eurotrash Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 The rumoured prices are in NZ$. And currently the FX rates are: 1 NZ$ = 0.83 US$ 1 NZ$ = 1.00 GBP 1 NZ$ = 0.64 EUR There's also 49.99 - Beach Hut 69.99 - Toy & Grocery Shop In the Creator theme from the same source - those could be interesting....

Hrw-Amen Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Maybe the crooks could wear something other than stripy grey vests/tops. I mean does not that mean they have been caught once and sent to goal only to escape? Surely the bad guys could be wearing something else, maybe one of those masks with just the eyes showing, then a wooly hat like now but other tops and trousers to make them appear less like escaped convicts. If they want to carry on using that current stripy top they could have set where the prisoners are out doing some community work on the chain gang. Then one makes abreak for freedoom and the cops have to chase him (Or her?) which gives room for a motorcycle cop or police peursuit car? Maybe some civilians to knock over as they dash off. Quote
HomerJSimpson Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 (edited) Swamp police.......great we now know that Lego City designers are like me......watch too much A&E ! What's next a family of duck hunters or bounty hunters or besties who repo cars and trucks ? Looking at recent subthemes, forest, mining, even Arctic can all be tied to a A&E series ! Edit - funny those prices sound like what we pay in Australia ? I've been told by a reliable source that dealers won't see the catalogue for next year till September some time. Or maybe Honey Boo-Boo themed sets! Anyway, city was starting to lose my interest but with the swamp police sets, I may have to pick up some, along with the pirates sets. I hope the police have new outfits, that could look really good. I also wonder if the 4x4 with boat is just a generic set, or a swamp police set. But one of my favorite things is that there is only about 4 sets, maybe a few more retailer exclusives, so I may be able to collect them all, without feeling like I'm spending too much $.

CityBuilder Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Racing bike transporter? Didn't we get that in 2012? More of the same vehicles and more police, disappointing but not suprising. Oh well, at leats we have the demolition sets! Also it seems Creator is the only place to get normal buildings now. Quote

lightningtiger Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 I wonder what the swamp police station will look like.......maybe crocs as jail guards ? I can guess the crook hideout is going to be a run down shack/hut on a swamp. Bulldozer sounds like by it's price to be another monster one. Pickup top truck.......yep, A&E again......Lizard Lick Towing ? Lego designers must have a fetish for police sets and towing vehicles ? Quote

I thought the Swamp Police Station would look more like the Forest Police Station, just more swampy-looking. Quote
lightningtiger Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 ANOTHER police station? :( Welcome to the new police state of Legoland ! What's next swamp fire fighters ? Quote

alanyuppie Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 60088 Fire Starter Kit I'm seriously concerned about the safety level of this set. Quote
Roebuck Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I hope the swamp police line will have a new animal mould, like the forest police line had the bear, but most likely it will include crocodiles/alligators if anything To bad it is no return of the farm line in the horizon Quote
jonwil Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I wonder if there will be any helicopters (police or otherwise) in City for 2015. LEGO have had at least one helicopter in the City line for every year since it began as far as I am aware so I am sure they will continue with more helicopters in the City lineup (at least as long as their focus group and marketing efforts continue to show that kids like helicopters) Quote
Dorayaki Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Welcome to the new police state of Legoland ! What's next swamp fire fighters ? Time for Police to get its own theme. Quote

I also have been waiting for the farm. But what I wanted most was construction- getting that now- and an airport. Hopefully the summer will bring a airport theme. Quote
*thomas* Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I'm not a big fan of the police themes, but the forest team was refreshing. Hope the swamp theme won't let us down. Quote
Joebot Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I'm not a big fan of the police themes, but the forest team was refreshing. Hope the swamp theme won't let us down. I'm predicting a whole line of biome-themed police sets. Forest and Swamp police first, then we'll have the obvious Arctic Police. After that, Lake Police, Mountain Police, Desert Police, River Delta Police, Cave Police, Grassy Plains Police, Tundra Police, Fjord Police ... Quote
Moebius118 Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Possible inspiration for the Swamp Police line? Quote

lightningtiger Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) Possible inspiration for the Swamp Police line? Ha, Sgt. Snappy ! At least we get an air boat, but another quad bike......it will sink in the bog ! I wonder if the police will have the same uniforms as the forest police ? Edit - goodie another Creator shops set.....toy & grocery shops......ah, I have some thing to be happy about ! Edited August 28, 2014 by lightningtiger Quote
Mr. Elijah Timms Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Dude, trust me... DO NOT MESS WITH THE FIORD POLICE. ;) I'm interested to see exactly what a Swamp Policeman looks like. Such a strange & random choice, but I'm very curious, & at least it's something different. Forest Police may be hard to top. Quote

After that, Lake Police, Mountain Police, Desert Police, River Delta Police, Cave Police, Grassy Plains Police, Tundra Police, Fjord Police ... Why not? I mean Space Police has done well for them a few times. Hmmm? Castle Police? Shake down the Peasantry for taxes? Pursue yon knave Robin the Hood? Using a medieval helicopter gunship. Quote
