But you can't deny that we do live in a judgemental world. I can see why Powered By Bricks would feel a little funny. 

Yesterday a little girl was screaming badly in the Duplo section of a toy shop because her mum refused to buy her the set she wanted. It was the first time ever I saw a girl, rather than a boy, screaming for a Lego set. She really cried badly with red eyes and real tears, I was at the same time looking at the 60302, who was to be judged? I believe no one was looking at me but quite some many people were already looking at them.

I am not sure if I understand your point from here. I mean Duplo theme is for both girls and boys. Like there is Mickey & Minnie set in Duplo and Jurassic World in it as well. 

And I think a young girl had impulse upon seeing a set on an eye-level shelf. So - her mom refuses buying for some reason, such as “I an’t afford” stuff. Who knows… 

But you are older than that girl - noting’s wrong with getting City sets. I agree with @Poodabricks - we indeed live in a judge mental world. I would understand that people looking at us, AFOLS, getting children’s building sets.

I just bought another set today, when I get crazy, I could buy one box set every day for a month

Does anyone know if the crocodile appears in set 60067 is identical to the one appears in set 60302?

Same mould, different colour. The one in 60302 is ‘normal’ green, rather than the dark green

Are you sure about the color difference?

Same mould different color, I own 60070 and 60162 and looking at both crocodiles I can clearly see that 60302 is less darker

Wow thanks for the new information

Then I won't sell out the crocodile in 60067. At first I thought they were identical

If I'm right there's 2 versions of crocodiles, but there's one more version that doesn't appear in any city sets

Wow, what is that????

How many versions of Lego moulded crocodile?

The original came in green, dark green and dark grey (have also seen it in brown, but that version is only in Billund). The updated mould we have now come in dark green, green and tan. In this years Marvel CMF the first juvenile mould came (with slightly odd blue eyes) and there is a printed egg that can be anything, but in 60302 is a crocodile egg :wink:

Outside Lego City, there was one in Hidden Side set - it was recolored different from normal one in Wildlife Rescue set (60302).

If you want that lioness, it’s a best way is to find the element ID# in building instrument. I should be available in digital buidling instrument on Lego Shop at Home. Just go to Safari Off-Roader and click on “Building Instrument” then you should see that element ID#. Element ID# is more easy and specific rather than use the standard big cat form (tiger, mountain lion, Jaguar, etc…). 

Here is Element ID#:6287660. However, please note: it’s currently out of stock, according to Brick and Parts. In that case, you may like to go to Bricklink and purchase that lioness figure. 

Now - When it comes to part number/element ID#, you can post your questions in this thread:

Today's new purchase. Guess what it is? Someone here was right, Quite some people were staring at me when I brought this big Lego outer box around in the city. But I'm happy!

Well, I don’t have any best guesses. Currently, BnP shows $0.00 under that lioness figure and it’s still out of stock.

you can buy it off BrickLink website.

The Lioness can usually be ordered by calling customer service directly. It might even be in stock now, as it has never shown up as in stock in the online shop (b&p). In Germany it costs about 7.25 €.

Just want to take advantage of this thread by sharing some of my thoughts, 

I really miss 60204. When it hit to the lowest point $60 in mid 2019, I didn't get it because it was just too bulky in size and I wanted to wait a bit longer to clear up the useless things home and shortly afterwards it retired silently and now the lowest price I can get here is three-times $180.

However, sometimes when I get one set that I like immediately with the price I believe to be lowest, it could hit another lower point, especially for the middle-sized set e.g. 60283, 60280, 60220, 60221 etc... it could sometimes hit

even lower than the cost I predicted, and pay 30-40% more for one set.

Maybe you'll say it is just life, it's perfectly normal, but in the long run, I just don't feel good.

How would you predict the lowest price of a Lego set? If you are experienced.

A Speed Build of 60294 has popped up! 

So basically the truck can carry each minifigure included, the clown minifigures has a double expression (happy/scared), the ramps are not a single piece. 

As for the motorbikes, those are quite powerful, and the trailer's play feature actually works! 

I'm excited to see how the 60295 monster trucks work

The ramps are two pieces, correct? The main portion of the ramp and the thin "lip" plate where it meets the ground?

I'm slightly interested in the latter and how/whether the slope at the top of it can can join to other slopes or curved slopes. Both parts could make for interesting new roofing styles. Slight concave slopes of that sort have not been that common in Lego, compared to the convex curved slopes that have become very common in the past few decades.

Thanks for the info. I've watched it and it seems it will be quite good set. The 'american style' truck could be easily used in normal city if we remove front grill monster teeth tho, it is huge but I totally like it. This set, Stuntz set I mean seems to be really playable for kids. I'm waiting for the arena set, how the monster trucks are build (suspension).
