But thats actually not the background info that I would be looking for.. I thought that after 3 yrs they could keep at least their RRP price after retirement.

Arctic theme is a classic example of lego investing. The plane and the little ski bike were winners, the boat is OK and the rest are turds so selling the whole range means amortising the cost of the turds against the winners. Much better just to have focused on the 3 decent sets but that plane was not so easy to find.

Now they will all take a hit as the new sets are very similar.

Big USP is that 60194 is intergrated with Lego Boost.

This has got to be LEGO just trolling all the helicopter hate.

That mammoth is really awesome. Too bad that the rest of the set is a bit meh. Really like the idea of uncovering these frozen extinct animals. Have the research base of the last series and am very happy these keep to the same color scheme.

I will probably just bricklink the animals and buy the starter pack for the figs.

LEGO is playing the same game with City and Jurassic World now as with the Super Heroes theme: putting an exclusive animal into each larger set to sell all the stupid vehicles.

Will we see the hospital in this wave?

I wonder what would happen (hypothetically) if their marketing dpt gave away some (time limited) promo: buy the entire serie products - and get 35 % OFF!..

That snow cap piece is quite good; means I am ever closer to making a Fargo MOC.

861 parts and 13 mini figs including the baby and the skeleton.

Another set adding to my buy list at discount . Will probably need to buy 3-4 to make it modular size and get multiple ambulances.

Speaking of people pack, I thought this new people pack is pretty awesome compare to the beach one. A perfect set to go with with the Camper RV 60182.

Yea, I’m a little disappointed, I really wanted it to be twice as big. Oh well, I guess we’ll have multiples.

and with all those multiples, you can finally get around to the helicopter tour company MOC you've been waiting to cross off your build bucket list.

i think the people pack with people rafting, racing bikes, climibing, cooking over propane tank and taking selfies while mountain climibing this is clearly meant to be paired with the hospital as the  Future Patient People Pack.

that red tent is awesome .

I probably have enough for that already.
