Well maybe we will get a Stuntz / farm crossover

I think the cows deserve dual moulding to represent the ‘fleshy’ parts (muzzle & udders) which tend to be in the same colour but also I imagine would be difficult to print. 

@Maple, THIS…. You know, some animals are just updated. I don’t think that cow from 2009 looks great without any pop of pink color on it…. I’m sure different spots would be printed across a body.

Could do a farm / monkie kid / city crossover with the "secret sauce / reactors" in the fire sets, that might have made the bunnies super smart able to build a moon carrot rocket/mech and turned a pig into Pigsy.

I know it's not official "lore" , but crossing over LEGO themes is fun imagination.

I am actually not disappointed it’s a 4+ set, as it may mean the greenhouse is one moulded piece, which could look quite nice, and a chance for some printed parts

I love printed pieces, but it's probably going to be very similar to the Disney farm where the printed pieces are on huge pieces and the greenhouse tiny like the Friends sets.

The carrots flipping out would be one thing, corn flipping out is worrisome to me. LEGO had Nat Geo deep sea sets to teach children. I don't want children thinking corn grows underground.

I'm going to see if my knockoff cows are dual molded but I misplaced them. haha

Do you like the new Fire station (i.e. 60320) or the old Fire station (i.e. 60215) more?

I hesitated and finally skipped 60215 a few years ago but I've got 60320 quickly today without hesitation, the new Fire station has base plates and a better truck, more pieces under the same RRP, no reason to skip this time, no hesitation. The  new Fire station building is probably not as good as that of 60215, but it's still good

I just bought it today, with full intentions of combining it with the last one, just because they both seem similar, to me and both somewhat, incomplete. I will probably use some additional pieces too and make a proper station but for now just make a combo set.

A quad delivering eggs is pretty stupid. But I get LEGO needs quads it sets.
I don't understand "A field where you can grow carrots and corn on the cob(new piece) by flipping them up." What is being flipped up? Corn grows upright already.

It sounds like it's something similar to the flip-up flames in a lot of firefighting sets. The cornstalks would be hidden behind a patch of soil, so with the flip of a lever you can transform a plot of land where corn has only just been planted into a thriving cornfield.

It's certainly not a realistic portrayal of every stage of a corn stalk's growth, but it's the most space-efficient way of simulating those "before" and "after" states with a mechanical function. I don't think it'll be a thing where the corncobs just pop out of the ground as if they were a root vegetable.

I don't think it's that stupid. When I was growing up in the US, farms are one of the main places I'd actually see people owning/using quad bikes (or "ATVs" as Americans typically call them) for anything other than motorsports. It's a useful alternative to a tractor for running errands around a large farm that don't require so much pulling power, like gathering eggs, feeding animals, or inspecting sprinkler heads.

Tbh I’m amazed they don’t have a drone to deliver the eggs, this is Lego City after all.

How about a drone that shoots eggs , drone from 60319: Fire Rescue & Police Chase + egg splat  .

Then again, a custom drone could easily be modified from just the 60315: Police Mobile Command Truck set with the egg splats to begin with.

Best 2022 drone in terms of set is the bank set drone as the suggestion for a minifig to both control and fly holding it while stealing bags of money is a nice one.

I work for farms and the ignorance people have for where their food comes from is frightening to me. So I'm a little more insane when it comes to that. but what you think makes sense and sounds like fun for 4 year olds.

Riding a quad bike on farms is very very common, doing so to harvest eggs would get you a lot of cracked eggs.

Give it 5-10 years. If the USA is still the USA Amazon will be delivering eggs that way.

60344 : The set shows a small chicken coop with a red roof inhabited by 3 white chickens. On the gable is a weather vane made from a golden hen. There's also a small quad bike with crate on the back that the minifigure can use to transport the eggs. 101 pieces.

60345 : Includes a delivery van with a carrot on the roof. A field where you can grow carrots and corn on the cob(new piece) by flipping them up. 3 minifigures and at least 1 white rabbit. 310 pieces.

60346 : The farm has a small greenhouse and a barn with a red roof, in which a tractor is parked. 3 minifigures, cow with black and white spots, new calf, pink pig, new piglet, a sheep, and a new lamb. 230 pieces(4+).

These sound awesome!

As for the animals...I hope the goat people aren't too mad!

Goat people are always mad. It’s part of who they are.

I’m sure they ( and I) would be mad if there is no goat yet! But I still hope have hope for a new goat mold in future. :)

Unless they are goat people who already have goats and see them as a pension investment 🤷🏽‍♂️

[Maple]

Because I was wrong on other things and people have been a bit prickish about that I'm somewhat glad there is no goat so I can say...

Told you so.

Yes, but until then I can rub it in those people's faces like they did to me.

60345 - I was hoping for a more traditional farm truck - flat bed with wood crate siding for hauling hay, but it looks like this will be like the ice cream truck with high cute factor. Corn is cool, and I'll still pick it up.

60344 - sounds good overall quad aside. Could get one or several.

60346 - this could be decent, not that great as a 4+, or an expensive animal parts pack. Really curious honestly.

Personally I did not think the farm sets would include the goat, however I would not be surprised if we get one this year in the 90th anniversary set if that is Castle

Anyway within the next 5 years we will get it for sure (probably sooner than later) , and the way things are going we probably get a kid mould as well

Orrrrrr….Series 23 later this year?

[fo4saken]

And I'm still wondering how 60337 High Speed Passenger Train is going to look like (train itself). Roads as we guess should be added for sure. What they can figure out comparing to the old 60197? New front cockpit mold? What colors they will choose... Is it going to be Powered Up or not... Hmmm....

Yes that could happen if it is some kind of anniversary series. However it is a little bit of a wasted opportunity for Lego to boost sale for the first set with a goat, but maybe they do not think that way
