Perhaps that would match with this year 60282 Fire Command Unit at some visual point. Shame there is no such analogue set with medical stuff. BRO!!!!! I've been wanting a revival of the medical subtheme since the one from 2006 was killed off. Quote

Man, this made me do a Brickset search, I'm shocked we've never had a medical subtheme since then, if you can even really consider that a subtheme (three sets, two of which were $10 or less). I absolutely adore that Ambulance still, but it's crazy to me that Hospital/Medical has had a total of 12 sets officially, plus a medical plane that was an airline promotion, but three of them are polybags, so it's essentially only nine sets. The only ones with weaker representation, in my opinion, are farm and harbor. Everything else that has fewer sets is a relatively new theme, and thus has had a lot of representation lately, or something like Swamp Police or Forest Fire. Somehow, it's been ten years since the last harbor subtheme (we've had a couple of boats since, but no cargo harbor) and twelve since the last farm subtheme, we got the combine transporter and the tractor this year, but that's it. Even construction, looking at the 2005-2009 sets, those were fantastic, you had fairly large construction sites, stuff like the semi truck with a bridge, XXL crane, large dump trucks and bulldozers, rollers, et cetera. We do still at least get stuff, but it's more in the vein of a small-moderate size vehicle or two each year, nothing on the scale of the older subthemes. Clearly the subthemes they have, being very story/character-based, seem to resonate a lot with their target audience, which is good, but I do miss the City that I grew up with. Quote
jonwil Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 The last hospital we got was in 2018 and I think that's the best looking hospital they have produced in the City line (and a great source of parts for anyone doing a MOC hospital as well). That year also gave us an awesome looking red and yellow rescue helicopter. Quote

Both of those are like THE BEST hospitals I have ever seen from Lego. Edited March 28, 2021 by Poodabricks Quote

Lion King Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Well, March is drawing to an end in a few days. I cannot help myself but I’m excited for Wildlife Rescue sets’ official images (i know i said it before, sorry!!). Speaking of Wildlife Rescue, there is a leaked picture of a reptilian egg that it looks like it has been hatched. I dunno if it’s going to Wildlife Resuce set or Jurassic World or Harry Potter (a baby Norbert but I highly doubt about it). That egg probably would be a baby crocodile inside it if it goes to City. EDIT: I forgot to mention one more thing - there is a leaked picture of a barn owl. I have no idea which set it would be included. Edited March 28, 2021 by DBlegonerd7 Quote
Lion King Posted March 30, 2021 Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) Hey folks! There is a leak - it’s a new mold for lion cub! Boy, I’m excited about animals! EDiT: Ninja’d Edited March 30, 2021 by DBlegonerd7 Quote

Now I’m waiting for a maned lion figure... and Yes, that lion cub will be in 60301. Not sure about polybag or 60307 but we will see. Quote

fo4saken Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Crooks Hideout replica haha 😛 Btw, I hope this polybag magazine medical stuff will be some kind of forecast for maybe 2022 winter wave medical subtheme 🧐 Quote
LCP Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CNEkc7fpY6B/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link I think the theme of the hospital should come out soon. Quote
fo4saken Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 I wish........ some kind of medium medical center, the ambulance and the new roads included set hell yeah 🤧 Quote
LCP Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 I don't think it'll be bad if new roadblocks are combined into the hospital building.I think it's going to be like 60278. Quote
Lion King Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 Medical subtheme would be very nice to collect for our town layout! I would love to see ambulance, small clinic, hospital, and it. Should some include some minifigures with masks (health care workers and patients) and some interesting pieces like a pregnant female minifigure (a new mold, of course). Of course, it’s my pure wishlist... Quote
JamesBenjamin Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) So the other day I was in Target and found 4 copies of a "Legoland" set that was about $15 I think, and it had a few little game stands or snack stands or something. It was register locked saying it was for sale on 4/11. I've been poking about and haven't seen these listed anywhere, but perhaps i'm not looking in the right place. Are they being discussed here on EB anywhere? It looked like a new theme, I think the box was mostly yellow and the rest was either red or blue (I don't recall). It looked similar in style to that Legoland water park that is well known. Edited March 31, 2021 by JamesBenjamin Quote

May have been for 4/1, I'll see if they have it on the shelf tomorrow. Quote
Lion King Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 It’s April now. I’m hoping to see some official images soon or I would be very crazy if I have to wait little longer. Waiting kills me... Quote
