2014 Friends Sets - Rumours and Discussion

[Redhead1982]

The Vespa/Scooter will definitely be one of my favourites. I was considering the Brickforge for a while, but never had the guts to go with non-Lego product. All in all, I think the Friends line will bring lots of interesting new bits and pieces.

They must have been inspired by Brickforge's scooters.

Or they could be an updated version of FABULAND scooters.

[Gryphon Ink]

My Friends all want scooters now. I hope the official version is as cute as that Brickforge piece.

Most important: one set (the lemonade stand, if I remember correctly) comes with something like this:

That's probably the most exciting LEGO news I've had this year. I hope we eventually get it in a large range of colours. Even if it's all pastel friends colours it would still be quite appropriate for the real thing. Not that I have a little obsession for LEGO motorbikes going on

If we get a lime green one I could make an Australia Post MOC depicting the new postie bike we're getting.

Oh, this is very exciting! I can't wait to see the pictures.

[Klaus-Dieter]

Thank you all very much for the furhter information and detailed description of the sets!

I'm excitied about the beach house, the bar and the lemonade stand. Hopefully regular (meaning non-Friends) minifigs can drive on the scooter, too. It's time for pics - I'd say.

Here's the 2014 penguin

And here are some pictures LowLUG member "rob" posted on their forum. The bags of assorted pieces come from the Skaerbaek event.

Ah Sweet! The penguin is likely one of the few Friends animal series that I will also be getting for myself. "I shall hug him and cuddle him and call him Tux."

I can't wait to see the pics for the other stuff, or for that matter, the new Friends-style Disney Princess line.

[kermit]

I like that penguin. It does seem a little big though.

[escortmad79]

Yay!! The penguin looks like a normal animal & not the usual oversize head mutant freaks we usually get with the Friends line!

[Haltiamieli]

Wow, that penguin looks surprisingly good. The eyes are cutified, of course, but the shape doesn't look that bad. That might become the first Friends Animal bag that I buy for the animal, not the pieces!

That is a cute penguin, it looks like it could fit in the Modular petshop.

[kermit]

That penguin looks even better for a zoo.

[Ajax]

Yay! Can't wait to add some penguins to my zoo. I'm so glad they don't look stupid, they are big but Emperor penguins are big.

[CM4Sci]

Perhaps the little scooter in the back is what's coming!

[Cwetqo]

Yeah, thats it.

[SheepEater]

Hey! Is that the new restaurant modular? It looks awesome

So do the scooter, btw

It looks like they cleverly designed the scooter so it can hold both minifig and minidoll handlebars.

[Bricknblue]

Not only that but the kickstand is also a bucket handle. It's a very nicely designed piece.

[Gryphon Ink]

Great, now we can make Quadrophenia MOCs. Seriously, I love that scooter. Hope it comes out in multiple colors soon.

Not he but She is a very lucky girl :), my girlfriend !!

Those penguins are cute. Wonder if there is going to be a Friend's bowling ball.

One of the better friends animals, but still to cute to use in the city setting

I see from the set list that it will be at least a lamb and tiger as well, which is rather frustrating. It is one thing that the duplo series has the whole Noah's Ark, but the friends series are popping out new animal moulds at a fast rate as well. Animals we need in city, castle and pirates, but are way too cute to use in more “realistic” settings.
