HomerJSimpson Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Huh? Arctic supply plane? When did this get announced? It was at the fair where the icebreaker was first seen. There are some pictures on google, but there are more on flickr. Quote
Echo Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 It was at the fair where the icebreaker was first seen. There are some pictures on google, but there are more on flickr. I don't know how I missed that. It looks great. Quote
AncientDayz Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 Could you take a picture of both sides of the plane box? Thanks. Well, apparently my wife doesn't know the difference between a plane and a helicopter ...ugh! Lol! In her defense, she doesn't collect Lego, and she had a crying two-month old child with her. She knew I wanted a plane and didn't know there was a helicopter so I guess she just assumed in the chaos that the box was it. Oh well! Looks like I will still be looking for those pictures and the box like all the others - sorry! Quote
escortmad79 Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 The only way I'll buy one of those Arctic crawler trucks is for me to convert it into a construction vehicle. I must be the only one here who isn't into this new subtheme. You're not alone LT, aside from the huskies, I'm not interested Quote
lightningtiger Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 You're not alone LT, aside from the huskies, I'm not interested Yep, apart from that large copter, the dogs and modifying one of those tracked trucks to a construction vehicle.....the Arctic sub-theme is a bust for me ! Quote
Dhivael Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) I know this is a big ask, but could/would a moderator move the pictures to the first post? or at least a link to the right page? Or at least going forward? I love the conversation, but it's often hard to find what I'm looking for... Beyond the Arctic sets (and trains), is there anything else is coming in Summer '14? Not that my wallet wants there to be. That's all I've seen thus far? Edited May 14, 2014 by Dhivael Quote
ZO6 Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 I picked up the new Arctic Base Camp yesterday and built it earlier. I really like this set. It feels like such a complete package - there are so many different vehicles (plus enough figures to man everything), and the base itself is quite nice. Pushing around the big tractor feels great - it balances on a rubber tire which is connected to the treads, so it rolls around super smoothly. There is a lot of room inside the base, but a large section is taken up as a parking spot for the snowmobile. I'm going to pull out the tiles for the parking spot and turn that half of the room into a sleeping area with some other accessories. Quote
Fritzy Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 I'm going to pull out the tiles for the parking spot and turn that half of the room into a sleeping area with some other accessories. Sounds like a good idea. I'd be curious to see the results whenever you're willing to share. Quote

NEILLOFT Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 equally I don't recall seeing an airline promo set this year, first time in many years I think Yes most of the Airlines that normally Stock this are still selling 4473 Police Helicopter! Such a dissapointment - its my fave release! Wish they would bring back the Airline own branding Stickers such as the Air 2000 aircraft back in the 90s! Quote
Mr. Elijah Timms Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Just built the Arctic HeliCrane.... Yeah, only 262 pieces and the scale is still waaaaay off, but I must say, it's pretty big. The fuselage is a bit thin and flimsy, but I like it! And the sled dogs are EPIC. TRULY ADORABLE!! Quote
talos Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 My local TRU didn't have anything new yet, only the Ultra Agents Mission HQ was new far as I could tell..I should of figured LOL, I never go to that store usually... Quote
ZO6 Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Did a really quick mod of the interior of the base camp. There is a lot of room when you pull out the tiles that the snowmobile parks on, so you could easily add just about what ever you want. I added two bunk beds and a long dinner table down the middle.

Maniac4Legos Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 New City Repair Lift polybag available at TRU http://m.toysrus.com/skava/static/product.html?type=TRU_product_us&url=%2Fproduct%2Findex.jsp%3FproductId%3D34926106&domain=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.toysrus.com Play well, Maniac4Bricks :) Quote
Boettner Builds Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 My local TRU has all of the Artic theme but not the Ice Breaker. I can't wait until TRU has BOGO on City sets Quote
Faefrost Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 My Lego store had the new Trains and some of the Arctic sets. They said they should have most of the Arctic available later in the week. But they did not know if the Icebreaker would be with the delivery. They have not seen that one yet. Have any Icebreakers or Cargo planes been spotted in the wild? Quote
Legoman123 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Great little mod. I really love the set but I was just disappointed with the lack of an interior, so I think I may use your idea. Quote
Legoaholic Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I saw set 60064 with a plane in my local Lego store on friday, and the ship one 60062, if these are the ones you are referring too, as well as the other ones. I'm in the UK. Sure of the set numbers as i took photos. Quote

Legoaholic Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 OK hopefully i've uploaded the photos and linked them successfully. Quote
just2good Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Thanks for the pics! Not a fan of the plane, looks like it will be pricey, too. Quote
scottwb2010 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 OK hopefully i've uploaded the photos and linked them successfully. Saw these in my nearest lego store yesterday and the box art made them so tempting, but have to wait till June as dreaded road tax due this month! Got the 60033 Article Ice Crawler to start my Article theme though. Thanks for the pics! Not a fan of the plane, looks like it will be pricey, too. The price of the 60064 Article Supply Plane is £49.99 in the UK Quote
