Lego City 2021 Rumours, information and discussion
Driver Brandon Grumman replied to Powered by Bricks's topic in LEGO Town
Based on past City waves, I'm assuming the rest of those are summer sets. But what would shock me is if we were to get a small mid year wave of some sort. -
Cool

Welp! This thread is in a coma right now. I think we need to wake it up. -

@Pdaitabird Great Job! -
Oh my goodness! I love Keith and Kristen Getty! My favorite song from them is Holy Spirit, Living Breath Of God!

Ok! I like that minifig. It's in the exact colors I need for my town's store clerks too. Now trying to find it is the hard part.

Oh Coast Guard is definately going to return soon. If not 2021, definitely 2022. Coast Guard is another one of those guaranteed subthemes for City. Cargo is another subtheme I hope will return soon. I remember putting on the Ideas for New City Sets page that the base set for that one should be a ship dock like setting. That means Harbor and Cargo have officially been merged. -

I can see it. Ever since 2015, the whole subtheme system began to cause controversy. You wouldn't believe it if I were to tell you that if I got a dollar for every time someone questioned a subtheme on any forum or social media platform, I'd have enough money to buy Lego out right now. I'd see stuff like "The sanitation business is a vital civilian service! How come that doesn't have a dedicated subtheme?" or "How come we haven't seen a postal workers subtheme?" "How come these jobs get dedicated subthemes and these don't?" Stuff like that. You can say that sales have to do with it. But with somethings, you may just have to take a chance and move them into production to REALLY see the results like they did with the garage subtheme in 2009. That was obviously a bad seller thus why it didn't stay on the shelves for long. Personally, I'm not bothered by it as I do somewhat agree. At the same time, especially on this forum, there are those who think those types of sets are better as small, in the background, releases in the Town and Great Vehicles subthemes. Do I think certain jobs should get a dedicated subtheme? Yeah I do! Is it likely to happen? No! I hear that Lego is changing up City for the better. The idea of subthemes would be a station on the line to consider. Little subway operator pun intended there. But if they are going to do the whole subtheme thing, I think they should give dedicated subthemes to all the major city services like police, fire, medical, construction, airport, garbage, towing, mail and public transportation - similar to how it was in the late 2000s. Then town and great vehicles (which have been merged into My City according to you guys and some other sources) can be exclusive to civilian stuff like the ice cream truck or the Doughnut shop. -

@TeriXeri I have the 2014 one. That one was nice. -

Ugh! That's my frustration. I always have to get a big set with a lot of matter I don't need just to get a bus. My town is in need of a bus service and it only has one bus unfortunately. That one was from the bus station set from 2017 - which is probably the best and closest they have gotten to a standalone bus. I really would like to see one as a great vehicle. That way it'll be easier to get. Lego doesn't cross theme waves. City is City and Creator is Creator. -

Or the monster truck design like in 2017/2019/2020. The 2014 is probably THE BEST prisoner transport that City has let out of the chute. Do you think there is a chance we could see a standalone bus this year? -

To me, it feels like Lego has done away with subthemes. I don't speak for anyone else, but I think that's a good system to have. The police and fire sets are mixed right in there with the other sets and there doesn't seem to be a headquarters for police - them having a crooks hideout set instead. Good move, Lego! The one I'm looking at is ironically, the police prisoner transport. Wouldn't it be an awesome plot twist for it to be a small prison bus instead of a van? That skate park, city center and family home are sets I'm looking forward to as well. They should release great vehicles in winter and summer. That way we can see more. I am disappointed though. I was kinda hoping to see a standalone city bus for the great vehicles lineup. A bendy bus perhaps. -

I dunno. We can only speculate. -
Wow! That looks exactly like it. I loved that show growing up. Fran Drescher is an amazing actress.

....and it came with nice features such as a holding cell inside the haul. I'm still beating myself over the head that I didn't get it when it was in stores. It's now hard to find an unopened box for a decent price now. -

The price suggests it too. I'm hoping it's one similar to the 2016 boat. That one was pretty cool. -

To be honest though, I dunno about a double haul now, looking at the price. I think the one coming up is about the same size as the one in the picture. But who cares? I'm still excited to see a darn proper sized police boat. -
