Ack. I am interested in the Police uniform this time around - airs kinda on the casual side.

Looks like a breakaway cell again.

How creative.............

So it is basically going to be the same tired design with maybe a few more BURP pieces for the rock and perhaps a cool new animal mold thrown in to try and compensate for the rest of the blandness.

Here's a thread about and picture of my 2018 puma/mountain lion. At least, that's what I've been told I have by EBers in the know. 

I haven't posted the picture here because I'm not sure if posting the same picture in two threads is allowed according to EB rules. If it's confirmed to be OK, I'll re-post the picture.

Don't forget the net launcher!

Just the catalog preliminaries.

Do you know where I can find those?

Aww, the police station will be built into rock? That doesn't sound promising . . I was hoping that the Mountain Police Station might, with a few changes and some extra snow, be put into my Winter Village as the local arm of the law (yes. I was excited about a police station. You may expect the apocalypse now.), but if it's literally built into the side of a mountain . . . that's sounds not very promising. :( But, on the bright side, the world isn't ending.

Auto garage (car maintenance)

Mail van

Fun at the zoo

Anything with new animal mounds would be good (please no “Fun at the Dog Pound”), and while it would be nice if Lego continued the theme, I’m not sure exactly what it would entail...

Kid carrying balloons

Kid wearing animal mask (new mould/repurposed head from CMF animal costume)

Selection of zoo animals (new lion, couple of monkeys)

Zoo keeper (with high-callibre rifle to take care of all the loose animals given the lack of pieces for enclosures...)

 

Hmmm yeah maybe it could work!

Well, how about "Fun at the Dog Park" instead? Such a set would not only feature all new recolors of existing dog molds, but potentially new ones also. 

But, I guess such a set may seem too similar to 2016's "Fun at the Park".

[sebitsena]

Or Fun at the faiground to go well with the Creator Expert Coaster ...

A Fun at the zoo set means some animals, which are quite expensive if released with the same number of minifigures. So TLG could sell it at a higher price but i don’t think TLG will go this way. I think TLG will keep 15 minifigures with little builds. So a Fun at the fairground set sounds better ;) But maybe we will ger something else : Fun at the ski resort, Fun at the carnival, Fun at the party, Fun at the mall ...

[Roebuck]

Well the "park" had only one animal (dog), in the "beach" on the other hand they had increased it to five (dog, parrot, lobster, fish and dolphin). The reason I believe is that Lego did not want to take too big chances with the first set before they see if it is popular, much like the early CMF..

They could easily included e.g. a pigeon, crow, squirrel and a deer in the "park". Now they know they are popular so they will probably include more new moulds (hopefully some of them are animals) in the sets to come. I think the "fun" sets are our best chance for a pigeon at least, looking forward to see the next one in a few months

At last a set to go along with this, which has been somewhat "lonely" :

[NotMegalodon]

Still wish i got that one. But i guess choices were made.

[Fenghuang0296]

Whoa. I don't remember seeing that. What year was that from? And what was it called?

I used the translator..? Black animal which can smell badly when it is in a dangerous situation..

But the skunk is already made in CFM series 15 Animal Control Officer so maybe it's just a new print of that same skunk mould?

Lost in translation, that can happen

Is it this animal:

It is as @makoy say already released in a CMF, but anyway it is interesting that they will have it in the first normal set? I had no luck finding it in a new set on brickshelf..

[Sir von Lego]

Oh yes, forgot that. The advertising said new, ...?
