whung Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 Well after some excitement about this awesome news I need to comment in the whole list . First of, I am surprised that there are such small list of some themes like Technic which just have 2 sets . Also Creator seems to pass a year with a few sets. The City line really intriges me cause of the strange selection of the TLC, normally they choose a whole selection of sets which are of the same class. Now in this selection they have a Camper, a Garage, an Air Turbine Vehicle , this actually doesn´t make sense at all , but whatever this sounds like good sets. I enjoy to see that PM are getting more sets that can actually make justice to the theme . And why Pirates just get the advent calendar? I just extract the new sets mainly in the second half of 2009, so the list is not all sets in whole year. There are already 6 Technic sets in the first half of 2009, which are much more than previous years. Therefore it is not strange that there are fewer new Technic sets in the second half of 2009. Same case in Creator. There are already 8 Pirates sets released in early 2009, not only the calendar. But I am curious is anyone mentioned that there will be new train system in 2009, but there is no any news yet.
LEGOMAN132 Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 City7638 Tow Truck 7639 Camper 7641 City Corner 7642 Garage 7686 Helicopter Transporter 7687 LEGO® City Advent Calendar 7747 Wind Turbine Transport 8402 Sports Car Star WarsPower Miners 8707 Boulder Blaster 8708 Cave Crusher 8709 Underground Mining Station 8962 Crystal King 8963 Rock Wrecker 8964 Titanium Command Rig Apart from 8956-8961, these are the rest, which 8708 and 8709 are new finds. These sound cool but the 7747 Wind Turbine Transport sticks out the most maybe it will go under the farn sub theme?
legomilk Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 There is something city known for new trains. to shop at home comes from 1 ge I heard. so if somebody knows something more
Klaus-Dieter Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 Thank you very much for the list of the new sets, whung! The new City and SW OT sets sound really promising! I can't wait to see pics! The wind turbine transporter is the same one as Vestas and is almost the same as of the Vestas Shangai airport exhibition. Already seen a pic of it Thank you very much for that information, Lord Santos! Great to hear that there'll be the same turbine for us available like for the Vestas employees and customers - only that it's really a shame that we won't be aible to get the little lovely cottage and the great service vehicle which came with the promo version . There is something city known for new trains. to shop at home comes from 1 ge I heard. so if somebody knows something more Thank you very much for that information, legomilk! That sounds good that the new train set will be a City set and not again only a train-building-set like the boring Hobby Train some years ago! Klaus-Dieter
UsernameMDM Posted December 21, 2008 Posted December 21, 2008 WOW! That is fantastic news! Hopefully Lego will learn their lesson with the Castle Advent Calendars and release the Pirates calendar worldwide.
Wout Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 I'm not so sure about this. In my opinion they should just add more elements that appeal to girls in the themes. It's rather sexist to think that girls will only play with stuff that's pink (although because I work with little children, I know that this unfortunately applies to many little girls). What I'm talking about is more female minifigs in general (and this seems to be the direction the sets are heading, too), more peaceful sets like restaurants and shops to the City theme, and more animals and vegetation and such here and there. There are other things that children - both girls and boys - can play with and build besides cars and siege weapons and gigantic mecha-robots, you know? (lot of Text) Hmm, what was my point again? Oh yeah, they shouldn't recreate Paradisa as it's own theme again, just input those elements that were present in that theme to other themes. I think that the new Farm theme does this well, by the way, since it has elements that appeals to both boys (farming machines) and girls (taking care of animals). Hear! Hear! Actually from what I read in the shopownerscatalogue, the set with horsetrailer was exactly dedicated to attract girls. (and no pink piece in it ) I find it very nice that we already have confirmed 3 female minifigs in normal citysets for the 2009 when it was the last years special when there was 1 female in the whole year. I'm also happy with the pirates advent calender, the most Star wars sets and the second half city sets. Waiting for pics of City corner (maybe a low budget version of Cafe Corner?)
5150 Lego Posted December 23, 2008 Posted December 23, 2008 Wow, what a list! Lets get started!... Space Police5969 Squidman's Escape 5970 Freeze Ray Frenzy 5971 Gold Heist 5972 Container Heist 5973 Hyperspeed Pursuit 5974 Galactic Enforcer 5979 Max Security Transport 5980 Squidman's Pitstop 8399 K9-Bot 8400 Space Speeder Apart from 5969-5974, there are 2 more sets 5979 and 5980, also 2 impulses 8399 and 8400. While i'm not a huge space fan, its nice to see space police make a come back! Looking forward to some pics! !Creator 6751 Fiery Legend 6752 Fire Rescue 6753 Highway Transport 6754 Family Home Looking forward to highway transport Though i am curious about the fire rescue. Indiana Jones7195 Ambush In Cairo 7196 Chauchilla Cemetery Battle 7197 Venice Canal Chase 7198 Fighter Plane Attack 7199 The Temple of Doom ™ The fighter plane attack sounds promising. I'm thinking a WWII fighter plane such as a Spit Fire or Mechersmitte 109 (sorry i know i spelt that wrong) Racers8169 Lamborghini Gallardo LP 560-4 8182 Monster Crushers 8183 Track Turbo RC 8184 Twin X-treme RC 8185 Ferrari Truck 8186 Street Extreme Very curious about the Ferrari truck. Maybe an updated Scudieria Hauler! Technic8258 Crane Truck 8265 Front Loader Damm. Was hoping for somthing a little different for the late 09 flag ship for techinc. Although i have to say, i love cranes, so i guess i'm not to disapointed. Front Loader... Not sure how many versions of a front Loader you can have, but i'll with hhold full judgment till i see pics. Power Miners8707 Boulder Blaster 8708 Cave Crusher 8709 Underground Mining Station 8962 Crystal King 8963 Rock Wrecker 8964 Titanium Command Rig The Command rig sounds promising! If i get any set in this theme, this will probbly be it! Oooh, I don't think we have! Although I agree with you. A dynamite catapult, while dynamite [no joke intended] for sales to the 'target audience', isn't a very good idea. Com'on now. How is this any differnt than Flick fire missles or bombs in Starwars? It looks like a good set but a dynamite launcher doesn't really fit in with Power Miners. But it is a good way to get the new dynamite piece. Real miners regularly use dynamite to blast there way through tunels and mountains, so i would say this set fits in nicly with this theme.

Klaus-Dieter Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 A quick question: Does someone know or can imagine if at all and if yes, which Factory set(s) we might get in 2009? After the S@H pol of this year's early summer l I'd say that some/one Western set/sets is/are imo very supposable - but not in 2009 since there is already the new Pirates theme. What do you think? Klaus-Dieter
baby Posted December 27, 2008 Posted December 27, 2008 Not sure if this gallery has been posted. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=358870 More new 2009 CITY theme LEGO. Looks great though, but too blurry, still is better than nothing.

What do you think? Klaus-Dieter I am suspecting whether LEGO should continue releasing Factory sets. Nearly every Factory set will be half price sale in shop@home very soon after release, except 10190 (only because it's a modular house) Edited December 27, 2008 by whung

legomilk Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 10199 http://www.hispalug.com/foro/index.php?topic=5984.0 the question is this set of real or fake. I think fake but who really knows the answer to that
CF Mitch Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 (edited) I believe I have seen that before, probably on Brickshelf. I think it was a MOC so.... Would be cool if it was real though Greetings, CF W Edited December 28, 2008 by CF WeaZZel

I think fake but who really knows the answer to that Its fake, I think remember seeing that MOC on another LEGO Forum. I find it hard to believe. The MOC wouldn't be easy to make a set out of. Ahhh, Sinner beat me to it.
WhiteFang Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 I don't think that will be something to be released by TLG based on the sheer scale and design. Perhaps, I am wrong on this.

The Cobra Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 Oops... I edited that post. Or just do click here.
The Rancor Posted December 28, 2008 Posted December 28, 2008 Wow! Some very clear pics there. Thanks. I wonder why I can't see any Power Miners?
