  1. Very true! But you can't deliberately crush another's hopes and dreams for Lego. Listen! I just want to see something different for once. Ok?
  2. Yeah! That was kind of a bad move. Only releasing it fof Wii initially.
  3. Oh I see. So that was just an update. That could explain why the cover art looks pretty much the same. He's just in his new suit and a newer police car is in the background.
  4. Wasn't there another LEGO City Undercover released in 2017?
  5. I agree. He was more realistic and City is based on realism....or at least should be. I mean... what kind of last name is Detain.
  6. Maybe not shops! But subthemes that could still appear to kids, but don't involve police or discovery. Like construction or garage or airport or a subtheme centered around the bus system. I don't want them to stop making police. I just don't wanna see a darn police theme or explorers theme every single year. It gets boring. Better yet, that's exactly what I think - since you asked all those weeks ago. I think City SHOULD stay within the city limits and cut the extra police themes.
  7. Well then, you might as well request this this forum here gets removed. Except...it kinda is.... Lego only can produce a certain amount of bricks per year. Instead of making subthemes that are different, they use them to make more police subthemes and more explorers subthemes. That isn't confrontation. I didn't even say your name, did I? So don't throw accusations. I didn't call you an apologist. I said your comment was what an apologistic. There is a difference between getting on that side and actually being one of those people.
  8. Yeah...let's just say I keep forgetting that.
  9. I'm not an apologist because I DON'T defend the current state. Like I said, its not going to do any harm to the company. Unless its that particular team that works on those particular sets that get paid for that one thing....it won't do any financial damage. If you've got an issue with me not supporting the current state of City, you can easily mute me and pay me no mind. But instead you feel the need for confrontation and arguments.
  10. @Asajki That comment is an example of what the City Apologist Group does. These guys aren't easy to deal with. I'll show you how to deal with them. @MAB Well....easy A. They'll just buy the emergency based sets from the previous year. Simple as that. Lego is a multi-billion dollar business. They can afford to do things like that with their top themes. They still get paid for sets from the previous year that they are still making. Its not going to cause any trouble financially. Unless there is a piece of the payment system that I don't know about. Also when I say civilian based sets, I also mean sets that don't go under a particular subtheme. Like set 60204. It was just put out there. It was what I call an "Original" city set. Same with 60200, 60154 and 60169. So yeah....it wouldn't be just shops.
  11. These guys that I speak of don't just defend the current state of City. But they will also disappoint you and crush your hopes and dreams when it comes to non-police or non-explorers subthemes that you want to see in City. They claim that they aren't doing any harm, when in fact they are deliberately doing it. I really would suggest that you not follow in their footsteps. I call these the City Apologists Corp.
  12. Well tbh, you can in a way say that same thing about today's Lego City. Though the focus is not only on heavily on emergency, but also science. I mean.....Yes, the kiddies and the subject of danger and crime have a good relationship. But.....I would like to see a year when Lego focuses only on civilian based sets for City like the doughnut shop opening, or the capital or the bus station. City has proven get success with sets like these. Why do you think they keep making them?
  13. Yeah! I kinda miss Chase. But they need to appeal to kids and Duke seems to appeal to children more. Chase seems to appeal more to teens than children.
  14. I shall check them out! I shall also be giving you a follow. Yeah! I had an idea on the Ideas For New City Sets page for a Metro Transit subtheme, which would focus on the bus system of Lego City. I also recommended a school bus as a great vehicle.
  15. @Lyichir Oops. I keep forgetting that Lego is international and not just relegated to the US.
  16. I don't see why it wouldn't sell.
  17. I had to snag the hospital. I was very excited when it finally was released. Though I do have to admit that they missed a golden opportunity to revive the Medical subtheme from 2006. But eh...what the heck. That's the least of my concerns. I'm glad it was an actual hospital. I think it was worth the $60.00 I paid for it.
  18. Did I exactly say next year? I don't recall. So please don't assume. I'm assuming you've never heard of two story showrooms. Ugh. I really hate it when people try to disappoint me on purpose. Especially when it comes to town related Lego sets.
  19. I know we had a corner garage. But another modular I would like to see is a modular car dealership. Maybe it could include different colors of the Smart car from 2010.
  20. In all honesty, I'm glad it turned out to be a flop. Could you imagine all lego people looking like Jack Stone because I couldn't. I think I like minifigures better.
  21. Haha Haha! I actually remember something. When I got my first Jack Stone sets, I thought that was gonna be the thing with Lego people from now on. Creator had some people similar to Jack Stone at one point. But it was for a short amount of time.
  22. That's amazing! That would look great in any town.
  23. Jack Stone wasn't actually that bad. Galidor was kinda neat as well.
  24. LOL! You've got more balls than I do. I wanted to say that exact same thing. But people on this forum are too dog on sensitive. I remember someone on this forum bringing up the Lego Apologists Corp or LAC for short. These guys will swoop in and basically defend everything that Lego does, especially when you don't like it. I see you're a new member. I hope you're ready to face heat.
