up if I were you. I broke a few of my trains out this season.

This is my 1st shot, but how about this:

still no cowboy?

Does anyone have scans of the instructions for set 7264, Imperial Inspection?

I don't believe Adventurers was even one of the theme choices.

The list is randomely generated from an existing list plus what others add. You then have to rank up to five sets. Not sure how Lego compiles the results with everyone ranking different sets. I'm guessing that the probability of a certain set/theme popping up is the same (somehow on a cycle). In trying the survey again, I only saw a few of the same choices per theme. With the ranking though, I think that Lego is trying to get an idea of the high demanded themes and sets. Those sets added by others (some of the silly ones) may not be as high on the list (like the Disney princess set/theme). It sound like Lego is trying to get our input, and that's good.

It would be great to see some of the other collections/cities out there.

Here's the choices I got for each of the themes after checking just one theme at a time to see what comes up. This gives you an idea of what people are asking for (sorry if this message wrapped or spaced funny (because of pasting from the internet). Star Wars Sets with many minifigs and and specific ones like Tarfful and have lightsabers too Episode III, the part where Anakin kills the Jedi B-Wing (Episode VI) A set with an Aayla Secura mini fig. any kind of space craft, the one to two man ships that are like 30 to 50 dollars each more minifigure packs from battles such as the battle on Hoth including snowtroopers and rebels Ultimate Collector Series: Venator-class Star Destroyer from Episode III The sleek silver ship Anakin and Padme fly around in (I don't know the name) More completed version of Jabbas Palace. Lightsaber sets. and more sets from Episode 1 and two. STAR WARS bucket of bricks including minifigs with more earth tones,greens,browns,tans,whites,grays,blacks,for making more your own creative ships/bunkers from the STAR WARS universe and with extra goodies like hoses, hinges, plates Castle More weapons for the knights. More knights. reissue kits from 80's and 90's like guarded inn and black falcon's fortress! we know you can do it!!! Mini Figure packs from Knights Kingdom sets Have sets of warriors and knights so there can be huge real size battles Castles and buildings similiar to the mid-80s style. Modular, detailed, and not overly simplistic elements. Castle items focused more on historic options like accurate siege machines Castle parts packs - castle walls, turrets, grey bricks, grey steep slopes, black roof sections. Just a huge set of medieval knights with infantry, pikemen, horses, and catapults. focus more on the medieval town. several of the offerred castles have large opennings in the walls (windows?) instead of classic small castle windows "Redwall" characters at Redwall Abbey, otters, mice, rabbits, from the books by Brian Jacques Town a country club Re-issue old sets from the 80's and early 90's MORE Legends of the old townhouse/House type of sets. Regular people need housing vs. 3 police stations in the past few years. Sets that are as realistic as possible, with lots of detail, reflecting European towns futuristic looking trains and buildings for a more interesting town Another Designer set but this time with many new window and door sizes and types. Parking garage (like 6394) a hotel wild west school playgrounds Train Bring back the snowplow track remover Model real US or European stations Steam Train A Christmas Train that could be added to each year with a different model Consider adding some European looking train sets. Bridges Interesting looking engines every 6 months a turntable and roundhouse Complete trains like SOO, C&O, etc. more types of freight cars Ancient Civilizations Historically accurate French Revolution Mythology. Great stories, even better characters. Hercules, Zues, Cerebrus.... Historically accurate early explorers like Norsemen Highly detailed, high-piece count models of the Seven Wonders of the World (probably not a big seller...) Wild West/Old West Roman type buildings with pillars and fountians horses and chariots. less empasis on fighting, more on culture, archetecture and the arts Swiss type moutain village buildings Ancient Greece - Trojan war, Oracle at Delphi, The Odyssey World War II sets Pirate Pirate figures Battleship Bismark More Viking and Pirare related sets - coastal forts, deserted islands, etc Ships from the U.S. wars like the Civil War. Spanish Galleon PIRATE SHIP SCULPTURES all new PIRATE system themed sets to compliment the older pirates. LEGEND the imperial trading post! Pirates vs. Good Guys We love the container ship. More industrial ships. Pirate ships Space I agree with ALL the other suggestions I see here, but I'd love to see tie-ins with other Sci-fi themes. Lego Stargate, Lego Battlestar Galactica, Lego Matrix, Lego Firefly! Good shows with good tech should all go Lego! classic space sets like 442,452, 487, 6702, 6701,886 = please bring back classic space :) smaller sets with mini figures, at least one per set I always enjoy the smaller sets that you could use together ALIEN BASE Larger space ships with multiple decks Space sets that give you a few ideas of of what to build but give you LOTS of extra pieces w/ minifigures to build your own sets with. LEGO Gundam series Futuristic spaceships that contain innovative uses of existing pieces and colors Apollo moon mission set with Saturn V, Lunar Module, etc. Buck Rogers space center Imaginary/Comic Heroes Disney type Princesses Cartoon Network's Code Name Kids Next Door (Ships,Treehouses) Quidditch World Cup (HP IV) I think you should make some Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario Brothers Legos Hulk Dollhouse spongebob and his friends and bikini bottom scenery X-men with Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Magneto's Prison... Harry Potter Quidditch field or Harry Potter In The Preficts Bath Legos based on books like Broken Sky

Just received a mail message from LSAH asking my opinion in regard to future sets: Here

Other (Wild West) - not a choice.

A guitar would be a nice addition for the band, and definately a drum. Has Lego made mini-fig instruments?

That's probably it.

It's kind of hard to appreciate a theme with just one mini-fig. His chief has no tepee or cowbows to make wars/treaties with.

Easier to pull and play with - but not hard to remedy.

Nice review Yoda. Thanks for sharing the images. I esp. like the mechanic fig's helmet for WWII mocs - nice fig and a great ship. Definately better than the 1st edition.

I'd love to see Lego make some more boats/ships. - esp a cargo boat like 4030 released in 1987. If this is for real, it's a neat boat. The motor looks unique too.

This is really a great little set. You can always remove the top and use the set for castle or pirate themes too.

I agree. It's a neat little set.

That's a good question. I didn't point it out, but I always wondered this myself. Maybe an early stairway to heaven? or perhaps a different kind of dream catcher? I'm really not sure. The photo on the front of the box shows it straight up as well, with a bow on top. I'm sure it means something.

Maybe. Any more non-western sets that you know of?

Nice set DW, but if you had a larger set, you'd enjoy the theme a lot more.

I don't think so, but I did picture it in the image with all the Army figs, but that's it (you can barely see it in the image).

Don't have enough tan baseplates, in fact my supply is just a few. In regard to MOT: I wouldn't knock them a bit. In fact, I initially purchased these sets to make them part of my Wild West town when they first appeared. They were my first electric trains (can't count an old 12V that I purchased in Germany later taking it back because of the U.S. power difference. In any case, I have all of the MOT rolling stock to go with the large black engine. In fact, I think I have 3 of the green passenger cars which I really like. These work well in green- I just wished the roofs lifted off. The red caboose is a great set too. I find it very detailed but it's a little high for the shed and signal tower. I did outfit the blue gondola (open freight car) with U.S. Army provisions, cannon, etc. Makes a great car for this and the blue blends right in. I may order the small green engine. I've been looking at it after your images of the brown engine. I have not seen the color kits sold separately here in the US or LSAH though.

I did not include it in the review though.
