Thank you very much for this information, CM4Sci! :classic:

Oh no! Not again Coast Guard! :thumbdown: We had that theme already in 2013. And there are so many great ideas we've posted for a hospital or a mountain rescue theme (which partly would be even completely new and the rest at least a long time not seen)! Plus there are so many non-medical themes which haven't be there for a very long while (e. g. farm) or which have even never been there before (e. g. forest)! With this decision the hospital theme - and not unsupposably even only a hospital itself - is dead for minimum 2017-2018.

I guess that legomilk's info about an ambulance now has to be rephrased into CG.

The only set in which I might be interested in would be a coast guard station since there hasn't been a decent one since the mid-90s.

And six sets means supposably: 1. CG jetski and surfer to rescue, 2. CG starter set, 3. CG car with small boat, 4. CG heli with small boat to rescue, 5. big CG boat with small boat to rescue, 6. possbily a CG station with some smaller boats and a car.

 

60169 very supposably will be the yearly advent calendar and 60143 a small exclusive Police set.

That leaves room for 10 more sets. Maybe one or two Exclusives? So there could be another whole theme with 6 sets - hopefully Harbor - and additionally two civilian sets?

@Klaus-Dieter Like you said, ten sets still have no designation. That could be a Hospital theme, right?

 

And frankly the last few hospital themes have only bee n2-3 sets. You have a hospital, ambulance, helicopter, and maybe boat (If that doesn't cut into Coast Guard), there just really isn't that much you cn do with the theme.

Theoretically yes.

The problem with a hospital and even more with a "whole" hospital theme is that it would concurate with the CG theme because both is emergency stuff. Many people would either buy these are those sets (or parts from here and there). That's even the reason why TLG doesn't /  didn't release Harbor and Airport the same year or Arctic and Deep Sea Exploration or regular Police and Swamp Police.

Hospital is white and red while CG is orange and blue, so I don't think that would work. I see it being they release another ambulance, they might have a small boat to tie into the boat theme of next year, and then just have the hospital set itself.

I wish they would mix the themes a little. They used to have police stations on the beach and still have CG. As long as we get another hospital that's not on a hill I'll be happy.

I think CG is my least favorite City theme...:hmpf_bad:

The only theme I don't have for my city is farm. :cry_sad: At least there was a barn in that mill village raid set... There has only been the brown and white cow recently. No white and black cow.

What would A Forest theme look/be like? Lego made forest police and fire sets and the swamp sets are kind of similar.

I have a couple of RES-Q sets. I liked them when i was a child (especially the hovercraft), but now, i think the color scheme is not so nice.

What i would like with the Coast Guard theme is a Beach theme. I would like surf, boat repair shop, yacht, marina ... Lego could replace the City Square (60097) with a big set like this and add a Fun At The Beach set with lot of people! It would be a nice addition for the Coast Guard theme and will fit perfectly with the Beach Hut (31035) and the Light House (31051) ;)

I'd love too see some civilian sets like a butcher, baker or blacksmith but I think this a bit more castle like than city. I wouldn't mind coast guard sets and as you say, we realy need a new decent coast guard station but I wouldn't be intrusted in small rescue boats because we already get so many of these. I suspect 60169 and 60143 will be as you said as we usually seem to get these. I would realy like farm to return for the remaining 10 sets but I don't think this will cover all 10 sets so there is a possibility we could get a medical theme and a hospital as well as a good exclusive set, but as you mentioned there are many more exiciting/new concepts we could have instead. However, we realy need an ambulance that actualy looks like one because all existing ones seem to look very cramped and small. I hope you appreciate my thoughts.

What about trains?

No City nor Creator trains were released in 2016. I know there are 3 trains on the shelves now, but :

60052-1: Cargo Train and 60051-1: High-Speed Passenger Train have been released 3 years ago. 

- The last 60098-1: Heavy-Haul Train is not very exciting (2015 released).

 

10219-1: Maersk Train10194-1: Emerald Night and 10233-1: Horizon Express were such great trains! :classic: I would like to get another train, maybe something like Lego did in the past with the Santa Fe sets (10133-1: Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Locomotive10020-1: Santa Fe Super Chief) or with a new "My Own Train" line using advanced building techniques. :wink:

Not true, there was a Creator train released a few months ago, 10254 Winter Holiday Train. Also generally trains are discussed in the Train Tech forum.

Yes but it is not the kind of train i am talking about. As it has been said somewhere else, it is a winter village set which happen to be a train and not a real train for me = it is not a cargo nor a passenger train. Not a good set for a regular city ;) Hope you understand what i mean :)
