LCP Posted December 11, 2020 Posted December 11, 2020 The official name of the product 30569 is referred to in the Promobricks as City Stand or Pop-Up-Store. Quote
Aanchir Posted December 11, 2020 Posted December 11, 2020 16 hours ago, Maple said: Cart is British and Kart is American. Even in America, "kart" is only used to refer to go-karts, which I believe originated as a brand name which became genericized over time. All other types of cart are spelled with a C, including things like shopping carts, luggage carts, serving carts, and mop bucket carts (all of which are usually called "trolleys" in British English — whereas a "trolley" in American English refers to a tram or streetcar).

LCP Posted December 12, 2020 Posted December 12, 2020 Anyway, no matter how you describe the word cart or kart, I think the first thing to do is figure out what the product 60278 looks like. Quote

If it looks like the image that appeared on that catalog, it will include: big building, a police truck, a police helicopter with two rotors and a small getaway car Edited December 12, 2020 by Powered by Bricks Quote

American has a TON of slang that they don't teach. I have Germany family and dated several foreigners and always surprised by the amount of slang used in the language that they don't teach in English class. Quote
The Island Chronicles Posted December 13, 2020 Posted December 13, 2020 Welp! If the winter wave exceeded above and beyond the expectations by a landslide, I only wonder how the summer 2021 wave is going to look like. I know I've got a lot of purchases to make for 2021. Quote

For summer it can be probably a new coast guard subtheme, like other people already said. I wonder if a big airport set comes next summer, I really want one Quote

That can be cool, if they do one, it can use the same design as the passenger airplane and it can look like the first cargo plane ever made in city What do you want for a next cargo airport set @toopizza13? I don't any ideas for other things for a set like that Quote

I hope they bring back the cargo subtheme too with a better cargo truck. Tbh, I wasn't very fond of the truck from 2017. I ended up getting the 2013 cargo truck off of EBay - which in my opinion, is a better truck. My favorite cargo plane ever made by City was the Heliplane from 2013. I'm trying to find a good deal on that one.

Every coast guard wave released by City has been good too. I'm sure this one would be the best. I still have my 2013 coast guard ship which comes complete with a helicopter pad on the front deck. I also have the building from the 2017 coast guard headquarters. 4 hours ago, LCP said: Whatever product is released, I hope the design of the product is released well. What I've been hoping from City for a long time was a subtheme for the public transportation system. So far, we've only had a few sets here and there. But unlike other city jobs, the public transport system hasn't really had own subtheme. We've had a towing subtheme, a medical subtheme, a mail/cargo subtheme, a construction subtheme, a harbor subtheme and an airport subtheme. The there are of course the police and fire subthemes. But we haven't had a subtheme for public transport. As a worker for the public transport system, I can tell you that there are plenty of aspects Lego could touch on (i.e. the different types of bus bodies, the taxi service, bus and train maintenance, employee transport, people movers, gondolas, the rapid transit system, etc). They actually have done some of those indirectly before. Overall, I'm really loving this winter 2021 wave. The cops and firefighters seem to be taking the back seat while the civilian life sets seem to be being brought to the forefront. Then again, maybe that's just me as those are the kinds of sets I go for nowadays. Edited December 14, 2020 by Brandon Pea Quote

Since I first came across Lego City products in 2006, some products related to public transportation have appeared, but I felt a bit sorry. I'm hoping to get products like train car repair shops like World City's 10027. Quote

If I were to get the yellow tram from main square, it'll be a good trolley barn for it. Quote
