I am wondering if they simply might be taking an 'easy build' approach as they
did with last seasons large dump truck. "Easy build, quick play".
It doesn't really matter to me, though. I haven't built a lego set in quite a
long time and don't play with it. (I think the last set I built was the Maersk
ship & within a day or so I turned it and parts from many other Maersk ships,
into a Maersk blue 3 story building.)
Regarding these new sets however, as a purchaser of parts, I do not see the 3 x
1 curved slope in dark bley anywhere, which is disappointing. Though, I see
many white ones and the possibility of the white ones being 2 wide, making it a
new piece which would be fantastic. (see hospital set). It is very difficult to
tell though, they certainly could be 1 wide.
Thanks for pointing these sets out.
