The set I'm most curious about is the auto repair shop. I wonder what vehicles other than a broken down car comes with it. They have to put a tow truck in there. -
Awe man! I was hoping it would be like the chicken stunt bike - only with the minifigure in a teddy bear costume.
-
Its kinda difficult to explain! Perhaps I should've just said, regular police instead.
-
Before the specialized units were discontinued, "Classic" Police was a term used to describe the regular city based police sets.
-
Yeah! I saw those complaints myself and I was like "All the classic police stations (2014, 2017 and 2020) had random lift gates that led to nowhere. I mean...why is it any different now? However, I do have to admit that if they do exactly what you have in mind, that would actually be pretty cool given that the police station in my town (which is the 2022 btw) would officially become the best police headquarters out there.
-
Amazing! That looks really difficult to have built. 30 years old and I can't MOC like that.
-
The only sign of abandoned buildings that I have seen in City were mostly crooks hideouts and buildings that the fire brigade were putting out fires in. Police academy was a set I recommended once, but I actually had a people pack in mind. Not a building that has almost 900 pieces. That's even better though. I'm not complaining.
-
A restoration subtheme? Never thought of that before. How about an abandoned port authority?
-
I know it would cost at least 40 USD. But.... I wonder if they could do a Hummer-like limo set. All they have to do is take the 4x4 from this year's horse trailer set and extended it. Along with make it black.

I'm sorry dude. 😞

Storage and Sorting LEGO
Driver Brandon Grumman replied to Hinckley's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Man! Sadly I don't have a place where I can store my Lego properly. So all my bricks are all mixed up in a container while my builds are in another. I do hope to get a large set of drawers to sort my bricks easily. Something like what JANGBRICKS has. -
I miss the people packs! In 2019, when City was overstuffed with so much police sets, the people packs were one of the few things I looked forward to. The funfair people pack was my favorite. Thanks! Paradisa would be a good way to be equal in the Lego City theme. I also wouldn't mind if they put the taxi and limo together to make one side. Perhaps it could be a ride share service set thats part of a public transit subtheme or something. I know they probably won't happen, but we can always dream.
-
I wish Lego would do a standalone taxi or a limo set. Those would be awesome.
-
I never said don't talk about it at all. I'm just talking about the hype for them. We see the same animals every year for City; house pets or some species of wild animals. We do get the occasional bug every now and then. But for the most part, it's really nothing we haven't heard of in City before. Matter of fact, I put animals on the same level as emergency based sets. Overrated! Things like a doughnut shop (2019) or a grocery store (this year) get me interested.
-
Well sorry.
-
Am I honestly a criminal (lame pun intended) for saying that? Recently, I have been hearing way more about animals than I do about buildings. On pretty much every Lego City forum, I see comments about animal moulds. To be honest, if it sounded like I was upset when I talked about animals being overrated, its kinda because I was. City is my favorite theme, but I would like to talk about other things other than animals.
-
Animals in my opinion are overrated. I'm looking forward to the buildings and vehicles of 2023.
-
Neville is my favorite. He's totally underrated. I like the Scottish twins too.
-
I'm actually looking forward to seeing how it looks. Given the piece count and pricing, it ought to be. Probably an actual police academy building.
-
He was one of my favorite characters in Thomas and Friends. Sad how they did him and several other good characters that were only shown a handful of times.
-
I don't know. Sometimes only days after the set names and sometimes not too long before the picture reveals.
-
Or we could wait until November or December for pics to be released.
-
I'm thinking a single story building similar to the garage from the tuning workshop along with a broken car and a to truck. Along with some other pieces. That could make up all 507 pieces.
-
Well....it's a police and fire show....... I can't wait to see that one. My sigfig is a mechanic so if it's good, he'll love it.
-
507 pieces for the auto repair shop! I hope its a good set.
