I'm not inclined to read through 16 pages to see what's been said already, sorry. So apologies if this has been mentioned already.

I'd really like a dojo set.

[hollisbrick]

Some civilian cars would be cool, even a RV/ caravan would be really kool *y*

[Klaus-Dieter]

That are great ideas, Widdi and Stealth Hunter!

A forest subtheme and a zoo would be great!

And some more police sets would be great, too!

[maiq the liar]

I'd like to see a Town-Plan styled set of a small Rural town...It would include

-A house With swings (minifigs: A mom, a dad and 2 kids)

-Small shop (minifigs: citizen, shopowner)

-A barn W/ Delivery truck and farm (Minifig: Male farmer, female farmer)

-A small shed with a haybale

-A few civilian vehicles

For the record, my inspiration was This marvolous display.

I totally agree with you, dathperson8! These would be great sets - especially the snwoy mountain hotel!

It's very nice to see how much you're interested in this topic and how many great ideas you present us here! Thank you very much! *sweet*

(Since I want now to watch "GSG 9" on TV I'll comment on all the other articles on this site tomorrow evening. I hope that you make excuses for me ;-) !)

Nice Idea Dp8. These would be quite in Line with my older Ideas of the Alpine Subthemes like this one:

Ski lodge

Alpine structure on a white baseplate with two floors and interior (kitchen, restaurant, ski depot, bedrooms upstairs) includes an outdoor area and a wintry rock structure behind it. Includes 5 minifigs (3 skiing/snowboarding tourists, landlord, chef). Price 40€

This makes me think of another one for the Alpine Subtheme winter:

Apres Ski

Larger Set including a "Schirmbar" ( octagonal bar, places, tent-like roof), an alpine style building with two floors (1st. Dancefloor, bar, (2nd. kitchen, restaurant), snow scooter,quad, car (4w+doors), ski depots (outside) and 10 Minifigs (3 skiers, 3 snowboarders, bartender, chef, waiter, DJ) 80€

And not only, because of being a winter lover and skier.

Too bad that this winter sucks here in Southern Germany again: We've had almost no snow below 1000m asl. since early January!!! The only things which remind me of winter and snow were and still are my skiing trips to the Alps in the last weeks, Luckily I'm not that far away.

Skilift-$65, 3-4 foot long mototrized skilift, with 8 baskets (Right word?), some snowstructures (I.E. slopes and jumps) and scenery (Trees, brickbuit and molded) Includes six riders and two operators.

How about a different resort?

Beach Resort-$150 Large buliding on two 32x32 bps, features lobby, working elevator, 5 hotel rooms, cafe/restaurant, arcade/game room, spa, indor and outdoor pools, volleyball net, campfire, beachfront and water. Minifigs-Receptionist, maid (with cart), resturant employee, boss/owner, lifegaurd w/tower and 8 guests (5 adults, 3 children) with suitcases etc.

Casino Resort(This'll go over great :-D )- $75, building on 32x32 bp, Features, 6 slot machines, poker, black jack, etc. tables, hotel w/3 rooms, resturant (buffet), and indoor pool. 14 Minifigs, 3 old ladies ( With reversable "excited" faces, 4 men, 3 women, 1 employee, maid w/cart, chef and owner. Includes (LOTS and LOTs of money pieces (New bills ( $1, $10, $20) and coins (quarters, dimes, nickels)

[Klaus-Dieter]

How promised here my comments to your great ideas for new City sets:

Maybe a ferry for the harbor line

And for the new Coast Guard line maybe a S&R plane PBY type and several mini figs

2 pilot’s 2 observer’s 2-3 ground crew life raft 2 people to be saved

New gas truck with 2 trailers, new hospital

a con air type plane not the sea plane they made ,a car hauler with at lest 5 cars

a new rail repair truck ,More train cars

Space port with 8 wide shuttles, Shuttle transport truck or plane

Private jet, Mall S@H exclusive

Monorail, Cargo depot with truck forklift several buildings

Car dealership

Street painter truck

Better air ambulance, Airport gas truck

Runway plates, a larger cargo ship

Some city pirates or bandits like 6679 but with more mini figs 3-4

Ice-cream shop and truck

S@H subway, Mini fig sets

TV van and helicopter like the outback set, TV station

Bank with armored car, Milk truck

Highway, Steam roller

New 6 wide campers with slide outs and speed boat and trailer

Welcome to EB, LEGOMAN132! That are great ideas!

I especially like the idea of the private jet and the city pirates. That would be brilliant! *y*

And a new big hospital with lots of minifigs would be very nice, too, if it would be similar to that:

Big Hospital

a big hospital including three floors on a "normal" base plate (no hill etc.):

-first floor: two garages with emergency room, a foyer with a revolving door, two or three seats to wait and a reception desk and a little park outside with two park benches and a fountain

-second floor: two sickrooms (one with two beds and one with only one bed but a lot of medical equipment)

-third floor: an operating room with a stretcher, lamps and lots of medical equipment and an anesthetic recovery room with a stretcher/bed and some medical equipment

including an ambulance car, a doctor's car, a lot of medical equipment and medical stuff

minifigs: a doctor, a paramedic, a receptionist, a nurse, a patient, a surgeon and a surgical nurse

I really hope that TLG will release a big hospital with lots of minifigs like the one described here in january 2009 since it is very likely that there'll be a hospital in the beginning of the next year!

I'd really like a dojo set.

Excuse me but what should that be, a dojo set?

That are great ideas, Stealth Hunter!

I, too, would like to have some criminals in my Lego City.

And that would open a whole new City subtheme because you surely don't only want the bad but even the good site - so what about some sets based on special police units like the GSG 9 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSG_9) or the SEK (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezialeinsatzkommando) or the Bundespolizei (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bundespolizei). Things like water cannons or police tanks would be great 8-

A skilift would be a great idea, darthperson8!

That would combine action and high playability elemets (mainly for JFOLs) with Technic elements (JFOLs and AFOLs) and a nice looking landscape (mainly for AFOLs). As a S@H Exclusice I could well imagine it!

And the idea of a Beach Resort and a Casino Resort are perfect! *y*

Yes, I really like(d) the Paradisa theme because it was so lovely designed and included so many nice things like a beach caf

[Stealth Hunter]

I'd buy that, but honestly, it would be more like 30,000 bricks to manage all that and twice the price. It would be a bargain at under $2k, though I don't want to think about the shipping and how much of it they would either leave out or damage on the way... :-|

Ultimate City On! :-P *y*
