lightningtiger Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 Oh, I like the lawn mower......much better than that street sweeper in town square. Quote
Mooch Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 I put together the 60014 Coast Guard Patrol today, and I noticed one of the stickers says "HA 7190" on it. I thought that was odd. I looked up 7190 and it is a Millennium Falcon set from 2000. Quote
tomdobs55 Posted June 2, 2013 Posted June 2, 2013 I think the lawn mower looks pretty good. Great little addition to any city scene. Quote

I looked up 7190 and it is a Millennium Falcon set from 2000. Well, that sounds really odd.....recent stickers have been quoting the correct set number.......can you post an image of this ? Quote
Aanchir Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Well, that sounds really odd.....recent stickers have been quoting the correct set number.......can you post an image of this ? Perhaps it's not a set number, but a date (7/1/90)? Though not sure what date it'd be... Henrik Andersen is certainly older than 23, given how long he's been designing sets, so it can't be his date of birth. Alternatively, perhaps he designed the original Millennium Falcon set, and this is a sort of a "throwback". Quote
just2good Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Erm... what's this? 60031 City Corner Did I miss something? Quote
Rick Posted June 3, 2013 Author Posted June 3, 2013 Erm... what's this? 60031 City Corner Did I miss something? Under notes on Brickset it says "Re-released version of 7641-1." Quote
just2good Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Under notes on Brickset it says "Re-released version of 7641-1." Ah, I didn't see that part. It's very odd that they're releasing it as the City Square is basically the approved version it, with the Pizza and Bike shop. Quote
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Does anyone know where the lawnmower is going to be available? TRU, Lego Stores, or somewhere else? Polys tend to be so random sometimes. Quote
lightningtiger Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 A re-release of the 2009 pizza bar and bike shop.....along with a new pizza bar and bike shop.........yeah, I don't get it Lego....is it because the 2013 version is an exclusive ? I could do with both actually......I could have pizza wars like there was in my city for real back in the 1990's....seriously, pizza bars were being fire bombed and that. Now on the 60026, has anyone seen it in any normal toy/department store yet ? Quote
Cwetqo Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I saw it only at Lego Brand store. I dont have high hopes for it being available at regular shops, because I was waiting for 4207 Garage (which is kind of similar set) and it never became widely available. Regarding re-release of 7641: Maybe they just need City set in that price range (new set is fairly expensive) Quote
sgeureka Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Now on the 60026, has anyone seen it in any normal toy/department store yet ? I saw it at Kaufhof (big general store in Germany), but the price tag said EUR 139.99 instead of the "normal" EUR 99.99 at the LEGO online store. I don't know the reasons for that, but I sure won't pay EUR 40 extra. Quote
PsyKater Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Erm... what's this? 60031 City Corner Did I miss something? Under notes on Brickset it says "Re-released version of 7641-1." Please, let this be true! It's obv. an odd decision, but I'd love to get my hands on 7641. Perhaps they want children make to wish both busses. Quote
Lance Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Wow, it's exactly the same as the 2009 version! I'm wondering why they re-issued it, maybe they wanted more civilian sets? Or perhaps this is a VIP exclusive? Quote
just2good Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Wow, it's exactly the same as the 2009 version! I'm wondering why they re-issued it, maybe they wanted more civilian sets? Or perhaps this is a VIP exclusive? If they're reissuing this set, imagine the possibilities... Modular Legends, here we come! Also, this set was REALLY popular back in the day. Half of the people I knew owned it. Quote
BlueberryWaffles Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) http://www.1000steine.com/brickset/images/60031-1.jpg -Sci MEGABLUCK YES! I wanted this SO bad! Getting it on Day,1! Edited June 4, 2013 by Rick Please don't quote images unnecessarily Quote
just2good Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Talking about the new City Square set, YCF claims (on their Facebook page) to have the set. This will be interesting. How did they get it? I bet it was... a.) They imported it from eBay b.) They imported it from Bricklink c.) They imported it from another online site d.) Some how, somewhere, the set was released early in the United States I think it's one of the first three. Quote
sgeureka Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 60026 has been available in Germany since at least early May, both in the LEGO (online) store as well as in non-LEGO stores. Quote
lightningtiger Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Wait a minute.........and I quote directly from my email received from Lego 4 hours ago...... "Regarding your second question: I am not sure, what you mean here. Did you mean if the set looks similar to 7941 . Basically 60031 City Corner is a complete different set then 7941. The 60031 is still available in our shop online." So what's going on ? Edit - I have sent another email to Lego asking what's going on.......claiming it's still available.....what's still available ? Seriously there must be communications breakdown at Lego ? Edited June 4, 2013 by lightningtiger Quote
Cwetqo Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Lego 60031: http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/File:60031_LEGO_Rolling_Storage_Box.jpg I think that lego support mixed up 60031 and 60026 (which is indeed on sale in germany from at least april 27th - I saw it at lego brand store in munich) Quote
scottwb2010 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Seems very strange that TLG would re-release "City Corner" at the same time as "Town Square" is released when they have shops selling the same items. Looking at the box for the re-release version #60031 the number is not very clear. Does anyone know for sure if its genuine or a hoax? Quote
escortmad79 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Anyone know if the summer wave has hit the Lego stores in the UK yet? Want to pick some up this weekend Quote
lightningtiger Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Total confirmation of 60031 from Lego...... "It looks like set 60031 is a re-release of set 7641. However, I will have to investigate with our Shop@Home department and get back to you as soon as I have an answer. I am really sorry set 60031 is not available to buy in Shop@Home yet. I do apologize for the incorrect information given before." Quote
meyerc13 Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 Apparently the image was pulled from the image cache when you do the LEGO survey from the back of the instruction manuals. My guess is that this is going to turn out to be a false alarm - probably a mock-up done for the new Town Square set as a placeholder that accidentally found its way onto that site. Quote
