   Steven,



Speaking of Lime Green Fire Engines, I’d love to see one from TLG too. But until they make one, you can check out this pic of my Lime Green Fire Engine. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=3275744


There are lots of departments that have lime fire trucks, but Lego hasn’t given us the parts to make them. In addition, almost all airport fire departments have their rigs in lime.

Based on my conversations with other builders, I put together a list of parts that aren’t available.

1) Lime doors. Including car doors and lift doors.

2) A better ladder piece. The current ladders from Lego work great as ground ladders, but there hasn’t been a piece that works well as an aerial ladder

Megablocks makes one, but it’s too large and I would never buy their brand.

3) Minifig hazmat suits I think a rescue hazmat set with a rescue truck and minifigs would sell VERY well.

4) Flat windscreens in 6-wide. (Long been a problem for fire truck builders)

5) Please re-release this part in red. It’s going for as much as $20 on Bricklink.

Lego fire builders represent one on the larger sub-groups here and on Brickshelf. And Lego fire sets consistently show up on Lego Shop and Home’s top 25 sellers list.

Thanks for your consideration!

-Steven
