LJD1019 Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Is this a TRU exclusive? don't see it on Amazon or Target. I would be nice if target released it soon with the 20% off city Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randrace Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Only one hot dog bun is included in this set. Gimme those buns, LEGO! The infant is fantastic, and is the jewel of the set. Forty dollars seems steep, all and all. I'm also hoping these get discounted; I need more buns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minifigs are always priced much higher than regular elements. $40 is not a bad price for this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can compare it with this LEGO Education set: http://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Education-Community-Minifigures-4598355/dp/B0085Y3MTO. $55 for 22 minifigs. Sometimes goes on sale for $44 though. Roughly same price per minifig when not on sale ($2.50 vs $2.80). Edited May 24, 2016 by Phil B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkbait Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 I picked this up last week from TRU with 20% coupon+10%TRUTH+Tax for $30.60.

thoroakenfelder Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 It's a very PC set isn't it. All of the talk about "LEGO made a wheelchair finally" has filtered into the public consciousness. I think it's a great set especially for city builders and diversity of design is always welcome, but I think it may have gotten a pre-release boost like the Female scientists.

I apologize if I insulted you. As far as my PC comment goes, it refers to the fact that LEGO decided after 50 years of production, 30 years of minifigures and I have no idea how many sets to feature someone in a wheelchair and use that as a selling point to all the self congratulatory people who feel inclusive now that they have a kid in a wheelchair minifigure. It should be insulting that they never included one before or that it is being touted as revolutionary or interesting. It should be insulting that mainstream media swooped in on it and celebrated that it's here instead of decrying that it never existed before. It's PC because now high minded consumers can feel inclusive, you know, except all the other things that are excluded. I feel like it should have been introduced sort of apologetically "Sorry it took us so long." instead of "Now with added wheelchair!" Maybe I misspoke. But I feel like the prerelease media that touted how exciting it is to include a wheelchair is the same thing that took away from the message of the research scientists. Finally women are shown in the sciences instead of "Look we are showing how inclusive we are!" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lego specifically made them yellow to remove race from the equation of minigifures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until they made the Basketball minifigures and they said "Hey, Shaquille O'Neal's not yellow." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
