Early next year we should have a poll on which is the best Great Vehicle so far out of the 8 released. I have the same feeling about the tanker too, all three are at the top of my buy more than one list......just don't tell the wife !

You're right, I'm just wondering why only three this time round.....perhaps they'll keep three from last year or add them to the series because they are highly profitable. Oh, and by the looks of it when I was editing my last post someone bet me to the punch on the tanker truck !

Oh, yeah......it does take a close look at the front.....hinge plates I see. Note the sticker on the drum.....trowel, ah wouldn't be nice to get some builders tools eh ? Oh, yeah the cement shoot is positionable in more than one way.... And what's not to love about this set.... Another traffic light....cool, more the merrier ! Pity they didn't have a double female minifig set......female car driver and female truck driver.....oh, well that's what us AFOL's are for again ! EDIT - tanker has been found.....thanks to Brickset ! Though I'm not a fan of the fuel pump, note the hose on the pump is thicker than the one on the actual tanker....shouldn't that be the other way round if I remember my Year 11 Industrial Physics !

Yep, hair for green leafy vegetables.....thanks for the comments 'Ardelon', public BBQ's are very common place in Australian towns and even cities. I have to finish modifying my council truck and build a roller for the road surfacing that's now part of the mega-MOC. That's to save cash in a way, plus it's makes it more interesting to display.....allows things to be changed when cash flow is better. Any suggestions or requests are very welcome......keep watching everyone !

Excellent classic town inspired modern vehicle 'Htrag'.....I like the digger as well ! Brick On 'Htrag' !

Totally AWESOME vehicles 'Htrag', especially the last one....fantastic snow transport ! Brick On in the snow 'Htrag' !

The tiger is interested......ah, I can use my old sci-fi writing skills for the first time in almost 30 years. My mind is already thinking up ideas as I write this.

Perhaps an exclusive set to tie into the Lego City video game or an unrelated building to the police or fire sets.....who knows ?

For real I hope these are.........it would mean my Mitre 10 MOC would get new tools ! Brickset claims also these are in this 2012 set.....

Excellent creation 'Taz', but that song comes from 1977 dude.....isn't Wikipedia AWESOME !

You are so right.......sorry for the slightly off-topic joke.

Thanks, it's based around the garbage truck from this year.....I was thinking of discarding the yellow for dark bluey grey instead. My council's colours is white and green so they'll stay for the moment......I'll update a.s.a.p. keep watching !

New Mannum needs some council vehicles so to start a tool/tipper truck....it's a bit of a w-i-p. More to come....so keep watching everyone !

I just got an email from Target, their toy sale has been extended until Sunday the 21st of October.

It's interesting to see the number of people into Throw-Ball ! Funny, how close NFL is to NRL.....except in NRL you must pass the ball back and no blocking......real funny thing is the drop goal which is used in Rugby Union/League and Aussie/International Rules is an actual approved method of scoring in the NFL (the last NFL drop goal was in 2006, before that 1942). Is that the reason that the NFL scouts the land of Oz for punters eh ?

I quickly today tossed a new lawnmower together on a small green stand....which there is a very good reason why.....try and make one then you'll find out for yourself ! More stuff coming.....so keep watching (man, I sound like a broken record saying it over and over ).

In some ways you are right yellow does fit the cement truck better. Close isn't it eh ?

What a delightful design 'HenrikLego', excellent layout and detailing too ! Brick On !

Croc's are baddies just like this guy .....

Thanks 'TBB' and go for it.....you may steal my BBQ idea.....I don't mind at all....Brick On ! Oh, by the way everyone I made some changes to the roads.....I have some black 8x16 tiles.....so fresh road surface just being laid and hence I'm now working on some road construction gear.....yes, 'Alasdair' I might be using one of your designs shortly. Keep watching everyone !

Maybe yes, maybe no......we'll never know.

Mine from December 2009...... I can't wait to see the tanker, I'm going to hunt it down.

Maybe, if memory serves me correct....Victorian style......though I still am thinking Art Deco or Federation style......need more suggestions everyone !

Interesting....January release, okay so then when is the new TV series to support this is meant to start ? Besides it looks to be inspired in part by except with weapons and machines.

Has anyone noticed the helmet in the Umbaran MHC is the same as the ADU from Alien Conquest and the white spaceman from the collectable minifigs.....Lego might be getting lazy for George now !
